◈ ⟣ the crystallized legacy ⟢ ◈

welcome to the crystallized legacy challenge, a 12-generation challenge inspired by birthstones! after making my enneagram challenge, i wanted to create something with all the ideas i had left over, so after a year of toiling, here we are! ik there's other crystals challenges out there and prob already a birthstones challenge, but this is my interpretation ♡ this challenge is definitely more drama and story-heavy than my last challenge, but i hope you guys enjoy the chaos just as much as i do xx

due to the nature of the actual birthstones, colours are repeated. however, i have added lists of the possible variations the stones come in, so you can choose whatever colour you see fit!

RULES:

money cheats are allowed unless otherwise stated (for example, gens 1 and 5)

play on normal lifespan

story prompts are optional. you can use them if you want, but feel free to interpret the rules however you wish—that’s the fun part of playing a challenge!

all goals must be met before moving onto the next heir. unless otherwise stated, you must complete both the career and aspiration.

if you don’t have a pack that goes with a certain skill/aspiration/trait, substitute as you see fit! however, this is easier for some gens than others

optional bonus challenge: have every heir be born during the season associated with their month/stone!

if you play, please credit me! @loyaltrait on instagram & @macabrewhims on tumblr. use the #crystallizedlegacy tag so we can all follow along!

packs majorly used (heavily involved in gameplay and rules): lovestruck, get famous, city living, island living, discover university, growing together, get to work, jungle adventures, for rent, parenthood

packs minorly used (easiest to substitute): eco lifestyle, spa day, snowy escape, outdoor retreat, cats & dogs, seasons, high school years

GEN 1: january / garnet (red)

ASPIRATION: romantic explorer

CAREER: freelancer

TRAITS: lovebug, loyal, maker

garnets symbolise love and vitality, and you are an endless fountain of both. you wear your heart on your sleeve, always looking for the one, but is your eagerness your downfall? after a particularly bad breakup and a particularly good stroke of fate, you learn that you’ve inherited your great-grandaunt’s house, and it happens to be far enough away that you think this can be your fresh start. you vow to put your heartbreak behind you and stop seeking out a relationship, but do old habits die hard?

garnets can come in a wide variety of colours, most notably deep red, as well as blue, pink, green, and orange.

☆ move into an old home with outdated decor and only §10,000. you can only redecorate with money you earn from freelancing or with things you craft

☆ master the romance and entrepreneur skills

☆ have your first child (the heir) unplanned. break up with their other parent when they’re a toddler.

☆ date at least 5 other sims, but never marry

☆ have at least one date per week with whoever your partner is at the time

STORY PROMPTS:

— your crusade to not seek out a relationship has landed you in the middle of someone else’s—you’re an affair partner. do you ditch the cheater or think you can fix them?

— luck and love are never hand-in-hand for you. just when you think you’ve found the one, tragedy strikes and they die. can you let them go, or will that love haunt you for the rest of your life?

GEN 2: february / amethyst (purple)

ASPIRATION: mansion baron

CAREER: business

TRAITS: proper, hates children, romantically reserved

amethysts have long been associated with royalty, so it’s only fitting that you’re just as regal. you watched your parent get their heart broken more times than you can count, and you vow you’ll never be the same. the disdain you have for your chaotic upbringing makes you crave order—and with it, wealth. love has never been a priority to you, nor has family. but money? the closest thing you’ve ever felt to being in love has been watching your bank balance skyrocket.

amethysts are almost always purple.

☆ master the logic and violin skills

☆ gain the workaholic lifestyle

☆ have a child—either adopted or as a science baby—to secure your legacy. and immediately relinquish all parenting responsibilities to the nanny. (this does not have to be your only child)

☆ lecture your child on misbehaviour often and never have a relationship past ‘friends’ and have a “difficult” family dynamic.

☆ marry a sim you have no or very low friendship with

STORY PROMPTS:

— you’re approached one day with the biggest merger possible: marriage. not a real marriage though, don’t worry. there may not be love between you and your spouse, but it’s a great cover for insider trading. that is, if you can keep it loveless.

— your child(ren) is just a vessel for your own goals. you are always harsh on them because you want them to be the best. but do you eventually see the error of your ways and try to ease up on them?

