I sense some Beauty and the Beast action! As for Thana, oh she cracks me up!  ;D

Absolutely inspired by Beauty and the Beast. I actually thought about building Percival a Beast's castle look-alike, but just wasn't in the mood to build it.

Love how Thana is playing matchmaker  :=)  I don't have Midnight Hollows.  Is that pig-tailed girl a townie?

She is indeed a townie. Midnight Hollow is gorgeous and full of interesting looking sims. And Thana, do something nice? Could it be?

OH MY GAWD!!!!!!!!!!

That is so freaking awesome! I can't wait to see how that ends up!

Thanks! Poor Percival, I really have tormented him long enough, don't you think?

Eeee!  Love it when Thana makes an appearance!  Her and Percy's interactions are just so much fun!

You can thank Azokka, then, for wanting to have Percival as her butler! It's been fun to write about their adventure together.

Aw, matchmaking.  I do love an unexpected cameo.  Percy's going to have to get over his victim complex if he wants to be seductive, though.

I know right! Percival practically reeks of desperation. I wonder if Thana has a cure for that, too?

I hope that grey girl can get past Percy's lycanthropy. He might sound whiny, but I just feel sorry for him. :(

And I'm not saying that solely because I want grey Dojo children in the future. Why would I ever say such a thing?

P.S. I love the way you build and everything about it.

Thanks! I love building, and I spent a lot of time on Everette's house in particular. You'll probably be seeing a lot more of that mansion. And yes, of grey Dojo nooboos. Am I hinting at things in the future? Abso-freakin'-lutely.  ;)

Thana's expression in the second to last picture is priceless, like "A hairy werewolf hunk shouting at me and blaming me for something good! Just a super-boringly normal day, so I'm going to eat plenty of candies to get sugar rush and make thing at least look interesting"

Thana makes so many hilarious expressions! She's always doing bizarre things to make me laugh.

Percy must marry Lady Grayfeathers!

I'm not familiar with the name Lady Grayfeathers, although it does seem rather apt for her. Is this a character from a book or something?

Future Tidings

Samura sorted out her outfits and looked approvingly at herself in the mirror. That'll do, she concluded.



Then it was time to say goodbye.

Gwenyth: "I'm so jealous! I wish I could come with you!"

Samura: "Oh, grams. You know there's no food replicator stocked full of ambrosia where I'm going."

Gwenyth: "I know, I know."



Rhaven just sniffled back tears. "My baby girl! You'll be an old lady next I see you."

Samura: "Oh, mom! Stop exaggerating. You know I have to come back in time for my adult portrait."



And then, before anyone else had the time to get all needlessly sentimental on her, she was off.



After all, the years would pass slowly for her, but for the rest of them it would be as if she had only been gone for a few minutes.



Samura looked around Oasis Landing with awe, and she took one quick ride on her jetpack to get a good view before stashing it safely away for later, non-dynasty days.



Then it was time to say hello to the family.



She was pleased to find they'd kept up with the daredevil tradition.



And they willingly shared their sprite forms with her, to aid her in supermaxing Advanced Technology.



Apparently, she was pretty famous in the future, as well as the present.

"Good luck!" a woman who claimed to be her great-great-something-or-another said. "Not that you need it, of course. We already know all about the dynasty--and the legacy too."



Samura didn't really understand what they were going on about, but before she could inquire further she suddenly found herself quite distracted by a handsome stranger.



And, in an instant, she forgot about everything else.

The legacy?? Does that mean there will be more Dojo goodness when this ends?

Backing up... I have been reading both of your dynasties recently, and I love them.

Nice, clever move to show all of the elders before she heads off to the future and they go into "pause" mode.
I'll be interested to see if and how the future Dojos play into the storyline almost as much as simply watching Samura's storyline play out.

Samura's gorgeous! I think it's funny how she's named for someone who's roughly a thousand or so years older than her, and she's supermaxing advanced technology. Heh heh.....irony.

Actually, I did the approximate math once, and I don't think Samura the First would be much older than 500. Yeah, it takes roughly about 95 days/years to reach ambrosia, but if you get a new generation every 25 or so years (I think the wait only got stupidly long once because Shawnya wouldn't die), it should only take about 200-300-ish years per Immortal Dynasty. This is just a rough estimation, though.

Auden Dunes isn't bad choice! He has gorgeous blue eyes and his traits aren't half bad, although he dislikes children.

Huh. For some reason, whenever I do 'generations math,' as my grandpa calls it, I usually go way overbroad....whoops.

