Wandering Souls Challenge for TS3

Heeey so I made another challenge. Might be the last one I ever make who knows. But I got inspired by the Postcard Legacy for TS4 and made something similar but not similar to it. It took a minute to make but I hope you enjoy

Wandering Souls Challenge is a 10 generation legacy challenge where you go through multiple jobs and careers with story elements involved. This is a challenge if you don't wanna do just one career all of your sims life and don't mind moving around + mild drama but not soul shattering.

Tag: "wandering souls challenge" or "@" me

Rules:

I didn't really make any but don't feel obligated to do everything as an objective. Somethings you probably aren't going to get to everything and that's okay. If you do everything congratulations, if you don't move on.

I have no designated way to play this (ex: what town do you recommend in playing with this), I'm giving the player what they want to do within the confines of this challenge. It's your sandbox not mine.

You do have some optional goals for extra fun if you choose to do so.

Have fun

Carry On Wayward Son

When you were young, you didn’t take anything as serious as your music. Your obsession with the chords became as necessary as breathing and you’ll do anything but sell your soul to the industry. But as you grew older and had a family, you wish for more structure with your music in hopes for it to reach the people that desperately need to hear it. So you find an indie record company and work with them because your artistic freedom is still the forefront of why you’re doing all of this. Plus feeding your family and paying the bills.

2. Jeffrey Jeffrey Simzos

If the Grinch and Scrooge had a love child, it would be you. You couldn’t really get behind your parent’s idealistic dreams about music and art, it felt unstable and unrealistic to you. You want wealth and power at your fingertips and anyone at your beck and call. Whether its through a wealthy spouse, your boss, the corporate ladder, or getting into politics, you will reach the top.

3. Yes Chef

Because excellence was required of you as a child, you tend to have a strong work ethic and unrealistic expectations for yourself and others while despising what you had to endure in your upbringing. The one good thing out of it was discovering your love of cooking. Cooking was a way for you to escape your worries and as an adult you desire to be a chef, going against everything your parents raised you with. You started from the bottom and found your way all the way at the top as head chef. But something is missing and so you explore other cultures and find new excitement in nectar making. You figure when you retire, you wanna spend the rest of your days being a nectar maker on a giant farm in the countryside.

You’re a closeted hopeless romantic who always wished to find their soulmate and have a family, but being a professional athlete with a recognizable face has made it difficult for you to find true authentic love.

Curiosity killed the cat or in your case it just made you curiouser. You couldn’t keep your hands still and always have to be tinkering with something. So much so that you lost your beloved job at the science lab because you kept goofing around with some scrap from the town’s junkyard during company hours. No worries, you just decided to go all in with being a self made inventor and creating gizmos and gadgets the world has never seen before. Except one day, you find a mysterious device you’ve never seen before and upon activating it, you end up in the future. There are alot more prettier machines than the ones you’ve been messing around with and you sorta take one home with you. Oh well what’s the worst that can happen.

7. Who You Gonna Call?

This generation can be played in two different ways. The choice is up to you. (Also double heirs can be accepted for this gen)

Super Skeptic Route:

The question you’ve always asked yourself was “Are Ghosts Real?” You believed in the supernatural, the horror stories, and the abduction of Bella Goth and was hoping to find evidence in the graveyards. But alas you could never find your ghosts and your dreams were crushed. Now as an adult, you’ve become a skeptic and believe it all to be a charade and try to speak sense into the “sheep” around you to see the light. Until one day you do encounter a ghost and for the last time, you investigate into the question, “Are Ghosts Real?”.

Objectives:

Work in a graveyard in your teen years

Have the Supernatural Skeptic trait.

You dabble in Alchemy but it never takes effect on you.

You convince Ghosts to move on/ Set them free rather than have them experiment on by the science lab (avoid opportunities that say otherwise)

Do all investigations (spirit invasion, paranormal investigation, poltergeist haunting, ghostly presence, angry ghost invasion)

Ultra Fan Route:

As a child, you always found yourself interested in what couldn’t be reasoned or argued against, the supernatural. You obsessed over horror stories, wandered into graveyards, deep subreddits of conspiracies behind Bella Goth’s abduction and studied too many ways to become one. You started to give up hope of ever becoming one. Until one day you befriend a fellow occult member of society and it changed your life forever.

8. Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

Being a doctor was something you always thought you wanted to be. It came with status, notoriety, respect, money, student loans, and it was something more stable than what your parents were able to give you. You worked hard and got into the Medical career where you met your spouse and lived in a beautiful home with your two kids and pet. It’s like everything worked out in the end. But your desire to see the world burn just keeps rearing its ugly head and you can no longer contain the person you thought you repressed for so long. It desires the status and respect you’ve obtained but also infamy, underlings, and power.

