Gen 01: Eira Thyme (Snow White) p2

BEHOLD: PINK UNDERTONES

I kept her body basically

okay so i feel like her first outfit doesn't super reflect her as much but i feel like her variety holds on to old and new elements so meh, im less bothered by it.

Okay SO, im still iffy on the details but THE GIST: Eira Thyme grew up to wealthy parents in a wealthy household. Something happens when she comes of age (i said gist, idk what to do with that yet) and runs off. After much travel, finally thinking she's safe, she sets herself up in a cottage in the middle of the woods (details of how she gained this cottage uncertain yet). She lives nearby a community that's farther out, but she's generally alone. Here, in the cottage core dreams she lives off harvests, her main income crops she grows and sells to the village, and gaining resources and social interactions from them in return. She likes the village but also likes the company of her animals, the wildlife that surrounds her and the livestock she takes care of. But she's still used to living a wealthy life so when she realizes how to get profits from living with the land she does tend to splurge a little on having a nicer "cottage" and nice clothing. She's pretty cut off from any electronics however, not really missing them when she's plenty to do.

here, having her children does mean that she gets more hands to help her out LMAO.

but anyways, some meta things: i gave her to represent the color yellow (because of disney dress) but now she skews more gold (main clothing). She's still pretty yellow. She has cottage core clothing but i tried to make it more "farm". I had simple living on her lot so i ended up doing livestock of chickens and a cow unintentionally when i originally wanted to have her more as a gardening powerhouse :p it happens. I had her in the botanist career until her children moved out because money ;; __ ;; but we're pretending she was kinda more isolated than that.

Her new traits were now Good (in the sense she likes to try to do the right thing, feels way more guilt that most people would at doing anything considered "wrong" but does get up a little on her high horse sometimes), cheerful, but now noncommittal (the fathers thing). During game play, she's active (i have her going on jogs and nature walks) and her rowdy kids got her involved in their fitness, high energy shenanigan's.

She's also paranoid because of the amount of thundering in henford but i think it fits since she ran away. She's paranoid about her bad luck dragging her past back, and in general more overprotective of her children. Motherly behavior (my mom influence maybe). I think this makes her wanting children the most logical part, her being lonely up in her cottage a good motivator for her to find connection, whether it be a platonic, romantic, sexual, or familial connection, she's craving anything because she's so alone. I think her fear might also be keeping her in that lonely cottage as well. Either way, i think it makes for interesting story :3

She's also now an overachiever. I think this is was actually a boon for story telling (even if its annoying when ur character is immortal and u have to cheat her skills down so she feels accomplished. In the real world there's never a "maxed skill", you find new ways to do things you already do). I like to think, as Eira is the founder, a lot of what her descendants get from her is their tenacity and drive. A lot of the later characters a pretty intense, even if that intensity isn't like, the best. She has a lot of descendants i call "genius"s even iif they're probably gonna get debuffed so it's not like her lineage is known for producing incredible people. But im telling a story about these people so as a younging playing as if maxing out sims was the end all b all, they're all too overpowered ;; __ ;;. but before Eira was just there, now she's like the catalyst. Doing her best and a drive to keep trying her best at whatever she decides to do. In this case its human connection and surviving comfortably. Hence literally learning how to grow crops over years of getting tips from the village and the wildlife even if she was a rich girl who never had to live on her own before.

Anyways here some outfits. Not all of them, but a few ones i think kinda go with what im trying to do. I was aiming for kind of cottage core at first, but there's some outfits to show some more "wealth" and some of when she's out working on her fields/animals. For most of her outfits i was trying to keep them not that form fitting (for her day to day) but like, that last one got away from me i think she just looked too good in it, ranch vibes.

I was trying to keep a feminine vibe because Eira was always a pretty feminine character from the beginning, since i really always focused more on her role as mother. When i started playing with her i almost immediately went looking for men to have these 7 children with lmao so she was a mother pretty early on. I think having her defined as "raising kids" make me forget to try to flesh her out as a person too tho.

Im way happier with her characterization now. :3 but i loved her even when she had no personality but confusing actions, so im way biased.

You find love, but when your wife is giving birth to your baby, she dies (your sim could be a woman and you use cheats to make her pregnant and if you don’t use mods as RPO/Pandasama you can also cheat to kill the sim).

The Solar System Legacy Challenge: Accomplishments Gen 1 pt.75

The night Kason and M made up, Beckett never stopped by or called. M had sent him a text but didn't think much of it when he didn't respond, concluding that the date had either been really good or was another one to file with the growing list of failed dates Beckett had been on.

The next day was a free day for most of the Gratz household besides Kason, who had work. He spent the morning tending to the plants in the garden, it was secretly his baby. He had planted and nurtured every plant that grew there. Recently he decided reluctantly to leave Spirit to take over caring for the garden while he focused on work. There was a promotion coming up and with his outstanding performance, he was hoping to secure it by the end of the weekend.

