𓏲 ࣪₊♡𓂃 not so berry | gen. 1 -> meet thea berri

meet thea berri, the founder of my 2nd attempt at the not so berry legacy challenge <3 i'm mixing up lilsimsie and alwaysimming's original challenge with sweetlysimss' updated version !!! check my goals + more about thea below, hehe <3

(al)thea berri | young adult | materialistic, genius, vegetarian, vain, jealous

gen. goals + rules

you’re a mischievous scientist that really loves the color mint, you’re career driven but still make time for silly pranks and outings with your closest friends, you love luxury and want the best for yourself and your family, but you can quickly turn sour and hold a grudge

Goals: Master the Scientist career, master the Nerd Brain & the Chief of Mischief aspirations, master logic and mischief skills, complete the elements collection, assign a voodoo doll to at least one sim, find your spouse through an hate -> love relationship, invent all inventions, use the electroflux wormhole generator to travel to sixam, invent all serums, master the rocket science skill and build a rocket and use it to travel to sixam

+ thea's backstory

Many moons ago, one of Sixam National Laboratories' pollination technicians was looking for a suitable Sim to experiment with when they found Theodore Berri; it was a night of full moon, and he was charting the constellations in the sky, looking for one he hadn't found yet.

He didn't feel his body levitate toward the small spacecraft controlled by his abducter, didn't even flinch at all the tests and experiments they put him through all night. In his alien-induced haze, everything felt like a dream, even though he was very much awake.

The morning came, and Theodore woke up in his bed, but it was still made; he scratched his chin, feeling his stuble against his fingertips, thinking about how real his dream had felt - and how tired he must have been to fall asleep without changing his clothes or getting into the bed.

Just then, Theo felt a strange feeling in his stomach - something like a kick? But surely, it couldn't have been... Unless? He knew it was a possibility, how could he not after all the years he spent researching Sixam and its inhabitants?

Time seemed to fly by and sooner rather than later, Theodore Berri held a baby girl in his arms. He knew he could give her back to Sixam, he knew that he probably should, but he didn't have the heart to do so. No, not when his beautiful Althea looked so precious, so normal, as he held her.

And yet, he couldn't keep her for long. When she turned five years old, the same spacecraft appeared in the sky, silent as ever - but this time, it was the little girl who was taken.

In Sixam, the girl was told her father had given her up - that he realised that, after all, it was not right for a human to raise one such as her. Thea refused that - she knew her father would never leave her side, not if he could choose not to. This was an inconvinience - and an easy one to resolve, at that.

The very next day, all of Althea Berri's memories were of Sixam; of being nursed by a figure in a lab coat, of playing with other children her age in a stark white room, of eating only what could be unearthed from Sixam's soil. But those children, despite her age, didn't look like her. For a hybrid, she looked a whole lot more like a human.

On her 18th birthday, Thea was brought to a room, stark white like all the others, at the top floor of the facility where she lived her entire life. Well, where she thought she had lived he entire life.

Her superior told her then that she would be dismissed from Sixam. She had reached maturity, and yet she had never morphed into her alien form. She was a failed experiment, her superior said. She was, for all intents and purposes, a human. The only thing that set her apart from a common human was that she was hauntingly beautiful, unnaturally so, and that her hair was as pure white as the facility's walls and floors. Every inch of her was perfect, like she had been designed and engineered for months, even years, so much so that it gave anyone a headache to lay their eyes upon her for too long. And, for that reason, she was of no use to Sixam.

As quickly as they whisked Thea from the planet that watched her scream to life, they gave her back - alone, with no memories of that place she had been taught to fear.

So... this may no longer count as a "rotational save" since I chose to make it in another world/save file but....

Meet Minthe Julep Celestia

aka Ghost's half sister. I'm going to be playing a variation of @sweetlysimss's merge of the Not So Berry and Berry Pastel Rainbowcy saves. However, I made my own set of "rules" since I wanted to play a more relaxed version of it. I guess you could say this save is more inspired by the idea to merge the two challenges. I used the TS3 rules for both to combine the generations to the best of my abilities.

