“I was feeling epic.”

Welcome to a new legacy based off the television series The Vampire Diaries, featuring both an occult free version for players that prefer realism and an optional occult related track for every generation.

You do not need to have seen the show to play the challenge, however if you want to watch it eventually, there will be spoilers for both The Vampire Diaries and The Originals.

When posting playthroughs, please use the tag #tvduchallenge or #ts4tvduc so others can see your gameplay! This challenge was written by mythsanddragons focusing on the major characters in the series.

GENERAL RULES

It is recommended that while each generation follows each characters’ story, that you don’t try to replicate their story exactly as shown in the show. Even though the goals track their storyline progression through the series, I encourage you to play around, change aspects, and have fun!

The aspirations and skills listed should be completed. You may need to complete other skills for the sims aspiration or career. The skills chosen are more based on personality and hobbies the characters are shown having in the series. When it comes to the aspirations, if there is an ‘and/or’ you may do one or all of the listed aspirations. It’s up to you what you choose for your childhood aspirations. If no teen aspiration is mentioned, you may do what you wish for that character.

The goals are more story oriented than goal oriented, though some correlate directly to accomplishing goals. If you wish to skip certain goals or move them to another category, you’re welcome to. Part one is for teen goals and part two is for YA and above.

Play on whatever lifespan you’d like. I’d recommend a long lifespan or a custom one to be able to accomplish all the storytelling goals without rushing and give you some breathing room, but you’re welcome to try and do everything in a shorter lifespan. You can also change the lifespan for certain generations if they feel like you’re getting through faster than others.

It is suggested that you use mods, especially to accomplish certain goals listed. If you can’t or don’t use mods, you can either do storytelling for that goal or ignore it completely.

You can alter generations to fit your game as this challenge was made with all packs in mind.

Some cheating is allowed, if you like, to reach certain storyline goals or to move things in the needed direction. There are specific areas in certain generations where you might wish to do so to progress the story forward.

In instances where you need to move a lot, you may occasionally cheat for a home if you can’t afford one.

University is listed for most generations, as several of the characters went to college in the series. You’re welcome to pause time during it, shorten it with mods, or not do it at all, if it doesn’t interest you.

You may choose an heir in any way you like. Heirs do not need to be the same in any aspect as the generation’s namesake.

Spin the event wheel whenever you’re told, but if you’re looking for more to do during any generation you may use it to spice things up.

Since the majority of TVD is about grief and learning how to live in the face of it, make sure you celebrate both life and death. For every sim that is important, be sure to have a funeral.

FAQ

Why are there so many traits listed?

Mostly, it's for variety. You can choose the traits you feel best represent the character listed and/or the sim you’re playing. Also, for people who play with the more traits mod, it gives them the opportunity to define their sim more. Some traits can be swapped out at different times during a character’s lifetime to better reflect what they are experiencing. It’s really up to you. If you don’t know what to pick, feel free to roll for it.

Where do the Occult Optional Goals fit in?

Basically, you’d insert the goals into the list of the non-occult goals. You may place them wherever you like, though in some generations I give clues as to where they might fit in the best. You never have to follow those guides if you have an idea you like better for the placement of the occult goals.

Which generation should I play first?

If you have a favorite, you’re welcome to jump to it. However, I did write Stefan’s generation to be last and I tried to place them in an order where the characters that have interlocking plot lines are further apart in most cases to make it less redundant.

Can I skip a generation if I don’t like it/the character?

If you want! Though, if you’re doing it just because you don’t like a character, you might enjoy playing their story more than watching it because you’ll have a chance to make the character more interesting.

Why is character XYZ not a generation?

I tried to stick to the main characters that were in the series. The only main character I skipped, I believe, is Enzo because most of his life was in captivity or he was a ghost. If enough people want a certain character generation done though, I’m happy to try and create one.

Wait, some of these generations require me to play sims running away or other storylines where they are not in the same household as the previous generation. What if I’m not done with the previous generation’s goals when the next generation is a teen?

There’s a few ways you can handle this. You can stop aging until you’re ready to deal with it or you can rotationally play with your two heirs’ households. I’m sure there’s other ways to handle it as well, if you want to. Get creative!

Do I have to stick with the color palette?

Only if you want to. They are based primarily on the colors the characters are seen wearing a lot or a color that is associated with the feel of their generation. They aren’t a requirement, but there for fun, as I personally like color associations.

Will this get updated?

If new packs come out that work with the legacy, or if I notice there are goals that aren’t working how I want them too when I play it through, it might!

GENERATION ONE: Elena Gilbert

“When you lose someone, it stays with you, always reminding you of how easy it is to get hurt.”

►Trauma defines you. Without it, you’re not sure who you are. It makes you want to live and it makes you want to die. You’re not sure how to keep going. Somehow, you figure it out and decide that life is worth living to the fullest. You find that you love to help people and find purpose in assisting others, allowing them to find their second chance as well. With that understanding, that becomes your life: weird, messy, complicated, sad, wonderful, amazing, and above all epic.

GENERATION TWO: Caroline Forbes

“When anybody tells me I can’t do something, I prove them wrong.”

