Princess Sarissa of Salamonis is a daughter of King Salamon LVII.[1] She was kidnapped on Seaday 3rd of Fire, 284 AC.[2]
In 285 AC, a marriage was arranged between the sixteen year old princess and Prince Barinjhar, the son and heir of King Pindar of Chalice, in order to formalise an alliance between the two kingdoms.[3] However, the prince opposed the alliance and arranged for Princess Sarissa to be abducted by the sorcerer Xortan Throg.[4] Sarissa made several unsuccessful attempts to escape from Throg. She was finally rescued and returned to Salamonis by a group of heroes who also discovered Barinjhar's part in the affair.[5]
Princess Sarissa is described as an attractive, blonde-haired young woman who is friendly and brave, although somewhat petulant.[6]
It is possible that, rather than Princess Sarissa being kidnapped on two separate occasions, the entry in The Fighting Fantasy 10th Anniversary Yearbook is a printing error and should read 285 AC. The yearbook contains at least three other possible errors with dates (page 46: 1774 AC instead of 1774 OT, page 99: 1661 OT instead of 1601 OT, and page 104: 1446 OT instead of 1464 OT, as well as possibly page 36: 402 OT instead of 1402 OT), so this would not be unique.
