Do medieval shows only hire conventionally unattractive men? I always thought the convention was to have attractive people play important parts or “good” characters, regardless of gender, but admittedly I don’t really watch many medieval shows.
*Attractive evil villain enters scene*
“…they’re gonna get a tragic backstory and sacrifice themselves for some noble cause.” *3 seasons later*
“Oh goddamit.”
By “important or ‘good’ characters” I wasn’t trying to say “protagonists and morally good characters”, though there are certainly plenty of authors and directors who follow that rule.

Game did a good job of having the ugliest polish man with a pitchfork in the town…
Then the local alchemist has a dump truck ass with eyeliner on.
If you’re talking about my girl Keira Metz, she’s a witch, not a standard alchemist. Woman definitely engages in performance enhancing magic
Had to look up. Got alchemist and herbalist confused.
It was tomira. I did remember the ass lol
I looked her name up on google and half the images are indeed about said dump truck lol
I think the canon is that pretty much all witches do
