Def want to try this challenge!!

The Olympians Legacy Challenge

22/07/2024: I edited a few things in some of the graphics! Just a few typos and one of the goals for Apollo+Artemis was incomplete, so I fixed it!

All my life I've been fascinated by Greek Mythology and all those Gods and Goddesses. So I think it's very fitting that my first Legacy Challenge ever would be about them! I hope you guys like it and I'd be very happy if anyone does it someday. ❤️

Here you can find the general rules and all the info for each generation!

Current makeovers I've done in my Vanilla save to the townies in game right now. I'm using only what i have in the game! My goal is to eventually remake all the townies in the Sims 4!

First up is The Roomies Household!

They're my Mint gen's neighbors!

Next are the Pleasant sisters, Angela and Lilith! Lilith actually works with my Mint Gen in the active Science Career!

Lastly are the Calientes! Mainly Nina and Dina Caliente. Nina works with my Mint Gen in the Science Career and is currently looking like my Mint Gen's love interest!

Yes I'm aware Dina's eyes are closed, everytime i tried getting her poc, she'd blink and I didn't want to do this over again.

My sim for the NSB Challenge!

Started in a new, vanilla save to prepare for the update tomorrow!

[hellbornhades]

Well it's a new day and… oh, seems we're having one of those days. That's okay, Nadya will work from home today, what's the chance she'll have to go out.

Okay… the Watcher was completely wrong and extends the most sincerest of apologies to Nadya.

Not only did her work from home assignment require her to leave the comfort of her home. But now she was in this gross city performing interviews… on a sunny-rainy day.

The worst part?

Mysterious guy from last night decided to extend a greeting.

After a grueling work day, Nadya just wanted to come home and read. That's all. Reading always made her feel better. But right when she was about to grab the perfect book to cozy up on the couch with, her phone rings. It's an unknown number. Normally she wouldn't answer, but this time she did. And she couldn't have been happier.

Back at her place, they skipped the formalities and got straight to business.

However mid-way through “the deed,” Nadya started realizing that mystery hottie was actually really, really annoying.

Well it's a new day and…

Oh... seems Nadya's having one of those days. Well, that's okay, she'll just work from home today, what's the chance she'll have to go out.

It was a beautiful rainy day, Nadya's epidermis wasn't sizzling, Cooperdale was quiet with the sudden shower, and Nadya's higher ups were really impressed with her work. She even had a man at home waiting for her. Life has been good this week since Marcel arrived. Nadya had started to grow very fond of him and looked forward to seeing Marcel every day she came home from work. Because of the positive upswing, Nadya even had a surprise planned for them. But like all good things, the end is not far off.

When her cab pulled up in front of her house, Nadya discovered Marcel already on her porch, holding a present.

However, the news of Marcel leaving made her a bit sad, but the news that he was indeed going back home to his wife, angered her more. She couldn't help but ask if he was actually being serious.

But Marcel was very serious and even threatened her job. Nadya laughed his words off, but made sure he understood that he is no longer welcomed at her home.

After Marcel left, Nadya decided she wasn't staying home to wallow in her feelings. She's going to go out and have a good fuckin time tonight. So she walked down her walkway to wait for a cab to take her to a bar.

At the bar, four drinks in and Nadya had spotted a hottie dancing by the jukebox. And from the way he was looking across the room at her, there was no doubt in Nadya's drunk mind that he was feeling her too. So she went and introduced herself and when things started getting hot, she asked him if he wanted to take their fun somewhere more private.

She opened the door and greeted Marcel. Marcel, on the other hand, seemed to be off. Slurring his speech and a bit giddy. Could this be because she fed from him? A part of her didn't feel right to entertain him, he was married after all. But another part of her was curious now, and maybe even thrilled to be caught in the attention of another.

After a long silence, Marcel spoke and rather hurriedly too. Nadya didn't mind his eagerness, she was doing everything she could to hide her own excitement.

And as nightfell, the pair had gotten to know each other a bit more intimately.

While Marcel slept in her bed, Nadya snuck out for the night. So much was going on through her mind. She didn't feel tired or hungry anymore because of what she was now.

A vampire.

She was a vampire.

Thankfully, her friend called with a much needed distraction for her and went out to a bar.

Maybe she could hook up with someone cute.

Nadya had her eye on the only single guy there, but he was dancing it up for a redhead. They both were clearly into each other.

Nadya went home empty handed. But it didn't bother her. She may not have been able to find someone at the bar and that's okay because Nadya already had someone at home, waiting for her.

And of course!

Nadya's promoted. That's not a surprise.

However, finding her neighbor’s husband, Marcel Price, in her home was.

They work together at the publication firm. Now that she’s thinking about it, he did stop by her desk mentioning staying over for a bit. Something about home issues.

Nadya slips past the gloomy Marcel and into her office and starts working on *her* blog posts. Yep, she's finally writing her own things. Feels good to not be a ghostwriter!

Not too long into the night, after Nadya finished her shower, she was met with a terrible feeling. Her head was pounding, her stomach felt like it was tearing her apart from the inside out.

Heading towards her mailbox she's met with a delicious smell. And made the most shocking discovery in her life.

Now with her thirst satisfied, Nadya locked herself in her home office and did some digging on everything vampire. Maybe she could find answers on Smoogle. She managed to dm an anonymous user on Smeddit about all these new discoveries. She finally thought she could be on to something, when she heard gentle knocking on her office door.

Whatever, that’s the past, who cares about that stuff now? Besides, Nadya did something so much cooler! She bought a new home in Cooperdale. Yep, what 20-something year old sim do you know that’s buying houses fresh out of college?

This is def Simsta worthy, Nadya thought to herself while snapping a picture.

