Braywood Foundation for Youth Welfare

This is the place many stories started in my game. This organisation exists since my time with The Sims 3. Currently there are 3 houses for kidz, teenager and young adult who needed a place to live. House 1 and 2 are for kidz, teenager and young adult found abandoned or from a poor parents home or students needing a living community. House 3 is for toddler and childs only.

The buildings are located in Newcrest. On the title image above you see

Braywood House 1

on the left, the place I park foreign Sims / NPC’s for a while as long as I need them to play, mainly are living girls in. It is an makeover of the lovley 'College  House’ created by                                 gallery name:  DRDS1807

Braywood House 2

on the right, in fact it is the place I bring new characters into game, which have no family tree, they first move in or characters from stories move in on their way to get their own story.

It is one of the most played places in my game, so most stories started here.                    It is an makeover of the lovley ‘Dormitory’ created by                                  gallery name:  fernandasimoes (FS Design) the build is unfortunately not longer availabe in her gallery. In Sims 3 it was another build of course - Jolene Winter (Conroy Clan - story here) and her younger sister Lynn Winter grew up there. Jolene is the ancestor of my Conroy Clan -> start story here she is the wife of Saint Conroy the Clanleader, who, in the story, donates the Braywood Foundation generously and is a member of the board team. Raven BC-Doe (Best-Conroy) - The Wizard of Ravenyard lived here after he left his home, leaving his hated foster father and unfortunatly his siblings behind. He as well is a part of the Conroy Clan not knowing this, cause he is Jaxx Winter-Conroys lost son.

Lynn moved out to follow her career before Raven moved in and before Ben Travain got the responsible youth worker and leader of House 2 (since Sims 4). She met Ben years later during a holiday in Granite Falls and she moved in again, having a relationship with Ben for some years. Before that, she had an affair with David Stone, got pregnant with Chase Winter-Stone, who grew up in House 3 mainly.

Lynn and David

Noah Travain moved in the house to his older brother Ben in preperation for his education at Britchester University, were he later studied Culinary Arts and met Chris Kehala at university. Chris moved in Braywood House heavy in love with Noah until both buyed their own home, located in the direct neighborhood.

Apple Farmers - The Banks Family

Some words to their creation. I first created Delsin experimentating with cc stuff and I was very satisfied with the result - so I put him in my game, he was at the state after the story. So I had a part of his character in mind from begin, but never thought of spinning a story around. He lived in the Sulani Islander living commuity with Jason Namakaheha (cc version 1 - cc version younger - nocc version)

and Dylan Clayton (cc version - nocc version)

focused on Island Living Pack trying out gaming it. After a while I created a girl thinking of where to put her, so she moved in the community as well. He interacted very fine with Lilly from beginning. I played other households in meantime and only stepped in there from time to time, but Delsin always was an eyecatcher in my game when he appeared anywhere, I always recognized him from far or in a group. And about an half year later I discovered LuniverSims Tray Importer (thanks for that magnific tool btw) and experimentated with poses and backgrounds to merge - started Luke Vydashs story at first (this is a different heart project - I’m not sure about to publish it here before it is really ready and the thematic is a bit difficult stuff). So I thought it would be great to have a native camp in my game, always was fascinated by them by myself ;). So things started to happen and the firewalker story was born. But it was a need to create their families, cause only telling the past, even though its the main part of it wasn’t enaugh, I wanted to play it and I created them. I have them in the same game in two versions, young for history development and at current state. They are all real genetics born via CAS - first I gave Lilly a mom then a dad via genetics CAS option, overworked the version which was the most faved by me and afterwards I did her parents together and created her siblings, again with CAS genetics work.

The Rhune Elves are element Elves with special magic power (they are hybrids spellcaster and vampire genetics - but they have only the spellcaster skills, no alien or vampire second shape and no of their skills, only their outlook in cas has the multiple species choice - so you can say they are real Elves :).

The Wooden Circle 

It was early tuesday morning and Lilly had to work in the cafe. Tuesdays her dad Maxwell usually visits the market to trade with their wares and to buy whatever they need, so he always took Lilly with him in the jeep. Wednesdays she has to take the bus and thursdays she drives with Jeremia who usualy went to SanMyshuno for business. For a while now he is doing the banking and economic office part of Banks & Sons Fruit Trades. Father mentioned he hasn’t the mind for that anymore, but all knew it was to keep Jeremia in responsibility to bound him to the family trade company. The cafe is on their way and they always use the time to have bit conversation to care their relationships. Lilly did some friendly small talk with dad to keep in with him. She is daddys girl, so he never would pronounce his anger too strict to her directly, but she felt his worry. She knew it’s not to stress her, he really only wants to avoid that something could happen he has no influence on. Lilly loved her dad, he was strict but fair as well, so she excused for daydreaming on saturday and  promised to take more care. Sometimes, when they are not too late ;), dad went in the cafe with Lilly for a coffee to go, so he did today.

