I’ve decided not to rebuild this iteration of Kulo Seeri - I’m just starting over at a point before I played any of my households. However, I am giving my sims one rotation without ROS or blogging - unless something major happens in my game that I can’t not share. And something did.

The older guy in this pic is Abraxius Platinum, NPC head warlock turned senior husband of Headwoman Etan mi-Avira. The younger woman who’s flirting with him is Kuona, Etan’s daughter. No, Kuona and Abraxius are not biologically related. However, there is a law in the tribe, written by Etan, that any spouses of your mother, grandmother etc. are off-limits - usually I use Found Family to set that, but I forgot in this case.

Now, if they’d just stayed flirting in the bush, they might have been able to cover it up. But no...

Abraxius had to put some ACR moves on a couple of other visitors to the Heart of the Village... who also happen to be gods. The one in the red robe, hugging Abraxius in the above pic, is the Seeker - god of self-awareness, intuition and the pursuit of knowledge and enlightenment (and is also sort of my simself). The blonde dragon god in the corner there is Air - god of creativity, agility, inspiration and freedom - who Abraxius also flirted with in front of Kuona. I don’t have a picture of that...

...but as you can see, Kuona took it badly. It actually degenerated into her slapping and poking both Air and the Seeker repeatedly before the sim I was controlling went home. All that has to have consequences (for Kuona in particular) but I’m not sure what.

To add insult to injury, Abraxius is not my type. :P

First day of the first household in rotation 1 can mean only one thing: time to send my sims round all the finished community lots so I can get the households mingling, re-establish relationships, gather resources and block NPCs off all the lots with Visitor Controller. So Headwoman Etan’s two teen daughters, Tabiltamyuli and Kuona, start the rounds with a trip to Ancient Crab Rock - that’s the beach next to Teal Camp, and yes, the acronym is deliberate.

Myuli immediately heads for the shore, sculpting a sand replica of a structure she’d seen in one of her mentors’ lorebooks. Since I didn’t do my usual “maxmotives on startup” Day 1 thing, the girls are hungry, so once the project is complete Myuli goes to cook some sausages. Kuona stays by the lake, imagining what it would be like to explore beneath the water.

Kuvato, who’s betrothed to the girls’ aunt Yulica, joins his soon-to-be nieces for some snackage - I wonder if him and Yulica are considering expanding the family already?

The final couple to tie the knot, Kuona mi-Avira (the only non-spare in the bunch, who will be starting headwoman of the subhood) and glimmer Dudley Gilwoody, will be founding the ghost line. Once again, there’s an initial reluctance - twice. However it’s third time lucky for Kuona and Dudley, and they’re ready to start their life together as spirits. (Note to self: change Kuona’s ghost type. I can hardly see her in that last pic!)

I also just remembered I forgot to get pics of my vampire couple, Hudana zan-Avira and the batsim (called a zyrza in the Seeriverse). Batsim in my game retained the name Desma from the Sims2pack file, and I gave her the last name Yew because it was the first name that sprang to mind. Sorry Hudana and Desma - it was very dark when I turned them into vampires, obviously, so the pics wouldn’t have been brilliant anyway. 😉

Headwoman Etan’s daughter Kuona somehow managed to join this hunting trip, despite not having gone through the rites of passage yet. Zyulo spotted an opportunity and engaged kid mode...

Zyulo: Nyah!

Zyulo: Also, you’re really kinda cute.

Kuona: Aww!

Mini Lorepost: Kuona mi-Avira, like her sister Myuli and their second cousin Nita, is a seer. All seers in the Seeriverse have a bane associated with their gift - Kuona’s is inconsistent ageing. Two iterations ago, this kicked in and took her from six to sixteen in an instant; she still thinks more like a six-band-old, so hasn’t gone through the rites of adulthood yet. As the premades also exist in the Seeriverse as the Elephant Sea Alliance, I decided that this is also my explanation for the ageing inconsistencies between Bella and her brother Michael Bachelor across the Sims games.

Sims Happy Moments Game

I think we could all do with some feel-good sim-related stuff right now, so here’s a little game: post the happiest things you’ve done or seen happen in your game recently! Any of the Sims titles, any aspect of the game - have you just completed your legacy? Learned to mod, mesh, or make new content of any sort? Built a lot that you’re really proud of? Discovered something new in your game that you really love doing? Share it! Pics always welcome - show us your decorating skills, your first mesh, or your newborn Gen10 heir! And don’t forget to tag “sims happy moments game” so I and others can find your contribution. :)

I’ll start: Today in my game Etan mi-Avira, headwoman of Kulo Seeri, gave birth to twin daughters named Kuona and Setila. That takes the total of eligible successors to four. Here’s a picture of Etan holding Kuona, with her husband Melchol holding Setila and a sacred cat watching disinterestedly from the birthing seat.

Queen Little is not amused by these tiny furless interlopers.
