Three Strands Accord - a Rivals Dynasty Challenge: Complete (15-Sep)

[MarianT]

What interesting households! It will be fun to see how each develops. Mosi is absolutely gorgeous. And so many children with violet eyes!

[GlazeyLady]

Wow - Full house number 1 already!
All three families are off to such a great start (I've been very busy at work lately, so just now catching up reading about all the families at once.)
The banter between the members of different families when they run into each other is fun - looking forward to more of that.
I love how different your households/bloodlines are - so much room for variety in storytelling.
I'm glad Lilith lured Darrell away, especially since Kiama doesn't seem broken up over it - I've never been a fan of his. Morgyn certainly has better features, but I wonder if Science Baby will be an option given the special gender customization - in my BDD, I wanted Daphne to have Guidry's baby, but Guidry also has special gender customization and can't father children. There was also no option for a Science Baby with him. I'm wondering whether the same will be true for Morgyn.

Not much love out there for Darrel, except from Lilith, but he does have a Strong Bloodline and those violet eyes. Actually, I think his biggest asset is that he brought Minerva with him. I love her! I think Kiama doesn't mind because of the Free Love NAP but the other Spellcasters were shocked at his defection to the Vampires, in my imagination anyway. I believe things might prove tense if she meets them outside the area!

Ah - that might be a shame if there's no Science Baby option with Morgyn. I don't want to move him in to change his abilities in that regard. He seems like too much character to play such a side role in this challenge. There are other options for Kiama to explore.

I hope work is settling down, unless you like busy. In which case, Yay!

[oshizu]

The biggest difference between Guidry and Morgyn is that Morgyn is not a ghost.
Try for Baby with a ghost has never been possible in game.  Let us know what happens, Watcher!

True - Guidry is a ghost. When Daphne couldn't have a Science Baby with him, she gave Bonehilda a shot - also a no go.
I ran a quick test and even with full friendship and full romance with Morgyn, Science Baby wasn't an option for my Sim.
I do have several mods installed, but I think this is due to the gender specific settings and not anything mod-related.

[Granny Lawlor]

So helpful - thank you, both @oshizu & @GlazeyLady - no easy babies with Morgyn but that wasn't a prime aim anyway. I'm just wrapping up my week with the Retail Tangatas so Kiama's up next!

[Granny Lawlor]

Three Strands Accord: Tangata Week 2: Hidden Dragon
Retail Bloodline:

Alan: Well done, Monica. I know you can do it. You’ve done it before. We’ve only go until Wednesday so hold that head up.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Maaike: Hey Gang, we’re all getting new traits at the moment!
Alan: Can you believe I’m Neat? Where’s that duster?
Ulrike: I may be Single & Loving It but I’m also Outgoing. I’m just a contradiction wrapped in a mystery.
Holly: That you are! Me and Maaike have been trying to get fit so that we don’t get burnout. You’re heading for that soon if you don’t take up some other activities!
Ulrike: No-one can stop me painting! My latest portrait of Alan is nearly double the value of the last.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Alan: Go on! I’ve got to hang about to see another performer. Can you not give me a discount? I’m a working man!
Kalamainu'u: You do know I’m Mean, right?

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Watcher: Come on Maaike. We’ve had Monica’s birthday notice. It’s time to wake her up.
Maaike: But she’s adorable when she’s asleep. And she hates waking up.
Watcher: Time! Maaike!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Alan: I know you don’t like waking up, Monica but it’s a big day today. Finish your bottle, a quick nappy change and then you’ll be ready.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Watcher: Now, ladies & gentlemen, here are Monica’s milestones immediately before she blows her candles out. Apologies for the missing Gross Movement line. You can see she has 15 milestones out a  possible 31 and only 2 in the Fine Movement section. Will she get Top-Notch Infant?

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Alan: Shall we see, sweet Monica? Are you a Top-Notch Infant? You are in my eyes!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Alan: And you are in real terms too. Top-Notch Infant and you’re a little Charmer too! Let’s play! Oh Monica! You’re Aggressive and like to Wander. We’ll have to keep a close eye on you. No shop this week!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Maaike: Come on, Monica, what’s this?
Monica: Bus!
Maaike: Very good. Now why don’t we run around looking at the pictures while Daddy watches the street performer in the rain.
Monica: Run run run

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Maaike: And the little girl never bit anyone and only very occasionally hit her cuddly dragon.
Monica: Me hit Dragon.
Maaike: I know you want to but Watcher always stops you so Dragon is safe.
Monica: Me love Dragon.
Maaike: Yes sweet girl. I know you do. Hitting people we love isn’t OK..
Monica: Oh

