First Immortal! Congratulations!   

And thank goodness Marko put some clothes on for his wedding! lol
"Oh dear god Marko, trolling the forums while nude is a new low even for you." <<< very funny line!

Glad you started again!  I can't run the mischief aspirations...  I start feeling bad and have to stop halfway through.  I'm not sure if I'll try them on my dynasty, I guess we'll see what traits roll up.

[Margerita]

Thank you all!

Unfortunately updates will be coming more slowly now since I've pretty much caught up to where I am currently playing.
There really isn't much happening at the moment in the dynasty, it is in one of the calmer sections of the usual phases.

"Oh dear god Marko, trolling the forums while nude is a new low even for you." <<< very funny line!

That line was my very honest actual first reaction when I noticed that the game had "forgotten" to register that yes he was actually wearing his usual clothes.
Luckily saving and restarting the game fixed it otherwise all screen shots of him would have made me feel very awkward about posting them.

@dethdukk: Honestly the double deviance aspirations came about because of my frustration about having to abandon my first go at the new version of the Immortal dynasty.
But if the mind set is "right" they can be loads of fun to play through.
Marko will probably be a happier sim once we are done with the Public Enemy one.

12. The fighting is done and over with

My misadventures of trying to make Marko angry continues.
Marko is having a very bad day when it comes to fighting, he keeps getting dazed.
I guess he is just too good natured a sim to get angry easily or at all.
That wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the fact that his final aspiration needs him to be angry.

Oopsie another instance of me forgeting to pause the game and the household neglecting themselves.
Better queue up toilet visits, eat some food and go to sleep for more or less all of them.

Well done Vlad! With a few days to spare he completed his childhood aspiration and has thus completed the first part of contributing 10 museum items.

Oh well about 2 days before his adult birthday Marko finally got angry enough to get into his last fight. Of course he lost it like almost all of his fights.
All that is left now is to pick the pockets of sims 20 times.
That will be much easier than getting him angry.

The day before Markos adult birthday it is time for Vlad to become a teen.
I'm really curious how he will turn out.

Oooh, he is so cute! He is a really good mixture of Marko and Olivia.

Congratulations on your first immortal, and Vlad is lovely!

[KTK10]

Oh yes, Vlad is a cutie indeed. I too have trouble getting my sims angry to accomplish milestones.. glad that you have finished that part!

[Margerita]

This might be my last post in this dynasty thread until next year since lately I've been distracting myself with other games.
In case it is I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

13. Farewell Nina and welcome Ann

Farewell Nina, you were a great addition to the household.



The only good thing about Ninas death being the first of the sisters is that I can have Dina adopt Vlads wife to be.

Welcome Ann to the household.


It is time for Vlad to trow his first party, hopefully it will be a gold medal one.
Markos adult birthday party did get a gold, it seems that as long as the toast doesn't make an appreance I can get a gold easily for that type.

On friday I forgot to give Vlad his energy potion before he went to school.
The end result was one exhausted and smelly sim when he came home...


I have decided to have Marko max comedy for his third and final required skill.
Don volonteers to provide an audience for him for his first go at it.




Overall Marko is doing great when it comes to his requirements.
1 promotions left in his career, 1 more skill to max, need to pick the pockets of about 15 more sims, 2 more gold medal parties needed and of course the ever present friends requirement and oh yeah he needs to get his museum items, but that should be very easy. He is 17 days away from being an elder but I'm not worried about him at all.

[KTK10]

Loved the last few screenshots of Marko trying out his comedy routine! Welcome to Ann and farewell to Nina. Have a wonderful Christmas and New Year, as always keep safe and remain happy!

[Playalot]

Marko is doing really well! Have a lovely xmas.  Looking forward to more next year. Isn't Ann a wee cutie!

[MarianT]

Have a wonderful holiday -- I'm looking forward to seeing more!

Woo, Congratulations on your first Immortal (Yes, I am just now catching up on this thread).

What a great idea, 'adopting' a spouse for one of the kids when they're still children. I'll have to remember that one.

Also, I've also had issues with getting a sim angry enough to start fights for that aspiration - great job accomplishing it. I haven't played that sim in a while, but my plan was to have someone paint an angry painting that could be viewed at any time for the angry moodlet.

A very happy holidays to you, too!

[Margerita]

@Whirligig :  The painting might do it if he isn't in a good enough mood to over ride it, depends on the room and the house you got I guess.
I admit it was a hassle to get it done, especially since if he won he got a confident moodlet that overrode the angry one in all but one case - if he lost, as he mostly did, he got dazed and had to go and do something else.

The trick is to get to that point early and to take trips out of the house and just keep working on it, it helped that the criminal career started at either the evening or at night and that he had the never weary reward so that I just needed to make sure his none energy bar was capped.
Tricky, a bit time consuming but doable if you start it early enough.

Great restart, Margerita! I'm impressed with your tackling Public Enemy; I'm going to avoid it in this dynasty if I possibly can.  When I had to it for a Pinstar Legacy, the only way I could get my good-natured Sim angry was to have his wife show up and flirt with the target.  Didn't do great things for the marriage, but they were always able to make up, and he did get his fights out of the way.

So sorry to hear for what happened to Mitsuos. I’m glad that you decided to create a new one. I love how this dynasty started out with some sense of humor. How fortunate for Don to get pomegranate at the park! That’s an awesome info.

Phew. 28 minutes left before the timer is out? I can feel that. I always end up panicked for what to do and then when it’s failed, I always assure myself that just let it go and wish a better luck next time. Wow, you planned it throughout! Well, haven’t given any thought for that. That gives me idea for what will coming next. Thankies!

LOL, that’s hilarious! Oh, Marko… tsk tsk tsk… Thankfully that he’s not nude for his wedding, that’d be something

Congratulations on the Immortal, wish that you have wonderful holidays and good luck with this attempt
