Love and Marriage in v0.19 BETA

Alright, so. . .

My character was hit with a Magic Arrow, and ended up being forcefully wed to someone she didn't want to be wed to, in Usurper v0.19 BETA. My questions. . . Firstly, is there any sort of way to resist this sort of magic? Secondly, is there any sort of way you can Approach the person in the Love Corner and change your outlook towards them before devorce, and thirdly, can they (H)ave Sex with you regardless of where you're staying for the night, if they go home and select said option? My character has a very strong feeling of negativity towards men, thanks to a run-in with someone that knocked her up, then refused to give her the time of day from that point on, and once the arrow wore off, I planned to keep her that way.
Oh, and before I forget. . . How do you get the magic arrow thing to work? I've been to Spensor's, Lydia's, and all up and down a number of other places, but can't find anything that'd be obvious. . .

Ya know, despite your best efforts, I still understood that. I also understand that that, in no way, shape, or form answers my question. >_>;

Hi J,


1. You can't hide from the Love Arrow in the version you are playing, and not in the latest beta either. Maybe it should be possible to protect yourself from it. Have to consider this.
2. From Lovers Corner You 'approach' the char you want to change attitude towards. Here you can change attitude..and then divorce.

For brevity, herein I have sent my replies to Joseph via e-mail.

Charles - alterego of læhynê de ræpân

BTW-- Jakob, Is this perhaps a bug that one can send many Magic Arrows from the Birthday Gift menu?

Well, between Jakob and Charles, I've gotten my answers. However, there is still a problem or two remaining, tied in with this whole thing. Something rather annoying, I might add. Check this out. . .

Alright, so. . . In v0.19 BETA(yet again), I found an irritating little glitch. If you try to (A)pproach someone in the (L)ove Corner, but you're married to them, it tells you \"You are married to <character>! Have you already forgotten that? Go to your house and make your [husband] happy.\"(I'm playing a female character, in this case.) After that, said character ends up logged in as a Ghost(as does happen in intimacies, battles, etc.) and follows you around until you log out.(IE, the game says \"<Character> is here.\" wherever possible, where you are.) It's harmless, but rather spooky.