GEN 3: march / aquamarine (teal)

ASPIRATION: city native

CAREER: lawyer

TRAITS: loves outdoors, child of the ocean, creative

like your birthstone, you’ve always felt an affinity with the ocean and its vastness. all you’ve ever wanted was to escape, both the city and your family. you were always pressured to be the best, lest you bring shame to the family name. but after a life of living for others, it finally all comes to a head. the burnout finally gets the best of you and you decide to follow your dreams and move to the beach, getting away from your parents’ clutches once and for all. is this where you finally find happiness?

aquamarines range from soft greens to soft blues.

☆ complete the city native as a young adult before moving to either tartosa or sulani.

☆ master one creative skill of your choice + research and debate

☆ have a bad relationship with your parents and go no contact with them after you move away

☆ meet the love of your life as an adult and have children (as many as you want). you have a permissive relationship with them and spoil them with the love you never had

☆ quit your job when you move and get by on either your partner’s income or money earned from your creative hobby

STORY PROMPTS:

— your poor relationship with your parents has always been suffocating, but you have always craved their acceptance nonetheless. they try to set you up with a business partner’s kid to secure a deal, and you get engaged to please them. do you leave them at the alter or respectfully break it off before you go?

— you take vacations frequently while still living in the city to spare your sanity. while on one of them, you meet a diving instructor and hit it off. do you rekindle things when you finally move or do you seek new beginnings?

GEN 4: april / diamond (white)

ASPIRATION: world famous celebrity

CAREER: athlete

TRAITS: active, self-absorbed, materialistic

you were always the crown jewel of the family: firstborn, spoiled rotten, and killer athletic talent. your parents put you into your chosen sport young, and you were competing at national levels before you even hit puberty, making your professional debut when you were 15. you’re the #1 in the world now, and damn does it feel good. until you fly too close to the sun, that is.

diamonds can come in a variety of colours, but are most commonly clear.

☆ progress quickly in your career and gain status as a global superstar

☆ when you’re at the top of your game, you get too cocky. after a particularly nasty scandal, you get disgraced, losing your career and taking a major hit to your fame.

☆ master the fitness and mixology skills

☆ have a career change as an adult, either business or social media

☆ gradually raise your reputation back with an image change, donating frequently to charities.

STORY PROMPTS:

— losing your career means slowly losing your lavish lifestyle, and you can not let that happen. you quickly find a celebrity partner and marry them. is it all lust and convenience, or is there something deeper there?

— you have a flippant relationship with parenting, you’d rather splash money at your kids than actually parent them. does losing your reputation give you the wake up call you need to be a more present parent?

GEN 5: may / emerald (green)

ASPIRATION: inner peace

CAREER: salaryperson

TRAITS: vegetarian, loner, neat

emeralds are associated with security and balance, and all you’ve ever longed for has been some semblance of order. your parent’s mercurial celebrity status was always a source of stress for you. why couldn’t they just be normal? you turn your back on the world of fame and excess and embrace the mundane: a quiet suburb, an office job, a healthy lifestyle. a simple life. but can your life ever actually be simple?

emeralds vary in shade, but are always green.

☆ move out of your parents’ house with only §15,000 simoleons when you go to university. you must live in a dorm and take out student loans for the duration of your degree

☆ master the piano and wellness skills

☆ move to any suburban world after graduating university and live there for the rest of your life

☆ attend yoga classes at least once a week

☆ have a close relationship with your child(ren) and build them a treehouse

STORY PROMPTS:

— you change your surname after moving out of your parents’ house in an effort not to be seen as a nepo baby. after years in relative obscurity, someone finally picks up on your true lineage, and threatens to blackmail you over it.

— after years of low contact, your parent contacts you to make amends. you find this suspicious but accept anyways, until you learn there’s a catch. what is it and will it strain your relationship further?

GEN 6: june / pearl (white)

ASPIRATION: soulmate

CAREER: astronaut

TRAITS: self-assured, squeamish, practice makes perfect

pearls are often associated with the moon, and most if your childhood was spent staring at the skies in wonder. you liked your quiet life, but you always wanted more. all it takes is one high school career day to cement your dream forever: becoming an astronaut. you train rigorously for your day in space, but just when the dream is finally in reach, you are faced with an impossible choice: love or the stars?

pearls are known for having a shiny, cream-coloured hue, though other colours are possible.

