A Ring related question
How many people here own a white gold wedding band? And of those that do, how many are actually married?
On that note, has anyone bought or made any covenant related "props" of any type?
(BTW, For those who're interested, I've just this minute finished reading White Gold Wielder! Huzzah!)

My wedding ring contains white gold, but is not entirely such. I doubt I would have known such a thing existed if not for SRD, but that's not why I chose it. I just generally prefer a "silvery" look than regular gold, and the pattern (involving alternating bands of white and yellow gold) was way cool.

Don't give up! It has to work eventually.MrKABC wrote:However, my numerous attempts to get any white fire out of the ring all ended in failure...
(I have one, though it's not inscribed. Neat idea. And no, I'm not married.)

An eminently reasonable position. Books are nice and all, but real folks come first.SalotHSaR wrote:It was my intent to buy one but alas we went with platinum instead. I guess I changed my mind somewhere along the way. White gold fades pretty badly from what I hear. I decided that I should be romantic with my wife instead of a book.

Nope. If it means something to you you are much more likely to value it and what it represents.clenchedwolf wrote:lol for my sins i got married with a white gold ring....it was my only request for the wedding....lol

Mine is yellow and white gold. Mostly white with a yellow patern through the center of the band. No wild magic yet. I do wish I had inscribed "Be True" in it like CovenantJr has. I wanted solid white gold of course but I had to compromise. My wife has since read TCTC and wishes I had been more persistant in convincing her to get white gold. She's a bigger geek about it than I am now. The only time she ever curses it's "hellfire and bloody damnation".

I got married last year. My wife and I both have white gold rings, each of them has 5 diamonds embedded in them - thanks to her late Grandmother for those. White gold looks cooler than yellow gold (especially with the diamonds), and it reminds me of Covenant, and his loyalty to Joan, whenever I look at it.
On a related note, I was still finishing up my re-read of the Chronicles, getting ready for Runes when we went on our honeymoon last year. The One Tree is forever linked to our honeymoon in my mind now.
I don't mention the connection to my wife though, as she finds SRD's writing to be "pretentious". *sigh*
No other Covenant related props, although if the Covenant movie is ever made, I'd love to keep the Staff of Law as a souvenir.