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Diego: Hey, Holly. Shall we live together, as we’re such good friends.
Holly: Yeah, why not! Is that OK Watcher?
Watcher: If you want. Stay in the club though, right?
Holly: Oh yes! I love coming here to clean and fix your stuff!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Watcher: Monica is asleep under the roof but essentially outside. She is dreaming of wandering far and wide, rough-housing with Dragons and biting Princes. She is looking forward to waking up as she Loves Waking Up in a complete reversal of her Infant self.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Maaike: It’s Summer Fever day! Are we going to do the streaking?
Alan: Yay! I’m off round the neighbourhood!
Maaike: Ulrike and I just stepped out of our clothes for a moment and then got dressed again straight away. You don’t need to go all round the neighbourhood!
Alan: If a job’s worth doing, it’s worth doing properly!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Alan: Ah, that was fun. Reminded me of my time in the Facility – all those outdoor showers.
Maaike: Oh um welcome back, Alan.
Alan: Where are you going? Isn't it time for the bonfire fun?
Maaike: I’m going to see what’s happening.
Alan: That’s just Kyle. Shall I invite him in?
Maaike: Mm, why not!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Alan: Wow! Thorne Bailey! In the flesh! May I take a photo?
Thorne: Anything for a true fan.
Alan: It’s not for me. It’s for my penpal Prince. He says it will “speak to your character”.
Thorne: Hey! Weren’t you streaking just now as well?
Alan: It’s not me that’s tangled up in a paternity court case!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Monica: Unca Diego, tell me letters.
Diego: It’s not very good for my threads, kneeling on the grass, but anything for you, little one. No more rough play, though. One black eye is enough. Why can’t Ulrike do that with you?
Monica: Rika fishy fishy
Diego: Oh yes. I’d heard she’d become Adventurous. It’s a good way to stop Burnout as an artist.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Alan: It’s great how the club have all helped Monica get all her skills up.
Maaike: She didn’t need to but all the skills increased at the same time so it seemed silly to stop at maxing just 2.
Alan: Happy Birthday, Monica!
Monica: Pfft!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Monica: And just like that, I’m an Active Child with Top-Notch Toddler. I like Green and Orange clothing. Now, how will we spend my birthday?

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Monica: This is how! I’m in the back room creating drawings. Dad whipped them away as soon as I’d done them. Look! He’s put them up in the shop. And they’re for sale! I don’t know whether to be proud, mad or embarrassed! He even put my school project up for sale as soon as I'd finished it. What will I tell the teacher?

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Monica: I did get to meet Helen Kenna. She’s got a droopy eye in this photo but the others were just silly ones or whited out. She looks nice, doesn’t she. I think we could be friends. Well we would have become friends but Dad nagged her about distracting me from my work, claimed all kids have “sticky fingers” and told her to leave. I hope she’ll still be my friend. I love Dad – we’re Good Friends already – but he has some funny ideas.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Alan: The Calixte family must have been voting on the NAPs in Magnolia Promenade. The behaviour here is quite shocking! I wonder if I can repeal it as a shop owner! I definitely want to ban kids – touching everything before they buy it. My Monica knows how to act in a top class art gallery!

Watcher Note
I’m still not getting Top-Notch Toddler automatically. I use the cheat to add it if the child has earned it.

I’m using Pinstar’s traits generator to get the heirs traits although I am cherry-picking the parents traits from those they develop so I swapped Maaike’s added Active trait in for her Snob one.

Dragon isn't totally hidden, sneaking into 2 of the pics, but you get the reference, right?

[Granny Lawlor]

Three Strands Accord: Calixte Week 2: Be Careful What You Wish For
Spellcaster Bloodline

Kiama: Oh, I’m so over this job. If only there was a shortcut!
Watcher: What about the wishing well?
Kiama: I don’t know. It’s not very reliable.
Watcher: You’re the only bloodline that’s got one. You might as well use it.
Kiama: I do meet the requirements for my next promotion. You never know, it might promote me all the way to the top and then I’d be able to focus on my Spellcasting and have time for another baby.
Watcher: What are you waiting for?

