my gameplay rules

I constantly allude to the existence of gameplay rules, but I've never outright made a dedicated post about them... so here it is! I'll make a dedicated video for this at some point, but enjoy this lovely wall of text <3.

link to the dedicated video: here!

general gameplay style

I'm quite fast and loose with my gameplay. I'm primarily wants-based, but sometimes I want sims to do certain things so I'll just make it happen. If a sims doesn't roll a want to do certain things, however, then I won't make them do it (i.e going to college). If they roll the want to skip work, sometimes I'll let them do it 'cause it brings chaos.

So, basically, if anything sounds fun, I'll probably do it. I find it hard to stick to rules that are too strict, so most of mine are general rules of thumb. If I ever find myself getting bored, I rarely ever blame the game. The game is pretty kooky, so if nothing crazy is happening, it means I'm simply not allowing anything to happen.

I play with 7 day rounds! Using this mod that makes seasons 7 days long, I just play the whole week. Plus, any holidays I may want my sims to celebrate will be on the Sunday!

🧓 aging and death

Marticore has a great video on Sims 2's aging system, so I pretty much abide by that. Aging sims up when they receive that one day until their birthday notification. I use the Nice Lifespan mod, which adds a bunch of days and makes things make a bit more sense. I also edited the mod to age them up at midnight (because 6pm aging makes no sense).

Because my lifespan is so much longer, I recently started playing with slower skilling all-around. Using the 6-hr version of this mod.

Also, a higher a witch/warlock's alignment is, the longer they live (with the help of BO's slow aging controller). That's why Olive is still very much alive in my game, she's max alignment so she ages once a week.

When a sim is nearing death, I keep in mind inheritance. I use SimNopke's Inventory Inheritance to give away any stray items to their next of kin. If the sims owns a house, then the ownership goes to the child with the highest relationship. If the sims doesn't have any kids, then it goes to their spouse. If they aren't married, it goes to a very close friend. If they don't meet any of those requirements (bro how?!), then I sell the house and give the money to the orphanage.

I also really like playing with trans sims! I'm nonbinary myself so I need to project, obviously <3. So I roll a 5% chance of transing their gender... as a little treat. I'm still in the process of figuring out this mod, that'll let me have the memory of transitioning.

Death is also final in my game (with some extreme caveats). So, sims can't get resurrected unless the sim resurrecting is lvl 10 paranormal, and max witch alignment. And, anyone who's besties with tha sim gets to resurrect a sim of their choice. It's sort of a punishment for letting a sim die.

🌠 aspiration and personality

Sophie the Puffin has an absolutely killer aspiration calculator. I calculate everyone's secondary aspiration, and usually set them. Though, this can change depending on how I'm feeling. If I feel like it doesn't suit them, then I simply just won't set it.

I use the aspiration calculator to age up sims from child to teen as well! Using this interest age mod, it allow child sims to have more varied interests. I kinda stick to their secondary aspirations, because I can't be bothered to change it.

💼 career, education, and finances

I tried using Edukashun is Gud and… it just doesn’t make sense that I can’t be a Lvl 10 Criminal because I don’t have a degree. Like, that’s so silly. So I use Doctors Need Degrees that’s way more detailed.

Unless a sim wants to go to college, I won’t make them go. They need to roll the want on their birthday (or the day before). Once they do roll that want, I note down the day they moved out and play the family as normal. I play a whole round before I move the sims back in, to simulate time passing while they were in college. College is free, because you should never pay for education, but accommodation isn’t so sims will probably need to take out loans (4% interest rate) to pay for bills and the like. If my sims don’t want to pass the year, they won’t (but if they roll a fear of failure, they can pass). I just play it by ear.

Of course, semester changes is used… I’m not a lunatic.

No 20k handouts is an absolute godsend, so that’s an absolute must for me. Usually, graduates move out into apartments, but with the Tenancy and Landlord mod by Monique, I can have them rent out a house. This is what I’ve currently been doing with my La Fiesta Tech grads.