☆ complete at least one child and one teen aspiration

☆ master the rocket science and programming skills

☆ pick between completing your career or completing your aspiration. right before you reach your final promotion, choose between your job or staying with your spouse

☆ meet your spouse young, either as high school sweethearts or in university. they are the only person you ever date

☆ go to sixam and complete the geodes collection

STORY PROMPTS:

— you think you’re doing well at managing your career and your marriage, but you’re oblivious to the obvious cracks and your spouse’s frayed feelings. they are the one to offer you the ultimatum: me or space.

— your youngest child is the “problem” child, and you never seem to get along. no matter what you do, you can’t seem to form a bond with them. but are you really trying as hard as you could be, or are they another casualty of your career blinders?

GEN 7: july / ruby (red)

ASPIRATION: public enemy

CAREER: criminal and then politician

TRAITS: family-oriented, mean, hot-headed (later lose either mean or hot-headed through gameplay)

rubies are the stone of passion, and your passion has always felt all-consuming. as the youngest and least disciplined of your siblings, you were always the firecracker of the family, ready to burst at any moment. no one ever understood you—or so you believed—and it hardened you. a life of crime only seemed like a natural progression to you, until you found someone who saw the good in you and vowed to do anything to protect them and start over. anything.

though rubies are most often red, there are also deep magenta and purple varieties.

☆ have a bad relationship with your parents and move out as a teen to start university early.

☆ major in psychology and choose the criminal career

☆ master the mischief and parenting skills

☆ when you are halfway through your career progression, meet a sim with opposite traits to yours and fall in love. quit your career to give them a safer life and have a family together

☆ while your children are still very young (infants or toddlers), complete the last tier of the public enemy aspiration and witness another sim die. go into “witness protection” and relocate your family as far away as possible. you and your family members must all change your names.

STORY PROMPTS:

— once you are settled in your new life, you find a passion for community organising. you enter the politician career hoping the make a change, but the threat of your past catching up to you is always lingering.

— old habits die hard, and the fiercely protective side of you never goes away. you loathe your child’s partner and think they’re not good enough for them. when your suspicions are proven right, do you dispose of them or leave it to karma?

GEN 8: august / peridot (green)

ASPIRATION: friend of the world

CAREER: social media

TRAITS: high maintenance, kleptomaniac, music lover

peridot is the stone of good fortune, and your parents always called you their lucky charm. you’ve always been, cherished, bubbly, and popular, it’s just in your nature. you love making friends, but more than that, you love attention. you have a natural talent for reeling people in, and realised early that your type of charisma can be…useful. it’s not your fault other people are so easily fooled, is it? perhaps the apple doesn’t fall far enough from the tree, despite your parents’ best efforts…

peridots are a bright green, often with yellow undertones.

☆ master the charisma and photography skills

☆ steal at least one item from every friend you have

☆ host some sort of social event every week

☆ marry young but let the relationship fizzle out. as your relationship declines, start an affair. you decide whether to divorce or live a lie

☆ at least one of your children (the next heir) must come from your affair

STORY PROMPTS:

— you’ve known your best friend since you were in diapers, and you’ve always wanted the best for them. but there’s a part of you that’s always been envious of them. when their new partner catches your eye, can you hold yourself back?

— alternatively, the jealousy you feel for your best friend swings the other way. you loathe their new partner and try to fight down the gnawing feeling…that it should be you on their arm instead.

GEN 9: september / sapphire (blue)

ASPIRATION: curator

CAREER: doctor

TRAITS: generous, cat or dog lover, goofball

sapphires are associated with innocence and clarity, and by some miracle, you were blessed with the purest heart this family has seen in generations. all you’ve ever wanted to help people, but your big heart tends to get you into trouble sometimes. you fight fiercely for your patients…even if that means bending a few rules to save a few lives. but if it’s in the name of the greater good, it’s not that bad…right?

sapphires are most known as blue, but green, pink, purple and peach-hued varieties exist.