►You always feel like you’re playing second fiddle. You’re neurotic, somewhat of a control freak, and know that if you want something done, you have to do it yourself. While you put on a facade of everything being perfect, inside things aren’t so bright and cheery. You often feel as shallow as a kiddie pool, but you’re working on it, and that has to count for something, right? Your life is nothing like what you expected it to be, but you find love and acceptance in unexpected places. You might not always be the first pick, but you’ll always make every moment count.

GENERATION THREE: Jeremy Gilbert

“I wake up everyday and I feel okay. But there's something missing, like a hole. Some people, they fit in life or whatever. I don't.”

►You’ve always felt like you don’t quite belong, like you’re alone in this world. You carry an empty feeling inside of you that makes you feel lost. You hold loss close to your chest and are often overcome with a lack of purpose. You try to act like everything is okay so no one worries about you and try to numb the feelings any way you can. You often know you’re making the wrong choice, but you make it anyway. As you get older, you find new ways to cope and contribute to the world around you. You find a strength you didn’t know you had. Will it be enough at last?

GENERATION FOUR: Damon Salvatore

“Because when people see good, they expect good, and I don’t want to have to live up to anyone’s expectations.”

►You have never been enough. Not for your parents, not for your siblings, not for your lovers. Your life is filled with disappointments — being one yourself and being disappointed by others. You tried to be good, to find love, to be level headed, but everyone turned their backs on you. Instead of living up to expectations, you push everyone away, secretly hoping that one day someone might break through your walls and appreciate you for who you are. Until then, if you’re going to be bad, be bad with a purpose, or else you're not worth forgiving.

“I have come to believe that we are bound forever to those with whom we share blood. And while we may not choose our family... their blood can be our greatest strength, or our deepest regret.”

►You live by a moral code all your own. Sometimes it’s not always what is right, but what is necessary. You refuse to give up on your family, even when it seems like they can’t be saved. After all, the very definition of broken means that there is something that can be fixed, and you will do anything to make it better. You dedicate your life to everyone but yourself, trying to make up for what you believe are past failings. Will you ever learn to value yourself?

GENERATION SIX: Matt Donovan

“You can’t possibly hate me more than I hate myself.”

►Corruption is everywhere you turn. You had a rough upbringing and never quite felt connected to your family. You tried to put them first, to keep them afloat, but everything fell apart before you. Even your friends fall victim to losing themselves. You explore the world and take risks before coming back home. You dedicate yourself to trying to better the world around you, to make a difference where you can. After all, as someone once told you: the first rule of truly living is to do what you fear most.

GENERATION SEVEN: Rebekah Mikaelson

"The first rule of truly living is to do the things you're most afraid of."

►Everything you love turns to ash. You fear being abandoned but it seems like nothing you do can change that. You’re always finding love in the wrong places at the wrong time, desperate to live the fairytale life of true love, growing old together, and having kids. You love through thick and thin, and are more devoted than anyone, yet still it feels like you’re always getting the short end of the stick. You become bitter and resentful, but you keep trying again and again. There is a demon in everyone, and some days it wins, but maybe one day you can control it and finally live the life you dream of.

GENERATION EIGHT: Alaric Saltzman

“I find a way to keep going, because that’s what we do. We find a way to keep going.”

However, you learned to keep going and move forward, building your family by picking up loved ones along the way. You try to be everything you can be to the people in your life, but you often feel a dead weight. You struggle to connect with people your entire life, but you hope you’ve always done the best you could for those you love.

GENERATION NINE: Klaus Mikaelson

"What some would call evil, I believe to be an appropriate response to a harsh and unfair world."

►You are pessimistic and paranoid, seeing enemies in everyone around you. As much as you might love, and deeply, your fear of being betrayed controls your life. You want more than anything to surround yourself with those that will see you for who you are and love you regardless, but you are too blinded by your emotions to see clearly those that have stood beside you all along. There is beauty in those that persevere, in those that believe there is good in the world, but so often you allow yourself to drown in the darkness. Will you ever be able to pull yourself out?

“Life is too cruel. If we cease to believe in love, why would we want to live?"

►Love is what makes life worth it. All you want is to be seen and loved for who you are. Sure, you’re not perfect. You’d do anything to survive, even if it means manipulating those around you. If your needs aren’t being met, why shouldn’t you do everything in your power to get your way? You’re all about sharing until one day someone makes you feel worthy of love. Will you ruin your life to find a way to be with them? Or will you finally realize that familial love is a bond no one can take from you?

“For the first time, I’m putting me first.”

You give everything you have and everything you are for your friends and family, but in the end you always pay the price. You have strong morals and you try to stick by them no matter what, but if your friends are in danger, you’re not going to stand by and do nothing.

“We choose our own path. Our values and our actions — they define who we are.”

►You want to believe that people are inherently good, that they are worth fighting for, even when they prove you wrong. There is a hunger inside of you that is inexplicable. It yearns to run free because you don’t know how to deal with the ways in which life has let you down. You drown, over and over again, unable to deal with your problems and face your emotions. Eventually, you find a way, clawing yourself free while reaching for the life you always wanted. Will your life be worthy of being your story or will it all go up in hellfire?
