I hadn't considered that. :)

I -had- considered it being Kahlee though.

Also good. But the sim you showed was male so I've sorta been thinking of a him and not a her. Making it Kahlee's story could allow your readers to see her as something other than a murderer of innocents. I'm assuming it would take place after her memory has been wiped by the good Doctor?

That's the plan, yep. :)

Sort of: Wipe memory. Dump on an island somewhere and leave her to it.

What will happen I'm not 100% sure on. Part of me wants to plan it, and part of me wants to let it just play out and see what happens.

But I'm thinking 2-3 major parts, the first mostly being getting back on her feet (say Swimming in Cash LTW so she can buy a house), second would be getting her memory back and third would depend ENTIRELY on how things have panned out so far. :) She might go back to hunting down Anna and Kerry, or leave them alone and hope Grim doesn't come after her.

Now I REALLY can't wait ;) have I mentioned on any of your threads yet how much I enjoy your writing? If not, I really really do! The twist you threw into Anna's story with the 2 K's was awesome.

I like the idea of using Kahlee. That would be very interesting!

Thanks! I'm still... very unsure about my writing. I used to do it a lot, but I'm -really- rusty now.

Heh... the 2 K's... that just reminds me of the Y2K bug for some reason...

Hi, I just found this thread.  It's very intriguing.  I love the idea of a shipwrecked homesless sim who hates the outdoors.  I would probably use either Barnacle Bay or Isla Paradiso.  I have to ask though, as a shipwrecked sim, might he have limitations.  For instance, can he go to the book and grocery stores?  He could fish, but that would be all.  I envision a Gilligan's Island.  I would use the island survival pack to live with.  I would not want my sim to be able to leave the island, but he does have to eat and I don't want him to be uneducated.  What do you think?

I used Isla Paradiso.

There's lots of "small" islands you can use. The problem is you HAVE to leave the island to get seeds, and you can't fish straight out of the ocean. So you have to go to the "main" island in order to use the fishing hole appropriate for having 0 fishing skill. :)

I decided to use IP because of all the islands.  Barn Bay didn't have any.  I gave him a pet cat because I want him cut off from people and I couldn't think of any other way to get social needs.  If there is a way, please let me know.  I moved my sim into 'It's a Boat' and he went to the grocery store and bought 2 produce plants and the bookshop for gardening 1.  He then bought an additional property, an island.  He took his boat, the SS Minnow, on his 3 hour tour to the island and I've left it in the water.  I made the island his primary home.  I can now ignore the boat and he's now stranded.  I'm able to fish in the ocean with no problem.  He's planted two garden plants.  He's caught several fish and has gained a skill point.  He won't be able to get all the different kinds, but that's fine.  I did have to make a small bare bones room for a washroom and a place to get out of the weather.  I thought I could purchase a tent, but I can't find one so he's using a sleeping bag.  So I'm off and running.
  Would you have allowed a book on gardening and the purchase of two produce items?  Thanks for this idea.  It's a good one.

Oh, OK  Thanks.  I tried having a parrot because sims can talk and play with them, but it didn't work.
