thanx for the ideas! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
yes, love should be included. i have various characters with love issues. two of my characters are particularly tragic. amadeus is part of the quest group- the main characters, and he and meridia, a princess the group meets, fall in love. but meridia hears at one point that amadeus is dead and jumps from her castle tower and kills herself- but he isnt really dead. i might do a romeo and juliet and have him kill himself as well, or he might just be depressed for the rest of his life [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

ps. i also get jealous when characters get together, or become over-perfect. particularly the best guy getting the overly wonderful girl-hero/warrior, etc.
