Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden SPOILERS
In her previous life, she was Vurnis, Ravisin, her sister, used Reincarnation spell on her, and she was born in the Feywild as a tiefling named Frostbite from two adventurers (both of whom were honestly freaked out because they didn't have a close relationship with demons, but they love the kid anyways). She grew up learning her mother's druid quirks, started traveling with them when she was old enough to defend herself, got into various situations with them and fairy companions, then one day saw a vision from her past life with Ravisin and decided she should find out what it was about.
Curse of Strahd Ask Prompt #13 because I always want to be up in everyone’s love stories 💕
Thank you for asking!
I find it funny how a lot of people answer on this question with: "we turned our game into a dating sim" with 1-2 PC's in a relationship.
In our campaign 4 out of 6 ended up in a relationship.
Short answer:
Murlok/Ez
Vi/Strahd
Moiraine/Kasimir
Milanyi/Escher

Long answer:
1.Murlok knew of Ez from RvR stories (she became a vampire spawn due to the fault of another PC) Once she was saved from Strahd's influence, Murlok bonded with her while coping with RvR death. They shared stories about the travels and slayings of the undead of Feywild and Shadowfell, their vampire-related backstories, and each gave the other tattoos. Most importantly, Murlok supported Ez during her suffering over her conversion to a vampire. In the end Ez became human again, and they decided to travel together in a wagon through other planes.
2.Oh boy! A separate post should be written about this. Firstly, there are a lot of similarities in the basis of their relationship: love for necromancy, similarities in the backstories (unintentionally), hypocrisy, hatred of thieves, bossing everyone around and more. (also chaotic evil PC) Secondly, I allowed my player to romance Strahd if she assembled Exodia (followed a lot of steps). And the mad lass did it!
(again this one has the most content and I will gladly write it down. But since,there are a lot of things to uncover I'll do it upon a request) At the end of the campaing Strahd is "alive" and he is going through 30 years of therapy.
3.Originally Moiraine fell for Rahadin, but after talking to him and meeting Kasimir she found out what a terrible person he is. While traveling with Kasimir she passionately learned from him about dusk elven culture (originally kenku, later turned into a dusk elf). After spending time together while traveling: Kasimir taught her new spells and she taught him how to swim, they fell for each other. She promised him that she would do anything to restore the Dusk Elves' legacy. But not everything was perfect. During a lust for power, she killed him and drank his blood, becoming a full-fledged vampire. After which she regretted it and risked everything to bring him back to life with a wish. The night before the final battle, they were married. At the end, she used her last wish and revived the extinct race, giving them a chance at a brighter future. (I used @old-world-bird 's design of Kasimir)
4.In the beginning, Escher was just lusting after the new boy in town, and so he hit on Milanyi. However, as they spent more and more time, Milanyi got into Escher's story and befriended him wholeheartedly. Milanyi liked his sense of humor, his courtesy, his charisma, but he also empathized with his moral turmoil and helped him deal with it. Escher was fond of Milanyi because, unlike Strad, he appreciated, loved, and respected him. When he learned that Milanyi had been killed, he managed to come to the freshly killed body and turned it. (Milanyi had previously made Asher a full-fledged vampire.) After showing Milanyi the world through his eyes, Escher made him a full-fledged bride. He remained a Strahd-simp, but he chose to share eternity with Milanyi instead.
I'm genuinely glad they found their halves and earned their endings.
A very old animatic from our first session. My player noticed how big Kass'es paws are in comparison to them. They decided to make this little cute dance.
It was simpler back then, they weren't dead traumatized by the harshness of Barovia.

Murlok, after he made her kill her love interest, tricked her and lied to her. Hates him to the core... And yet, she likes Escher and Vi, thus she is paying attention.