[motherplanted]

i dont really like gen 3′s rules of being a fabulously wealthy collector so im changing it to off the grid living (but with some of the same elements like collecting etc. :) ) 

[gloomyclauds]

If Dina was a non berry Sim...

This was honestly so much fun 😊 It brought me back to the Berry Reverse series that I used to do on my channel.

Nandina is from my Not So Berry Pastel Rainbowcy gameplay, which mixes both the NSB and the BPR challenges. It brings in so much color, compared to your typical berry challenge. The challenge was created by @sweetlysimss and I can't recommend it enough! Since I'm almost done with the first generation, I'll be sharing the tray files for Dina 💗 And a big thank you to everyone that has been following the challenge!

I might make a lookbook for the boys as well, but no promises 😅

This legacy is based on the same one by @sweetlysimss who very graciously gave me permission to try my hand at converting the challenge for TS3. It's not perfect but I tried my best to stick to the original rules and try and make it fun!

Tag: #nsbxbpr should be fine still or @ me if you do try this out!

Rules:

This challenge can be played with vanilla, banilla, or berry sims

As per the challenges this is based on, the romance options are a mix between those in the BPR or NSB, allowing  you to choose which you’d like (or mix them up if you wish!)

There is an optional generational challenge to paint/take a photo of your heir for every generation

The generational requirements do not need to be strictly followed/can be changed as you see fit - the important thing is to have fun!

Generation 1: White

You come from a long line of privileged sims. Life was easy for you and you never wanted for nothing. Despite the easy life, you also felt constricted, unable to be yourself. Now that you’re a young adult, you decide to break free from your parents and pursue your own dreams. Packing your bags, and taking enough money to get by with you, you run away to the old, rundown, farmhouse that the only grandparent you cared for left you in the will. Starting off with nearly nothing to your name, you decide to pursue the hobby you were never allowed to chase to its extent: painting. Due to your upbringing, you find it difficult to let other sims in and may come across as rude sometimes. What you really need is that one special sim to make you feel like it’s all worth it. Slowly but surely, as the years go by, your own family starts to grow, but life is not without its ups and downs…

Recommended traits: artistic, snob, grumpy, hopeless romantic

Career: none; make money through your paintings, fishing, and harvestables

Move into your grandparent’s old house. Must be fairly basic/rustic (the size of the house/lot is up to you)

Max the painting, gardening, and logic skills

Have multiple romantic interests throughout your life, but do not settle permanently with any of them until after you have your first child.

Go on at least one date with a purple, pink, and/or a red sim

Have one child

Get married (does not have to be the parent of your child)

Become enemies with the other sims you did not end up with

Have one more child (can be adopted or an alien baby if you wish!)

Sell at least two masterpiece paintings

Have at least two animals in your household

Optional: raise one from its youngest lifestage all the way through to elder

Be good friends with all your children and animals

Become good friends with at least one grandchild

-

Generation 2: Purple/Pink/Red

Although not everyone would believe you, you would say you had a great childhood. You grew up sheltered but loved by your parents and sibling. From a young age, you had a great passion for reading and books, though all those days spent reading might have left you with a few unrealistic expectations about life. Despite everything, you are eager to see everything that life has to offer and a sudden once-in-a-lifetime trip might change your world forever…

Recommended traits: bookworm, computer whiz, great kisser, irresistible, family oriented

Career: writer

Max the painting and writing skills

The sim you marry must be yellow or peach (whichever was not the colour of your first spouse)