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Kiama: Lovely Wishing Well, you look so happy! Please grant my wish for promotion in my career.
WW: Just one simoleon? Hm. Seeing as it’s you…

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

WW: How dare you try to take a free ride off my good mood. You not only don’t get a promotion, you’re busted!
Kiama: What? A demotion?
WW: Worse than that! You allowed Darrel to leave!
Kiama: He wanted to go with Lilith. No-one missed him!
WW: I missed him. Besides, your Rival Alan Tangata allowed his helper Holly to move out.
Kiama: What’s that got to do with me?
WW: You are all fruit of the same poisonous tree! Back to the beginning of this challenge you will ALL go!
Kiama: But my little Mosi?
WW: May or may not return. Either way, you will not remember. Begone!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Watcher Explanation

And so it was that this sad tale needs to restart. 
Helpers are not allowed to be moved out until the current heir is also ready to move out. Although the request to live together is a new interaction and this Watcher didn’t initiate them, allowing it would open up a very wide loophole for all sorts of shenanigans.

I have learnt a lot along the short way and look forward to a slightly different story. It wouldn’t be a challenge if I could complete it on the first attempt. Dear readers, if you spot other rule infractions, do feel free to message me and query them. Accountability is a wonderful thing.

I will keep this thread, with leap-frog links in the first post, unless that would be too confusing? The prologue will still serve as I’ll keep the same founders. Retail for the potential variety in generations; Spellcasting because I’ve still not explored that fully; Well-Educated to see if it’s possible to keep up with or even beat the others.

Will the spouses and helpers be the same? Can there be another Mosi, Helen and Monica? Will another Free Love NAP get in? These and other things will be under review. I shall return after a little tweaking and planning.

 

[oshizu]

Oh, that ornery Wishing Well!

I will be curious to see what changes you make in terms of choosing spouses and helpers.
Will you keep the Free Love N.A.P., repeal it right away, or turn a blind eye to the, um, transgressions?
For the Well-Education bloodline, I am eager to see how soon your heirs will be able to enroll in uni (in their 1st week as teens?) and max their careers.
Looking forward to your comeback, Watcher!

I'm keeping NPC NAP voting on for the challenge of it so Free Love could get in again. It was...interesting and sort of worked with the idea of a commune. But I was getting worried about how things would go down if they met in a non-Free Love neighbourhood. We shall see how the runes fall this time 

I've seen someone's played out degree vs career level 1 and there was just a few days in it. That was a non Distinguished Degree. Kiama (spellcaster) is going in at level 1. Alan (retail) is planning to get Connections first. It's all fun 

The heirs, yes I'm hoping to get them graduated from High School early and a head start on the degree. They could storm ahead...but can't have children until they move out... I would mock up a timeline if I was a detail person...

[GlazeyLady]

Sorry to hear you need to restart, but at least it happened early. Looking forward to the new beginning.

[Granny Lawlor]

The Founder Lots have been regenerated ready for the Challenge relaunch. They are all created with the starting $17k after purchasing the lot and before any other influx of funds. They are all in Tier 1 of the Tiny Residential category and have 2 non-skilling lot traits and 1 challenge.

Kenna Beginnings - Well-Educated
Rippling Flats, Llama Lagoon
Eco-Lot, Geothermal, Reduce & Recycle

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Will's lot has a main living area, with kitchen and computer. The bathroom and nursery are in a separated annex, joined to the main house by a wall hiding the outdoor utility area (dumpster plus room for future recycler & water catchers).
The outdoor covered area has various activity items plus room for a few sheltered plants, mainly to experiment with grafting
There should be a couple of tents for sleeping/relaxing.
When funds allow, solar panels and wind turbines will be added to the roof.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Calixte Beginnings - Spellcaster
Ridgeline Drive, Optimists Outlook
Ley Line, Great Soil, Simple Living

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Kiama's shack is thatched with a sheltered area for tender plants but plenty of room for a kitchen garden providing food and potion ingredients. Chickens, bees and bugs may make an appearance.
The nursery and bathroom are set in to the back of the shack, leaving an unusual indoor shape for kitchen and writing area.
A few activity items are in the covered outdoor area but there is plenty of room to practise magic.
The cauldron is again in a circle of silver birches at the back of the lot. The tents have been set into a secluded wooded area, away from the busy areas, just in case the Free Love NAP returns!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Tangata Beginnings - Retail
Bridgeview, Middleton Meadows
Geothermal, Penny Pixies, Reduce & Recycle

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

It is not easy to show the structure of the Alan's home. The front wall of the main building extends to the left and visitors pass through an arch to find the front door.
The main living area, like the others, houses a kitchen and computer area.
The bathroom and nursery are in a slightly off-set section, accessed through an arch in a privacy wall, keeping the sleeping tents away from the busyness of the painting and exercise areas.
A covered area of green would provide a sheltered area to grow tender plants.
The oildrum trashcan will be replaced by a dumpster in which Alan is hoping to find items to sell in his shop. But his main focus will be to develop a high-class art gallery.

