My Disney Princess Challenge

Hi, guys! And welcome to my attempt at the Disney Princess Challenge! I'll be posting updates to the challenge in this discussion as soon as I manage to make full member (because otherwise, I'd be unable to post pictures). Now, this is the first challenge I've tried to post in this sort of style, so I appreciate all the advice you can give, and I hope to really develop my creative skills from this! This is also the time I've taken so many pictures of my sims before, so, if you have any advice for them too, I'd really appreciate it.

Rules for Generation 1:

Generation 1: Snow White "I'm wishing for the one I love to find me today"
Founders have humble beginnings, so what's better than Snow White? To start, create Snow White. Storytellers may create her as a teenager and make her evil stepmother, but this is not a requirement. When Snow White becomes a young adult, this story begins.
- Must be female
- Must have 7 children (dwarfs)
- Each child must have one bad trait (e.g Mean Spirited) and no children may have the same traits
- Each child must have the same baby daddy
- Snow may only marry once her 7th child is a teenager
- Snow may never answer the door to strangers or talk to elderly women

Hopefully I'll post the very first chapter soon! It's already in the works :smiley:

    Chapter 1.10

    It's certainly been a while since I've updated this story, but I'm still not giving up! So, get ready for a bunch of chapters full of birthdays, teenagers, and, even a wedding!

    http://oi65.tinypic.com/120l8o9.jpg

    Damian soon had his own birthday, and it wasn't a particularly exciting birthday, to be honest. He just stopped randomly and started celebrating.

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/2vnqvwm.jpg

    He looks good as a teen, and, thank goodness, this means there's only one child left in this household: Cinderella. No offense to all the kids, but dealing with them was driving me up the wall, and I can't imagine how Snow and Florian were feeling!

    They had little time to celebrate Damian's birthday, though. As there was a very important even that was happening: Snow and Florian were finally getting married! It's finally happening, since the challenge said that they had to have 7 of their kids as teens before they could do this. So, after waiting through so many pregnancies and so many birthdays, it's happening!

    I made them a crappy little wedding venue, planned everything, and sent them off!

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/2w6f3pl.jpg

    "I, Snow White, take you, Florian Prince, to be my husband. With this ring, I thee wed."

    http://oi68.tinypic.com/2nm2713.jpg

    "I, Florian Prince, take you, Snow White, to be my wife. With this ring, I thee wed."

    Honestly, I was just as excited as they were to see this wedding happen. It was about time!

    http://oi67.tinypic.com/2ij3l0n.jpg

    These guys were just so adorable! Finally married and together forever!

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/kamwj5.jpg

    Everyone cheered for them, even as the "mood lighting" from the full moon started suffusing everything. Of course I'd remember to plan the whole wedding and forget about the full moon. Welp, I just got braced for some other shenanigans.

    http://oi68.tinypic.com/jh5y6r.jpg

    Everything was going pretty well. Snow went to go cut the cake and people started getting stuck in doorways as usual.

    http://oi63.tinypic.com/n4wls2.jpg

    Also, look at that! Looks like Giselle is pregnant again!

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/o8z1au.jpg

    There was some romantic dancing...

    http://oi65.tinypic.com/dzxydt.jpg

    and some not so romantic zombies.

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/o09umv.jpg

    The night still ended with some romantic woo-hooing between Snow and Florian. They certainly deserved it!

    I decided to spend the next day celebrating even more birthdays. Beatrice and Suzanne had to become adults, after all!

    http://oi67.tinypic.com/2aj0rdk.jpg

    Beatrice went first, but despite everyone standing around her supposedly celebrating her birthday, few people were actually thinking about her.

    http://oi65.tinypic.com/2q32is8.jpg

    And here, everybody, is adult Beatrice!

    http://oi63.tinypic.com/1ficsk.jpg

    It was Suzanne's turn next. I had to move her cake to a table in the corner because the kitchen was completely swarmed by people.

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/11k88eg.jpg

    She makes a great adult!

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/25jxy5h.jpg

    Last birthday of the day! Yup, Cinderella is becoming a teen!

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/2r2aa6h.jpg

    And here she is as a teen! She's aging up so fast, her own chapters will be coming very soon!
  • Snow White

    Chapter 1.11

    Morning dawned soon after the party, and Cinderella's first action was to start cleaning up. She didn't have much time to spend doing that, though, as soon it was time for graduation.

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/2dcimtz.jpg

    Um, Suzanne, I don't think that's the hat you're supposed to be wearing for graduation... but... oh well.