Child support is also a thing! It’s super handy, and also adds some challenge to managing finances.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 family

Romance sims have a 35% of giving their child up for adoption (or giving their child to their partner). They don’t wanna get bogged down with responsibilities! Similarly, they can’t try for baby (unless secondary family). Unless they roll a fear for having a baby, I won’t put them on birth control. And I’ll only take them off of birth control when they roll a want to have a child. If they roll this fear while pregnant, I terminate the pregnancy (1st trimester only).

I also nabbed this rule from a reddit thread:

Though, I’ll still give the child away, family sim or not. I think it’s pretty realistic to feel in over your head with something as major as a child.

Getting your child taken away is also harder in my game, because I play with kids and pets unattended. You actively need to be evil for your kid to be taken away.

Aliens can impregnate/be impregnated regardless of the situation. They’re aliens! Don’t think about it!

I don’t have a hard and fast rule for number of children permitted (how dystopian), but I have a general rule of thumb. A romance/pleasure sim won’t want to have 3 kids probably, so 1 or 2 is alright.

No super fertility because I love my life! And I play with a quads mod, so I truly do not need it.

And if a gay/infertile couple want a genetic child, they need to either be lvl 10 of the science career (or be best friends with someone who is).

💞 romance

ACR my beloved <3. And romantic standards! I find ACR makes everyone horny freaks, so having romantic standards adds some challenge. Plus, it makes it much harder to just force a relationship. I don’t play with teen/adult romance — nor do I play with teen pregnancy. There’s no rush to have kids! They have the rest of their lives.

✦•······················•✦•······················•✦

Anyway hopefully this adds some context to what I’m thinking of when I play the game. Maybe you’ll adopt some of these rules too? Maybe I’ll add some more? I’ll be sure to update when I do!

Hello! Thank you for your aspiration calculator. I wanted to ask, how do you decide what career your Sims go into? There's a career calculator out there for that, but I was wondering if you possibly used a calculator that you made yourself to determine careers, or you somehow use the aspiration calculator to decide. Thanks!

Hey, you're welcome! That's a good question. I've never used any calculator for careers. I try to be as wants based as possible, with a little character judgement and the character judgement has been really easy because of playing with premades with backstories. However, a lot of this judgement comes from their interests, some from aspirations, and a bit from their personalities. Hobby is very important too, but I tend to also choose the one-true hobby for my sims also based on their character (interests in particular) as I often don't agree with the one the game chooses.

Lets start with Teens. Teens only get a job if they roll a want for a specific career or if they want to earn some money. If its just to earn some money, I'll either base it on their LTW (which I also choose based on their character), or interest/hobby. If I don't think a typical career suits them, I'd have them join one of the custom NPC jobs like barista or cashier or nanny. I don’t interpret parents’ wants for their kids to be overachievers as enough to make my teens get a job unless they seem extremely strict/pushy/tight.

All of my teens go to Uni at the moment (but can drop out) and this is an important step because a huge factor of what career they will have as an adult will be based on what major they did. I try to wait until they roll a want for a specific major but sometimes I just have such a strong sense of their direction from them being teenagers (aspiration, LTW, personality, traits, interests, hobby, backstory) that I have a major/career in mind for them already. I'd never let them run out of time for the game to default to the Philosophy major unless I feel like they're really lazy and uninvested in Uni, or Philosophy would be a good choice for them anyway.

As for when they're adults, I pretty much wait until they roll a want for a career. If they roll wants for careers I don't think suit them, then I'll just use that opportunity to give them a career that I think does suit them based on their major and whatever else because at least they are thinking about work. If they roll a want to earn some money, depending on how driven they seem I'll either use this as a chance to put them in a career I think suits them or to get a part time basic job like barista or bartender or waiter. If they don't roll any career or money related wants, I just won't make them have a career unless for whatever reason I feel like they'd be really determined to pursue their LTW if its a career one. To encourage them to roll these wants, I keep the household funds low by depositing excess into bank accounts using the hacked computer. If they don't roll these wants and are in danger of the repoman, I'll have them apply for social welfare using the mod. Sometimes I'd use this for single mothers I think would either be too poor (to pay for a nanny) or family oriented to work. As a little side note, if a sim is a business owner or I want them to earn money via their hobby (like being a painter), I give them custom business owner and freelancer careers with no salary or hours to stop them rolling wants for careers.