☆ master the guitar and pet training skills

☆ complete three collections of your choice

☆ always have a pet in your household

☆ fall in love with a patient you treat at the hospital

☆ donate at least §1000 to charity every week

STORY PROMPTS:

— you’ve always loved a story of forbidden love, and what’s more forbidden than falling for your patient? after respectfully transferring their care to another doctor to avoid any moral conflicts, you pursue a relationship. but you suspect their new doctor isn’t giving them the care they deserve. do you put your faith in your colleague, or do you sabotage them to help the one you love?

— your charitable heart might be more trouble than its worth. a friend asks you to invest in their business, and you realise a little too late that their business isn’t exactly legit. do you quietly withdraw your support or are you along for the (potentially illegal) ride?

GEN 10: october / opal (any colour)

ASPIRATION: seeker of secrets

CAREER: secret agent

TRAITS: nosy, noncommittal, ambitious

like the enchanting shift of an opal’s colours, you have always lived a life on contrast and balance. fresh out of university, you were approached with an unbelievable offer: the chance to be a secret agent. now, you attune yourself with that changeable nature—you are whoever you need to be for a particular job, the real you doesn’t matter. but do you even know the real you? is there even a “real” you under all those disguises?

opals are known for their unique blend of colours, and can come in any combination of shades.

☆ master the video gaming and handiness skills

☆ change your hair colour (or another easily changeable aspect of your appearance) once per sim week

☆ marry a fellow secret agent and settle down in a quiet town and never reveal your real jobs to your children

☆ your two oldest children must be twins, regardless of how many children you have

☆ have at least 5 enemies, one of which must be a coworker

STORY PROMPTS:

— love finds a way even in the most unexpected of places, it seems. you meet the love of your life on a mission, but it seems your rival has feelings for them too. does everyone survive the love triangle?

— it’s hard to balance spying and parenting, but somehow you find a balance between the two. so what if that involves blackmailing a few school prinicpals?

GEN 11: november / topaz (yellow)

ASPIRATION: master chef

CAREER: chef

TRAITS: bookworm, foodie, erratic

topaz is believed to be a powerful stone for soothing, and to you there’s nothing as soothing as cooking. there was never anything other than culinary school even on your radar, and your first restaurant becomes an overnight success. you are obsessed with crafting the perfect dish. your twin refuses to let you fall down that rabbit hole and endlessly begs to set you up on a blind date to get you out into the world. when you finally relent, do you find your missing ingredient?

topaz comes in a variety of colours, but orange, yellow, and brown shades are most common.

☆ master the cooking and writing skills

☆ write at least one cookbook

☆ own a five-star restaurant

☆ meet your eventual partner on a blind date set up by your twin

☆ have a supportive family dynamic with your child(ren) and invite them to cook with you frequently

STORY PROMPTS:

— your restaurant is consuming your life and you know it. you find it hard to balance running the restaurant and being a good parent. do you sell the restaurant to focus on your family or do you still desperately try to juggle both?

— when your parents become elders, you try to convince them to move in with your family so you can care for them, but they stubbornly decline. do you push the issue or let it rest?

GEN 12: december / turquoise (teal)

ASPIRATION: archaeology scholar

CAREER: gardener (botanist branch)

TRAITS: clumsy, green fiend, socially awkward

turquoise is known as a truth stone, and you have always wondered the truth about…well, everything. your first word was “why?” and you haven’t stopped asking it since. your curiosity is endless, and your interests have always been rather…ecological. since you were a child, you’ve dreamed of going to selvadorada to study the ruins and the expansive jungle around them. now, that goal is closer than ever, and you can’t help but build a fantasy around it in your head. but do you let the fear of disappointment hold you back from making your dream a reality, or do you push through and chase your dreams regardless?

just like the colour named after it, turquoise are a vibrant teal.

☆ master the gardening and archaeology skills

☆ have a close relationship with your grandparents, becoming best friends with at least one of them

☆ save up to go to selvadorada as often as possible, at least once per season. or, if you have a mod that permits it, live there year-round

☆ never get into a romantic relationship until you go on your first selvadorada trip, where you meet the love of your life on an archaeological dig

☆ never have biological children. you may adopt if you want to

STORY PROMPTS:

— you were always close with your grandparent because they always encouraged your curiosity. after they pass away, you find out they weren’t the sweet old grandparents you thought they were, they were spies. what do you do with the information you find?

