Share the traits of your current sim(s)!
I apologize if a forum like this has been made previously. If so, please disregard.
I've always been curious to see what traits simmers are choosing for their sims.
What are the traits?
Does the trait selection affect their everyday life?
Is there a reason why you chose those traits for them?
Do those traits have a backstory or background?
I'll share mine. My current sim is covered in tattoos, piercings, and wears a leather vest. He seems like the type to start trouble and be a ladies man, right?- except he's neither of those traits. His actual traits are Unflirty, commitment issues, Avant garde, shy, virtuoso, and ambitious.
He spends most of his day in his apartment, making paintings to pass the time, praticing his drumming, or playing with his two cats, so I'd say his traits affect his life moderately. Whenever he leaves the comfort of his apartment, he gets overwhelmed and wants to go home. He's also a 4 star celebrity, so it just adds to his shyness. Really the only time he leaves his home is when it's time for work- and he's level 10 of the Rock music branch-- which probably isn't suited for someone with his traits. Girls AND guys do ask him on dates, but he declines all of them. He never wants to settle down, just produce music.
I chose the traits because I had a pattern of making loud, rebellious sims, covered in tattoos. After a while, I got tired of making the same stereotypical "bad boy" sims, and wanted a change. So I chose all the traits that a "bad boy" sim wouldn't have, and I honestly enjoy it more. I've played with this sim the most out of any other sim I've made.
He does have a backstory though. He grew up with parents who constantly fought, and as a result, he's scared of falling in love. He has a passion for music and art, and spent all of his childhood and teenage years perfecting both. He moved to Bridgeport for better career opportunities, and joined the music industry. He quickly rose to the top because of his musical talent and quickly became a star as a YA, causing him to shy away from everyone else and enjoying the comfort of solitary.
I plan on making him master all musical instruments and all art-forms (photography, sculpting, inventing, street art, writing, painting, etc), just to prove to everyone that you don't need to "settle down" with a relationship to be happy. I also eventually plan on having him leave his job, as he keeps getting the wish to quit.