M, on the other hand, had gotten the kids fed, dealt with a squabble between Venus and Aphrodite, who seemed to constantly be at each other's throats, settled them into their own individual activities, and decided she was feeling creative. For the cosmic duo, the storm was mostly behind them, which was ironic considering a huge thunderstorm was rolling into the Bay.

M was supposed to take Aphrodite to Chestnut Ridge that same Saturday but she'd gotten a call Friday night from the Ranch instruction. They'd been forced to cancel all horseback riding lessons due to the storm. The Weather channels were predicting it would be 4-days long. Dite had been looking forward to this trip all week it was all she'd talked about before school or during dinner. She had jam-packed all her free time after school and violin practice reading equestrian books or watching the Pony up Kids Channel whenever Venus wasn't hogging the Livingroom tv playing video games.

(Call takes place Friday night)

When M took the call Dite had shadowed her every move. M had paced the span of the first floor, trying to get something worked out.

M: We had classes set up for tomorrow afternoon. Yes. I understand. No, no thank you that's fine. The last weekend works just as well. I really appreciate that. Thank you again. Bye.

She'd barely removed the phone from her ear when Dite jumped her.

Aphrodite: So?!

Ishtar was in the living room watching the continued news coverage. It droned on about the strange 4 day storm affecting Chestnut Ridge but moving quickly into other areas like Evergreen Harbor and Henford-on-Bagley.

M: *sighs* Here's the deal. It's not raining here yet, but the thunderstorm is already in Chestnut Ridge and should start here later today. They don't think it's safe to take the horses out.

M was internally holding her breath. Aphrodite's' response was unexpected for any 7-year-old girl but Dite was special.

Aphrodite: That's okay Mom. I don't want any of the Horses or their babies to get hurt. The horses don't really like the thunder and the lightening.

M was in awe of her daughter and how mature she'd become despite her young age. M rewarded her with spectacular news.

M: Well I spoke with the owner Byron and he booked us for a weekend, to give you personal lessons and he's agreed to do indoor and outdoor lessons. That will give you more riding range and if the weather doesn't hold up they won't have to cancel again.

Aphrodite lit up.

Aphrodite: I get 2 days of riding lessons?

M cherished moments like these, when she could make her children happy and they looked at her with admiration and love.

M: Hmm, yes you get two days of private lessons from Byron himself. We'll get to stay in a hotel and try the local food. But, you're not upset we can't go tomorrow?

M asked wanting to snuff out the guilt she felt at the possibility of disappointing Dite. She had made Dite a promise and she'd wanted to keep it.

Aphrodite: Are you kidding this is awesome! I can't believe I get to take private lessons and sleep in a hotel! Can I call and tell Kelsey? Oh, and Mom, can we still buy me my own riding gear, please?

Her begging was unnecessary. M wasn't the type of parent that said no.

M: After school on Tuesday we can go shopping deal?

Dite jumped up and down too excited to express her agreement with words.

M: I'll take that as a yes. Go on, go call Kelsey.

Having taken care of that the day before, with no other plans M settled into her office to finish the remaining chapters of The Court of Slumbering Fae. Her deadline was coming up and she didn't want to give Takara a reason to come down on her. She was already working overtime dealing with the media. She'd gotten the photos removed and was working on Mercurys slander case against the reporters who had taken Paris' false information and tried to spread it like wildfire. Luckily Takara was like a tsunami, she was known for putting out fires immediately and would take out anyone who stood in her path to get it done.

Zohreh on the other hand was having a rough day. Lately, he'd been clingy and Kason was the parent of his unwavering affection at the moment. So when Kason left for work later that afternoon it was no surprise he threw a tantrum. He stood by the front door crying his heart out till Ishtar came over to comfort him.

Ishtar: Zoh what's the matter?

Zohreh: Dadaa w-weave Zohweh!

Ishtar: Come here Zoh. It's okay Daddy's coming back. I'm going to change. You go wait in the office with Mommy and then when I'm dressed we can play! Okay?

He kissed his brothers forehead and walked him to the office then went to change. Once inside he quickly found trouble. M paused her writing to interrupt his destructive search.

M: Zohreh? Can Mommy help you find something?

He trained his soft green eyes on her and pouted.

Zohreh: No. I wait for Ishtaw to pay.

His pale green eyes and curly blond hair made her think of his adult double. It warmed her heart to see so much of Kason in her youngest son, consider the triplets seemed to favor her with their dark hair and moss green eyes. Ishtar had taken on her exotic Tomarang coloring while the girls were fairer toned like their father.

M: How about some company while you wait.