Solving crimes and digging through trash got exhausting and difficult as you try to serve others yet the system kept letting you down. After having a midlife crisis, You’ve come to realize that helping people can be simple, enjoyable, and have a great ocean view.

10. Master of None

Oh the journey you have been on. From caring about the music to fighting robbers in people’s homes, you’ve been through it all. As you worked hard for what you wanted, You have reached this crossroad and wonder what it all means and what it meant before. Maybe discovering yourself is what the journey is all about or maybe it's the experiences that shape you that gives you your form. Regardless, you’ve been feeling torn about what to do now and with no destination, maybe you start to express who you truly are. Who knows. There is no rush in the process or a destination in sight, only the curiosity that keeps your soul wandering on the journey.

Previous / Next Beginning (Gen 8)

Image transcripts (PT):

Carla: Eu vinha desconfiando sobre isso, mas conforme eu ia passando um tempo com essa coisa, fui tendo certeza. Só camuflar esse dispositivo não é o suficiente pra me enganar.

Touma: Você tem tanta certeza nas palavras... Como sabe? Não me diga que é uma profissional em identificar androides.

Carla: Não sou... Mas se fosse mesmo a Yuna, ela nunca teria aceitado estar no mesmo ambiente que eu.

Carla: Eu já desliguei ela, então vamos continuar a busca!

Touma: A Yuna verdadeira, ela...

Carla: As vítimas supostamente estão aqui, não é?! Então iremos achá-la eventualmente.

Aqui está, temos uma sala interessante para olhar agora. Diferente das outras, essa parece ter o foco direto nos androides.

Braços mecânicos, corpos em construção, cabeças mecânicas também foram encontradas. De todos os lugares que pisamos, esse deve ser um dos mais importantes até o momento.

Olhem minuciosamente para cada detalhe e cada arquivo. A sala em questão parece ser onde produzem os androides, então é aqui que tudo começa.

Os androides, assim como qualquer outro robô, são feitos para uma missão específica. Eles seguem ordens à risca e têm comportamentos exatamente como determina o seu criador. Mas qual o papel dos Androides de Vista Hermosa?

Os androides de Vista Hermosa são produzidos para que imitem o comportamento humano o mais real possível, mas até mesmo para eles existe um limite. Afinal, há comportamentos, expressões e pensamentos que somente humanos podem reproduzir com exatidão.

É aí que entram os moradores de Vista Hermosa! Apesar de ser um bairro bem exclusivo, existem pessoas de classes sociais variadas, entre elas a baixa e média renda. Pessoas que saem do interior ou outros lugares para tentar uma vida melhor e encontram o paraíso em Ciudad Enamorada.

Todo o luxo pode deslumbrar, bem como a qualidade de vida e a remuneração podem enganar. Logo, as dívidas começam a chegar e você precisa garantir que ficará naquele lugar.

É assim também que surgem os "voluntários". Pessoas que achavam que haviam mudado de vida, gastaram mais do que deviam e, para garantir o pão na mesa e a permanência em Vista Hermosa, aceitavam a proposta dos Harringtons em se tornarem voluntários nos experimentos.

Mas elas não imaginam que, quando chegam aqui para o primeiro teste, é improvável que voltem para suas casas novamente. Ao invés disso, um androide é mandado algum tempo depois. Uma prática que vem sendo aplicada há muitos anos e que agora conta com uma população inteira de androides em Vista Hermosa.

Os androides não eram apenas cópias. Eles estavam ligados às pessoas reais. Não só replicavam seus rostos e vozes, mas usavam as mentes humanas como centrais de comando.

Esses androides não eram só substituições; eram parasitas. As vítimas estavam sendo usadas como marionetes em um teatro grotesco. Seus corpos estavam ali, mas suas vidas estavam do lado de fora, caminhando pelas ruas como cascas artificiais, controladas por fios invisíveis.

Vista Hermosa era um experimento. Uma simulação controlada. Um campo de testes onde os androides, ligados às consciências humanas, podiam se infiltrar e se comportar exatamente como pessoas de verdade. Mas aquele não era o objetivo final. Não. Era apenas o primeiro passo.

Os Harringtons não estavam apenas criando cópias perfeitas das pessoas. Eles estavam treinando suas criações para algo muito maior: dominar o poder sem serem notados. Os alvos não eram cidadãos comuns. Eram figuras estratégicas: empresários, líderes de opinião, políticos. E o mais grotesco de tudo? Os políticos sabiam.

Eles não só aprovavam o projeto como colaboravam com ele. Vista Hermosa era um ensaio geral, mas o plano real era substituir governadores, senadores, presidentes. Quando uma dessas figuras atingisse um cargo de poder, não seria mais a pessoa real comandando; seria o androide, controlado pelos Harringtons, obedecendo suas ordens. Um fantoche perfeito.