gallery link        pose Lilly by KSsdesign Next days Lilly was very busy and very careful, helped as much as she could.  She don’t want to risk to have to stay at home on saturday. She often thought of Delsin. She can’t get him out of her head. So friday evening came and Lilly thought about next day she finally would meet him again. She was so curious and it was a kind of so exciting having such a secret. She was sitting on her bed in their girls room the three sisters have to share and took out the wooden circle Delsin carved. She remembered a leatherband lying around anywhere, found it and put the pendant on. Dreaming of tomorrow she was disturbed by her one year younger sister Brenda who came in their room. Brenda was always too curious to get to know everything going on with everyone, she could’nt stand to miss anything and she had to talk about all that, always trying to be the middle of the world and to be the most important person around. No wonder she directly noticed the pendant and of course had to ask Lilly about it. She really, really could be so annoying. But Lilly for sure never would tell just Brenda about Delsin, so she only said that she had found it in one of her old stuff boxes and thought it would be nice to wear. Brenda looked at her very sceptical but she - oh wonder - accepted the answer for the moment. to be continued - project in progress If you stepped in here from anywhere -> back to the beginning of the story - click here story navigation  one back - one forward >>

The problem were the Maxis too adult female eyelashes (image 1 - original created). With cc no problem, I could blend them out with Kijikos eyelashes remover (image 2 - same as in 1 - but removed eyelashes), but for nocc I had to choose total different eyes and make them so close to the originals as possible (image 3- result, eyelids keep the different shape, in spite of using the most close to eyes without eyelashes available).

FIREWALKER

this was the second story I tried to tell with Sims made only for Sims4. (1st was Luke Vydash - coming later)

All gallery uploads were cc and with edited background images, but I had to realize the gallery isn’t a good place to tell stories. I was really new in gallery work at the beginning of 2020 and had no idea that cc uploads are not the stuff people really like to download and follow.

So i decided to bring the story to my tumblr now, this might be a better place. Work in progress is to transform the cc Sims to nocc versions, cause they were uploaded with state of play (SOP) - means the skills, traits, career they had at that point and were developing.

I really love my maincharacter, he is one of my most loved, but he is as he is only with cc. In spite of Sims4 has developed as well and there are much more CAS options now to come closer to better skin work, but we still have less facepaints and really good and characteristic tattoos.

TREASURE  HUNT

title image pose by juupo45 Things are going on in the little old O’Connor house at the margin of Oasis Springs and the people whisper behind the new residentials.

Ilay McGuaire - with 23 years

gallery link nocc #IlayMcGuaire pose by Spirirock Ilay new moved to Oasis Springs and nobody knows something about him. He is attractive and he knows it, all girls and some guys as well turn their heads to him and whisper behind 'Who is this hot guy? Do you know him? Does he live here now?'. He is a heartbreaker and he does it, but he never promises anything, so it’s the thing the ones have to deal with when they get involved with caught by his charisma, hope dies at least, doesn't it? He is a cool and smart guy, he behaves friendly to all people he met, but the people of Oasis Springs are leery to strangers and he has this mysterious mood around him, is there a secret he hides? And what about the old O’Connor house it was left empty after the 17 years old Seth disappeared, but it seems someone is living there again, the outside just got new shine, flowers are growing and sparkle in all colors, all that dry and old stuff has gone.

Seth O’Connor - with 21 years

And then some days later people in Oasis talk about another guy they just noticed to be new in town or isn't he? Two woman waiting at the supermarket checkout saw the ginger headed man walking in they heard from to be seen at the O’Connor house and people whisper this McGuaire guy moved in there as well.

'It's Seth, people say’, mentioned old Mrs. Brandenburg, ‘He should be back!'’ ‘Wow, he has changed a lot, but the ginger hair & theese poison mysterious eyes, maybe it’s him' said Mrs. Kreitz .'Nobody heard from him since he disappeared four years ago'. 'Yes it was so tragic what happened with his dad, do you think McGuaire is the uncle Seth always told he was waiting for to care about him. It’s obscure, I’m still not sure wether Seth has something to do with the miss of his father!’ next -> the old O’Connor house Sims and Story © by tikajona

The Beginning - RETRO

Jolene Winter

1st image above #JoleneWinter cc RETRO TheSims version -> gallery link to nocc version 2nd image - at least in Sims3 3rd image - young Jolene as started in Sims4 gallery link to nocc version of young Jolene as played #JoleneWinter(-fels) by #tikajona - everything startet with her sometime around 2002. She was my very first Sim ever in TheSims.

