Cause she says 'I'll remember that next time I'm hungary".
I did not know that she hath Hungurian. What an unattainable snippet of novelty.

She doesn't whine "omg daddy's a monster". That'd be idiotic, because she's a monster, too.

She whines about the fact that he's trying to pretty much end the world. I mean honestly, does nobody realize that without the sun everything will die out because of that thing we call the food web and energy pyramid? She takes the initiative to kill him because of this. But she's not like "OMFG I'M GONNA KILL YOU" nor is she like "I CAN'T KILL MY OWN FATHER YOU DO IT FOR ME" while hiding in a closet. She's in the gray, thus having characteristics.

I dunno man, she's a great.

Even though I agree with this, the sun is not like our sun, and the life forms to need the sun to survive.

I'm not at all interested in her as an in-game romantic prospect, I don't want to marry her or anything (in fact I haven't yet married anyone in Skyrim!) but she is a really good follower! And possibly the only person in the game so far who my character has any kind of friendship type relationship with. She is just more interesting than most of the bland followers in the original game.

See I would have loved something more nuanced and complex.

Something along the lines of you developing chemistry/trust with her, and you needing to kill her and her mother to prevent the prophecy from happening.

Blasphemy!!!! :biggrin:

How can you not like her in a romantic way? She actually has a relationship with your character.

That would have been cool as another option in the DLC, kind of like
Spoiler
actually being able to kill her and join Harkon. Since you can't do that in the DLC.

For one, i just in general hate anything that has to deal with Demons, Vampires espeically, so i am not a Serana lover, but, i gotta admit: she is very unique in many ways, her hair is...very nice, she's got a dang good voice and she in-dialogue gets very friendly toward you. Battle: great and powerful follower, loyal, and again her voice is...attractive. this is your asnwer: She's just meant to be a good NPC, In battle and by looks, she very Warry and sixy. Heck i hate her ilk with a blood red passion, but i prefer her following me.

Me? Marriage you ask? I want a bosmer Wife, or from DG: Sorine.

I'm a 40-something married woman, I'm beyond the point of hitting on anything with a pulse (or without a pulse, in Serana's case!)

I do really really like her as a follower, yes she has a relationship with my character, built upon going through trying times together - which is why I like her so much as a follower NPC and a friend - but please bear in mind that not all gamers are 15 year old boys, and we don't all need to have romantic relationships with random characters in video games in order to feel fulfilled. I just celebrated my 6th wedding anniversary yesterday btw! Now that is something to feel romantic about! I like Serana as a good friend, nothing more.

I was only joking, I just get that romantic vibe from her, but then friend zoned. I am a little insulted that you think I am in that stage of hitting on anything that has a pulse because I do not, nor am I 15, I am 19. But back on topic, I see a more romantic kind of bond, but that may just be because she is a vampire, and vampires are supposed to be seductive.

Well geez - I was hoping that if I got any response at all from that post, it would at least include a cursory "happy anniversary!" :P

Hello Everybody !

I don't get it , why people love Serana so much ?
I understand that she's the most "alive" character in the game , but why all these marriage requests and all that love ?

Really , personally I'd like the ability to kill her more than the ability to marry her..

What do you think ?

One of my characters would have loved the ability to kill her, she was such a nuisance, both mine left her at the respective faction headquarters and never want to see her again. Now they change it so we can kill her they might consider taking her on another adventure.

I am a bit older and definitely past the romantic stage. But Happy Anniversary Epona222. :)

I know but all the other threads are " Let us marry Serana " , " Why I can't marry Serana " , " Serana marriage "..
This one is something fresh at least.

I'm gonna be blunt, most people want the Seana marriage because they can't get any in real life and as such they want the ONE character who's good looking and who's empathic towards them as their LI. Not trying to offend but lets be realistic here, Serana as a LI would be nothing more then a gigantic fan service (and it wouldn't be justifiable given her history with temples), I mean if we start doing that lets just give all the females double Ds, blonde pig tails and super skimpy bikini armor and if you stand still long enough they'll start playing strip volleyball. Even better lets copy GTA and include a video camera and some totally inappropriate easter egg activities too.

P.S. THAT WAS SARCASM :P

My character is already married and in love with someone else. I see Serana as a close friend that I rescued from the clutches of Molag Bal and his tyranny. Though my character IS in an interesting situation:

- My character Aradal loves Mjoll the Lioness. He is aware that Serana has feelings for him, and is trying to find a way to put it gently. He's also aware of Aerin's coveting of Mjoll as well. Aradal holds no anger towards him for it, but he knows that sooner or later something is gonna have to give way.

- Mjoll is having a hard time knowing what the right thing to do is. She loves Aradal; this much is certain, but she can't bring herself to crush her former rescuers heart. And then there is Serana. There's definitely some tension between the two; even though Serana has been cured, she still practices the Dark Arts.

- Aerin can't let go of that feeling. The wedding between his love and that knight Aradal still stings. He's pushing himself beyond his limits. One time, when he heard that Mjoll was kidnapped by a Vampire, he brazenly stormed off to rescue her, only to once again be one upped by that arrogant Paladin.

- Serana admires what Aradal is; the light to her darkness. Yet she knows the reason why Aradal chose Mjoll over her is because of her dependance of the Dark Arts. The trip to the Soul Cairn didn't help either. If only he could see in other colors besides black and white, she says to herself.

I suppose even the great Dragonborn, Bane of Sithis/Molag Bal and future mantler of Talos can't avoid drama :biggrin:

Yeah, I suppose I shouldn't have tied in real world logic with TES logic. But still, no sun is very bad and she realizes that!

I think a vampire with your current avatar's look wouldn't go amiss; something to fill that rapacious daeva niche. Vampire lord vs. peroxide blond with supernatural speed, strength and allure. I'm not sure if I'd make Serana like that though.
