So, I created a #Vampire from #ImperialChina as an #NPC for #VampireTheRequiem.
She's so old, she grew up during the time of #footbinding, which for reasons no one knows, stayed unchanged after her #Embrace. As a result, she is bound in a wheelchair and covers her feet with #prosthetics.
I do NOT regret making this npc, but I both RUE and LAMENT doing an image search for foot binding. My advice, don't do that, it's NASTY.
AO THROWBACK - Today, there are few women remaining in China with bound feet, so Hong Kong-based photographer Jo Farrell set out in 2014 to capture the last traces of this ancient practice. https://www.ancient-origins.net/news-general/photographer-captures-last-traces-ancient-tradition-foot-binding-001738

"Het is traditie." Dat is geen rechtvaardiging. Het is een excuus.