She joined him on the floor as he babbled about Dada, his toys, and his favorite (and only brother) Ishtar until his mood lightened. Ishtar returned and took Zohreh out front to play, leaving their mom to work.

The afternoon passed by uneventfully after that. The kids kept busy while M worked on her book, until Spirit had summoned everyone from their respective activities to have lunch. At 7pm Kason returned home to find Spirit reading on the porch. He greeted her before heading inside to find all the kids gathered in the entryway helping Ishtar complete his school project.

Kason: Hey guys. Where's your mom?

Triplets: Hi Dad!

Ishtar: She's still in her office.

M emerged having heard the voices outside the door. She strolled over to Kason greeting him and sharing good news.

M: Welcome home handsome. The book is finished. I sent it to Takara for last minute edits before publishing.

She whispered with a hint of lust and excitement as she hugged him the sight of him making her instantly flirty. He pulled back showering her with kisses.

Kason: Mmm, you brilliant woman. I can't wait to read it.

She nipped at his bottom lip. His response was low and seductive.

Kason: Save some of that for later. I'll make it worth the wait. You'll never believe what happened today?

He mumbled between kisses.

Venus: Hello we are still here. Gross!

Ishtar giggled and Aphrodite sighed and shook her head at her sister's comment. Kason kissed M's nose one more time for good measure before putting a little distance between them to stop the mock gagging noises coming from Venus.

M: So? What happened?

A mischievous smile spread across his face.

Kason: Nope. You have to guess.

M: Hmmm. Paris quit?

She said only half-joking. Kason snorted.

Kason: Good one, but no we aren't that fortunate. One more and then I'll tell you.

M: Hmm. You..you got the promotion?

Kason shook his head enthusiastically the smile on his face full of pride his eyes shone with accomplishment. He had worked for Bay's Robotic Engineers for almost 8 years. He had been hired mid-level due to his degree but that hadn't stopped him from putting in his all to impress Greg and earn his keep. He'd moved through the ranks fairly quickly, his progress only halted when he needed to take time off after the triplets and Zohreh were born. He had even put up with training Paris and all the craziness that came with having her work for the company. His focus never wavered, he had a goal and finally he could ring the bell on his career. Being promoted to the head of the department he was now Bay's Robotic Engineers new Master of Machines and he could finally call himself a master of his trade.

M: Congratulations!! I'm so proud of you! Guys Daddy got the top promotion at work today!

The triplets jump up to join their parents excited to be a part of Dads big news.

Ishtar: Congratulations Dad! You're like the lord of the robots now!

Venus: Dad does that mean that you're the boss? That's so cool you get to tell everyone what to do.

Aphrodite: Yay Daddy!

Comet barked loudly running around the family's feet with confused excitement. Zohreh toddles out of the living room and M picks him up waiting for Kason to finish with the triplets. She brings Zohreh over to Kason and Zoh immediately squirmed reaching for his father.

Zohreh: DADA!

Kason: Hey buddy!

Zohreh: Zohweh missed you

Kason snuggled his son close.

Kason: I missed you too Zoh. I'm sorry I had to leave earlier Mommy told me you had a hard day but your big brother kept you company. Good job Ish.

Ishtar smiled up at his dad with fulfillment. Zoh just snuggled closer happy to be back in his father's arms. They stood around laughing and congratulating him. Kason was euphoric, his life felt whole. He was at the top of his dream career, he'd found and married his soulmate, and though they'd found trouble their marriage was stronger in the outcome. He was making good money and felt he and M were laying a secure foundation of wealth for their children to inherit when they were gone. The only thing worth perfecting now was his parenting. His kids were his life and he wanted to be the patriarch they felt they could always come to for love, knowledge, and protection. What else could be worth his time and dedication now that his personal life goals had been met? Kason had always been a great father but when it came to his children he knew there was always room for improvement. His parents hadn't been perfect and he knew the same was true of himself and M even though he felt she was as close to perfect as a parent could get.

He started by joining the triplets in tackling their school projects. When all the castles were complete and everyone was cleaned up for the night they gathered in the backyard to celebrate and enjoy each other's company. The clouds were low and ready to open and unleash rain at any moment but it wasn't raining yet. So they roasted marshmallows and hot dogs while Kason played the guitar (another of his hidden talents) while Spirit told ghost stories in anticipation of spooky day which was only a week away.

Around 11 the first signs of rain became evident as the droplets fell on the fire, the logs hissed in protest, leaving faint wisp of smoke in their wake as it tried to smothered small portions of the flames. Everyone found shelter inside while Kason stayed behind to ensure the fire was properly extinguished. Feeling full, accomplished, and filled to the brim with love for each other the family turned in for the night.

