The Bee Domination Dynasty [complete]

[Alex]

It’s traditional to play Domination Dynasties with rainbow sims, but how could I do that when I already had a perfectly good Bee saved in my Sim Bin? So instead, this is what happened to Queenie Bee after her many-greats-grandson Killer evicted her from the hive and stole her throne. With a name like that, she should probably be thankful she only got evicted 

Honey thought a Domination Dynasty would be a nice way for Queenie to learn some humility, and understand how her worker bees had felt doing all those jobs and completing all those tasks. Maybe once she’d learned her lesson, they could welcome her back to the hive as a wiser bee?

Killer just cackled.

Queenie’s had a personality transplant and is now Ambitious, Bookworm, Loves the Outdoors, Family Oriented and Born Saleswoman; Quentin’s traits are virtually identical except that he’s got Artistic instead of Born Salesman. They’ve both got Surrounded by Family as a LTW. They started out as a fairy (Queenie) and vampire (Quentin), but that only lasted until the first lot of clones were required.

And so the Bees took over Appaloosa Plains, and Queenie had a happy hive once more. Just her, Quentin, and a doting son who just happens to be Evil and Hot Headed – what could possibly go wrong...?

[Lisa46]

Ooooh, gold slider!

[Trip]

Nice work yet again! I'm moving this to the Completed Dynasties board.

[Malley]

Congrats on completing another dynasty!

[Nettlejuice]

Many congratulations! Poor Queenie, it's no fun being beaten by your own drone, lol.

[Alex]

Thank you

Poor Queenie, it's no fun being beaten by your own drone, lol.

I know  But when he aged up with those traits, I couldn't resist

Ooooh, gold slider!

Indeed - I hadn't played with it before, but I think I'm a fan: I really like the shift it gives between totally normal-looking Sims, and Sims that are really, really yellow.
