howdy!! we have written a gameplay legacy challenge that currently consists of 23 generations as of july 2021. we have always enjoyed gameplay and the idea of creating this challenge came from the many prompts we gave ourselves. several generations we have played ourselves and several others are brand new that we have yet to try! as new stuff, game and expansion packs get released, we will update with more prompts to the google doc! if you have any questions, do feel free to reach out. we’ll be happy to help!
Всем привет! Я соскучалась по тамблеру, по симсу и решила собраться и написать историю! Это будет, я надеюсь, короткая история о Лиле, которую травмировала ее подросковая любовь. Из-за чего у нее возникуют различные проблемы в отношениях, в жизни. Должно быть интересно!
Решила в этот раз побробовать сделать на русскую аудиторию. Сразу с руссским текстом, вместо английского. Мечта - это выпускать посты раз в неделю. Но посмотрим как получиться.
Прошу реблогнуть всех кто может, чтобы люди узнали, что я жива!! :))
I created this challenge as I never play with Vampires anymore and I thought it would be great idea to combine general gameplay with Vampire generations.
This challenge is based on the same style of the Not So Berry challenge, which I love and I enjoy the general layout so I wanted to create a similar style challenge but with Occults. You don’t have to stick to any colours for this Challenge, I just wanted to keep the format the same. If you haven’t already, you can check out the NSB Challenge here.
You can follow my gameplay over on my blog @simbonez

RULES:
There are some notes on some Gen rules, I have tried to explain as much as I can, but ultimately how you play this challenge, story wise is up to you.
Gender is not specific to any Generation, apart from Gen 2, where you must birth a son, a ‘male heir’ this will be the first born male. This ‘heir’ however is a false heir and will not be the heir to the next generation, Gen 3.
If a sim specifies that they have a coven, you must make a coven using the GTW group feature. You may put whoever in this coven, the only rule is that they vampires.
If another occult is mentioned in a Gen, e.g A Witch, give them the Vampire occult.
Money cheats can be used, but only to purchase a Gen’s first home, this must be realistic however, especially if they have money tasks in their rules.
If their is no career specified for a gen, you can choose if they have a career or not, such as the vampire aspiration gens.
Explanations:
Bloodline - a direct descendant of your selected sim.
Pureblood - a ‘true’ vampire, a sim that has not been turned, but is a descendant from vampire parents.
Coven - A group of vampires using GTW Clubs. If a sim specifies that they have a coven, you must make a coven using the GTW Club feature. You may put whoever in this coven, the only rule is that they are vampires.
Let me know if you have any questions! I haven’t yet play-tested, so let me know if you find any conflicts within the story line!
I hope you enjoy!

Create a sim in all of their life stages. Or use a sim you’ve created before and create their other life stages. Or use a sim born in game or a premade. In addition to the six life stages you can create in CAS, you can add your own (like a tween for example, also maybe they don’t even live to the elderhood?). You can write their life story if you wish or let us guess. My inspiration for this challenge.
Have fun and tag some people to try this out if you like!
Tag me @someone-elsa and use #life stages cas challenge so I can reblog your posts :)
This unholy mary sue is my oldest OC, the one I’ve written the most extensively about and who I forever regret abandoning when the friends group I created her for ultimately dissipated. She was made for an anything-goes crossover roleplay centering around Sailor Moon, Dragonball Z and basically any other random anime the group happened to be into at the time. I created her as a child of Tenou Haruka (Sailor Uranus) and Mirai Trunks, because I was exactly fifteen and didn’t quiteunderstand how lesbians worked yet.
Kazeno Aoi is a genius when it comes to technology and martial arts, but is woefully inept at most normal tasks – she never learned to cook and is unable to drive due to being too short to reach the pedals. In full adulthood she’s never taller than 4′9″. She was raised exclusively by her father until she was a pre-teen, when he married her stepmother Chikara and brought twin little brothers into the world. Then, the Androids attacked, and she escaped in her father’s time machine to a safer timeline. She met a group of friends who, like her, had a parent who was a Sailor Senshi, and they formed the Millennium Guardians, to protect time and space where others could not since they could travel between dimensions. We never really got around to writing this fic, because we got more invested in a separate version in which the girls met and married basically the entire gang from Gundam Wing and produced a bunch of kids, because we were goofy teenagers. Aoi married Duo Maxwell. It was all much hilarity.
As a tween and teen Aoi’s style is inspired by skater and punk/ska culture, reflecting her rebellious nature spawned from the trauma of losing her home reality. As she ages into adulthood she gains a love of nature and a sort of bohemian style, becoming a crystal-loving, knitting dorky grandma in her elder years. Also I forgot to scale the child and toddler sizes properly to display her height, whoops.

Just some typical island life: cleaning up ocean garbage, visiting volcanos in your bikini and extinguishing sulphur piles, confronting litterbugs and getting an earful, showering in waterfalls, grilling, and suntanning nekkid on your own private beach.