Still ironic, though.

I need to get Into The Future, but my game disk has been so fussy lately. My game keeps freezing on me. Anyway, do the descendants have any names? If so, could you name a few? They all have Samura II skin color! Now that is cool!  :D  And I heard legacy,  ???  Rhoxi, are you planning something?

Backing up... I have been reading both of your dynasties recently, and I love them.

Aw, thank you! And yes! I couldn't very well just leave the Dojos behind after getting so attached to them. The legacy will be both something new and incorporate the Dojos. That probably doesn't make much sense, but then, well, it will.

Nice, clever move to show all of the elders before she heads off to the future and they go into "pause" mode.
I'll be interested to see if and how the future Dojos play into the storyline almost as much as simply watching Samura's storyline play out.

It was nice to show the elders before Samura left, and it also provided good justification for her decision to leave. Unfortunately, that really is all there is with the future Dojos.

Samura's gorgeous! I think it's funny how she's named for someone who's roughly a thousand or so years older than her, and she's supermaxing advanced technology. Heh heh.....irony.

It's certainly an odd contrast: traditional Samura and futuristic Samura. I kinda like it, though. After all, all of the newer Dojos are so much more modern, so it makes sense she would be too.

Actually, I did the approximate math once, and I don't think Samura the First would be much older than 500. Yeah, it takes roughly about 95 days/years to reach ambrosia, but if you get a new generation every 25 or so years (I think the wait only got stupidly long once because Shawnya wouldn't die), it should only take about 200-300-ish years per Immortal Dynasty. This is just a rough estimation, though.

Oh gosh, that would take some consideration. I recall estimating Everette to be around 200, because I had to give a general age for him to be on The Bachelorette.

The future and the Dojos descendents looks cool. Good luck to Samura in future.:)

The future descendants unfortunately only have Samura's genes. Maybe the others being elders don't get future descendants? Not really sure. There was basically one green male who looked just like her but thinner, one green female with her features but thicker, and some generic clone faced Caucasian sims.   

Auden Dunes isn't bad choice! He has gorgeous blue eyes and his traits aren't half bad, although he dislikes children.

So do I, so I can't really count that against him  :P He had a great nose, too!

I need to get Into The Future, but my game disk has been so fussy lately. My game keeps freezing on me. Anyway, do the descendants have any names? If so, could you name a few? They all have Samura II skin color! Now that is cool!  :D  And I heard legacy,  ???  Rhoxi, are you planning something?

I actually don't recall their names and didn't remember to write them down, but they were pretty much either Samura-clones or the dreaded clone-face-clones. And planning something? Who me?  ;D

They kept the Daredevil trait! That's awesome! I love how the rainbow slider skin also lived on in the Dojo descendants. Good luck to Samura 2.0 as she wraps up this journey!

Yes! I was thrilled that descendants apparently share traits! Or maybe it was just a coincidence? I'm not sure, but either way, I loved that they were both daredevils.

Oh my goodness! They kept the rainbow skin! And a Rhoxi Legacy?! That just sounds amazing.

Thank you! I'm really looking forward to writing a legacy. The dynasties have been a ton of fun, but I'm ready for a new project.

Ooooo!  Future Dojos!  I haven't gotten ITF yet, so this just makes me wanna get it XD

The future stuff is pretty cool and very well designed. I was a little disappointing by buying a home in the future, though; it was buggy, well, as you'll see below!

Ephemeral

It didn't take long for Samura to decide that she liked Auden Dunes.



She would've preferred to make her first move without that box in the way, but sometimes when the time is right you just have to go for it anyway.



They ended the night star gazing after deciding to go steady.



Samura certainly wished things would've gone even further than that, but it was getting late and she was tired. Her first woohoo would have to wait. She spent the night at the community center and purchased the largest, most expensive house first thing in the morning because hey, why not?



Her new house was spacious, but it had an unfortunate problem in that it couldn't seem to actually shut out visitors. The paparazzi, free to waltz right in, had no qualms getting up close and personal while she tried to get some sleep.



This caused Samura a great deal of anxiety.



Despite the alarming lack of security in the future, life was otherwise simple. Samura took up a job with the local astronomy lab and worked to improve her logic so that she could be an astrophysicist.



The locals were eager to exchange sprite forms, and she readily obtained the last one needed to supermax advanced technology.



And, of course, she went on lots of dates with Auden, which usually winded up moving into the bedroom.



Or the nearest hot tub.



Winter turned into spring, which turned into summer, fall, and back again to winter.



And Samura was very happy.
