This is the story of Callisto, my supersim who completes all aspirations and explores what the game has to offer. I started her story quite a while ago but so far I only shared bits and pieces. Here it is all in one place. I would like to say a big thank you to @mcrudd whose post about her aspirations challenge was the starting point for this journey.
This story is more than just an aspiration challenge. My supersim should be one of the most complete sims possible. Therefor I wanted her to be born in game with some hereditary traits, like a strong bloodline and the sulani mana trait. All without cheats of course. The story starts years before Callisto is born.
Meet Perseus Ember and Luna Mandrake.

Perseus might look familiar. He is a magical clone of the famous Morgyn Ember. Perseus grew tired of always living in the shadow of Morgyn and decided to leave the magical community. He settled down with Luna to live a mundane life far away from the magic realm. He doens't practice any magic at all but still has magic spellcaster blood running through his veins to start a magic bloodline. Luna is a non-magical sim who didn't even know spellcasters exist.
The plan was for both of them to have a little spellcaster girl. They moved to a lot with a ley line trait and used every trick tin the book (game) to increase chances of twins. Their wish was granted: they had two little lovely boys. Perseus and Luna loved their litttle boys but tried again to get a girl as well. To everyones surprise they had another sets of twins: a little boy and a girl. They were loving parents to Quill, Griffin, Celeste and Raven. I played all of them through toddlerhood for the top notch toddler. Then I took a time lapse to Celeste's early adult life...
Meet Tobias Polaris and Leinani Paewai

Tobias was ready to start building up his life when he encountered a strange event with Sulani spirits visiting his home in Evergreen Harbour. (With the right lot trait and trait, this is possible everywhere). He fell in love with Leinani dispite her evil nature. He managed to convince her to move in. After a lot of searching both found the magical well and Leinani wished for life. She received a plat of ambrosia and joined the living. Not long after both of them were blessed with a son called Regulus.

This is the family tree (with some spoilers for the next generation as well)
Celeste and Regulus both grew up in a loving home. Both earned the top notch toddler trait. They met at university and decided to share an apartment in Everygreen Harbour and commuted to university while holding a job to earn a little bit of money as well. While living together as room mates, they fell in love and maried even before graduation. https://i.imgur.com/IrsoSYs.png Celeste is already showing the soon to come off spring. Their first child Callisto was born while they still lived in Everygreen Harbour. https://i.imgur.com/Tpjiouj.png
Soon after graduation they moved to Mt. Komorebi and lived in the Wakaba district while raising their little girl Callisto https://i.imgur.com/vepgIvw.png
Just like her parents Callisto earned the top notch toddler and took a early start on earning the character values from the parenthood pack.
Callisto liked living in Mt Komorebi and greatly enjoyed living there. She was a very active child who tried to explore everything she could.
https://i.imgur.com/KqFFVYg.png 1. Artistic Prodigy. She started by exploring her creative side and learning to play the violin, which she still loves to this day. Callie was able to reach level ten in creativity sooner than I thought she would. She has unlocked the violin skill and is already level 2 on that one.

At the time we only had 4 child aspirations, growing together wasn't released yet.
After so much time as a child working on aspirations, Callisto just had to spend some time as a teen working on aspirations. I did not have high school years available at the time so she completed some of the regular aspirations that had no requirement to grow up or get a job.
https://i.imgur.com/R6Gon2z.png 01. Mt. Komorebi Sightseer. As a Mt Komorebi local (she did grow up there) this was an obvious first step. This was a relatively easy aspiration, great to warm up a bit. The Yamachan mascot was around for a picture when needed. Catching a forest spirit was the trickiest part as it needs a bit of luck. Here teen Callisto is relaxing in the hot spring with her mother.
https://i.imgur.com/1ORzRsQ.png 02. Chief of Mischief. This aspiration was one I don't like and wanted to get out of the way as quickly as possible. None of my sims ever used the voodoo doll before. It's just not my playstyle. Later on Callisto got a 'dislikes mischief' as a way to prevent autonomous mischievous actions.
https://i.imgur.com/drXwp5M.png 03. Grilled cheese. The grilled cheese aspirations sounded like fun. It turned out more challenging than I expected. Especially eating a grilled cheese in space and talking to the grim reaper about grilled cheese were hard to achieve.
Callisto got a lovely elderly lady living in her house for a short while so the grim reaper had someone to come for.
https://i.imgur.com/GcWbIF2.png 04. Serial Romantic. This might be the aspiration I dreaded the most. Callisto needed several boyfriends. So she started going out with the first boy she liked: Kiyoshi. I felt so sorry when she had to go for boyfriend number 2. A temporary household fresh from the gallery with a football team was the answer. Callisto dated them all and once the aspirations was complete, they were deleted from the game. She then took Kiyoshi on a second date to the Van Haunt Estate where they made up and stayed a couple ever since.
Meanwhile Callisto also found some time to spend with her friends as well.
@Ellupelluellu starting with the grandparents made a very slow start. I usually start a new game in a rags to riches style with a sims straight out of CAS. The fact that she as ancestors makes her special and different from my other sims.
@blueybluesky Thank you. The Sulanie Manatrait is very useful. I have rarely used it to summon lava bombs but the option to instantly upgrade a plant one level is extremely useful. Even with the cooldown, it can help to make a plant perfect over time.
Callisto's first steps into adulthood brought her to the aspirations I was dreading most: the vampire ones and the Public Enemies.
In order to start the vampire aspirations she first had to become a vampire herself. So as a young adult she settled in Forgotton Hollow and with a few days she met Elle DeVampiro . The noble vampires are created by maxis and are added to my custom starter save. Sorry Vlad, but Elle has a bit more prestige when it comes to being evil.
https://i.imgur.com/SQqAf9p.png 05. Vampire Family. As a vampire Callisto soon started her own vampire family. Because I couldn't choose which sims to sacrifice, I added a brand new household to my save. Their names might sound familiar: Fred "Freddie" Jones, Velma Dinkley, Daphne Blake, "Shaggy" and Scooby-Doo. Who better to investigate in forgotton hollow than those five. In the end they were all turned into vampires, well not Scooby-Doo as he is a dog. Here you see Callisto talking to her vampiric offspring Velma. This aspirations finished faster than expected. The perk to turn sims comes relatively low and the last tasks don't require the highest vampire rank
https://i.imgur.com/6abTjiC.png 06. Public enemy. I had hoped to finish this aspirations by witnessing a sims death, and take a screenshot of that scene. I had a brand new sim join Callisto's household. She turned him into a vampire and then both of them went for a warm sunny day on a Sulani beach. Callisto had a sunlight reversal cocktail to protect her and 'the victim' did not. However his death happened a bit too soon which meant Callisto still had to rank up to level 8 of the criminal career to achieve the aspirations.
https://i.imgur.com/fiVYHhu.png 07. Master Vampire. Surviving for 20 days sure takes a while but Callisto finally became a master vampire
https://i.imgur.com/FLxIyIU.png 08. Good Vampire. Being a good vampire is rather easy. Most of my sims are nice sims anyway so feeding on other sims rather the exception. Another tasks that takes many days (Don't drink without permission for 14 days in a row) makes this a long lasting aspirations as well.
https://i.imgur.com/8w8wEtv.png 09. Bestselling Author. So while she was waiting, and no longer employed as a criminal, Callisto became a celebrated author. She made quite some money with this career, enough make the next few weeks very easy moneywise. Here she is reading her latest bestseller: 'Who is the vampire hunter?'
