Monochromatic Legacy Challenge

Welcome to the Monochromatic Legacy Challenge for The Sims 4. This challenge was created entirely by me, @liisims. The challenge is based on 10 colors. Each generation is made keeping the colors in mind for the traits, aspiration and career.

Rules:

- Play with a normal lifespan.

- While I don’t recommend using money cheats, it’s up to you.

- The heir can be any gender (for simplicity, a female heir is used as an example).

- Complete the aspiration, max out the career, and achieve the max level in all listed skills unless instructed otherwise.

- Utilize the specified traits; their order doesn’t matter.

- If you share anything related to the challenge (screenshots, gameplay, etc.) on Tumblr, use the hashtag #monochromaticliisims.

- Optional: dress your sim in the color of their gen. This can be just outfit, or hair and everything else too! Whatever you like.

I recommend reading at least one generation ahead before starting the challenge. For instance, if you’re currently on generation 1, make sure to familiarize yourself with the rules and description for both generation 1 and 2. This is particularly helpful as it often provides insights into how the current generation grew up. Of course, how you play is entirely up to you!

This challenge has been in the works for months now, so enjoy!

Generation One: Yellow

You’re a charming mess. Although you struggle with some awkwardness, you are deeply loyal to those close to you. You have big dreams in both wealth and your career. Even though you’re scatterbrained, you believe you can climb to the top of the career ladder. And you love to go for a jog too! Gotta keep up that physical condition to make sure you can chase after criminals.

Traits: Clumsy, Loyal, Socially awkward

Aspiration: Fabulously Wealthy

Career: Detective

Skills: Fitness

Other:

- Must have a cat/dog

Generation Two: Pink

You’re a hardcore paranormal enthusiast. Every little sound or disembodied noise, gets you even more curious about the supernatural. Since you spend all this time researching paranormal activity, you don’t feel a strong need for romance. However, when you were a kid you fell in love with your moms pet (not as in romantically, you just find them really cute). They were just so adorable, you couldn’t help it.

Traits: Mean, Unflirty, Dog/Cat lover (Depends on the pet of gen one)

Aspiration: Friend of the Animals (Complete the first 2 levels, 3rd and 4th are optional)

Career: Freelancer Paranormal Investigator

Skills: Medium, Pet training

Other:

- Must live in a haunted house, when a young adult

- Have a (secret) romantic relationship with Bonehilda

- Complete feathers collection, and create the statue

Generation Three: Purple

You’re nothing like the other girls at school. You’re not weird. Just really smart, and a bit insane… but not mean. Your mother and classmates however… don’t always know how to be nice. It caused you to overthink a lot, constantly aware of your surroundings. So you find comfort in creating. Whether it’s crystals or some fun science gadget!

Traits: Proper, Paranoid, Genius

Aspiration: Crystal Crafter

Career: Scientist

Skills: Logic, Gemology

Other:

- Optional: Diver job when a teenager

- Collect all crystals, and display them in your home

- Use the Celestial Crystal Crown atleast once a week

Generation Four: Grey

You’re a messy romantic. Growing up the house was always messy with all your mom’s gadgets and crystals lying around. You never felt motivated to clean, and became quite the slob. Due to your non-committal nature, you enjoy exploring all kinds of romantic relationships. You thrive in the world of technology, whether you are tinkering with your robotics or programming something new.

Traits: Geek, Slob, Non-committal

Aspiration: Serial Romantic

Career: Engineer (Computer branch)

Skills: Robotics, Programming (level 7)

Other:

- Go to university, but drop out because of pregnancy

Generation Five: Orange

You’re a cringe adrenaline-junkie. You grew up in a very messy home. You were the one cleaning up after your mom. You saw how she had an endless lineup of romantic partners, and it made you crave real connections. Ever since you were young you were always on the lookout. Till you found your high school sweetheart! You’re a natural at being cringe though. You often makes jokes that don’t quite land, and you love to overshare.

Traits: Adventurous, Glutton, Cringe

Aspiration: Grilled Cheese

Career: Secret Agent (Diamond branch)

Skills: Logic, Charisma

Other:

- Must marry high school sweetheart

Generation Six: Green

You’re a bold troublemaker. Your mom always told you about her cool adventures as a secret agent, and how she took down the bad guys, but you thought the bad guys sounded way cooler, so you gave it a try yourself. Because of your mom’s job, she wasn’t at home a lot, you heard about all your friends parents and it made you really jealous of them. And yes, you will rob a bank, but you definitely draw the line at eating a steak.