The sim you marry must be in the culinary career

-

Generation 3: Peach/Yellow

It is fair to say that you grew up in quite a hectic household. The only person who spends time with you and truly understands you is your childhood best friend. The two have you been through thick and thin. They were initially drawn to you for your quiet nature, your inquisitive soul, and a passion for nature inherited from your grandparent. In your late teens, you start to notice those traits are working against you, causing others to call you “weird” or “different”, so you adapted. However, in the process of becoming this new version of yourself, you find yourself losing the one thing you ever held dead. Will you ever get your best friend back? Only time will tell…

Recommended traits: loner, shy, brooding, disciplined, athletic

Career: professional sports and then unemployed when you become an adult (though you can supplement your household funds with your collections)

Max the painting, athletic, and martial arts skills

As a child join the boy/girl scouts, and then join one of the afterschool clubs as a teenager

As a child meet your best friend in a different neighbourhood (orange or grey)

As a teen, never have any close friends except for your best friend and any of your grandparents if they are still alive

As a teen, date your childhood best friend

As a young adult, you decide to change your life around and become the social, popular sim you’ve always wanted to be

Join the professional sports career

You and your best friend begin to drift apart and eventually separate

You date around but nothing lasts

Complete one or more of the following collections: metals, gems, insects, fish, or plants

After becoming an adult, quit your career in sports but continue to make money by selling your collections

As an adult, reconcile with your childhood best friend

Optional: have one more child

Get married

-

Generation 4: Orange/Grey

Unlike your parents, you are far more practical when it comes to your life choices - or so you like to claim. After getting interested in your grandparent’s large book collection, you become interested in the occult, in particular witches. A mysterious book leads you to become a witch accidentally and soon strange things start to happen. Before you know it your great-grandparent has come back from the dead! In flesh and blood! How on Earth did that happen? As you begin to figure things out for yourself, a mysterious stranger takes an interest in your so called necromancy…

Find a new job and skill to focus on as an adult

start a new relationship with a different orange or green sim (whichever colour was not your first partner)

Have at least one child

-

Generation 6: Orange/Green

Food is love. Crime is life. Doting parent and aspiring cook by day, criminal by night. Have you ever heard of a baking criminal? Neither have you, but someone should be the first.

When you leave at night your family think you are working at a swanky restaurant in town, little do they know you’re actually working for the most notorious criminal organisation in town!

Regrettably, they always seem to be the one in the spotlight, whereas you are left floundering in the dark. What you do excel at though is school and eventually, your career.

Not So Berry Plus Challenge for the TS3

I just wanted more for the TS3 version of this challenge and honestly, who wouldn't. I didn't create this challenge, I simply added and modified somethings to fit more for what TS3 has to offer while trying to keep to the NSB playstyle and heart of the challenge. So if you like the NSB but want more to do in the TS3 version of it, this is a challenge for you.

Disclaimer: I didn't make this challenge, @lilsimsie did. I also incorporated ideas from @simlovinggirl from her TS3 version of this challenge. Also inspiration from @sweetlysimss from their updated version of the TS4 version. Also sim wikia page for all information i need in terms of gameplay.

Tag: the normal nsb tag or "nsb plus" or "nsb +" or "@" me

Do you like the rainbow? Do you like the idea of playing with berry Sims but hate berry Sims? Do you want to mess around with aspects of the game you’ve never used before? Boy, do I have the challenge for you!

Rules:

You can follow the orignal rules of the NSB but I'm not requiring it for this.

You can keep the color scheme for each generation or just stick to the objectives of each generation. It is up to you as the player

2-3 traits are required but you don't have to have all of them for the heir if you don't want to.

howdy! so a long, long time ago in like 2019, i decided that i wanted to rewrite the not so berry challenge originally by @lilsimsie and @alwaysimming to fit in some more of the occults and other packs we’ve gotten over the years since their challenge was originally created. this was also partially inspired after seeing @sweetlysimss had created an updated version of the original NSB challenge as well around the same time, so credit where credit is due! check out both the original challenge and sweetlysimss’ updated version — without them i wouldn’t have been able to be confident in recreating the challenge to suit my own tastes and interests! ♡

the challenge still follows a similar structure to the original challenge, but i’ve adjusted many of the generations to fit storylines that i find more fun, adjusted the rules to things that i personally would like to explore, and make use of packs that i don’t find myself playing with to their full potential too often. i especially added a lot of occult gameplay, because i tend to just make occult sims and then don’t do much to play with their specific gameplay or with the aspirations that come with the pack they’re in.

