Four Immortal Sisters Updated Rules
Hi everyone! I know this isn’t one of the most popular challenges around, but it’s one of my personal favourites, and it has been since the ts3. I figured I would expand the rules, as the ts4 conversion hasn’t been updated since GTW, and to make some tweaks/ add levels of difficulty.
Credits go to the OG challenge creator tigger89 and Scklsy for the first conversion.
Please ask me any questions you might have, and let me know if I have forgotten anything! Or if you have some suggestions!
Update July 2022
Key changes:
Premise
The general idea of this challenge is that four "sisters" care for and teach skills to the children of the fire sister, while also sacrificing other sims to the cowplant so that they can be immortal and never age up.
That's a pretty broad sort of idea, so you can take it however you want! For your personal game, you could explain the reasoning as:
- The sisters are looking to weed out the bad/evil sims and raise well rounded sims to improve the next generations
- The sisters were once immortal, but did something wrong, and as punishment a higher power has made them complete this task. They sustain their immortality with the complaint, but once they finish they can go back to being properly immortal again
- The occult species the sisters are is dying out, and this is a last ditch effort to try and reinvigorate the species
Set Up
Household
While the name is the Four Immortal Sisters Challenge, the gender of your sims doesn’t really matter - I’ll just be using sister and she/her pronouns in the guide for convenience.
They must be young adults and siblings, but they can look however you wish. The fire sister must be able to become pregnant. However, each sim has a set list of traits to choose from.
Fire Sister: Her Aspiration is Serial Romantic. Her traits are Non-Commital and Hates Children, plus one from the following list: Music-lover, Outgoing, Self-Absorbed (Get Famous).
Water Sister: Her aspiration is Painter Extraordinaire. Her traits are Neat, Family-Oriented, plus one from the following list: Perfectionist, Creative, , Child of the Ocean ( Island Living).
Earth Sister: Her aspiration is Freelance Botanist. Her traits are Active, Loves the Outdoors and one from the following list: Self assured, Vegetarian, Animal Enthusiast (Cottage Living) or Green Fiend (Eco-Living).
Air Sister: Her aspiration is Best-selling author. Her traits are Genius, Bookworm, andone from the following list: Loner, Ambitious, Overachiever (Highschool Years) or Socially Awkward (Highschool Years).
Lot and Starting Funds
For the lot, you may build wherever you like (though larger lots are recommended), and you can spend however much you want decorating and building , including using cheats to get the money to do so. Though be warned the more lavish your home, the higher the bills.
You may build your home in any way you wish and decorate it however you wish. However, I recommend having a separate space for the kids near the water sister’s room so she can get to them quickly. I also recommend giving the fire sister her own bathroom and other amenities so she can stay as far away from the kids as possible, since she’ll become tense. Or don’t! That could promote some funny gameplay.
When you start to actually play you cannot have more than 10000 simoleons. And make sure that the lifespan is set to normal
General Rules
The game lifespan is set to normal.
The fire, air and earth sister should prioritize picking up the “Mentor” reward trait so they can properly guide teenage sims.
All reward traits are fair game minus the potion of youth.
Fire:
This is the only sister allowed to leave the lot whenever and wherever she wants. She is responsible for finding and seducing townies to bring back and feed to the cowplant. However, she must try for a baby with each sims she brings back if there is an open slot in your household.
She can become the girlfriend of the sims she seduces, but she may not ever be married.
The fire sister wants nothing to do with the kids she bears. She doesn’t help raise her kids from baby to child. She can mentor them in musical instruments once they become a teen.
Permitted skills: Mixology, any musical instrument, Charisma, Comedy, Mischief, Juice Fizzing, Media Production, Dancing.
Water:
This sister takes care of all the young children, as well as the daily tasks of the home. Changing diapers, feeding, potty training, thats all her. She also can help the air sister in mentoring the toddlers in their skills if she has the time. She also does the cooking and fixes any objects that break down.
Permitted skills: Cooking, Handiness, Painting, Parenting, Baking, Cross-stitching, Knitting.
Air:
This sister assists in mentoring the toddlers in skill and helping kids and teens with their homework. She also mentors teens in the logic skill. She is also the main breadwinner and the only sister able to hold a full-time job. She may take any day job except for any where its required you follow your sim to work.
Permitted Skills: Logic, Writing, Programming, Photography, Vampire Lore, Veterinarian, Research and Debate, Robotics and Fabrication.
The air sister may also learn any other skill through skill books alone.
Earth:
This sister may leave the lot to go to the local parks to fish and gather harvestables, from 12 pm to 9pm. You may sell what you find or use them to start your own garden to offset cooking costs.
She is the one responsible for finding and growing the cowplant, as well as eventually mentoring the teens in Fitness.
Permitted Skills: Gardening,Fitness, Fishing, Herbalism, Wellness, Flower Arrangement, Skiing.
