ConclusionFollowing extension consultation and some research into actual conditions in HoB, a decision has been made.
It has been determined that the WC chosen has no alternative, under the current restrictions, than to enter the Chef career. The Botanist career would make garden produce usable but not in recipes until a Chef has worked with them.
All of the WCs have the Forever Full, Connections and Entrepreneurial traits and have maxed the Cooking, Gourmet Cooking and Mixology skills so they should clear the career swiftly. Starting a family will be the second priority so a maxed Charisma skill and the Incredibly Friendly trait are paramount.
It should be stated, at this point, that Robyn Redbreast has withdrawn her application. It seems that the restriction on hair-dyes was insurmountable.
It is also felt that Sam Weatherwax, with his Recycle-Disciple trait would feel frustrated by the absence of recycling and fabrication items.
Of the remaining three candidates, there has been strong support for Coral Odrade. However, with the need to make career advancements before having offspring, the agency feel that a male candidate is required. He will be able to produce offspring with a younger spouse, giving a better chance to the continuance of this project.
The superficial traits preferred by the designated Watcher have been taken into consideration and a one-time eye-colour adjustment will be allowed.
The chosen candidate to enter the Apocalypse Project is:
Flint Acoma
NotesCoral was my preferred Sim in terms of genetics but now I've worked out that the founder has more time as a male (why didn't I think of that sooner? doh!), there is now really only one choice! Ah - if only Forrest Everdeen had kept to the project! What might have been...