if you’d like to see a full rundown of the entire legacy, click here to see the google doc i’ve made with all of the generations’ rules laid out for you. below the cut is the first generation’s rules so you can get an idea of what the full challenge will be like!

Generation 1: Kaia Flores | Berry Pastel Rainbowcy

Welcome to my not so berry pastel rainbowcy legacy!! I've been eyeing this challenge for a while and once i even reached gen 4 in it but i lost my save file. So, this is my 2nd take on this challenge, I revised some of the rules and added some new ones to fit my preferences, hope ya'll gonna like it!

Rules by @sweetlysimss under the cut.

Generation One: White

Growing up you’ve always been the odd one in your family, the outcast, a Sim with no supernatural abilities. You didn’t really have anyone to relate to, since you lived a rather sheltered life… When things got rough, you found your sisters art supplies and instantly fell in love with painting. When you grew up you decided to get away from your supernatural roots and seek refuge in one of the family’s abandoned vacation home. With no job and thus no income, you try to make the best of things by growing your own crops to eat and sell your art for money. Love doesn’t come easy for you and your love-live is a bit of a mess, but all in all you’ll have a big normal happy family you’ve always dreamt of!

traits: creative, art lover, rancher

aspiration: big happy family AND Championship Rider

career: none (sell paintings, produce and harvestables)

GENERATIONAL RULE: paint a portrait of your heir

REWARD TRAITS TO BUY: mentor, speed reader, super green thumb

Introducing Aspen for @sweetlysimss Not So Berry x Berry Pastel Rainbowcy Legacy Challenge

[myshunodolls]

Well, I guess my first day at work could've been worse. I did some fantastic work and helped the team progress on the current research after they'd been in a slump for months, I even produced the first ever SimRay... But it seems like my supervisor doesn't like me very much. I mean, he was flashing smiles at everyone until *I* walked in the meeting room - then he had this look on his face like someone was permanently pinching him. And he *ignored* me. Nobody has done that ever since I got here - no one! He pulled me aside before my shift ended and claimed he "knows what I am". What does he mean? I'm *technically* still an alien, but only by blood... I don't have the appearance or the capabilities - apart from my inteligence and my killer looks, of course. So what did he mean by that?

First things first, I wanna give credit to @eccedente because Mr. Enemy to Lover is actually one of the guys (Lincoln) in their Sim dump. Thank you so much! <3

I renamed him Atlas Lysander and his traits are charming, passionate, genius, smug and ambitious. He has the Renaissance Sim aspiration and is a Scientist.

Sooo... Here's a better look at him and his backstory, enjoy!

Atlas was born when his parents were both well into their adulthood, making everyone wonder if he was even planned at all when the couple told their loved ones the news. Some people had even thought that they didn't want children, for parenthood would slow down their projects and research. However, when Atlas was born, his eyes golden amber like his mother's and his hair black as the night sky like his father's, everyone could tell just how much the couple had longed for him.

From a young age, Atlas shared his parents' interests - he was fascinated by the stars and the mysteries of the universe that his father tried to chart and unravel, but also by the mess of his mother's laboratory, the smell of chemicals making him scrunch up his nose and ask her a million questions. He loved to stare up at the sky at night and ask his father how big the universe was, and his mother what kind of creatures lived in it besides them.

