The Lancaster Dynasty (Bugged-)
« on: December 26, 2010, 06:56:17 PM »
Okay guys, I have decided to see if I can conquer the rules of the Immortal Dynasty for the first time. So sit back, relax and hope I can keep track of everything! :)
Here it goes!

Meet Alexander Lancaster. He's not really sure where he came from, some suspect he came from the East. Some say he's from the West. Some even say he came from the heavens. Whatever his past, one thing is certain,  Alexander came with an important mission: To become Immortal and lead a dynasty forever.

Here he is enjoying his most favorite past time: Fishing!

Traits: Workaholic, Schmoozer, Ambitious, Angler, Friendly
LTW: CEO of Mega-Corporation
Career: Business
 


Alexander soon realized that for his new job at the Doo Peas Corporate Towers he needed to be friendlier with his Boss, Iqbal Alvi.
So he decided to take him on a fishing trip! Turned out Iqbal loved to fish just as much as Alex and soon they were best friends.


The next day after work, Alex decided to go visit his neighbor and co-worker Nick Alto.
However, Nick was not home and his daughter Holly ended up answering the door.
Instantly, Alex had succumbed to her beauty and artistic flair. Too bad she was a teen.

Alex: " So when do you grow up?"
Holly" In about four days I guess. I'll invite you to my party!"
Alex: " I can't wait!"


Four days, and two job levels later Alex received an invitation to Holly Alto's Birthday Party!
Alex and Holly talked all night and soon there were sparks flying.

Alex: " So, will you marry me now that you've grown up?"
Holly: " Definitely, I can't wait to get out of this house! My parents are weird. And of course because somehow within the last few minutes I fell in love with you.."


Alex and Holly ended up eloping the next day.
Her parents weren't exactly thrilled when they found out that some of their family fortune was being handed over to some homeless Report Processor, but at least Alex was becoming good friends with Nick at work.

Holly came into the Lancaster family loaded with dough.
Not only did she bring a couple thousand but she also brought along her Maragret Vaguester.

Holly felt bad that Alex had no house, plus she really didn't want to sleep outside.
So, she sold her favorite car and surprised Alex with a new house that she built herself.
Her inspiration was to make this house a home. She added a country ranch feel and added a lot of reds, tans, yellows, and browns to her color palette. She also wanted to make it drastically different from her old home. (The Alto's house had the ugliest patterns and furniture, haha)


Holly was really proud of her handy work. She just wished she could get a job in the Architectural design profession (her LTW is to reach the top of that profession too!) , but Alex told her she had to just paint and garden for awhile.
However, Alex told her that she might be able to dabble in design for a little bit because she came into the family with level 5 painting and level 6 (or 7) gardening skills!

----------------------------------------------------

Alright, so I didn't get as far as I wanted too because I spent WAY too much time on their house. I've just started to enjoy building houses from scratch so I went all out on this family. I'm still not done with the interior and I still have to plan out how I'm going to fit other family members when they come but I still like what I have so far.

I hoped you all enjoyed the first installment of the Lancaster Dynasty ;)

P.S. So, Holly just was supposed to be a Young Adult. But some how when she got married to Alex she was an Adult?? Is this a bug?

O Mee Pooba!

So Holly has been put to work. She's been busy tending to her new garden, painting, and sculpting!



Meanwhile Alex has been working on his fishing skill trying to max it out

The paparazzi will not leave him alone anymore! Now that he's a two level celebrity they follow him everywhere.
This certain paparazzi looks like she's about to poof into thin air. Too bad she just has a bright flash on her camera. :(

That Night...
Since Holly somehow skipped her Young Adult phase she decided to talk to Alex about starting a family.

Holly: " So I have been thinking since I am several years older than you..We need to begin a family before it's too late"
Alex: " Agreed, I will need someone else to depend on when you are gone.."
Holly: "Don't talk like that. I'm not THAT old yet!"
Alex: " Sorry dear.."
Holly: " You're forgiven, now let's get down to business!"



Soon thereafter, Holly became pregnant and several months later they went to the doctor found out it was a Girl!
 
Alex:" Oh my! I think I felt her kick me in the face!"
Holly: " Aw..I can already tell she is going to be fiesty! So..anyways, I was thinking of naming her Julia..Because I know we're gonna need a cook in the family. And I absolutely adore Julia Child."
Alex: " Julia Chi...who?"
Holly: "You know the famous chef who was really good at cooking French food?"
Alex: " Right..well yeah we will need someone to cook the Ambrosia, and other food besides Tofu hotdogs. I love ya hun but you're cooking ain't so grand.."
Holly: " Well if you didn't make me paint, garden, and sculpt all day MAYBE I'd be better at it!"