Traits: Materialistic, Vegetarian, Jealous

Aspiration: Chief of Mischief

Career: Criminal

Skills: Mischief, Handiness (level 6)

Other:

- Must marry a vegetarian sim

Generation Seven: Red

You’re an empathetic sloth. Being lazy means you prefer to let others do all the hard work, but despite your tendency to avoid effort, you’re incredibly generous. You have a lot of empathy for others. Knowing how ruthless your mom was to others, it made you feel bad and always try to cheer others up instead. Putting a smile on someone’s face never fails to make your day!

Traits: Lactose intolerant, Lazy, Generous

Aspiration: Joke star

Career: Entertainer (Comedy branch)

Skills: Comedy, Charisma (level 8), Guitar or Violin (level 3)

Generation Eight: Brown

You’re a rustic dreamer. Growing up you felt most at home in the garden. Your parents didn’t exactly understand your desire to wake up at the crack of dawn and spend all day outside, but they respected it. You dream of running your own ranch, caring for every animal you come across.

Traits: Outgoing, Animal enthusiast, Rancher

Aspiration: Country Caretaker

Career: Gardener (Optional)

Skills: Gardening, Cross-stitch

Other:

- Grow every type of oversized crop atleast once

- Have a good relationship with all your animals

Generation Nine: Blue

You’re a melancholy perfectionist. You always felt like the storm cloud in a sunny household. Your mother found joy in nature, but you’d rather escape to your fantasy worlds. Perfectionism is both your biggest downfall and greatest strength. Your books are always amazing, but never quite good enough for you. You long for a big happy family to cheer you up, cause you’re always so gloomy.

Traits: Gloomy, Perfectionist, Family oriented

Aspiration: Big happy family

Career: Writer (Career or just publish books)

Skills: Writing, Parenting

Other:

- Read your children to bed every other night

Generation Ten: Rainbow

You’re the literal embodiment of joy itself. A big difference from the home you grew up in. But, because opposites attract and you like fixing things, wether it’s people’s decor or their style, you end up falling for a gloomy sim. You absolutely love to party, and have themed party’s every week at your place.

Traits: Party animal, Creative, Cheerful

Aspiration: Party Animal

Career: Interior Decorator or Style Influencer

Skills: Charisma, Photography

Other:

- Throw a party atleast once a week

- Must marry a gloomy sim

A very spooky day in Moonwood Mill 🎃

Neither Ivy or Lou care much for halloween but the kids love it so they put their dislike aside and dressed up for their sake. For Ivy, it was just nice to have some cheer in the house after a disastrous harvest fest with her estranged grandmother...

The next day, besides being Moriko's birthday, Colten decided to teach the youngest to crawl in a… different place.

And of course the mother went to check it out.

Akemi: Colten? Were you teaching Aiko to crawl?

Peccan: “Can mini humans run away like that?”

Colten: Of course! He learned quickly and… [notices his wife's face] I should go after him?

Akemi: Are you still asking?! And give him a bath, I don't want our son all covered in dirt in the photos of Moriko's birthday.

Colten: Hey, champ, where do you think you're going? We have to celebrate your sister's birthday.

No dia seguinte além de ser aniversário da Moriko, Colten resolveu ensinar o mais novo a engatinhar em um lugar… diferente.

E claro que a mãe foi verificar isso.

Akemi: Colten? Estava ensinando o Aiko a engatinhar?

Peccan: “Mini humanos podem fugir assim?”

Colten: É claro! Ele aprendeu rápido e… [nota a cara da esposa] melhor eu ir atrás dele?

Akemi: Ainda pergunta?! E dá um banho nele, não quero o nosso filho todo sujo de terra nas fotos do aniversário da Moriko.

Colten: Ei, campeão onde pensa que vai? Temos que comemorar o aniversário da sua irmã.

Tammy Update - Here comes the fall.

Tammy’s 2nd job as a casino bartender had its perks—blowing her tips at the slots with a few drinks to cap off the night. By the time she was done, she was too tired to head home, so she’d slip behind the front desk and snag a key to a vacant room.

Tammy overslept and missed most of her shift at the diner. Luckily, she hid her hangover well, blaming it on the pit in her stomach flipping, which sent her rushing to the bathroom to puke.

Uh oh. Turns out, it wasn’t a hangover—Tammy’s pregnant, and she has no clue who the dad is. She’s reaching out to past flings, but no luck so far.

Sebastián was panting and sweating when he reached Caroline's house. Yaya opened the door, looking confused and concerned.

"What are you doing here?"

"Where is she?"

"Sebastián, please. You shouldn't be here. If Don Beltran comes home and finds you here, I can't even imagine what he would do." Yamarex's pleas fell on deaf ears as he frantically ran through every room of the house, shouting Caroline's name until he finally found her in the nursery.