— you’ve never wanted a family of your own, but your partner does. do you stay adamant about not having children, or do have a change of heart and adopt?

What to expect

Welcome to the OFFICIAL PAGE for the Legacy Stories Challenge made by: MissLollypop — The Storyteller and erinthesimmer — The Elaborator :)

Do you ever find yourself repeating the same steps as me? Create A Sim > Build a house > Have kids > Get bored. Yes? That's why I created this challenge! I have written realistic stories us to play out in the Sims. I also incorporated rules and aspirations that I feel the characters would want to achieve in relation to their story.

This challenge focuses on gameplay goals as well as skill based and career based goals, so a little bit for everyone!

NOTE: I WILL BE MAKING A SECOND VERSION THAT IS UNMODDED ONCE I HAVE 5 GENERATIONS WRITTEN

PSA

Want to change something? Go ahead! I didn't create this challenge in mind to restrict you, if you feel something else would suit a specific generation better, change it! I just hope you enjoy playing and get some ideas from the stories! Bare in mind some of these stories could be triggering for some people with sensitivity around Death, Trauma and Drugs. Everything that could potentially happen IRL, could also occur within these stories as personally I love to play as realistically as possible.

Checklist

Click here to get a link to a checklist, which you can make a copy of for yourself, to keep track of all the goals for each generation.

────────────────────────────────────────────

Rules

No money cheats (unless stated otherwise in the rules for story telling purposes)

No mods that make the game easier, we love a struggle here.

You may do anything outside the rules unless stated otherwise eg. If the generation requires to max a specific skill, you may still max other nonrelated skills.

You must complete the goals in each generation to fully complete it, however, if you would like the move onto the next generation as a toddler and come back to the previous generation after, that is also fine as long as you still complete everything.

Complete the goals in order for the story to make the most sense.

Any other children's traits can be selected, it's only the heir's traits that must be according to the rules.

There is a colour palette for each generation, this will be your sims favourite colours. Try to pick clothes/hair and decorate their home with this colour to correlate with each generation.

────────────────────────────────────────────

The Game Requirements

Many of the generations include multiple packs, therefore, it is recommended that you have all of them installed. If you don't have them you can always tweak the generations rules to change depending on which packs you own.

You must play with lifespan on Normal.

────────────────────────────────────────────

Mod Requirements For All Gens

These are the mods that will be required for ALL of the generations. There are also requirements per generation that you will need (these are shown in the generation breakdown) but aren't required for all generations.

Career Overhaul Suite

SNBank Bills

MC Command Centre (optional but highly recommended).

The Generations

Generation 1 - "Criminal has mid-life crisis and becomes a super parent"

Story: Growing up you were unloved and uncared for, consistently abandoned by parents that never gave you a second thought. As a result, you have found yourself with unpredictable emotions and a complete disinterest in maintaining a relationship with your family. When you become a teenager you decide enough is enough and run away without a second thought, comforted to know as an only-child there aren’t any siblings being left behind. With no consistent parental figure in your life instilling the importance and the impact of having a well-rounded education in your later life, you never attend a single lesson again. Having always struggled to fit in and find your crowd in school, there was nobody to miss you and question your complete disappearance. Instead, you spend your time taking advantage of kind strangers who welcome you into their home by stealing their valuable possessions to later sell. Your next meal relies on what’s been thrown into the dumpster that day, and with any luck, what collectables you happen to come across with value to sell.

During this time in your life you happen to meet the local drug dealer that is happy to take you on and train you in the business, thus beginning your criminal career. You begin your young adult life as a new yet reputable dealer with your lack of morals helping you go far in your career. Over time you work your way up in your career, gaining the respect of your peers and your superiors. And yet you’re left feeling unsatisfied. Unhappy. Here you are making a reputable name for yourself, morally or immorally, and it doesn’t feel like enough. You’re now older, wiser… and ready for more for your life. More than the life of crime. As an adult you meet somebody that has you reconsidering everything. They encourage the best version of yourself and lead you to re-evaluate all your choices until this moment. For the first time in your life, you see the joy and love to be found within a family through somebody else’s eyes. Dreaming for the one thing you swore you never needed… a family of your own with the right partner by your side. With the full support of your partner, you walk away from the criminal career and settle into your newfound life. A life filled with the white picket fence and 2 and ½ kids fantasy come true. Parenthood brings forward the anxiety and fear of not being good enough to provide a stable environment for your children. And yet despite your terrible upbringing you dedicate the rest of your days being the best parent and role-model that you can be. Helping your children with their homework, reading them stories, toddler playdates. If they want it, you give it. In the end the life of crime wasn’t your true calling… It was to be an incredible parent. And within that role you have finally found your self-worth.

