Seventeen & Maldusk: A Supernatural Soap Opera

Glad you enjoyed the pictures. With the silent chapters it's more about setting things up for the future than it is about the plot right now.

The mystery lady can be very hard to spot sometimes! :smile:

Reuben shares your feelings about Detective Shelton, especially since she is interrogating him. But she is investigating every lead to try and find Tre. He has already been missing for three days.

I was very busy the day I responded to your comment. So here's a little more now that I have some time.

That penthouse is pretty crazy! :joy:

The owner has some tight security behind the scenes. She has both a stronghold (vault), and an escape route (helicopter). So, is she paranoid, or does she have real enemies? :wink:

It's actually one of my favorite builds in this story. Part of it is copied and modified from the Alto Apartments lot in Uptown. I copied each room from the apartment lot and reassembled them on the penthouse lot so I could add to the design. The original apartment rooms make up about one quarter of the final penthouse building, and the rest I added. I did mess around with the original decor a little too.

I love secret passageways that lead to some weird surprises, so I couldn't resist that sprite pond down in the vault. I've often done stuff like that in builds meant for vampires because I figure the vampires who can't go out in daylight probably want a place where they can feel like they are outside in the sunshine without being in danger. In a different save-game story, I built a whole vampire spa around the idea of making the indoor space feel like outdoor space, so the vampires that go there can enjoy a "beach-like" setting without burning up.

So my ultra-wealthy vampire in this story also gets an indoor pond. :smile: There's even a "sun" in that blue sky. Maybe I should get some shots of her chilling on a lounge chair down there.