Wow, that probably could have just been a 'no, sorry' huh...you might not have been interested in any of that at all! I really need to write down my gameplay rules somewhere.

It was late into the night and Renee was back at the station. She needed to find the problem with Vincent's phone and why his messages didn't send. Renee relayed all the information Vincent told her and he emphasised using the hospital wifi. They figured his phone was hacked this way and someone was spying on him, preventing him from making calls or messages. With the cyber security knowledge of Captain Vazquez, they tracked the IP address of the device used to intercept Vincent's phone. And the location was Strangerville.

Now Renee had all sorts of thoughts in her head. Despite it being late at night, she found the whole process fascinating. And all the links to Strangerville. The police may be the only way to uncover more about the place and find out what the hell is going on there. Perhaps she should switch from her history course to criminology and become a detective. Yes, she will do that. Renee doesn't like history as much as she did anyway and she liked the idea of solving crimes.

i will try to not sip my haterade on main but ts2 became fun for me again when I finally got over doing the youtube simmer type gameplay rules. fuck yeah everyone pairs off depending on how cute i think they are together. wants are suggestions and aspiration selction is based on whatever whims i have at the time. i will put everyone in emo cc like i am 13 again

#i know it probably came about outside of it but every youtube simmer does the (not naming the name so it doesnt appear in search) rules #and it gets so boring because they all end up with the same gameplay and storylines

Almost a year ago I decided to write a legacy challenge inspired by my favorite legacy challenge, Crybaby Whims - @draeyad, and now it's finally ready!! This challenge doesn't have the same amount of drama as crybaby whims (in my opinion! consider it the clique in comparison to mean girls yknow) but I do think it's still pretty juicy!

Cherub Fears is a 12-generation legacy challenge taking inspiration from melanie martinez songs and the stories that pop into my head when listening to them lol. It's full of love, betrayal, heartbreak, friendship, and revenge so if that sounds interesting to you keep reading to get to the excitement.

°˖✧˚ ཐི ♡ ཋྀ ˚✧˖˚ʚ♡ɞ˚˖✧˚ ཐི ♡ ཋྀ ˚✧˖˚ʚ♡ɞ˚˖✧˚ ཐི ♡ ཋྀ ˚✧˖˚ʚ♡ɞ˚˖✧˚ ཐི ♡ ཋྀ ˚✧˖°

When I play challenges I don't listen to the rules/objectives 100% so I took that into account and tried to only give a few things to do per generation. If you encounter something in your own personal gameplay that don't like change it!

Don't have a trait from a specific pack? Change it! Don’t feel like doing 12 generations? Do 10, 8, or even just 2! Don't feel like maxing a skill? Don't do it! This game is meant to be fun and an escape from the real world do what makes you happy. (just don't change something for your own personal game and demand I change the rules to reflect your revisions please.)

If I have convinced you to play my challenge please use #cherubfears so I can see your wonderful gameplay! Ok, time to go forth and bring some mayhem into your sims lives!

Love,

Eros

°˖✧˚ ཐི SIPPY CUP ཋྀ ˚✧˖° Generation 1

Traits: high maintenance, self-absorbed, outgoing

Career: Work from home

Aspiration: Successful Lineage to Serial Romantic

Colors: Scarlett & White

~ Blood still stains when the sheets are washed ~

You always knew you were destined to be a revered matriarch ever since you were a toddler. Your parents were always away when you were younger, all those business trips funneling money into your little hands to ensure you were well-manicured and presentable. An only child in a gorgeous mansion with expensive furniture and silence. Pretty on the outside, hollow on the inside. You always wanted to be just like them, stunningly loved by most and hated by few, but it's hard to idolize someone invisible so you vowed when you had a family of your own they'd be perfect. On your 18th birthday, you finally leave your house of glass behind to start your life. Very quickly you fall into what feels like how love was described to you by your maids/butlers and before you know it you’re married listening to the pitter-patter of tiny feet run around your small shabby suburban home.