Generation 2 - E-Sports Geek makes a life changing decision

Story: You grew up a very happy child, your parents loved you and supported you with everything wanted to do. However, you were always a little different to your sibling/siblings, you were the shy and reserved one, you would much rather have spent time reading or doing your homework, than outside and never really had many friends growing up. But when you were a toddler, your parents introduced you to one of your next door neighbours' toddler and you fell in love, well as much as you can do at 3 years old... You continued to spend your childhood growing up with your best friend, keeping your crush on them a secret. You spent a lot of time gaming at home with your crush, who was very much like you, a little nerdy. Your mum/dad had lived a rough life and always warned you of the dangers going on outside when they were a criminal, so you chose to spend your free time, safe at home. However, they would still drag you to the park sometimes to try to encourage you to be 'normal'. Some might call you a little paranoid, but you would rather be paranoid and safe at home, than up to mischief like the rest of your siblings. You found this put a slight bump in your relationship with your parents though, as they were much more outgoing and thought you were a little strange to want to spend all your time inside. When you become a teenager, you finally open up to your crush about your feelings, well great thing is, they feel the same way back! You get your first girlfriend/boyfriend and end up making some friends at your local arcade, that you start up a club with. You finally come out of your shell a little and begin going to the geek convention, which you go to with your friends every time it's on in the City. When you were a little older, you set your goals on University to study Computer Science whilst also becoming an e-sports competitor, luckily your girlfriend/boyfriend is also coming to the same University as you. You go on to work as an e-sports gamer and excel at it. However, you're not very money driven and you do it for the passion. Everything was looking up in your life you get engaged to your girlfriend/boyfriend, when straight after they confess that they cheated on your with your friend. It is your choice from there, where your story goes. Will you stay with your partner and make it work? Or will you call it quits and continue your life without them?

When you’re younger a friend invites you round to their home, you turn up to their mansion, shocked. This is it, this is what you want. You’re ambitious and super popular in school and you spend a large majority of your teenage life partying, you learnt your way around love very early and realized it’s incredibly easy to get what you want, when you are in someone’s bed…

After you finish school you get hired by this BIG SHOT Business, it’s your first day. This is it; you will be fabulously wealthy and everyone will know your name! Reality: You’re the runt. How can you run this joint? Get in the boss's bed, that’s how. There are 9 bosses above you and you woohoo with everyone of them to get promoted. Until that is, just before you reach the top of your career you get pregnant with the CEO’s baby! You’re certainly not going to tell them and risk losing the CEO position, a baby with the boss could ruin that. So you lie and tell them it’s not theirs, but you keep it, who else will continue your famous dynasty when you die?

Generation 4 - "Gay is the way"

Story: You grew up feeling very lonely with the family butler as your primary carer, with a workaholic parent who prioritized their career over everything and not knowing your other parent. However, after your acceptance into a prestigious private school you find yourself meeting like-minded individuals that you bond with and form a close-knit friend group. One night you find yourself sharing an unexpected kiss with a friend of the same-sex. That one kiss ruins a friendship that you truly valued, leading you to believe that it had all been a mistake.

You graduate high school and move onto university to study Biology in the hopes of getting away from your parent and becoming a marine biologist. As a young child the family butler would always read you bedtime stories about the sea and the animals that lived within. This ignited your love and passion for marine life.

After graduating you move to Sulani to pursue your life-long dream. One day at work, you unexpectedly meet a perfect stranger, also a conservationist, and bond over your love for the ocean. You fall in love with this perfect stranger, get married and have children. A family. This should be the dream… right? Except it isn’t. Something seems to be missing, a part of yourself long buried. Eventually you are hit with the realization that whilst you love your partner… you aren’t in love with them. Fear and guilt over what could be ruined but no longer willing to deny yourself the chance of true happiness, you come out to your spouse as gay. As terrifying as it is you cannot force yourself to stay in a marriage, happy or not. You and your spouse deserve more. You file for divorce.

