Tess and Phoranin

• Phoranin was born on the 12th of Wanderers, 1895. Tessarael was born on the 1st of Others, 1991 ... not sure how reincarnation affects this ... [These are the 16th of Klarmont and 9th of Eirmont, respectively.]
• Phoranin likes purple and red. She won't wear gems, due to the religious significance.
• Phoranin likes Tess' hair short.
• Phoranin doesn't like Tess swearing, and said "Don't let it happen again."
• Tess kissed Phoranin three times early on in the relationship:
• once taking her hand after he was reincarnated in a gesture appropriate to Alphatian etiquette
• he kissed and hugged her after they appeared near Alphaks undead fleet island, and he said, "I love you, wish I'd gone first." (i.e. implying wish he had been the only one to die on going through the disc gate to Mystara.)
• kisses her hands when saying goodbye as he goes to Glantri. As she leaves he says, "May Rafiel guide your path," and quieter as she leaves, "And may Rafiel guide your troubled footsteps."
• After Tess' proposal they have kissed and hugged fairly often. :)
• Tess has given Phoranin:
• a beautiful flower he found while wandering with Remus [early 1012]
• a red dress [1012]
• left some moss patterns wrapped for Phoranin at the temple with her friend as Phoranin was on a quest for a soul crystal [22nd Nuwmont 1013]
• Phoranin did a sending to Tess ending "Love Phoranin" after this [about 11th Vatermont 1013]
• a red ribbon [early 1013, had carried it to Limbo, The Cage, and back!]
• a gold ring (100gp) [20th Yarthmont 1013]
• an excellent lace dress made by Jarandos Erewan (50gp) [18th Kladmont 1013]
• a silver ring (5gp) [2nd Flaurmont 1014]
• two mithral rings: Tess bought these in Sundsvall, having had them made especially for Phoranin. They were styled on two silver rings which she liked, neither of which Tess bought. He gave her the first ring on the 10th of Sviftmont 1014. He gave her the second ring later.
• [silver] You can have that for 50 Ag. Or you can have a silver ring with playing colours over it for 100 Ag, or one with colours that change with the wearer's mood for 125 Ag. They are magicaly enchanted not to tarnish, he cautions you not to be near a dispel magic.
• Mithril is certainly possible. Cost is 200 Ag for a thin ring. [Tess got decent sized ones for Phoranin! 800Ag] It wears very well, you can expect it to last for your lifetime. It isn't really affected by much like acid either. Sufficient heat will melt it, but it is more resistant than steel to that.
• a red steel bracelet
• a demure purple dress with red demure underwear (30gp), currently in Darokin deposit
• a purple spidersilk ribbon
• Tess took Phoranin out to dinner in the City of Stars after all the mess with Tess being set up as an assassin of Princess Tana de Lao was sorted out. Tess didn't think about the importance of this at the time: it was a public meeting between them, and Phoranin as a white shaman is well respected. (This occurred in early 1026.)
• Tess proposed to Phoranin around 1019.03.28.
• Tessarael and Phoranin were married on 1027/05/15 at the Temple of Rafiel in the City of Stars.
• A blessing with the Seekers was canceled on 1027/05/20 as several of the Seekers had been killed by Krikk and the Company of the Blue Eye.

• Phoranin was captured by a group of Alfheim elves underground, but escaped and killed them. It was from them that she heard about the crown.
• Tess has told Phoranin he is a member of the Second Shadow. It turns out she already knew this. In 1027 he told her that he was a member of the Eyes of the Serpent and she had had some suspicions about this.