It all seems so perfect until you're stuck in the shadow of your bumbling partner and dreadful children making being a parent feel more like a curse, you do what was taught, run away, and start over, so that's what you do. With a newer more daring lover in arms reach will they make you the glorious matriarch you were meant to be.

You're happier than ever and just like your parents.

Max charisma & entrepreneur skills

Get married to a rich sim

Glamorous house with mediocre interiors

Have at least one kid with them

Sweet but neglectful to kids

Fall in love with a criminal

Leave your family behind for the criminal

Start an illegal business with them

How will you keep your old life secret?

˚✧˖˚ʚ SOAP ɞ˚˖✧˚ Generation 2

Traits: erratic, good, insider

Career: your choice

Aspiration: friend of the world

Colors: White & Pink

~ Uh oh, there it goes I said too much, it overflowed ~

You were always taught to keep your mouth shut but you were never a good listener so that could have gone better. Your parents always kept everything a secret: where they grew up, their first love, even their relationship with your grandparents. Still, you'd grown a special talent for reading between the lines and deciphering whispers. When you were old enough to go to school you were all too eager to make friends just so you could tell them all the secrets you'd collected, being a gossip in your family was basically a death wish although you didn't seem to pick up on the glares and sneers thrown your way. All you wanted was someone who'd listen and actually care about what you told them, but you were always yelled at and told to be more careful “or else”.

Wanting nothing more than to get away from that suffocating family you hoped and wished a sweet sim would come and whisk you right off your feet and one day you got your wish. They were gorgeous and thoughtful and curious just like you so it felt so easy to tell them everything, they were the love of your life after all. Unfortunately for you, that same naivety and goodness were again to your detriment.

Did they ever really love you or did they just want to get closer to the skeletons in your family's closet?

Bad relationship with parents

Give terrible advice

Max research & debate skills

Fall in love with an undercover detective

Get dumped after they arrest your parents

Will you ever find someone who gets you?

°˖✧˚ ཐི CAKE ཋྀ ˚✧˖° Generation 3

Traits: Loner, glutton, ambitious

Career: bake sales/own bakery

Aspiration: soulmate

Colors: Pink & Yellow

~ We've got all the ingredients except you loving me ~

You didn't adore many things in life except for dessert. People always seemed to gossip far too much in your humble opinion, if you could you would get rid of every bad egg in your way. Sure you loved your family, most of the time anyway, but something about flaky croissants and decadent brownies was all you needed in life, mostly because they couldn't talk your ear off and you knew how to handle a cavity or two. Your parent despised that you kept so much of your feelings inside but they just didn't understand that sugar, butter, and flour were far more comforting than their advice. That's how you knew you were absolutely screwed after you met someone that made your heart flutter more than the scent of freshly baked pie. Sure they were so delectably beautiful but that was the extra cherry on top of meeting this wonderful sim. They were charming, witty, and so tooth rottingly sweet.

So when you found them with another sim that looked just like you in your beloved kitchen everything turned sour quickly. You were quick to leave them for bigger and better but uh oh, it looks like someone's got a bun in the oven.

Max baking

Make the highest quality of every baked good available

Partner cheats with a look-alike

Change style completely

Leave partner but someone ends up pregnant

The kid looks like mc = neutral relationship

The kid looks like ex-partner = negative relationship

How will you ever move on from this betrayal?

˚✧˖˚ʚ FIRE DRILL ɞ˚˖✧˚ Generation 4

Traits: goofball, socially awkward, active

Career: your choice

Aspiration: academic

Colors: Yellow & Orange

~ Love is seeping out my pores, I don't hold anger anymore ~

Being so in your head as a child always seemed to get you into trouble but expressing your thoughts was worse for wear so you decided it was better not to speak at all. You assumed everyone hated you from the moment you were born which wasn't a hard conclusion to come to when your parent was indifferent to you at best. That's why when a fire started in your kitchen you didn't know what to do except run. Your parent(s) swore they weren't that upset at you for burning not only their beloved kitchen but also the house down so you chose to believe it was true since they were the only one in your life who didn't think you were completely weird. As the years went on you started to speak out little by little and decided to express yourself through your clothing.

