Help[Games] Nyx' Choose-Your-Own-Adventure KUY CAF - Round 13 (Spouse 4 of 5)
Ok, the rules are pretty simple, I'll be providing two or more options, and you follow the "adventure" that suits you best. Each "adventure" will have it's own set of naming rules for that round. Stories are optional, but always enjoyed and encouraged :) Ages are optional, and you keep track of them yourself. I will not be killing off any family members in this game, but you may chose to do so yourself. Surnames and maiden names are not provided for in the prompts, but should be used in case they are referenced in future rounds. I'll provide links to each previous round, so you can quickly find your family.
Note: Just because your chose Adventure # in one round doesn't mean that you are stuck with that # for every other round. Each round you can chose your own adventure (hence, the name).

DC = Darling Child, or a first generation child. All other children are second generation.
If you wish, you may have a couple divorce in any round. If they divorce in round 7, they can remarry in the next spouse round.
This is the fourth of 5 "Spouse" rounds. After each spouse round there will be at least one child round. You may chose to have as many as 3 children marry, or as few as 0. Each child (twins/triplets being the exception) must use a different adventure to get married in. Twins/triplets may use the same adventure to get married in, or you may chose to split them up. If twins/triplets marry in the same adventure, that counts as 1 and you may still use the other two adventures on two other children.
If you are keeping track of ages, please advance your current family's ages by one+ year before adding new spouses(and even if you are not adding any new spouses).
Adventure 1:
Your DC is getting married! Everybody comments on how similar the two are. Some feel that being so alike is sure to cause a smooth and happy marriage. Other's feel that being so alike will cause all sorts of fights and end badly. Only time will tell...
Spouse: (--) You chose the age. Go to http://www.nymbler.com/ and type in DC's FN and MN as "Inspirations". Choose the spouse's gender, and click "Find Names". You may use the "More Names..." option twice (so you get to look at 3 pages of names). The Spouse's FN/MN MUST be one of the names listed in the first 3 pages of names. Respellings are okay, variations and alternate names are NOT okay.
Adventure 2:
Your DC is in, from what you can tell, a serious relationship. However, they say they will never get married, as they don't believe that it makes a difference one way or the other. Your DC's boy/girlfriend's parents were both English majors and both come from well-to-do families. The boy/girlfriend just wants to be his/her self and not have to feel like the black sheep of the family any more.
BF/GF: (20-25) You can chose the age from the range listed. His/her FN is from Shakespeare, but is not common among names used today. His/her MN1 honors a poem from a notable poet, and his/her MN2 honors a story from a notable novel/writer from the early 20th century or before.
Adventure 3:
Your DC is getting married, and you would really rather they didn't. The ceremony will be at sundown in an old graveyard. The spouse is "Goth" and your DC has been dressing and acting the same since they met. Other then the tendency towards a sarcastic and dark view of life, the spouse seems to be a nice person. However, you can't get passed the dark clothes, hair, nails and (most especially) name. The spouse claims that they don't have any family, but your DC told you in confidence that they have broken off all contact due to extreme abuse when s/he was a child. Part of breaking off all contact with his/her family included legally changing his/her name.
Spouse: (--) You chose the age. His/her FN/MN(s) are all goth. (Here are some references: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goth_subculture and here are some names to get you started: http://www.namenerds.com/uucn/goth.html).
Note: Just because your chose Adventure # in one round doesn't mean that you are stuck with that # for every other round. Each round you can chose your own adventure (hence, the name).