She was my main character I played that times all over (in gallery I wrote TheSims2 - that was a mistake, I never played TheSims2. Startet with 1 then 3 and now 4.

I recreated her first for The Sims 3 as I remember her in style and then did the same from TheSims3 for TheSims4. This wasn’t planed.

It was hard to say goodbye to all my Simmies from S3, but the game got increasing buggy, with endless loading times as more as my world growed.

I tried TheSims4 and missed the roads to bike with a motorcycle, the so much more color possibilties in cas, from hair- and eyecolor up to clothing, the eyelashes, hated the loading screens all between every move to anoher lot and I don’t wanted it. But at least I had no chance - so it was time to say good bye to TheSims3 and to my so loved Conroy Clan, the Rockband Gravity (another feature I miss, why does Sims4 only have classic music career, that’s so oldschool), my Werewolves. the Nolans and the MC’s I had there.

I wanted to do all new in Sims4 but it only lastet 2 weeks and I couldn’t resist to bring my Clan back - missed them too much, played them over years with no cheats. Conroy Clan was 4 generations, up to Marcin Winter-Conroy I just brought back to gallery now - you see below.

Marcin Winter-Conroy

#MarcinWConroy today in my game - he is Jolene and Saints grandgrandson      gallery link

Saint Conroy   -  The Clanleader

#SaintConroy did’nt exist in TheSims, he 1st was created for Sims3 and I never played a male Sim continues before. But up from Sims3 I continues played the Conroy Clan, a Rockstar & a Star-Stylistin was the status left behind in Sims3.

Very young #SaintConroy by #tikajona - as close as possible as I created him in Sims3, looking back I’m not more sorry about leaving Sims3 - Sims4 Sims are so much more handsome and pretty ♥♥♥

cc version on image above gallery link to nocc version - as he started in Sims4 is same

Saint at least in Sims3

Some impressions from Sims 3

Saint in Sims3

the 2nd marriage of Jolene and Saint - they divorced after 20 years, but got together again 3 years later

the Conroy Villa - not the last state it was, but one of the less images I have - they had a stable left from the red tree and a huge range to ride and train in front of later. Thia died by an traiing accident with her horse in Sims3 - were living all together here. Jaxx very much later build a treehouse and moved there with Maja.

THE  CONROY  CLAN  -   Story

Saint met Jolene in Roaring Hights, making money with streetmusic long before he was famous and a rockstar. At that time he was far from expecting to be a clanleader & MC-President of a motorcycleclub one day …. to be continued …

The Banks Family 

Lilly realized the sundown facing the elderly apple farm. She forgot the time daydreaming and thinking about her unexpecting exciting afternoon. Her 15 years old younger brother Tom (right side) ran towards her while shouting: ’Where have you been so long? Dad isn't amused to be to late for diner. He just send Jeremia (leftside) to look after you!’ Jeremia, Lillys older brother, was just ready to go as he saw his siblings standing at the bridge and talk. ‘I’m currently here Tom, everything is ok, I just forgot the time a bit. Let’s stop Jeremia, ok!’ She hugged her little brother, thankful for his care and attention. He might be some years younger, but Tom is her heart. They always stand together and he understood her interests and urge to freedom well. Tom is the one she talks with whatever she is moved by. Jeremia joined in and mentioned: ‘I don’t want to now what you where doing but please be more careful, especially next days, calm down dad a bit!’ Jeremia is 25 years and so 6 years older, she thought about Delsin, he must be some years older as well, might be he is so old as Jeremia, if he knew him? She wouldn’t ask him, knowing he will be concerned. He is the most mind controlled of the five siblings. He works with dad on the farm and he does a good job, but he often appears thoughtful, absent. Lillys opinion about her brother is he does what he has to do, but he isn’t happy with that. But for sure, he is right, she has to be more careful next days to avoid to have to stay at home at the weekend. She's nineteen but fathers word is law.

gallery link         poses by juupo45  Sunday morning Lilly usually was helping her mother Julia in the kitchen. It was just after the family breakfeast and Lilly thought about what the future might bring to her. Lilly passed the exams at highschool with best results last spring. She really was desperated sometimes because she really have had the hope to be allowed to visit the college, but father denied. They are dependant on her help with the farm he said and yes she knew that, but nevertheless she was so disappointed. So she does a part time job now, three times a week she is working in the city cafe. Her view went out of the kitchen window and she saw father and Jeremia on the apple fields. Her sister Brenda comes in, talking non stop, thats Brendam she always has to be the point of interest and Liz was sitting at the kitchen table doing her homework for school, she is a really nerd. And her mind flow down to the riverside ‘How a native family would do their daywork?’ she thought. to be continued - project in progress If you stepped in here from anywhere -> back to the beginning of the story - click here story navigation  one back - one forward >>
