Somewhere in the mountains, far away from the City Council’s reach, lies Shangri-La University. It was originally founded in 1966 as a secret government project to defeat the Grim Reaper but after the catastrophic failure of said project, opened its doors to human and supernatural students alike.

Red or neon pink, moose, Snickers/caramel 

A person’s favorite color, favorite animal, and favorite flavor of ice cream can say a lot about them when considering the answers as a whole. Some prime examples I’ve heard are:

~ Silver, Artic Wolf, and Mint Chocolate Chip.

~ Pink/Yellow, Putu Bird, and Cotton Candy.

~ Light Brown, Tree Kangaroo, and Rum Raisin.

~ Green, Pig, and Cookie Dough.

Mine are:

~ Burgundy, Fox, and Moose Tracks.

Tag some friends and get a sense of who they are! :)

Rumour has it, Cosmina and Leann, Nosferatu Hill’s ever-feuding High Witches, were for once in agreement when they decided to banish Cleo from the neighbourhood. There’s been talk of high treason, not only to witchkind but also every other supernatural being. Some say, she’s an agent of the City Council collecting intel to help the humans get rid of Nosferatu Hill. Others are sure that she’s the demon witch from the prophecies. For now, Cleo’s laying low in the backwoods of Chalice County trying not to get chased by another murderous mob.

Quarantine Q&A

Hello, I’m still lurking around here and @treason-and-plot tagged me, so let’s do this.

Tagging @grilledcheese-aspiration, @cosmeticalsims, @minu-mercuti, @furiussoup and everyone who’s wearing something red.

Are you staying home frome work/home?

Nope. I’m in accounting and if you didn’t know that’s basically time travelling because accountants are forever stuck in the 80s. At least, where I work. There’s no home office, only floppy discs and software straight from the Matrix.

If you’re staying home, who’s with you?

I’m not home much these days but my mother.

Are you a homebody?

I don’t mind staying in but I miss having a life outside of work.

What movies have you watched recently? What shows?

I finally got my mother to watch Grace & Frankie, so I’m re-watching that. Other than that, not much. I finished Sex Education some time ago and one of these days I’ll finish watching Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and Angel. Ask me again in a few years lol.

An event you were looking forward to that got cancelled?

Everything my friends and I had planned together. Birthdays, movie nights, going to the theatre...

What music are you listening to?

Ghost and Starkid musicals. There’s no inbetween. 

What are you reading?

The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman and Breverton’s Phantasmagoria.

What are you doing for self-care?

Animal Crossing and running early in the morning as often as I can. Taking a hot shower after an early morning run is like the best thing in the world.

You go forty in a thirty-five Check your mirror, you'll find hell has arrived

Notice from the City Council: If it’s unavoidable that your way leads you through Nosferatu Hill, remember to be alert at all times. There’s no law enforcement present in Nosferatu Hill. Don’t let yourself be fooled by demons masquerading as police officers. These are dangerous impostors! Don’t stop your car, don’t look back and especially never make eye contact. You might not survive.

You’ve been warned.

Some WIP row houses inspired by my trip to Amsterdam in May. For now, they are more or less just empty shells. Finding a good layout for 4 tile wide houses is hard, guys...

[backerbse]

Where the wild roses grow... 

... is where Chalice County’s witches meet! (if there were any)

[backerbse]

You don’t care about impressing your neighbours and would rather have them far, far away from your property? Look no further! 

This charming residence lies in one of Chalice County’s idyllic forests where nobody can hear you scream (except maybe the eldritch horrors lurking about but they’re usually not too bothered).

[backerbse]

Some prime real estate for Chalice County. Yes, it’s full of holes but it’s also the only house with a garage, so you’re sure to be the talk of the town.

[backerbse]

Hey! Ive been following you for a few years now and I can safely say you’re my favorite simblr. Could you recommend good sims 4 cc or cc creators? I trust your taste the most lol

Thanks, that’s very sweet of you! :D

I don’t play Sims 4 a lot and mostly pretty vanilla, so I don’t know how helpful this is to you. Here are some favourites of mine:

Pretty much everything by @pyxiidis

@sentate for a little more glamour for the ladies. Also, actually good looking high heels because the EA ones are ... ugh.

@simsontherope has good basics, especially for men.

The furniture sets of @peacemaker-ic are pretty and well-made.

@pictureamoebae has nice wallpapers and EA recolors. Good colour palette.

[backerbse]

Hi Backerbse, do you by any chance still have the links to the non-default face templates Revolvertrooper made of some of your sims? I haven't been able to find it anywhere! Thanks

Apparently the links on my DW are broken, so here’s a direct link to the mediafire folder ->click<-

[backerbse]

Meet Chalice County’s mayor Ingo Eitel (those of you with a very long memory might remember him from older posts). He’s living in the old school/prison/asylum and he’s also a *~*~model~*~*. Always the first one to share unpopular opinions.

[backerbse]

In case Tumblr explodes tomorrow or something (I’m really not up-to-date with what’s going on here exactly), you can find me on my old Dreamwidth. Feels a bit like doing a time warp back to 2010, lol.

[backerbse]