    The family made their way to the graduation. Suzanne and Beatrice went up to the stage to receive their awards. Beatrice graduated with honors, and received the wonderful prize of "Most likely to be mediocre." She wasn't sure how to feel about that as she went to go sit back down. She had always hoped to be a great novelist, interacting with characters in stories rather than real people. Real people made her nervous. She'd prove them wrong and become a real novelist, though.

    Suzanne was valedictorian, to my surprise, and she was also voted "Most artistic." OK. That was better, and she was more pleased with her awards. She gave a speech (I'm not sure how the speech was since I was forced to wait outside), but hopefully it was a good one.

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/16h6r6a.jpg

    "Can you believe it, Beatrice? We finally graduated! Isn't it awesome?"

    "I guess. Can we go home now?"

    http://oi65.tinypic.com/ridjb4.jpg

    Literally Beatrice's first actions returning home were to sit at the computer and start working on her novel. She couldn't wait to prove her school wrong. She'd write a bestseller if it was the last thing she did.

    Suzanne had a different idea in mind, and she made a phone call and invited a certain someone over... someone who'd also recently become an adult.

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/2h55rpe.jpg

    Yup, it was Don! She invited him over. She had something to ask him, but first she had to take him on an amazing date.

    http://oi65.tinypic.com/mc5fll.jpg

    The amazing date involved taking him out to the local diner, and then gazing at the stars on the sidewalk right in front of it, the smell of frying oil and burger meat suffusing the air.

    "Actually, Don, I was wondering if I could talk to you for a second."

    "What about?"

    "Well, we've been together for a while, and now we're adults, right?"

    "Well, yeah."

    "I think it's time to take another step, right?"

    "What step?"

    http://oi63.tinypic.com/35avkno.jpg

    "Don, will you marry me?"

    "Oh my goodness, Suzanne! This is so unexpected, but of course I'll marry you!"

    http://oi68.tinypic.com/119s8c8.jpg

    They kissed and said goodbye.

    The family was so thrilled to see that Suzanne was engaged. Snow and Florian especially couldn't stop talking about it.

    "Suzanne, of course we need to throw you a bachelorette!"

    "I definitely won't say no to that!"

    They headed to the local dance club.

    http://oi67.tinypic.com/2evrz1s.jpg

    "Barkeep! Drinks all around!"

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/jgoztd.jpg

    Look at Snow getting down!

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/28s0qcl.jpg

    Even shy Beatrice got into the party, and was splashing her sister with champagne. There were even male dancers showing up!

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/2mydk50.jpg

    Oh, Suzanne. Well, she was certainly having fun.

    http://oi67.tinypic.com/nzm62t.jpg

    Everyone might have been hungover the next morning, but the wedding was absolutely beautiful.

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/dejav.jpg

    Everyone was so moved by the wedding. There were tears all around.

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/osfic6.jpg

    Look at them cutting the cake!

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/24yzo8j.jpg

    Suzanne and Don knew that they were the happiest they'd ever been, and there was only one more step to take.

    "Suzanne, now that we're married, could you move in with me?"

    It wasn't hard for Suzanne to decide. There were too many people in her house and she really needed to get out.

    "Of course! Can Beatrice come too?"

    "Um, I guess?"

    And so the day ended with everyone moving out.

    http://oi68.tinypic.com/1z3awrl.jpg

    "Florian, I think we've done really well," Snow told him that night.

    "Yes, Snow. We've raised some marvelous children."

    Now, I'm officially moving on to Cinderella's chapters! Snow's chapters are over, but Cinderella's are just starting. Can't wait!
  • It's official, guys! I'm on generation 2: Cinderella. Below are the rules for this generation, taken from the challenge rules here.

    Generation 2: Cinderella "A dream is a wish your heart makes, when you're fast asleep"
    Although you had six brothers and sisters, you always did the cooking and cleaning. Yet, somehow you loved it, as it transported you away from your chaotic home life. When Cinderella becomes a teenager, this story begins.
    - Must have 'Neat' and 'Natural Cook' traits
    - Must clean the house everyday and cook every meal
    - Must reach at least level 8 cooking before YA
    - May not marry until mother dies (This does not have to be of old age, but it may not be cheated)
    - Have a maximum of 3 children
  • Cinderella

    Chapter 2.1

    http://oi68.tinypic.com/245bu3c.jpg

    One day, Cinderella and her family were calmly watching TV. It was cold and rainy outside, and they were enjoying the warmth and joy of each other's company.

    http://oi65.tinypic.com/2s7tc0j.jpg

    Outside, in the rain, a poor soul wandered, in search of a family. He spotted a door, and hoped that perhaps those inside would be able to at leat spare a morsel for him.

    http://oi65.tinypic.com/2wevu6e.jpg

    Suddenly, Cinderella heard a sound outside, and she stood up. "Mother, did you hear something outside?"

