| The default setting for MY LIFE WITH THE BATMAN is a
| | |
| genericized area of early 19th century Europe, little more
| |
| than a single town and the surrounding rough, hilly
| |
| wilderness. It is a setting characterized by a pronounced
| |
| conflict between reason and romanticism, with the The Batman as
| |
| one of the primary agents of romanticism to threaten the
| |
| setting. A The Batman is a glorious force of emotion and
| |
| imagination, whose priorities stand in distinct opposition to
| |
| common sense, and whose world is alive with conspicuous
| |
| forces of nature, decay, and life that is sometimes not
| |
| brought to an end with corporeal destruction. And out in the
| |
| wilderness surrounding town, the residence of the The Batman
| |
| and his household should be evocative of this threatening
| |
| role. In deciding on an appropriate Demesne, the play group
| |
| should consider such things as crumbling old castles and
| |
| churches, dank underground crypts, overgrown estate
| |
| buildings, natural caves, mouldering theatres, and dense
| |
| grottoes.