Suddenly Holly's water broke and it was time to head to the Hospital!
After a couple hours, a new baby girl was born.
People, meet Julia Lancaster! The future Chef of the family!

@Lilygirl: Thank you! It's coming along nicer than I thought it would :P



Soon it was time for Alexander to age up into a full blown adult like his wife.
Here he is pictured at Claire Ursine's house trying to complete one of his BlackOps


Alex: "Woah..what's happening??"
Claire Ursine: " Bwahah! You're growing up ya ding dong! Now you're even closer to dying!"
Alex: " Oh wow..my chest feels all tingly!..I..can't..breathe.."


Meanwhile..Julia also grew up into a beautiful toddler.

Her traits: Artistic, Loves the Outdoors.

Holly and Julia spent several days plowing through all of the toddler skills. Soon Julia was able to use the potty by herself, tell her mommy when she wanted more food, and walk to her dolly house when she wanted to have some fun and socialization.

Holly: " You're such a smart little girl. I can't wait till you can use the pink stove I bought you. :)"
Julia: " Hotty Baba along with Hotty Ba!"


The next morning, Alex woke up, grabbed some angelfish bait, and headed to the graveyard.
Today was the day he was going to catch the infamous death fish!

Alex: " SCORE! I got you bad boy! I hope you don't taste too much like death when I eat you later.."

Awesome story Kattiq!
Thanks Esther :)

Okay guys, This is pretty much an update ALL about Julia, because basically Alex has been fishing his butt off trying to catch the 350 fish that is required in the skill journal! And Holly has been painting, gardening and cleaning the house (thank goodness she has the neat trait).


Julia finally upgraded to child status and now has the traits: Artistic, Loves the Outdoors, and Bookworm.


Since Julia is going to be the cook of the family, I had her start early.
As you can see in the picture below she isn't starting out too well.


Finally she gets a grip on her cooking skills and bakes muffins, cookies, and brownies perfectly!

Julia: " Mmmmm, just smell this yummy goodness people! Please come by my stand! 5 simoleons each!"

Eventually, Julia grows up into a pretty good looking teen.

Just kidding, she looks a little deformed it must have been all those burnt brownies she ate when she was a kid.

Julia finally irons out all the kinks she had when she was transforming to a teen.
She gains the trait: Kleptomanic.

Julia: " Sorry, about that scare back there guys. I was having MAJOR growing pains if ya know what I mean ;) "

The next few days as a teen Julia accidentally forgot to get home before 12 because she was busy doing "stuff". So, she got arrested by the police. Good thing they didn't find the couch hidden in her back pocket. Teheehee.

Julia: " Man, this is the third time mom has had to lecture me this week. She's going to kill me."

A couple days later, Julia met Cedric Goth at school.
When she invited him over he somehow became an adult overnight. Not to worry though, this did not detour Julia one bit. She seemed taken by the purple haired, ripped pants, and his insanity.

Cedric: " I usually like to wear my swimming clothes when I go to pretty girls houses, it tends to show my nice abs but somehow I ended up in my normal clothes instead!"
Julia: " Oh..that's okay your normal clothes send my heart fluttering too. Although next time, if you somehow came in your swim shorts...I wouldn't complain."


That night it was time for Alex to grow up into an elder, he is almost to immortal status! He just needs his elder portrait done, a new best friend cause one of his died, and catch about 40 more fish! I'm also waiting on Julia to get to level 10 cooking so I can just have her learn the Ambrosia recipe. ( I could have Holly do it but she's about to die any day now and I'd much rather not have to buy the book twice. So I hope Alex stays alive long enough!)


Oh, and I thought you guys would want to see the new addition to the family.

Meet Ray the Kissing Gourami!

Thanks Ratchie, I just hope I can make it past the first immortal. I've never been this in depth with this game before so I'm doing it all for the first time!

Before I attempted my first dynasty(The Smiths are my second attempt I forgot a portrait the first time round)I had never had a Sim go fishing and I had never supermaxed anything. Well maybe handiness by pure luck not because I was trying.
I never thought I would be able to do it.

You are doing really well keep it up.
