Hello, and welcome to my first legacy challenge ever! I’ve been playing Sims 3 for a while, and recently bought a bunch of expansion packs during the Summer Steam Sale. So, to try them out, I’ve decided to finally give a legacy my best try. But let’s be honest, no one cares about me, the Sim-God of this world, the person you really want to meet is our founder. So without further ado, here she is: Sophia ManEater.

Sophia had a sad childhood. She was abandoned at a young age by her father, and has grown up in and out of orphanages and foster homes. She’s grown very distrustful of men over the years, but also finds herself desperately seeking that solid, loving, family structure that she never had. She’s family-oriented, nurturing, flirty, and a good kisser. But she’s also got some major commitment issues. Her life goal is to raise 5 children from infancy through their teenage years, and she’s determined to do it all without any post-woohoo help from men.

After aging out of the system as a young adult, Sophia decided to relocate herself to Isla Paradiso. Here she managed to buy the largest plot of land available to her, and construct a small home with funds she’s managed to accumulate over the years from inheritance and odd jobs.

The house isn’t much, it barely looks like more than a trailer, just 3 small rooms, and an alchemy station out back.

Here is an overhead view for reference of the layout.

The kitchen is nothing fancy, she has no way of cooking, but she has a small table, a fridge for food, and a few seats to sit at while she eats her new diet of quick snacks.

On the other hand, Sophia went all out on a luxurious 2-person bed for her bedroom, as well as a small dresser for some changes of clothes. After all, she needs a place to start her family, and the right clothes to trap a man to do it. In the back, there’s also a small, modest, bathroom where she can take care of her remaining need-bars. Nothing fancy, but she decided to get in the spirit of her new island home with a single decorated wall.

Next time: We’ll finally get to hear from our founder herself, and see as she starts a career, and more importantly, starts looking for a suitable future baby-daddy.

So… This is, as I said, my first legacy. And I was really inspired to start it after getting the Supernatural expansion pack during the Steam sale. I want to experience all the different occult types, and as a result each generation is going to be paired with a different occult type baby-daddy, and only children of that type will be eligible heiresses (yes, if you couldn’t tell from the name, this is going to be a matriarchy, also the idea of future vampire and werewolf ManEaters amuses me...). As a result, each generation should be a different type, with only Sophia here being human.

Also, I’m going to follow legacy rules as best I can. No cheats. Due to expansion packs Sophia had a bit more money than standard after buying the big-lot, but other than that she’ll be left to fend on her own.

I am, however, using one mod. Master Controller. BUT – I’m only using this mod to find Sophia a suitable baby-daddy. As Isla Paradiso is not Moonlight Falls, it took awhile for a man of her (occult) type to spawn, and I wanted to be sure she could track him down as soon as he did. Starting with gen 2 though there should be no need for any modding.

Any suggestions or questions feel free to comment and ask. 🙂
