Intro - All about Change!

Yes, it's official. I gave up on that last attempt. Neither the architect career or Sunlit Tides was really doing it for me.
Echo: Or me!
So I've decided to try again!
Echo: Yipee!
And I've re-rolled Echo's traits.
Echo: *fearful expression*
Don't worry, Echo! You got a good roll!
Echo: What traits do I have now then?
Shy, Family-oriented, Vehicle Enthusiast, Never Nude and Nurturing
Echo: That's great!
And guess what you're doing for a career?
Echo: What?
Firefighting!
Echo: Awesome!
Thought you'd like that!

So Echo moves back to Sunset Valley. She buys a medium-sized plot of land beside the Keaton house. But she won't be living there for now. Until she gets some serious money, her home will be the Fire station.

One Day 1 Echo gets started on her Athletic skill.



And her Handiness skill.



She decides to try her new skill out on the oven.



Echo: *bash, bash, bash!*
How is that going to upgrade the oven, Echo?
Echo: I dunno. I'm just going to keep whacking it until it does something.
Like break.

She then has a go at the Fire Alarm.



I don't know what you intend to do with that massive sewdriver, Echo.
Echo: Don't worry, it's all under control.
I don't think it is...

But Echo takes a break after a while. She heads to the park, hoping to meet some good-looking vampire men.



Echo: Oh, hi Chris. Aw, you're not a vampire.
Chris: Good thing too. I don't want to be dragged into another Dynasty of hers *glares at sky*
Well you can't be unless you turn into a vampire.
Chris: Note to self: avoid vampires at all costs!

In many of my previous games, Geoffrey Langraab turns vamp. And Echo spots him on the other side of the park.



Echo: Hey Geoffrey, my Watcher really needs a fairly good-looking vampire man to father my children. So if you turn vamp, give me a call.
Geoffrey: Ok... (Vampires?! What?!)

They have a long conversation, mainly about children.
Geoffrey: I've got this son, Malcom, he's dead cute. Well, he was. He used to have the cutest red shoes but he's grown out of them now.



Echo: Oh wow, I used to have red shoes!



Geoffrey: And where do I start on the teddy bears?



Echo: Teddy bears?! I love Teddy Bears!
Geoffrey: Same!

So, ladies and gentlemen, prepare for a story of love and happiness, sorrow and grief, life and Death.

Welcome to the world of the Believers!

Isn't there an expression like "Three is a charm?"
I'm sure this will work for you too! :)
Problem? Don't panic! There is always a solution. You just have to find it  :D

Love all three beginnings, but the third is definitely my favourite. I adore Echo and can't wait to read more about her. Fingers crossed you can find a good looking vampire soon :)

Snuffles, I think you have been polishing your technique. Each beginning gets better and better! And you are always better for the experience, right?

I think my laptop has broken and I'm waiting to see if it's fixable. There are three senarios here:
  • My laptop is fixed and everything's ok
  • My laptop is broken but the files are revivable
  • My laptop is broken and all my files are deleted

Hopefully it's not the last one because that would mean an end to all of my stories (my Immortal Dynasty, my Life States Dynasty and my Decadynasty). But I've still got my fingers crossed  :)

Wouldn't your sims still be saved as part of the sims game, or would your files all being deleted mean they're gone too?
I hope you can get it fixed or a new laptop to transfer all your files to.  :)

Sometimes they have to wipe the hard drive of a computer to fix it, deleting all the saves to any games (and uninstalling those games, too).

I really enjoy your dynasties and I'd hate to see them gone. Best wishes to you and your laptop.

She needs a back up thingy so that if her laptop can turn on, she can back up all her sim stuff.  ;D ;D

I had to unistall my game and then when I re-installed all my files were still there. Your files may still have a chance.

Oh no Snuffles! I hope your laptop gets fixed! That is distressing!

Panic over! Computer shop says that it's just the screen, not the software. I should be up and running in a few days!