Is the divorce mutual with understanding and love? Will you remain friends committed to your family unit?

No matter the outcome you go on and fall in love once more, for the first time in your life being completely honest with yourself in what you seek with a partner. You and your same-sex partner go on to adopt a child into your family and finally… your family is complete.

Generation 5 - "Parting is such sweet sorrow."

Story: From the very beginning of your life, you valued the importance of having a family. You believe that biological and found family are one and the same. You’re a true romantic at heart and an all-round cheerful person, it’s no surprise that you are often found curled up enjoying the latest romance novel that you could get your hands on. The romantic interests in the novels set the tone for what you expect from your own romantic prospects. No gesture is too great, and you often spend your time daydreaming about what romance high school could bring. The time comes for you to attend high school, it is within those very school walls you happen upon your person that you wish to spend the rest of your life with. The books had it right. The sappy, passionate and emotional turmoil that is teenage relationships. You fully invest yourself into that person and the relationship, and they in turn return the sentiment. Despite the warnings from your parents to not set your hopes up too high, you know that this is your soulmate.

With the end of high school comes adult life, and not wanting to waste any time your partner gets down on one knee and asks you to marry them. With a delighted “yes!” you know the rest of your life is about to begin. Not long after moving into your new home you and your partner discover that you are expecting a baby. What should’ve been the happiest and most joyful experience of your life turns into your worst nightmare. Just before the arrival of the baby, your partner unexpectedly dies. The fairy tales in your favourite romance novels never covered this soul-destroying experience. Feeling utterly alone and heartbroken with an infant to care for. Your dream family has been shattered. With a child utterly dependent on you for survival, you decide to pursue writing to support your family. Becoming a freelance author is all you could have ever dreamed of, and yet you find yourself struggling to put words onto paper without your partner by your side. How will you adapt to being a single parent and overcome the struggles that come with it? Will your novels become best sellers or utter failures? Will you ever move on from your lost love and marry again?

Generation 6 - "It’s a beautiful day to save lives."

Story: “Where there is love there is life.” All you have ever been told is that the very root of life is love itself. Without love, life will never hold any fulfilment or joy or peace. Being raised by a romance author should have you believing in these very desires. And yet the biggest lesson you have learned is that where there is love there is great sorrow. The loss of your independent sense of self. Love should be the greatest challenge that brings the greatest rewards and yet when you think of love, you picture your single parent. Their anguish over their lost love. To never again feel entirely whole. You couldn’t think of a worse fate than to fall in love. Growing up in the shadow of a deceased parent you never truly knew haunts your every step. To feel the absence of a person who never got to help you with your homework or give you dating advice, and to feel like you must step up for your parent and replace that empty space in their heart. You vow to yourself that you will never find yourself in that position. You will never fall in love. Having known just how short life can be, you intend to live your life in fulfilment of everything except love. After graduating university, you go on to become a successful doctor. Your career is very important to you, and you enjoy being able to care for the most vulnerable. However, a time consuming and high-ranking career cannot dampen your adventurous streak. One of your lifelong goals is to climb the highest mountain in Mt. Komorebi. As a non-committal sim you like to date around without exclusivity, generally with multiple sims at one time. One night you are attending yet another party and find yourself having unprotected woohoo with three different sims in one night, two of which are co-workers and another whom you met outside of your working environment.

Outside of work you’ve never truly cared about responsibilities and expectations, and the consequence of this lifestyle eventually catches up with you when you find yourself pregnant, with no knowledge to which of those three sims is the other parent to your child. You suddenly find yourself with a greater responsibility than you could have ever anticipated. After doing a paternity test to determine the parent to your child, you both must proceed on how to go forward. Does the other parent even want to become a parent themselves? Do they wish to be a part of their child’s life? And if so, what is the best route to take? Do you co-parent separately, or do you decide to give this family unit a chance and raise the child together? Is it worth it for your child to take a chance on love, despite having first-hand knowledge of what sadness it could bring? Or is the non-committal life what’s right for you through to the end?
