Which NPC would you marry, if it was possible?

Pyrodinium Posts: 639 1/28/2016	I'm glad a lot of people are open for having Masters as their companions.

Rupho Schartenhauer Posts: 787 1/29/2016	July (from the Exceptional Story) was definitely the most attractive woman I've seen in FL so far... sigh ----------------------- edited by Rupho Schartenhauer on 2/25/2016 -- Rupho Schartenhauer has killed a Master, well: most of it. Cortez the Killer has killed a Master, definitely. Deepdelver has become the progenitor of London's brightest star. It's... complicated. Dr. Kvirkvelia, gone NORTH on 23/12/1894.

Ember Posts: 52 1/29/2016	There's two in particular I've been holding out for for a loooong time: the Barbed Wit, who I enjoyed the most out of all the characters I've had a chance to romance, and the Last Constable, who is one of the only genuinely good people I've met in the Neath. At the very least, I'd like a chance to help out the Last Constable more. -- http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Ember~Keelty

Ridagoth Posts: 86 1/30/2016	While I am not into the marriage aspect in the Neath at this time, I figure this might be a relevant thing to bring up as another way to admire some of the NPCs in Fallen London. I recently checked out this thread made about a year ago about landing pages for various NPCs (implemented even earlier). So, if any of them made the cut for your admiration, you can log in with their picture to the left instead of the exceptional hat. As soon as you log out, the exceptional hat takes it's place on the page again. Here is the thread: http://community.failbettergames.com/topic7630-fallen-london-landing-pages.aspx Heads up: Just focus on the ones with art as the opening post listed in the thread! Heed the warnings if you go beyond that. I found so many of the choices people said very amusing thus far, it was practically like reading something in Mr Pages’ Fabularities. Nice work! -- Ridagoth-A Midnighter who forgets more than usual with Irrigo clinging to them...

Rysiek Posts: 693 1/30/2016	I would appreciate the last constable. Or the masters. The quiet deviless not,but that one from playing with soul could be nice. -- The silesian Detective http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Rysiek The incredible Warsovian. She certainly didn't steal your diamond necklace. That idea is RIDICULOUS... http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Maria~Konstantynopolska The silesian vengeance seeker http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Agata~Grym I apologize for any and all anachronisms. I am too lazy to check some facts if I am sure they are from the 1890s or sometimes think they are. Oh, and by the way, I am not polish, I am GERMAN to clarify for heavens sake... tylko po polsku mowie. Um Himmelswillen...

Guest 1/31/2016	(the truthseeker) When I was ensouled and cared about love beyond my murdered wife, only one presence ever made me almost proclaim my love, and it wasn't any Royalty or Smulggler. This character had fun, played by her own rules and shoved it to this city's Enforcers. She cared about what we do and not who we are. She almost...almost made me print a very special edition, but I was...pragmatic as usual. If I ever care enough for another and regain empathy again, I wish to marry The Kashmiri Princess! mutters b..th..o...em! (it's hard to understand that mutter, but you swear it sounded like "both of them!")

Rackenhammer Posts: 354 1/31/2016	My main is happily married, but there are a few options that I wish were open for my alts: The Jovial Contrarian. No one's mentioned him yet, but if you're fond of arguing and making up, there's no better candidate in London! The Turkish Girl, and I see I'm not alone in this one. We're all immigrants of sorts down here, after all. The Sardonic Music-Hall Singer, the Repentant Forger, or even the Wry Functionary. You get a much deeper engagement, in terms of actually getting to know who they are, with them than any of the current crop of NPC spouses. True, it may cheapen the idea that there are more types of love than the romantic, and true friends are hard to come by in the Neath in any case. Still, the thought had to have crossed most of our minds at some point. -- "DO NOT TRUST HAPPY ENDINGS. DO NOT FEAR SAD ENDINGS... NEITHER ARE ENDINGS." ~ Mathieu Psmith: The Bard of Lost Children, loving husband, and a fixture of the artistic set. Can never resist making a show of things...

Professor Strix Posts: 616 3/23/2016	Can I marry to a job? Because I would love to get engaged to mine. It's sexy, and it doesn't complain if I don't give it a gift in the Feast of the Exceptional Rose. -- The Inescapable Professor, London's Most Academic Detective. Open to consultation from Mondays to Fridays, above the Silver Binding bookshop, Veilgarden. Half the payment in advance, half after closing the case. No refunds.

absimiliard Posts: 759 3/23/2016	I must admit my character totally has a crush on the Turkish Girl. That turn of ankle as they kick off a morel and race past my character to win at Shroom Hopping is just . .. . But if they could marry any NPC they'd marry their Starveling Cat.