Previous Next

Beginning

Sidebar: It felt like Kason and M needed a break. Just a day to work on their own careers and spend time with their kids and each other. I also wanted to give a quick update on what was happening with the photos online. With M being a celebrity there had to be some fallout from her husband being called a cheater online. M has an active slander case against the paparazzi which I will include the results of in a later post. Also, I had no idea that Tucker was in the house or by the fire when I took the last couple of pictures. I didn't notice him till everyone was going to bed and got the notification thanking us for hanging out with him.

I sent M and Aphrodite to Chestnut Ridge to go horseback riding when I got there, there was this crazy thunderstorm going on (I forgot to reinstall my sul sul weather app by littlemssam) so I added the Friday night call because apparently something is wrong in Chestnut Ridge and there was like a 4-day thunderstorm almost none stop.

Sims In Bloom: Generation 1 Pt. 1 (Meet the Founder!)

When you play a challenge in The Sims 4 that ignites your imagination but is supposed to be fun (so why am I plotting generations like this is a real novel?!), you figure out how to use Tumblr to share it because you've officially put in too much effort for it to be a little word doc on your laptop and you actually can't get over how pretty this game is, even with the most basic graphics card on earth.

Gen 1 is a breeze compared to Gen 2, so enjoy the casual fun gameplay while it lasts... (And no, I'm not great at gameplay screenshots, thanks in advance for not caring! It gets better by Gen 2 but not incredible or anything.)

Generation One (Founder): Daisy Lea Darden Clumsy, Cheerful, Loves Outdoors Gardener (Botanist) Favourite Colours: yellow, white Favourite Drink: Apple Nectar Favourite Music: Cottagecore

Daisy Darden took some time after high school to decide what she wanted to do with her life. She ultimately chose to return to the home she lived in before her grandmother's death – a quaint village cottage at 5 Cobblebottom Street in Henford-on-Bagley. Raised by the old woman after her parents were killed in a car crash when she was a baby, Daisy was young when her grandmother died too, tossed into the foster system with nowhere to call home.

But the deed was still in the family name and Daisy was the only descendant. She hoped to find success as a gardener in one of the greenest towns in Simlandia, but more than anything she wanted to find the family she was robbed of as a little girl.

Despite everything she’d been through, she was optimistic and smiled when she thought about her future.

Not long after her arrival, she met Henford civil designer Neal Nesbitt, who made her feel things she'd never felt for a man before. He thought she was beautiful, and they loved spending time together outdoors, commiserating over Henford's often-rainy weather. Their connection was deep and immediate, and a daytrip to the city for a comedy festival let Neal see his cheerful girl in her element.

Already stressed by political red-tape at work, then the roof burst at his cottage north of town. During the repair, Daisy let him stay with her. Content to be alone after the shock death of his parents to a pandemic flu when he was just out of high school, Daisy made Neal feel at ease. He never wanted to leave, and he moved in for good before the repairs on his house were complete. That's when Daisy discovered his parents had been well off, leaving them more than enough to live comfortably as they began their life together. Daisy never cared about money, but she was grateful not to have to struggle after so many years of hardship.

To cope with her years in the foster system, Daisy had taken up meditation as a teen, guiding her mind to a place of calm despite the tumult in her life. It also helped her find literal balance, as she’d always been a bit clumsy. She stocked her kitchen with the cheapest dishes imaginable because she was always breaking them in the sink! When she wasn't tending to Henford's many beautiful green gardens, including her own, she was helping residents from Henford and beyond with guided meditation sessions in-person and online.

Neal and Daisy found themselves expecting after just a few months, but a blissful babymoon in Granite Falls convinced Neal he'd met the woman he wanted to spend his life with. He and Daisy were young but determined to make a good life for themselves and their child. They eloped in Oasis Springs on the way home, just months before the birth of their daughter, Heather. Even though she had to be induced and it went against Daisy's hopes for a natural home birth, that Heather was healthy was all that mattered.

Dog-lover Neal brought home a rescue, but even with the chaos of new parenthood, the smart, friendly sheepdog named Ralph fit with their little family perfectly.

How would a baby change life in Henford for lovebirds Daisy and Neal? ->

Lucid Legacy Gen 1 - Days 4 & 5

Long time no see! I had these screenshots waiting to be edited but didn't get to them before I got busy. I don't quite remember exactly when these events occurred, but I do remember they were from days 4 and 5.

Seth has been getting many visitors in the short time he's been in Henford-on-Bagley. In just two days, he got a visit from the Mayor and Derek McMillan. Unfortunately, while he was talking to the Mayor, a wild fox busted into his garden and stole some of his crops! It took a third attempt at theft for Seth to finally catch it. The nerve!

When Derek stopped by, he and Seth had a nice chat and he even helped out in Seth's garden! What a kind neighbor.

Seth also got to work. The garden was full of pests and weeds, so he spent most of those days gardening.