    "What?" Snow's old age had resulted in losing some of her hearing.

    "Nothing, I'll go check."

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/295sfgi.jpg

    Cinderella opened the front door to see what had caused the noise she'd heard. Outside, she found a dog, looking sad and cold.

    "Oh, you poor boy! Are you all right? You must be hungry!"

    Cinderella's heart was broken. She couldn't imagine being all alone in the world. She needed to help this dog. He seemed sweet and kind, and he needed a home.

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/6nqsyr.jpg

    "Dad! There's a dog outside! Can we keep him, please? I don't think he has a home!"

    "Oh, all right, Cinderella, but only on the condition that you feed him and train him and take care of him."

    "Thanks, Dad!" Cinderella hugged Florian tightly before letting the dog in.

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/30ngqrp.jpg

    "I think I'll call you Bruno," Cinderella said as she brushed his fur.

    http://oi67.tinypic.com/116ltlg.jpg

    It was about then that Damian stood up and walked over to the corner. "Wait, guys, I feel funny. I think something is happening!"

    Something was indeed happening. He was aging up, and he moved out so quickly that I didn't even take a picture of him as a young adult.

    http://oi68.tinypic.com/6ifp8k.jpg

    That night, someone got into the house while everybody was sleeping.

    http://oi68.tinypic.com/28amjdh.jpg

    I'm sad to say that Bruno did nothing to stop the thief, but luckily the police soon arrived and took them away.

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/2mdghv7.jpg

    All too soon it was someone else's birthday: Cinderella's!

    And, I'm sad to say I officially failed at one of the challenge goals here. I couldn't get her to 8 points cooking; I only managed 7 1/2. So close! Still gonna go on.

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/2usfiqf.jpg

    Cinderella got to go to graduation, where she was not only valedictiorian, but she also was awarded: Most Likely to Get Married. LOL, they weren't wrong.

    The family celebrated the graduation by going out to a meal, and Snow and Florian were both thrilled that all their children had grown up and graduated. They were so proud of all they'd accomplished, and all the children they'd raised.

    http://oi68.tinypic.com/29du8oo.jpg

    It was too bad that pride and joy couldn't keep the inevitable from happening, unfortunately. Snow felt a little "off" when she got home.

    http://oi63.tinypic.com/2m7u4hh.jpg

    Cinderella and Florian sobbed as the Grim Reaper showed up to take Snow. Snow, however, accepted her death gracefully. She had accomplished all she had to set out to do in her life, and she was happy at all she'd achieved.

    Florian, especially, was devastated.

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/2ajo7o.jpg

    That night, as he slept, all he could dream of was Snow, and sadness filled every dream he had.

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/8ye4k8.jpg

    Bruno, as if sensing Florian's sadness, made sure to keep him company. (Bruno did this all by himself, and, honestly, I was so moved by it!)

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/wtvnk7.jpg

    Cinderella and Florian weren't the only ones needing comfort, though. They had to tell all the others. Cinderella planned a funeral for that very day, and all of Snow's children showed up, along with some of their own children. Had Snow waited only a day or two, she would have achieved her goal of getting 10 grandchildren, actually.

    http://oi65.tinypic.com/fnfkbb.jpg

    Florian found comfort in his children. Cinderella, however, noticed someone there who she didn't know.

    http://oi65.tinypic.com/vxdkkm.jpg

    "Excuse me, sir, how did you know my mother, Snow?"

    "Oh, hi. I'm Henri Charming. I didn't actually know her personally, but my father did. I believe they were friends before she moved here."

    "Oh, nice to meet you. I'm Cinderella."

    Both of them talked and seemed to get along quite well, even in the somber festivities.

    http://oi68.tinypic.com/msi2l1.jpg

    That night, once the funeral was over, Cinderella and Florian sat down for a quiet dinner. Cinderella realized that she and her father were all alone now, and she would have to take care of him, as well as Bruno. She needed a job, she thought.

    The next day, Cinderella headed out in search of a job. She didn't know exactly what she wanted to do with her life, so she didn't know what kind of job she wanted to have.

    While she was out walking, she noticed someone standing outside City Hall, protesting something.

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/2im5jkj.jpg

    "Henri, what are you doing here?"

    "Protesting to save the llama. You?"

    "Looking for a job."

