Puppetry is a sage field available to bards, depicting a form of theatre that involves the making and manipulation of puppets and other inanimate objects, to create a dramatic performance. A very ancient form of theatre, puppets are seen as objects in rituals and as symbolic artifices.
The field includes the following sage studies:
- Effigy (sage study): the practice of investing figures and objects with spiritual existence and divine substance, even bringing to life objects that are normally inanimate. Similar, but not the same as dweomercraft, but is related to the making of golems.
- Puppeteering (sage study): the practice of making a puppet appear alive, through various applications of strings, hands, the control of the space in which the puppet appears, diversion and mastery of the puppet’s movement.
- Puppet-making (sage study): the creation of an object, typically resembling something humanoid or alive, of various materials, that is designed to be manipulated by a variety of means.