Then, one day, his mother had a new answer for him. She had taken an interest over aliens ever since her dear son developed curiosity about them, searching for something that had not been found before, something that would not only appease Atlas' curiosity, but also the world's. She found that besides the aliens known by the public, there were also shells, a type of alien that lacked the appearance and powers of one, but, instead, had an otherwordly beauty that allowed them to manipulate human Sims if they wished to do so.

She figured them out, however, because her husband had left her for one. Atlas grew to despise his father, whether he had been manipulated or not, and also shells. He thought they were wicked, even more so than normal aliens, because sometimes they couldn't even tell they were bending people's minds to their will.

When he reached young adulthood, his mother became his mentor at the lab, helping her son pursue their shared passion for science, but also the one that tied him to his father, until she passed away. He quickly became a respected scientist, though not yet as much as his mother, developing groundbreaking research from a young age. He also took great care into being able to identify shells, not wanting to fall victim to the same lies as his father.

And so, it was no surprise that when Althea Berri walked into the research facility, making everyone's heads turn and charming them with a quick smile and wit, he saw her for what she was at her core - a shell. But, despite his best efforts, he couldn't deny what she also was - stunningly beautiful, her features both delicate and sharp, unnatural and intoxicating. He resented her for it, feeling uneasy around her for he doubted even he'd be able to resist such a woman.

He ignored her for the most part, except from when she kept trying to congratulate him on all his research and ask how she could be of help, her nearly mint blue eyes enlarged as she tried to read his, eager to find out the reason for his unpleasantness. "I know what you are", he said, fearing that speaking to her further would make him lose his mind. He locked himself in his office for the rest of the day, his hands shaking while he twirled his mother's wedding ring with his fingers.

Can you tell I love and am currently reading Cinder and trying to reflect Cinder and Kai on my gameplay.

Welcome to generation 3!

As I've said in previous posts, Generation 2 ends when Lainey marries as an elder. she also has to have a bad relationship with Felix before the rose gen is complete. It will be a while until then so I figured we should get started with gen 3 while we wait.

The heir for the yellow gen is Felix Berry. He has recently aged up to a teenager and is about to start his first day of high school.

For this challenge, I’m following the updated rules created by @sweetlysimss.

Here’s a link to the updated challenge: XXX

Generation Three: Yellow

Growing up you never really had a close relationship with your parent. their workaholic nature has really put you off. however, dedication is something that runs in the family. you start to focus on your handiness skill and as you do so, you grow closer to your space-crazy family members. before you know it, you’ve found your greatest passion: woodworking! besides woodworking, you start to develop an interest in gathering collectibles as well, as they turn out to be worth quite a fortune! soon you’re able to provide for your family without having an actual job. ha! that will show [insert parent]!

traits: self-assured, art lover, loves outdoors

aspiration: fabulously wealthy

career: unemployed

Rules

master the handiness skill

unlock all woodworking sculptures/furniture

master the rocket science skill and built a rocket ship

complete the fabulously wealthy aspiration

Enter the secret lot in oasis springs (requires level 10 handiness skill)

Never have any real close friends except for one of the family members from generation 1 (e.g. the founder, if they’re still alive. if not, any other family member suffices)

Meet your future spouse while exploring a different neighbourhood for collectibles

There is no set number of children for this generation

Have at least “friend” level with all of your children

Make money by selling your woodworking and excessive collectibles.

Complete the following collections:

Aliens: 10 collectibles (found via the rocket science skill’s adventures in space)

Crystals: 20 collectibles (found while digging up rocks)

Elements: 15 collectibles (found while digging up rocks and then sending them to the Geo Council)

Fossils: 15 collectibles (found while digging up rocks)

Frogs: 25 collectibles (found via searching in logs, water pumps, and caught at ponds → rare frogs can either be found or achieved by breeding)

Parfait Redux Part 15/?

Hyssop's family has remained largely unchanged over the years. He still marries his childhood best friend Baby Blue "BB" Dream (originally from @sweetlysimss's very old ts3 legacy), and went on to have one daughter with her, Hyacinth.