In between those events, Seth did some digging around the property since he's now interested in fossils and minerals. Plus, Sparky brought him a gift! Seth isn't sure what he will do with a rubber ducky, but for now, it will go on his dresser so Sparky knows he appreciates it.

Please use the #ts4horseshoelegacy hashtag so I can see how you guys play out this legacy!

This legacy was made because I love drama and farm life, so why not have both? I love challenges with long backstories, so be ready for paragraphs! This challenge requires the following packs: Horse Ranch, Cottage Living, Cats and Dogs. If you do not own one or more of these packs, I'll include some base-game alternatives, but Horse Ranch is needed, considering this challenge is focused around the pack. 

Gen One- Romantic to Recluse

You are the first of generations of dramatic, over-the-top, animal-loving sims. So naturally, you possess all of these traits and more. Your sim has lived in Henford-On-Bagley with their secluded but lovable uncle for their entire life. It's only when their uncle passes away of old age that your sim begins to question why they're even in Henford anymore. Your spontaneous sim quickly packs up, quits their job as a gardener, and heads for (not so) greener pastures. Immediately after moving to Chestnut Ridge, a certain sim catches their eye and your sim being themselves, quickly pursues this dazzling sim. Not long after, they are left heartbroken, and impulsively rescue a horse to make them feel better. Humans aren't trustworthy anymore, but horses can be! The horse, although your sims new best friend, is not really a money maker. 

So they gather up a few loose simoleons and enter the growing market of mini goats and sheep. Your sim is thriving! Well, not exactly financially. Or emotionally. So, having forever closed off their heart to humans after a devastating heartbreak, your sim adopts a child. Wait, what? Your sim, now a recluse of their own, the crazy sim of Chestnut Ridge... adopted a child? Not even a baby? Even if your now older sim has well, not spoken to another humanoid soul in what seems like a lifetime, they need someone to help them with the chores around the farm. And, your sim may never admit to it, but they're starting to get lonelier every day. 

This child, although a little stubborn at first, is just what your sim needed. They shower them in gifts and affection, giving them anything they could ever want (at least, within the budget). When this child grows old enough to take over the farm, your sim gives them one last gift: a horse of their own. 

Rules

-Aspiration can be anything, although I'd suggest Country Caretaker. You cannot have a job besides odd jobs.

- Your sim must have the romantic and loves outdoors traits.

- If you play with mods/cheats, you may cheat the gardening skill to 4. 

- Your sim starts in Palomino Junction.

- Your sim must never have more then 5,000 simoleons.

- Your sim must only make money through odd-jobs and mini sheep and goats.

- Your sim must have a perfect relationship with every farm animal they own.

-Your sim must pursue another sim from Chestnut Ridge, and date said sim for one sim week. After this, you can have them breakup anyway you want, just make sure its scarring enough that your sim never wants to love romantically again.

-At this point, your sim wants no human contact. You can cheat their traits so romantic is replaced by unflirty. 

- Your sim avoids others at all costs, they must never speak to another human sim besides their child until they're an elder. 

- Never enter a horse tournament, and never let any of your horses skills go above 3, except for temperament which should be maxed. 

- Have at least 3 mini goats/ sheep in your household at all times. 

-Adopt a child half-way through your sims adult life-stage. This can be exact or just when you feel the time is right.

- Anything in your child's whims that require things to be bought, buy it for them. (Unless it is over 5,000 simoleons, which is highly unlikely)

- Buy your child the best horse in the market when they age up into a young adult. 

OPTIONAL:

-Max the gardening and animal training skills.

-Always have 2 dogs/cats in your household at all times.

Gen 2- Best of the Best

Your sim has grown up with everything they could ever ask for (within 5,000 simoleons, that is) yet they've always wanted their own success. When they were adopted as a child, they rebelled against their adoptive parent. Your sim had gone through the foster system many times. But never had your sim felt so at home in Chestnut Ridge! They quickly warm up to their new parent and form a close bond with them. Your sim is spoiled rotten as they grow, but they never let it change them. They've always been hardworking and goal-oriented, that's not going to change!

When your sim's parent gives them a shiny new horse for their 18th birthday, an idea comes to mind that could finally give them what they've always wanted! Your sim is going to be the ultimate horse champion and make enough money to give their parent an easy life. They move out of their childhood home and use the money they've saved from years of working teen jobs to purchase the largest plot of land in Chestnut Ridge. They quickly get to work training their horse to be the best horse Chestnut Ridge has ever seen!

Along the way, your sim meets one of their biggest horse racing rivals. This sims horse is faster, stronger, and smarter than your sims! That fact makes your sim's blood boil. They do everything they can to ruin their rival sims' life; all's fair in horse championships, right? Eventually, they exhausted all their resources to destroy their rival's chances of winning. Discouraged, your sim halts all of their horse's training and learns to cross-stitch for a living. Your sim's parent finds out about this and shows up at your sim's house fuming. They give them the pep-talk of the century and tell them that no one can get in the way of their dreams.