Loon Posts: 379 3/23/2016	So many, so many... For Krawald: the Kashmiri Princess, the Pirate-Poet, or the Widow. Surprised nobody has mentioned the Widow yet. For Loogan Cuthoat: the Cheery Man, the Cat's Chiefest Claw (would love to get to know her better) or Sinning Jenny. He got to know her a little better through the Nemesis ambition. For Ally Mooney: the Jovial Contrarian or the Revolutionary Firebrand. -- My main character Krawald can be found at http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Krawald and welcomes all social actions bar photographers. My alt Loogan Cuthoat can be found at http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Loogan~Cuthoat and welcomes all social actions bar cats and photographers. My alt Ally Mooney can be found at http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Ally~Mooney and welcomes all social actions including patronage, though they are a bit confused by cats in boxes.

Cthonius Posts: 362 3/23/2016	I still have many more npcs to meet that I'll no doubt be enamored with, but far and above The Last Constable. I'm saddened there's no more to her story, barring as a Feast companion. And speaking of Feast companions I do have a fondness for the Canny Costermonger and the Presbyterate Diplomat -- Cthonius, gone North. Gone.

Victoria Astra Ludlow Posts: 26 3/31/2016	The Revolutionary Firebrand, hands down favourite. The Barbed Wit certainly made a lasting impression. February, maybe. I seem to like them revolutionary and slightly mad. -- Please contact Victoria Astra Ludlow, The Rebellious Flâneuse, a Glasslady and Insurgent for compulsory nanty narking.

Hark DeGaul Posts: 208 3/31/2016	Why settle for just marrying a Master? I say we should all marry the Bazaar. Sure, we're not as pretty as the sun, but let's face it the Bazaar isn't getting any younger. (S)he should really just settle down with a nice city and its entire population instead of pining after a celestial body. More seriously I'd probably go for the Sardonic Music Hall Singer, the Once Dashing Smuggler or maybe the Affectionate Devil if I wasn't certain he just wanted me for my soul. I have a soft-spot for the Melancholy Curate as well, but I don't think it would work out. edited by Hark DeGaul on 3/31/2016 -- The Dawn-Eyed Optician: http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Hark%20DeGaul That Vicar Who Ruined the Royal Wedding for Everyone (including himself): http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Hebediah%20Fix The Dreaded Relative: http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Your%20Aunt

Sam Stephens Posts: 73 12/7/2016	A lot of intriguing answers here! Not many I'd have considered myself. I guess that sort of speaks to my perception of games and my acceptance that some characters are "romanceable" and others as "non-romanceable" entities, rather than as living characters within a universe. This discussion seems to have opened my mind a bit. Thanks, all! While my character certainly has a wandering eye (which wandered too far and cost him his soul), I do really like the Celebrated Artist's Model. She's intelligent enough that she saw I was initially only interested in the secrets she knew, wise enough to dump me after that realization, self-sufficient enough to carve out a career in the arts while I studied the Correspondence, and forgiving enough to accept me after some courtship. She's more than a mere object of desire, she's clever and independent, and has as much agency in the relationship as the player character. The fact that the relationship developed over several months of real time added to the immersion for me. As I mentioned, my character also harbors some affections for other characters: The Quiet Deviless has an attractive mystique about her, but I very much resent her now that she's taken my soul and left me behind. I feel duped, and I intend to retrieve my soul to teach her a lesson. The Music Hall Singer has an attractive intelligence much like the Artist's Model, and I've been tempted to advance our friendship to a condition of intimacy, but after my last affair ended with the theft of my soul, I've decided to stay committed to my spouse. And the Turkish Girl is very attractive too. I imagine she's a fount of interesting conversation, being from a faraway country and having such an exotic profession.

I don't want to encourage you... but perhaps this one? http://fallenlondon.wikia.com/wiki/Midnight_Matriarch By the way, I was completely mistaken with regards to the Matriarch's species! Having only seen the portrait at a glance from far off, I'd assumed she was an owl. I now see my error. Thanks for correcting me, Kittenpox! -- Hello, delicious friends! I can be found here: http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Sam%20Stephens I'm open to all non-menacing social actions. I particularly enjoy a good mystery.