When you reach high school you've kept the outlandish fashion and manage to find a few friends along the way too! They're not exactly the nicest but they're someone to talk to and you've learned forgiving and forgetting get you further in life. That is until you come back from your daily jog and find them stealing all your things and- wait, is that a fire?!

Maybe one day you'll find a sim who likes you for you but until then you'll keep trying to steer clear of flammable objects.

Accidentally set the house on fire

Max fitness via running

Never use mean interactions

Go to at least one festival each season (spice festival recommended)

Only friends with mean sims

Move out as soon as you're a YA

Meet and fall in love with a sim from high school who was mean to you

They betray you, steal all your belongings, and set your house on fire

Why do these horrible things keep happening to you?

°˖✧˚ ཐི NURSES OFFICE ཋྀ ˚✧˖° Generation 5

Traits: genius, self-assured, clumsy

Career: scientist to astronaut to dream job (your choice)

Aspiration: never complete one

Colors: Orange & Cyan

~ I'm tired of wishing I was ditching ~

“Eureka! I haven't seen a sim this smart since well… ever!” a phrase you've grown to despise with a raging passion, luckily for you, a good poker face was next on the list of things you were gifted at. All your childhood you were paraded around like a prodigy trick pony answering equations and inquiries with ease at record speed and you hated every single second. You knew deep down it came from a sense of love and pride but there was always a voice in the back of your head that said otherwise. “They're jealous!” it shrieked “All they've achieved was light arson and a shitty relationship! You're the only thing they've ever done right in their life”. Of course, you knew those were terrible awful things to think of those who cared for you but what if it was right?

Your parent(s) wanted you to use your intelligence for “good” in the world but you were determined to live your own life and make your own mistakes without fear of their expectations… as soon as they looked the other way of course. When your childhood friend confesses their love for you your excuse to get away is right at your fingertips so you dive head first into that relationship and never look back.

Your parents can't be disappointed in your every decision now that you've moved out, right?

Max logic, handiness, and/or programming skills

Become a scientist

Have the opposite relationship with your parents

Become a scientist then switch to an astronaut (you don't like this either)

Become famous at some point

Follow your dreams once (at least) the previous heir dies

Was wasting the opportunity for a good relationship with your parents worth it?

˚✧˖˚ʚ DRAMA CLUB ɞ˚˖✧˚ Generation 6

Traits: mean, recycle disciple, creative

Career: mixologist

Aspiration: master mixologist

Colors: Cyan & Purple

~ I’ma take a bow, so you can kiss my ass ~

Growing up your parent was the next best thing since grilled cheese, big whoop all they did was prove Sixam was real and now you've got to deal with the consequences! By proxy that makes you the world's next sim to fawn over, not because they think you're interesting, no they couldn't care less about you, it's your parents they're after and you're their golden ticket. Maybe things will be better for you once you start school, but that'd be too easy now, wouldn't it? Every sim you're interested in seems to lose all interest in you once they realize who you're the child of, or maybe their feelings were a facade the whole time. Either way, you're happy to rid frivolous romance and friendships from your life if it means one less sim getting on your nerves.

But that sentiment is easier said than done when you spend most of your nights as a teen in lounges or nightclubs. You may not have inherited your parent's huge brain but you knew sneaking out and staying out till school the next day was bad, that's why you did it!

If you had to suffer through celebrity status you were going to make it everyone else's problem.

Max mischief

Have atrocious reputation

Only negative interaction with fans

Only negative perks

Have a kid through a one-night stand (adopt/science baby if you want more kids)

Move off the grid as an adult

Never use social media again

Will your actions as a teen come back to bite you in the ass?