[Rhoxi]

What an abrupt ending - the use of the wishing well for that was nice. Looking forward to round number 2!

[Granny Lawlor]

Three Strands Accord: Kenna Week 1: The First Time
Well-Educated Bloodline

Will: Now then. What is I need to do? Get some skills up and meet some helpers. Let’s make a start!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Will: Hello. I thought I’d pop round and introduce myself. I’m a Bookworm, like you. I used to be Family-Oriented but now I’m a Geek, also like you. I also happen to be a Genius! We ought to get on like a house on fire!
Liberty: And yet, you and I are incompatible. You’d better come in and meet the others. Just don’t mention the weather. For some reason, Summer really hates that.
Will: OK.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Travis: Ah – a fellow Geek. Are you thinking about joining the Tech Guru career like me?
Will: Yes but I thought I’d get a degree first. I don’t know if it will help but it should give me all the skills I need.
Travis: Interesting.
Summer: Oh – he seems really nice! I must be cool. I’ve been considered for dynasties before. Will looks like he’d be kind. I wonder if his Watcher would treat me with respect.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Summer: Thanks for adding us to your Kenna Club. You’ve got an interesting place here. Most of your living space is outside.
Will: I’m starting a dynasty and it’s a bit of a race so when we have kids they’ll need the advantage of a Tiny home.
Summer: “we” have kids?
Will: Oh, um, “we” as my family. Although, now you bring it up, is it something you’d be interested in?
Summer: Would you let me be truly me? Not just set me up as a stereotype?
Will: Why don’t you move in and have that conversation with my Watcher?
Summer: OK. Travis and Libs will come too, if there’s room?
Will: Definitely!
Summer: By the way, you’re very chatty. Are you sure you’re not Outgoing like me?
Watcher: He is now.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Will: Wow – your new wardrobes aren’t what I expected at all.
Summer: In chatting to Watcher, we realized that I like Basics and Outdoorsy fashions in Greys. I knew you liked Blue so that’s what we’ve got. I’ve kept my stripey outfit because apparently that’s iconic!
Will: You look great. Liberty too!
Liberty: Like you’ve got eyes for me! I went for Hipster and Rocker fashions in Purples and Greys. It’s weird how Summer and I both like Grey.
Summer: I thought you only liked Hipster fashion. It’s Travis that likes Rocker styles. Oh! I see you’re not wearing any red either.
Liberty: Just because Travis hates red, doesn’t mean me not wearing any means anything.
Summer: Of course it doesn’t! What do you think, Will?
Will: Oh no! I’m not jumping into this minefield!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Watcher: Travis removed all the red in his wardrobe, although I may have left his iconic pringle sweater. He kept his job as a Tech Guru but Summer and Liberty both got new careers. Summer as a Bodybuilder and Liberty as a Scientist. We won’t be following her to work until she reaches higher levels.
So, with Summer no longer incompatible with Geeky Outgoing Will, their romance progressed smoothly with a series of ever better dates, until Summer popped the question and Will said “yes”!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Watcher: Travis loved Liberty’s new outfits but was glad that she kept her hair in bunches. Their relationship developed over her love of chess which builds her lightbulb moments for work. Whilst they only had a few dates, Travis was moved to ask and Liberty said “yes”, of course.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Watcher: Everyone dressed up and went to Myshuno Meadows to get married. Travis was the Officiant for Will and Summer’s somewhat embarrassed vows.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Watcher: By the time our Founder and his Bride had stuttered through everything they wanted to say, the weather had turned cold and everyone had changed into their Cold Weather outfits. Travis and Liberty didn’t mind. They said their vows confidently and without hesitation, not being constricted in Formal outfits.
It is worth noting at this point that all this had happened by early Tuesday morning! Ah, the wonders of Sims relationships!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Watcher: Tuesday this week is GeekCon. Liberty really wanted to go to work but the other three called in a vacation day.
Will: I know GeekCon isn’t really your thing Summer.
Summer: Oh, I live with 3 Geeks! I know it’s part of the deal. Besides which, there are lots of lovely people to meet here and I’d really like to be a Friend of the World! By the way, have you submitted your University application like you wanted?
Will: Yes – I got my programming and video gaming up both up to level 3 so it was time. But I actually brought you here because, well, I want our first time to be special.
Summer: Our first time at GeekCon?
Will: No. Our first time, you know…
Summer: Oh! Our First Time! Right!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Watcher: But before their First Time, some celebrity called Judith Ward scooted into the rocket, making sure lots of people noticed her and took lots of photos. Drat that woman!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Summer: There’s lots of interesting people around here.
Watcher: Yes – look behind you.
Summer: Oh, yes but he doesn’t look very interesting.
Watcher: He’s Father Winter!
Summer: No! Surely not! Dressed as Indiana Jones?
Watcher: Wrong franchise. Never mind.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Travis: This is great! I’m not going to win on my first attempt but it’s great fun. Difficult to believe I’m not upping my Fitness. I can definitely feel aerobic activity going on.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Will: Finally! I thought that woman would never return. Quick! Before anyone else gets in.
Summer: There’s only an hour left of GeekCon. Do we have time?
Will: We have all the time in the world. Let’s go round the moon twice for luck!
Summer: Oh Will. You really are special!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Liberty: If we try now, our baby will be born just after Summer and Will’s. Look – it’s all here on this App.
Travis (playing Blicbloc): Hm?
Liberty: I said…never mind. Put that down and come with me.
Travis: Where are we going?
Liberty: There’s a tent out there with our names on it!
Travis: Really? I thought we could use either of them.
Liberty: Travis! I know you’re smart but not as smart as me so just do as I say!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Summer: Thanks for asking me on a date after work.
Will: You’re doing really well. I reckon you’ll get a promotion tomorrow.
Summer: Liberty’s doing better but she didn’t take Tuesday off.
Will: Hm. She should have done. She’s heading for a Burnout.
Summer: Did you get your University offer?
Will: Yes but I didn’t get on the Distinguished degree course for Computer Science.
Summer: Oh no! Why not?
Will: I needed more Research & Debate skill. Well, any in fact!
Watcher: Sorry – my bad!
Summer: What Distinguished degrees have you been offered?
Will: Economics, History, Communications and Psychology. It will mean a different career… I’ll have to think about it.
Summer: You’ll make it work. Wasn’t it weird – that old witch serving behind the bar!
Will: I think they like to be called Spellcasters. I didn’t get a chance to say hello but I think her name is Minerva Charm.
Summer: She must be short of a bob or two to be working in her Elder lifestage.
Will: Maybe she enjoys it.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Will: Congratulations on your promotion, Darling!
Summer: Mwa!
Watcher: Llama Unicorns blowing kisses? Why not!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Liberty: I can’t believe you’re beating me!
Summer: Just lucky I guess!
Liberty: But I’m a Genius and you’re….
Summer: Yes? I’m….?
Liberty: A very smart woman with an agile mind.
Summer: Well saved!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Medical Intern: I’ve never had this before!
Will: I know! She got so big in the outfit that she can’t get it off!
Medical Intern: We’ll have to cut it off, I think!
Summer: Anything! Just get this baby out! I’m going to POP!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Summer: Welcome, little Valentine. For some reason, I really thought you were going to be a girl…

