Ten Facts:

1. Though he will never admit it, Severin finds Laralita very attractive... physically. Mentally, he's thoroughly repulsed by her, so there's no danger of anything happening on that front.

2. Severin was born left-handed, but his father made him use his right hand as a child and the behavior stuck. He still finds his left hand stronger, though.

3. Privately, inspirational stories bore him.

4. Like most of the men in his family, Severin doesn't have a "type" when it comes to women. For a long-term relationship, he's more inclined to look for someone he finds intelligent, agreeable, and interesting; for random sexual encounters, he's not at all picky.

5. In spite of being something of a closet sex addict, he has so far managed to stay faithful to both of his wives.

6. Severin is in love with love. In his younger days, he once stalled an arranged wedding so that the bride could run off with her lover instead. He also once helped a couple of gay novice monks flee from a Dovian monastery.

7. Neither of his parents named him; his stepmother did. His mother also has another name for him, but refuses to tell him what it is.

8. He sometimes lies awake at night wondering how many descendants he must have by this point.

9. Severin's greatest fear is that his sons will end up like him. He keeps seeing signs and he finds that troubling.

10. On significant dates regarding Alina--her birthday, her death day, their anniversary--Severin finds himself reflecting on all those days she spent between pregnancies, hiding her misery. To this day, he wonders if he could have done something differently.


Notable Quotes:

Alina: I'm feeling a little restless; I suspect I'll have trouble sleeping tonight anyway.
Severin: Well, how about that? I'm feeling rather restless myself; maybe we should be restless together.
--from "In Which Alina Requests a Bedtime Story" (February 1156)

Alina: You men truly do believe the earth revolves around sex, don't you?
Severin: On the contrary, my love, the earth does not revolve around sex; it revolves because of sex.
--from "In Which Alina Requests a Bedtime Story" (February 1156)

"Well, wouldn't you know it? When I was a lonely bachelor, I never had any unannounced visitors of the feminine persuasion whatsoever, but now that I'm a happily married man, I'm finding young, beautiful women everywhere. How's that for irony?"
--upon finding Nora in his study, from "In Which Nora Scales Mount Olympus" (December 1156)

"Roderick, many a man in history has made the grave mistake of underestimating a woman. Don't become one of them."
--upon hearing Roderick's presumption of Geneva's death, from "In Which Roderick Gives the News" (February 1158)

Florian: If I didn't think [Norwan] would harm either [Thetis or her baby], I'd hope the baby's a girl.
Severin: I hope this isn't too bold of me, Florian, but if I didn't think he would harm either of them, I'd hope the baby is yours.
--from "In Which Severin Finds an Exception" (July 1158)

Laralita: Severin! My brother! I haven't seen you in years! It's been so dreadfully long!
Severin: Not nearly long enough.
--from "In Which Alina Gives the Worst Birthday Present Ever" (October 1158)
"Aren't you a little too pregnant to be moving furniture?"

--to Laralita, from "In Which Severin Is Pushed to His Breaking Point" (December 1158)"Practicing pyrokinesis? If so, I hear it's easier while snuggled up to one's husband."
--upon finding Alina staring at an empty fireplace, from "In Which Severin Finds the Damage Done" (October 1160)