Your sim is blown away! They turn over a new leaf, continuing their horse racing career. They meet up with their rival and actually learn they have a lot in common! They become best friends, and maybe something more? As your sim grows older, they accomplish their dreams of racing in the ultimate horse championship, even if their rival turned partner wins first instead of them. Your sim marries their partner in the biggest, most extravagant wedding ever! Your sim was never one for theatrics, but their partner is, and how can they say no to them? Your sim lives the dream with their spouse and plenty of children, teaching each and every one of them that dreams and love can go hand in hand. Oh, your sim and their spouse's horses? They have kids too.

Rules

-Have all A's throughout school

-Complete the Championship Rider aspiration.

-On your sims birthday into a young adult, move them out with their horse into Red Roan Field.

-Your sims horse must max all skills.

-Your sim has to practice a skill with their horse at least once a day.

-Max the horse riding skill.

-Meet your rival sim and just make them mad. Get creative with it!

-After a while of tormenting this poor sim, your sim takes up cross-stitching and must max the skill.

-Compete in every horse race except for the ultimate horse championship until you marry your rival sim.

-Your sim's parent must meet with them and give them a talking-to about their dreams.

-Begin a friendship with your sims rival, and eventually a romantic relationship.

-Max the charisma skill.

-Make 5 best friends.

-When your sim's partner gets married and moves in with them, they will both participate in the ultimate horse championship. Make sure the spouse, not your sim, wins! (You can ensure this by not maxing out all your horse's skills until after the championship, but maxing out all of the spouse's horse skills.)

-Your sim must have a very big wedding, with all the friends they've accumulated over the years.

-Your sim should have more than 2 kids.

-The amount of kids you have is the number of foals your sims and their spouse's horses should have too! (If you can, cheat the household size so if you had a lot of children, each can have a horse!)

-Make over 100,000 simoleons by the end of this sims life, and if your sims parent is still alive, give them 50,000 of those simoleons.

Gen 3- Forever Family

This sim grew up with everything they could ever want... except for the attention they always craved from their workaholic parents who seemed to love eachother more than their children. Your sim didn't want a horse, they wanted their parents! When this sim ages into a teen, as the eldest child, they rebel. They learned that love only caused pain, and that their need for love could be rewarded by dating whoever they could. This sim breaks hearts left and right, leaving no heart untouched. Never have they felt so free!

Until, that is, they catch the eye of their younger siblings partner. Your sim doesn't know what they should do... keep living their life free of strings and betray their sibling? Or leave their sibling to have to endure the pain and suffering that comes from love?

Your sim ultimately decides to betray their sibling to hopefully make them understand that in the end they all leave for someone new. They pursue their siblings partner and convince them to leave your sims sibling. Your sim and their new partner date for a little bit, and eventually have a heated break up. Your sim never recovers the relationship they once had with their sibling, but they do save them from all the infedelity and hurt that your sim edured instead of their sibling with this horrible partner.

After years of dating around, your sim reaches young adulthood and decides to move to the city in hopes of a new start. They get a part-time job as a barista, your sim never really knew what they wanted to do in life, and hopefully will be able to find a fulltime job as they learn more about themselves. Your sim finds themself at a karaoke bar with a couple of highschool friends, singing their hearts out. Singing ignites a new passion in your sim, and they decide that they want to pursue it. They enter the entertainer career and never look back! One of their longtime high school friends eventually asks them out on a date.. and what do you know? They hit it off! Per your sims request, they take it slow and finally get married when they both become adults.

Your sim realizes that love can't be all that bad, right? They have 2 beautiful children with their spouse and live in San Myshuno until they are both old and gray. Every week they have a family night, and every morning your sim tells their children that they love them with all their hearts so they never have to feel the way your sim felt as a child. When your sim becomes an elder, they reconcile with their younger sibling, who moves in with them after a messy divorce with a little infant in hand.

Your sim dies fulfilled, surrounded by all the family and friends they acquired over their lifetime. Nothing could mean as much as a family that loved them.

Rules

-Start this gen when the heir turns into a teen

-Your heir must be the oldest, with one of their younger siblings just behind them in age. (So that they can be teens together!)

-When your sim is a teen, they must start the Villainous Valentine aspiration and complete it as a young adult.

-Your sim must date a new sim every week as a teen.

-Your sim must have a perfect relationship with their younger sibling until they are a teen.

-Your sims sibling must get a partner, who your sim starts pursuing.

-Your sim must convince their siblings partner to break up with them.

-Your sim and their sibling must have a negative relationship bar after this. (You can cheat it or make them get into a huge argument.)

-Your sim must break up with their new partner before graduation.