    They chatted a while longer. Cinderella definitely considered him a friend by now, but she also thought he was very attractive.

    "We'll have to hang out sometime," she said, before leaving.

    http://oi63.tinypic.com/2ns76t2.jpg

    Upon arriving home, she was met with another terrible sight.

    "Dad!"

    There was nothing to do. He was gone. Cinderella was all alone.
  • I've never followed a Disney challenge, but this is very cute! I like the simplicity of your reporting and story-telling; it was fun to read about your gameplay so far. I hope you keep up with the challenge and post updates here :smile:
  • Cinderella

    Chapter 2.2

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/29f47rs.jpg

    Cinderella woke the next morning, and, for a blissful moment, she forgot about everything she'd recently experienced. But then, it all came back to her in a horrible rush. Her parents were gone, and she was all alone.

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/qpkwgj.jpg

    "I guess it's just you and me now, Bruno," she told her dog as she pet him. It was going to be lonely for a while, she thought

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/14eaxiw.jpg

    Other problems soon surfaced in the form of bills. Lots of them. That only meant one thing: "I think I need a job," Cinderella said as she sorted through the papers. They wouldn't pay themselves, and money hadn't grown on trees since the family's money tree had died a while ago.

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/2usfm9x.jpg

    Cinderella pondered what kind of job she wanted that whole day, not noticing the strange visitors she was getting that night. Her parents were no doubt worried about her, although the snowman they left her was the opposite of comforting.

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/e5qptl.jpg

    See? Kind of terrible. Oh well. Cindy didn't actually see it, since she was heading out in search of a job.

    http://oi67.tinypic.com/vqjxvd.jpg

    She found one as a receptionist at the salon, and she figured it would be a good job to have temporarily, especially since she didn't really know what she wanted to dedicate her life to.

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/108d9a9.jpg

    When she got home, she was so excited about her new job that she placed a call to her new friend: Henri. He came over, and romance was soon in the air.

    "I'm so proud of you, Cindy. You've had such a tough time, but you're doing great," Henri told her.

    Cinderella only responded in a kiss, which led to something more.

    http://oi67.tinypic.com/10r08wp.jpg

    The couple decided to turn up the heat in the middle of the bitter cold, and they must have had a good time and heated it up quite nicely, especially since they stayed there till morning.

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/rleviv.jpg

    It was then that Cinderella decided to ask Henri a question that had been on her mind for a while.

    "Henri, would you marry me?"

    "I never thought you'd ask," he responded, admiring the new ring on his finger. Hey, men can enjoy bling too, right?

    http://oi63.tinypic.com/211a0bo.jpg

    To celebrate their engagement, the couple had a gift-giving party, which wasn't necessarily traditional, but it was a great way to get lots of presents. Their presents included several art easels and a coffee maker, but nothing more interesting.

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/2hxp191.jpg

    And the next day they decided to celebrate the season by going ice skating. They were ridiculously cute as they skated together.

    http://oi64.tinypic.com/11bhh5u.jpg

    I think they may need some more practice, though.

    http://oi65.tinypic.com/2qb7wo0.jpg

    On their way home, Cinderella saw something weird. "Wait, Henri, pull over."

    He did, and as Cinderella got out of the car, her mouth fell open. It couldn't be. Unicorns didn't exist, did they?

    Apparently they did, since there was one right in front of her!

    She did little else other than watch the unicorn for the rest of the night, but it was obviously very real and very beautiful.

    It disappeared shortly before dawn, and Cinderella finally went home to bed. She planned to return soon and see if it had come back. For now, she had other more important things to worry about.

    http://oi67.tinypic.com/2hzpj52.jpg

    She was getting married!

    The wedding didn't exactly go as planned, though.

    http://oi63.tinypic.com/6zbwxg.jpg

    http://oi66.tinypic.com/2ywbqra.jpg

    Two of her sisters were making an effort to upstage her, apparently. One by showing up in a wedding dress and another by giving birth halfway through the ceremony and distracting most of the guests.

    http://oi68.tinypic.com/358pced.jpg

    It was still a beautiful ceremony. There were tears and joyful cheers from the audience.

    http://oi65.tinypic.com/2cekrck.jpg

    All four of them.

    http://oi65.tinypic.com/14y0jed.jpg

    The reception was beautiful too, and everyone had a great time.

    http://oi65.tinypic.com/vs2lo0.jpg

    And the couple ended the night once more in their little igloo. I don't know why they ignored the bed, but oh well. They still had a great wedding day, and I'm sure that as Cinderella fell asleep, she was thrilled to be rebuilding her family, little by little.