Traits: gloomy, romantic, bookworm

Career: actor

Aspiration: Fabulously wealthy

Colors: Purple & Gold

~ I'm chewing gum to pass this time of sadness, can't you see it? ~

You were a lonely kid never having any friends except for your sibling(s)/parent and the frogs you collected, to be honest, they were lousy company. Never wanting to partake in tea time or playing dress up sure soured your mood even more. You yearned to explore and discover the wonders of the world but mostly you wanted to be like the characters to read in your books, swept away to a wonderland beyond your wildest dream, or saved from your proverbial tower. Sure you were basically a modern-day way cuter Snow White stuck in the middle of nowhere but that's not the life you wanted! You were destined for greatness! Your name spelled out in big fluorescent lights but thanks to your very own Evil Queen now you had to earn that fame organically, ugh. Next thing you know you're snapped out of a particularly amazing daydream when a kid from your class you paid no mind to before shows up on your doorstep to rescue you from your dreary life and whisk you away to their castle in the hills!

Wait what? They're here for a project, not because they were overcome with a deep unrelenting maddening love for you? Oh well, you'll find a way for them to love you, or from the looks of it put your tremendous acting skills to use and pretend you loved them; if you had to kiss one geeky frog to become royalty it's what you'll do!

Whatever it takes to get out of here and into the big castle you deserve.

Max acting skill

Complete frog collection

Have will they won't they relationship with geeky sim give them traits (geek, squeamish, bookworm)

Dump them for their sibling

Have at least three kids (name children after fairy tales)

Is that “royal” life all it's cracked up to be?

˚✧˖˚ʚ THE CONTORTIONIST ɞ˚˖✧˚ Generation 8

Traits: overachiever, perfectionist, unflirty

Career: doctor then your choice

Aspiration: musical genius but give up

Colors: Gold & Green

~ Caught you like the cold or a flu, praying that I’ll someday be immune ~

Straight A’s, good manners, a tidy room, and no drama. The perfect formula that any parent would love, well any parent except yours. Maybe if you were on the cover of a magazine or out posing for paparazzi instead of staying up late doing homework. You do anything that's asked but no matter what you're still the odd one out. Your siblings get praised for everything even when one of them gets expelled. “Well, you know school isn't for everyone sweetheart!” How is that fair? Instead of letting that anger and frustration fester you decided to fuel it by learning how to play any and every instrument you could get your hands on and for once your parent was proud of you! Truly proud of you, until they learned you didn't want to use your talents for the greatest thing in life, fame and fortune. Soon that outlet you loved so much turned into a curse as your parent found every opportunity to exploit you.

Overworked constantly without so much of a second glance, so one day you decide enough's enough the second you've got your diploma in hand you delete all your contacts and move as far away as the simoleons in your pocket will take you. Now that you're finally rid of that burden weighing you down on you, who will you become?

Max at least one musical instrument

Get at least halfway through the doctor career

Good manners and reputation

Parents never appreciate your work but take credit

Do everything you can for them to like you

Cut all contact (except for one sibling)

Use busking money and move away

Have a kid(s) and only use positive interactions even when bad

Only have 1 kid who likes you

Will you ever achieve the greatness you were destined for?

You didn't have high expectations in life seeing as you were raised by a parent that was jaded from such a young age but you were determined to see the best in the world. You never faulted them for their outlook on life. I mean how terrible must have felt to be constantly belittled and used by someone who was supposed to love them? Well, you wouldn't stand for it that's for sure! All your life you wanted to make a difference that would last for generations, especially in the school system, you worked year after year to be the teacher you and your parent always wanted and deserved. You worked relentlessly to become the kind of teacher who would see when kids were hurting, bring everyone's favorite snacks, and wasn't just there for the measly paycheck. On the rare days off, you weren't going over your lesson plans, you spent them hopelessly scrolling through dating apps wishing for a match that would lead to the love of your life, or at least a lover for the night.

So when you meet a struggling single parent on a blind date you volunteer to help them with the very little time and money you have, even going out of your way to take care of their kid on the weekends. Very quickly you build a relationship with both sims, so much so that your mysterious beau's child admits their parent is swindling you of your money and not caring for them!

You have to do something about this, it's the principle!