-Your sim must move to San Myshuno and meet up with their high school friends at a karaoke bar.

-Your sim must start the entertainer career.

-Max the singing and charisma skills.

-Begin dating one of your sims high school friends.

-Have 2 kids with your spouse.

-Have family game night with your kids once a week.

-Have perfect relationships with your kids and spouse.

-Go on weekly dates with your spouse.

-Die during a family gathering. (It is possible if you wait for the age bar to be full and then keep having family gatherings, or you can just cheat them to die of old age during a reunion.)

Gen 4- Drown in Your Sorrows (warning- this one is sad)

You lived the perfect life. A loving family, constant entertainment from your parent, on an idyllic farm. Growing up, you weren't the brightest, but you were amazing at talking. You could make any friend you wanted! And while you loved this, you hated how dumb you felt compared to your friends. When you tell your stay-at-home parent, they dust off an old cookbook and teach you some- maybe unhealthy- coping skills. Cooking quickly became one of your favorite hobbies. You were good at it, and everyone loved your food. When you reach high school, you catch the eye of many popular kids who pull you into their circle. You date a few of them but find yourself disappointed with them, why doesn't anyone feel right?

You push yourself into student council to find a purpose, but that doesn't help either. It just leaves you with more shallow friends who you used to adore but can see right through now. Eventually, you graduate, with nothing to your name but a few baking championship awards. Your parents say you can stay at home, but you feel like you need to prove that you are smart enough. So you head to college, start a degree in culinary arts, and dorm with some brand new people.

In college, you discover nectar. You love how it tastes and makes you feel. If you drink enough of it, all your worries drift away! You quit your degree, move back home, and start a small nectar-making business. Eventually, you get enough to purchase a small house of your own in Chestnut Ridge, but it feels so empty without a family. All the dates you've been on have ended hollow.

When you go to deliver some nectar to a client, you stay much longer than anticipated... and end up having a one-night stand. That night leaves you with unpaid nectar and a positive pregnancy test. This child you have only reminds you of your failed attempt at a happy family, one you could never have for yourself. You push this child onto your parents and drown yourself in your nectar and tears.

You end up dying an early, unfortunate death. All you wanted was love, why did it have to end like this?

-Have a B or lower in school your entire life.

-Make dinner for your family when you are old enough every Saturday night.

-Die as an adult/young adult

Gen 5- Blooming Still

One of your parents left you to your grandparents when you were too young to remember them, and the other- well, you don't even know who the other is. But you never let this stop you. Your parents didn't define you, especially the lazy drunk who left their only family. You still think about this parent sometimes, effortlessly fuming whenever you do. Your grandparents tried to tell you their side of the story, but you'd never fully listen. You'd been instilled with your grandparent's values and knew that you'd be the one to get it right.

You picked up your grandparent's hobbies as you aged, some being gardening, baking, and knitting. Your only real friend you trusted was the only child down the street, who seemed to be as lonely as you used to be. You are not much of a talker yourself, but it's effortless with your new friend. You only need them and your grandparents.

When you reach your teenage years, tragedy strikes. Your beloved grandparent has passed, and now the other is left grieving. You are the only one who can care for your other grandparent while saving up for university. The pressure quickly piles up from high school, jobs, your grandparent, the dying farm, and your only friend who has lately become distant.

You break down at your friend's front door and luckily they're the one to answer. They quickly usher you in and hug you tightly, listening to all your burdens. Your friend being back to normal gives you a breath of fresh air and you ask them why they had been so indifferent to you for so long. Before you can comprehend, your friend leans in and whispers something in your ear. You gasp, then lean in and kiss them.

Your best friend had been hiding a secret... they were a spellcaster! They had been distancing themselves so you would not be in danger if someone from their world were to become a threat. You are spellbound. The stress is less with your friend by your side now, and when you graduate, they tell you that they are going to the same university as you. As you get older and your other grandparent dies, the sadness is lessened by your now-fiancee and their promise that you could be a part of their wonderful world, doing the thing you loved most- gardening beautiful flowers. When you graduate, you convert the run-down farm into an extravagant flower oasis, only this time the farm thrives even more when you learn a few spells yourself.

Rules

-Only have one friend (that isn't your grandparents and random acquaintances) throughout your childhood and teenage years

-Max the gardening skill

-Lower the friendship level with your childhood friend to acquaintance when you age into teens

-Have one of your grandparents die (use cheats if they die too early/ haven't died yet)

-Reach level 5 of the knitting skill

-Reach level 7 of the baking skill

-Complete the goal-oriented aspiration as a teen

-Work a part-time job

-Have all As and be an honor student

-Makeup with your friend before you reach young adulthood (time this however you like)

-Go to Britchester with your new partner and complete the Academic aspiration

-Major in anything you think suits your sim the best

-Get all As and Bs

-Move in with your partner after graduation

-Get a job as a gardener in the flower-arranging branch

-Get to the Adept level of spellcasting and only cast practical magic spells

-Get your partner to the Virtuoso level of spellcasting

-Move into a house with an ENORMOUS greenhouse attachment!