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Liberty: It's time - I'm ready to have this baby
Receptionist: Thank goodness you're in normal clothes. It’s just that we had to cut the last patient out of their work outfit…

Liberty: Tiny Tim! You’re just what I was hoping for. You’ve made me so Cheerful!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Watcher: 24 hours later, just before midnight on Saturday...
Valentine (Smiling)
Summer: What a lovely smile, sweetheart. And you’ve got my bright blue eyes.
Watcher: Not violet?
Summer: No, bright blue. He’s perfect.
Watcher: Yes, he is. And for some reason, you are now Ambitious. Interesting!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Liberty: You’re perfect too. Just wait until next time. We’re going to have so much fun!

Watcher Note

I was hoping for a girl again but not to name her Helen. I’d picked out the name Valentina after Valentina Tereshkova, the first woman in space. Maybe he should be Yuri but Valentine he is.

In doing the townie makeovers this time, I'm hoping to take their existing preferences into consideration rather than my own. I am removing their dislikes of certain décor though. It's so hard to make sure something you put in "isn't" a particular style and then they get all stressy about it.

[oshizu]

Liberty is one of my favorite townies and you know I'm a fan of Will!
Congrats, Will, on your distinguished degree offers! 
Hmmm, Professor Kenna...I rather like the sound of that!
It's official. I'm #TeamKenna!

P.S. My sims get offered the Ambitious trait every single time they earn a promotion...