Max parenting

Write children's books for extra cash

~ Your mother said to pick the very best girl, and I am ~

To say the relationships in your family were tragic would be a massive understatement, did a spellcaster curse your entire bloodline to an eternity of romantic suffering or what? You were weary of the cautionary tales thrown your way, each one weaseling its way into your head until you were scared to fall in love altogether. But the thought of ending up all alone kept you up all night long as well, so what were you to do? Ignore those feelings and pretend they don't exist of course! It would be ridiculous to live the rest of your life in fear besides you having more important things to worry about like game night with family or trying to kick that sweet tooth of yours. Every once in a while though your heart would ping at the thought of someone baking cookies with you and teaming up with you to finally beat your parent in Simbles but your paranoia kept that wish deep inside.

One night when you're walking home from an event at school a sim appears from the shadows to profess their love for you…weird. You remembered vaguely seeing them around the halls but they seemed nice enough and you were getting bored of the mononity of your life so you decided to ignore that little warning voice in your head and give them a chance.

You're happy and finally feel like you've found your person, what could possibly go wrong?

Start dating the first sim that shows interest in you (give them traits mean, jealous, paranoid)

They're nice to you in front of friends & family only

Meet an excellent sim that's love at first sight (give them traits ambitious, clumsy, art lover)

You break up with them they won't leave you alone

Start a self-defense club

Have a kid with the nice sim but your ex is convinced it's theirs

Your ex kidnaps them while you're on a date

What lengths will you go to get your child back?

~ Next time you're alone, think twice when you grab the phone ~

“How come you're the only family I know?” A question that always got you sent to your rundown bedroom. There was no malice behind the question, you were just a kid after all, but it was always gnawing at your mind especially because you had the faintest memories of someone raising you who wasn't them. Ever since you were young you've wondered why both parents weren't in your life. Of course, it was perfectly normal to be raised by one sim but your parent seemed flighty whenever you asked them about it. Come to think of it, they acted differently when you asked anything about them or the rest of your family. They never wanted to play games with you, your friends were never allowed over and you were constantly moving! After a while, you developed a resentment towards their secretiveness and you decided to take matters into your own.

While they were out doing who knows what you worked tirelessly to find just who this person was that called themself your parent. For years you found things out little by little but once you reached your teen years (and third home) you decided to give up your search, that is until a mysterious sim shows up on your doorstep while your parent is away. Who are they? How could they help you escape this shell of a person?

And why does that missing piece of you finally feel whole?

Traits: kleptomaniac, music lover, hot-headed

Career: Part-Time job as a Teen

Aspiration: Public Enemy

Colors: Blue & Black

~ Nothing wrong with a little havoc, it's fun when shit hits the fan ~

You have lost faith in humanity, it's sad to admit but it was the truth. Your parent went through hell and back over one person's horrible decision and they now had to live with the aftermath. Sure they were a great parent and they turned out fine enough given the circumstances but you still lay awake at night listening to their muffled sobs just a couple of feet away. You were angry for them, your grandparents, and your ancestors who suffered awful fates but most of all you were angry for yourself and you wanted the world to pay. You picked up a part-time job as a teen to help out around the house but if you're being honest that sucked too so you had to find a different method. You didn't consider yourself an evil person but you were realistic and knew you weren't exactly an angel either. Sure you didn't need to steal from people but they were rich jerks that sure as hell didn't deserve their mommy and daddy's “pocket change”.

Your parent worked their ass off putting away criminals just to spend their little bit of money giving to people in need and taking care of you. There was one kid you felt kind of guilty about robbing because surprisingly they were sort of cute if you looked past the excessively expensive jewelry and weirdly pointy teeth. Too bad they weren't cute enough to stop you from breaking into their house. You left with something pretty valuable but you don't remember actually stealing it or how you got back home. And now that you think about it you feel different, not quite human anymore…

Something strange is going on!

Have a close relationship with your parent

Be enemies with the person who kidnapped your parent (if they managed to stay alive)

Resentment toward the world

Make at least 20,000 simoleons through stealing

Have a negative friendship with an occult sim (give them traits family oriented, loves outdoors, glutton)

Get turned by occult sim

How will this supernatural event change your life?