Let's check in on some other important players of Gen 1!

Gunnel and Jade still hang with Bess and Jules - and also Clara Bjergsen (who lives in Chestnut Ridge). They are all enjoying retirement, even if Bess still has that entrepreneurial energy and now and then start a new project/business. Gunnel still writes, but mainly lives off old royalties. Jade enjoys being at home - she invested a lot of time and money to make it her favorite place in the world!

Anton's sister Elsa with husband Stephen (both well into their 60s) still live in Windenburg with their daughter Maia (23) and son Jacoby (10). Alessandra (23) has moved to Henford-on-Bagley with her husband Tono Bunsi (37).

Nigel (45) lives now with his husband Jaxton (36) and adoptive son Darrell (12) in Windenburg.

Alison (47) inherited her childhood home, but completely rebuilt and redecorated. She and Erwin (51) are still very much in love, and they pour all that love and joy into raising their son Floyd (4).

Jay (49) still lives in Sulani, but the house has been rebuilt and made bigger. Her and Vincent's (48) adoptive daughter, Amelia Bauman, lives nearby. At home is now Adelaide (12) and Derick (3).

Prism family Such Colorful Lives Legacy!

I'm gonna put this under a cut because it's long, but basically since I'm starting posting my SCL legacy on gen 7 (accidentally wrote 6 on the poll whoops) Sadly no screenshots since I wasn't really taking pictures since I was just playing on my laptop :')

I found the rules here, and tweaked it however I felt like for my own play through, which I'll get into below

Gen 1 — Rosa 🌹

The founder of the legacy! She had a very standard generation where she completed all required tasks, got married and had kids, and didn't do much else. She married Darrel Charm, and had twin spellcaster babies; Clementine and Nova. Lived in San Myshuno for this gen.

Gen 2 — Clementine 🍊

I love and adore her and she's actually still kicking around the save! She's a highest rank spellcaster who took a potion of immortality to be with her vampire wife (Evie Delgato) forever :) (and also because I get extremely attached to my gen 2 heirs and I didn't want her to die). She completed the snow globe collection as a teenager before moving to Del Sol Valley. She had her first two kids, Sol (Granddaughter of Makoa and Lilliana), and Amber (daughter of Kiyoshi) who were both spellcasters, before marrying her wife, Evie, and eventually having a little vampire baby named Alba :)

Gen 3 — Sol ☀️

This was the first generation where I started to change the generational goals; namely I'd done the politician career 10000x so I swapped it out for the Law career, in the judge branch, which then had me swap to max research and debate instead of charisma. I also swapped the "donate to every charity" rule to a "volunteer every Saturday with the whole family" rule. She married Aurelio Robles, lived in San Sequoia, and had one daughter, Ivy.

Gen 4 — Ivy 🌿

I did a TOOOONNN of the kid stuff from growing together with Ivy, which was really fun! I think I did almost all of the kid aspirations with her?? Her generation did follow the actual challenge goals. Her ex-wife was Daniela Banuelos, a random townie who cheated on her with some guy named Troy, and had a kid named Dana. Ivy and Daniela had twins, River and Lake. I think her house was my favorite; she lived in this renovated cottage in Henford-on-Bagley that she built up over time and had a giant garden :)

Gen 5 — Lake 🐟

Also followed the actual goals of the generation for her! She married a mermaid. I forgot to mention that every single heir since Clementine has been a spellcaster lol. Lake ended up having 3 kids because for some reason her, Ivy, and Sol all have essentially the same face, so I kept trying until the game finally gave me someone who se genetics actually show the other parent. So first there was Violet, a spellcaster who married her high school sweetheart and immediately had triplets, and then a fourth child for good measure. After Violet was Lilac, also a spellcaster! And finally came our heir, Lavender, who broke the spellcaster streak and is a mermaid!

Gen 6 — Lavender 🪻

This gen was weird for me because I got super used to having spells like scrubberoo and delicioso, and now all I could do was make it thunder sometimes. I also changed this one up, since I've done a bunch of the original goals a bunch! The aspiration was swapped to Strangerville Mystery, career to Military, and swapped the bookworm trait for Adventurous. I still had her marry a scientist (who she met in Strangerville), and still get abducted and impregnated by aliens! Maybe it was a little cruel of me to make a mermaid live in Strangerville but I gave her a lil pool at least.

And then I'll be posting gen 7! I'll make a separate post introducing the family and generation goals (they are completely overhauled from the legacy rules). The gen 7 heir is starting in high school, because I guess Lavender was just too productive and got things done really fast.
