I imagine it may also be taken for Eternal Bonds of brotherhood, for example, or loyal friendship as well... you know, all that kind of relationships that includes love but no sexual exchanges. In this latter case, I can already think of a couple characters among my roster that may exchange Eternal Bond with their respective loyal adventuring partners. To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect. "What makes a strong character is how they deal with their flaws, their fears, their turmoils, their troubles that get in the way. That's what makes them relatable." -- N.C.

At one point in time the benefits of this system had sample art calling for Marriage outfits... Lalafells are people! Not food (except to every single enemy that isn't man)

AND LO, THE FIRST LALAFELL WALKED THE PLANET I think there was a thread that started to go on in the forums about what actual differences there were between the races. Different species vs whatnot. MAGIC AND SORCERY. LALAFELL ARE MAN OK.

At first they weren't even going to allow Same Sex Marriage, stating their home country wouldn't like it (In around about way) but you know, slap a new name on it and pretend it's something else, people stop freaking out so much ("Civil Unions") ~~☆.~ Armi Alliando-Muramasa~.★~~ ~~.★~~ Journal~~☆.~~ *Pop Idol status pending.