"Sebastián, why have you come here?" she asked, her eyes wide with astonishment.

His eyes were fixed on her as she cradled the baby in her arms. "Whose child is that, Caroline?"

"What do you mean?" Caroline asked, laying the baby down in his cradle. "Sebastián, you know whose child this is," she said, trembling.

"Don't lie to me!" He gripped her arm firmly. "I overheard some women talking. Rumors are going around that the child is not Don Beltrans." Am I the father of the child, Caroline?" She didn't answer; she only stared at him with those big, green, terrified eyes. "Answer me, damn it!" he shouted so loud that it startled her, and she finally spoke.

"Stop it, Sebastián, please stop. You're hurting me. He is not your child."

"Don't you dare lie to me! The child came early, and I did the math. I heard what they—"

"Enough! Stop this nonsense. You come here making unfounded accusations based on what? Baseless gossip? It's not uncommon for babies to arrive early. You have no right to come into my house and accost me this way!" she retorted fiercely.

He released his grip on her and spoke more softly. "I implore you, Caroline. Tell me the truth."

"I already told you the truth. You should not have come here. How dare you doubt my word, my honor! Do you think so low of me I would keep this kind of secret? Listen carefully to my words: Listen carefully to my words, HE. IS. NOT. YOUR. CHILD." She spoke slowly and deliberately, stressing each word. At that moment, the baby let out a cry. "It is time for you to leave," she said coldly.

Sebastián tried to speak to her, to apologize, but Caroline would not hear it.

"Out of the love I once bore for you, I won't say a word of this to my husband. Now, please leave and never come back."

Feeling humiliated, he bowed his head in shame and departed. How could he have given a second thought to such petty gossip?

Coleman Rutledge was the man around town that caught Delaney's eye as soon as she spotted him playing a solo game of chess in the local library. He reminded her much like herself during her lonely days growing up in Forgotten Hollow where she too wasted her undead hours on chess -- him being a book lover like herself was just the icing on the cake especially when he told her he was also the librarian.

But Coleman wasn't the first man she had taken notice to. Another man at the local café on her first evening out on the town in Windenburg was, but he was repulsed by 'what' she was, having no regard for 'who' she was and so she was forced to forget about him as painful as it was as he was the first person that ever sparked that 'spark' within her...

As promised, Akemi took the family to Tartosa to celebrate Akio's birthday with a very simple party. Even though the birthday boy was someone else, Moriko had a special request.

Moriko: Mommy, I want a kitten.

Akemi: Moriko, we're going on a trip… we can't have a cat, at least not now.

Moriko: [pouting angrily]

Emiyo: I think she'll beat you to the punch, Kemi [taunting]

Akemi: Keep laughing, Emiyo! One day you'll have children and you'll understand what I'm going through.

But since a Saori never gives up…

Moriko: Grandma Tsu, can I have a kitten?

Tsubaki: Oh my love, of course you can! Grandma will look for one for you, what do you say?

Colten: Moriko! You can't go around asking your grandmother for things like that.

Akemi: Especially not Grandma Tsubaki, who never says "no".

Como prometido, Akemi levou a família até Tartosa para comemorarem numa festinha bem simples o aniversário de Akio. Mesmo o aniversariante sendo outro, Moriko tinha um pedido especial.

Moriko: Mamãe, eu quero um gatinho.

Akemi: Moriko, nós vamos viajar… não podemos ter um gato, pelo menos não agora.

Moriko: [faz beicinho chateada]

Emiyo: Acho que ela vai te ganhar no cansaço, Kemi [provoca]

Akemi: Vai rindo, Emiyo! Um dia vai ter filhos e vai entender o que eu passo.

Mas como um Saori nunca desiste…

Moriko: Vovó Tsu, eu posso ter um gatinho?

Tsubaki: Ah meu amor, é claro que pode! A vovó vai procurar um pra você, o que me diz?

Colten: Moriko! Não pode sair pedindo as coisas assim pra sua avó.

Akemi: Ainda mais pra vovó Tsubaki que nunca diz “não”.

Tammy Update!

After a fiery exchange, Tammy and Charlene eventually found common ground, realizing they both respected each other’s no-nonsense attitude. They decided to team up and hit the gym together on their workout days.

Sometimes Charlene dragged Damien along, but he mostly kept to himself while Tammy and Charlene gossiped. He stuck to his workout routine, tuning them out with his Walkman.

The Spring has gone by! hello summer!

Tammy and the neighbors hit up a dive bar for a night of dancing, drinking, and cards. She and Damien had agreed they were better off as friends, but with each drink, that line between "friends" and something more seemed to blur just a little.

lovely trio 💛