Now that we got that out of the way, it's time to work. Nadya sits down in front of her computer monitor, before getting straight into it. She just kicked off her writing career as the Writer’s Assistant for a local publication firm. Well.. she's more of a ghostwriter, but at least the pay is good.

As night fell, Nadya decided to read a book that was mysteriously left on her doorsteps… It talks a lot about a man named Orlok Straud and it's honestly got her spooked. It's claiming the existence of vampires and that this man was the one to discover a disease called Sanguinare Vampiris.

Nadya ended up spending all night reading the book. For some reason, on top of not feeling hungry, she also didn't feel tired either.

Oh well, that's a problem for later-Nadya. Right now, Nadya has to get ready for work.

That means one thing: BEFORE WORK SELFIE! Perfect for Simstagram.

Still with some time to kill, Nadya did her usual “focus girl!” meditation. This saved her tons in uni. But something feels off this time. Like she was floating in a void somewhere. Could this have anything to do with the book?

At least she feels energized and ready to tackle the day.

Generation 01: Age Gap

Welcome to the Cyprus Household, meet the girl of the hour, generation one’s heir: Nadya Cyprus. Back at Britechester University, she was the it girl on campus… Right… was. She doesn't even remember what led to her expulsion. All she remembers was getting wasted at a bar and then waking up in her dorm room, her pajama shirt covered in blood. On her room's door was a note from the Dean, saying they wanted to talk. Whatever happened that night led to Nadya’s expulsion.

Quick foreword:

Welcome to my playthrough of the Struck by Love Challenge! Just a quick warning, I did (and probably will continue) to tweak storylines for each generation, but will still stick by the generations overall theme/goal (ie. Gen 01 is Age Gap, so the sim and their partner will still have a significant age difference.)

As most of my stories tend to be, there is some adult/nsfw content. If any troubling topics are discussed, there will be warnings provided. Without further ado, enjoy!

my playthrough // hope's playthrough

[hellbornhades]

Today, as recommended by Mallory's therapist, they decided to look at themselves in the mirror for the first time since they found out they're pregnant.

Mallory had so many thoughts bubbling in their mind before they finally had enough courage to stand in front of the mirror. But now, they were face to face with themselves, and it was the first time they felt such an intense moment of happiness.

Mallory was truly in awe of what their body was doing and was looking forward to today's doctor's visit.

At the obstetrics office, Mallory was excited to finally meet their little blessing. Of course they'd first have to get through all the testing.

Finally, Ellis and Mallory sat down, eyes glued to the screen with bated breath.

After minutes of prodding, their doctor finally spoke, “Congratulations, Mallory. If you weren't so sure before, this scan has most definitely confirmed it. You're pregnant. From what I can see, you're expecting one healthy baby. Everything looks good so far, but we'll continue monitoring your pregnancy and baby's development due to your recent loss. Don't be afraid to ask me any questions, I'm here to provide the best care and support I can.”

When Mallory came home, Ellis had something he wanted to tell them. It wasn't easy, but Ellis is looking forward to their baby's arrival.

It was Summer in Henford and as life often does, everything continued on like normal. All except for Mallory.

They were still grieving their loss. Therapy wasn't working, her body dysmorphia made things harder for them. Ellis had pushed Mallory's focus on wedding planning, hoping it'd make them feel better. He even took time off from studying for his university entrance exam. The busy work had helped, but they were unsure if things would ever truly feel okay.

Today as they were getting ready to call their event coordinator, Mallory felt extremely sick to their stomach. Mallory began to wonder…

To their surprise, they were indeed pregnant. And though this should be a happy moment, it was anything but for Mallory right now. What will Ellis think…?

Mallory sat down with Ellis in the living room who was enjoying his day off from work with a little Cross-stitching project and listening to his favorite music.

Finding out Ellis' feelings towards their pregnancy set Mallory off but seeing him cry made them hold their tongue and try to comfort them. They'd definitely need to try counseling together to see if maybe Ellis would feel differently about this.

Mallory has had a lot on their mind. After their last discussion, the two hadn't been talking or interacting much since.

Mallory has started to doubt getting married to Ellis. It was clear they were on two opposite sides when it came to children.

But that night, Mallory had a little more hope that things would work out.

The next week flew by in a blur. Amidst their daily jog out in Bramblewoods, Ellis and Mallory hung out more and more. Growing closer and closer with every date, visit, and kiss. Eventually Mallory asked Ellis to move in and not too long after Ellis moved in, he did something that surprised them both.

Down on one knee, he looked up at Mallory, holding a box up towards them, “You're the only one I want to wake up next to every single day. When I see you, I get glimpses of what our future might look like. And it's beautiful. Truly. And I want all that and more with you.”

Mallory held their breath as Ellis opened the box revealing a diamond ring nestled inside. He gave them an awkward smile, his nerves showing in his eyes, “Mallory Hampton, my love, will you marry me?”

Obviously, Mallory said yes. And that night, Ellis wasted no time in showing Mallory how much he loves them.

⚠️ Trigger Warning: Pregnancy Complication/Pregnancy Loss ⚠️

The following story posts discusses potentially triggering topics. You can skip ahead to the next section [here], if you're uncomfortable with these topics. Otherwise continue reading below.

===========================

As the two got familiar in their routines and continued their lives, Mallory working on their writings and Ellis focusing on his studies for his university application, and as always, things got outta hand.

And rather fast.

The day had started fairly normal, Ellis was outside looking to the stars and Mallory should have been preparing breakfast, but instead Mallory had been rushed to the hospital. It was there they discovered Mallory was pregnant. The pregnancy wasn't viable and had to be terminated.

Once home, Mallory told Ellis to have a seat. Mallory exhaled slowly while he waited patiently. They looked in his eyes and felt tears welling up in their own. Mallory wished she had better news to give him…
