Chapter 1: An unearthly child
Nick: So, what do you say to getting married and having a child to start a 16-generation long dynasty?
Cassidy: I won't need to sculpt, right? I have a feeling it'd be bad for my health . . .
Nick: Nonsense! We just need to be really, really happy.
Cassidy: I'd be happy to do it, then.
Nick: And happy to marry me?
Cassidy: Definitely! I'm not taking your surname though.
Nick: How about a new surname then? One that's uniquely ours.
Cassidy: Maybe a mix of both our surnames would do?
Nick: Like Earthhawk?
Cassidy: That sounds silly. How about Riversong?
Nick: Sounds good.
Betabee: And now I pronounce you the founders of the Riversong Dynasty!
Generation 1 is on the way! I'm not having the whole guessing game like in the Scientias. All the heirs this time will be based off Dr Who companions or the actors playing the Doctor. I aim to cover 3 Doctors per world.
The nursery is quite simple for now, partly because the cild won't spend long there, and partly because I'm trying to save money for the world moving requirements.
Hence most of the house has been emptied of furniture.
I may use some of the rooms again later on, so I haven't demolished any buildings.
All the furniture selling has allowed the family to buy and fully upgrade their first property on day 1. Score!
So here you see a renovated Louie falls, which hopefully will bring in revenue to help buy the next properties and buildings.
It's on it's way!
Jess: Why am I still here?
Betabee: Same reason as normal.
Jess:Don't tell me I'm a skill slave
again!
Betabee: Yep. Sorry. You should have a longer lifespan, though. I don't think there's any restrictions on feeding you young again potions in this ruleset.
Jess: Joy.
Betabee: Enjoying yourself?
Cassidy: Reasonably. It's a good thing Social Networking is a free skill, otherwise it'd be a lot harder for me to get my lifetime wish. How's Nick?
Betabee: He's writing a few books inbetween going to work to boost the family income.
Soon enough, it's time for the first generation to arrive!
Cassidy: Yay! She's green!
Betabee: Forum, this is Susan- an artistic and good baby.
Susan was aged up immediately following her birth.
Nick: Woot! I don't have to deal with a burrito at all!
Susan: I thought I'd have grown some hair by now.
Betabee: It's only a few minutes since you were born- have some patience.
She's got Nick's eyes and hair, and her mother's skin (though in a slightly darker shade). It's hard to tell which parent she resembles most face-wise at this stage.
Betabee: Why did you have white as your favourite colour?
Susan: It's pretty and clean.
Betabee: It's a silly colour to dress a toddler in, but I've done my best.
Thus begins the heir's skilling so she can get the correct traits. I'm hoping she can get ambitious and workaholic so she can do painting and law enforcement when she's older.
