For fans, this is a great opportunity to roleplay as a Time Lord. For non-fans, this is a challenge that allows you to use most of the available traits on one Sim who will change appearance yet keep their skills, reward traits, relationships and aspiration points.Time Lords are a time-traveling race in the Doctor Who universe (click here to learn more). When they are mortally wounded or in the brink of death, a Time Lord can “regenerate” to cheat death.There are three gameplay types for the challenge, and they are as follows: CASUAL: sim lifespan is set to NormalHEARTACHE: sim lifespan is set to Short, but your Time Lord ages as Normal"I DON'T WANT TO GO": sim lifespan can be anything; your Time Lord does not age, and they regenerate based on your own criteria.---To enhance your challenge, click here for the ROLEPLAYING GUIDE.---The following are Tracking Sheets for the Incarnations:CHALLENGE TRACKING SHEET: Where you hand-pick or randomize traits for each incarnation.PATH OF THE DOCTOR: Where you follow The Doctor's incarnation from 1st to 12th (including War Doctor)http://i.imgur.com/WnTmlyk.jpg

OH MY GOODNESS!!!!! What a fantastic idea!!! <3 I'm a huge DW fan and this seems so freakin' interesting! If I hadn't already started my neighborhood story, I'd TOTALLY work on this. I hope others will be interested. I'm so bummed that I can't do it (two other stories and couldn't handle a 3rd one). What are your rules for cheating? Obviously no age cheating as it's vital to the challenge. I assume no skill cheating either. But, what about motherlode, making sims happy (mailbox), and other things?If I had decided to play, I'd create Donna to be his first companion. <3 She'd be Dr Donna. Hehe

DUUUUUUDEEEE THIS CHALLENGE WAS PRACTICALLY MADE FOR ME *Points to avatar and signature*

HeheI'm still working on the rules, but so far no cheating whatsover except for cas.fulleditmode. However, you can take these as guidelines; you can "cheat" to craft a narrative out of it.http://i.imgur.com/rosLdn2.gif

Oh, David Tennant!! - *swoons*OH, and I figured, but I just thought I'd ask in case others will be interested as well. :D

Hehe, doctor who fan here! *waves*This challenge looks so fun!

How do you keep track of the number of whims completed? Is there something in the sim stats or do you have to keep count on your own?

There is a stat called Total Whims Completed under the Goals section.

Hey everyone, let me know if you are trying out this challenge and feel free to drop some links, screenshots and stories. I'm at my second playtest right now and will share some stories once I'm done with it.

I also changed the narrative into this:

The planet Gallifrey, the beautiful world that you have lived and breathed in, is being destroyed. As the world crumbles and disintegrates around you, a blinding light whisks you away. You wake up in a strange land, in a different time, in an unknown epoch. This new world is unusually bright and obviously pixelized.

No need to know about DW. The challenge can be independent of DW. You can tell a story of a Time Lord getting his memories wiped and ignorant of what happens to The Doctor.

And since it is in The Sims, this Time Lord can do whatever he or she or it wants. Think of them as aliens that just so happens to change personalities when their time come, sort of Jekyll and Hyde with ten more other personalities.

My current playtest is ignoring DW lore except for the regeneration stuff.

I've been playing this since day 1 when you posted it on Reddit (or maybe it was day 2). This has been my favorite challenge EVER. I'm on my 2nd Time Lord. I've finished 1 aspiration for each regeneration so far and then I realized that maybe we're supposed to finish every aspiration in each category?

For example my first aspiration was Athletic, there is just Bodybuilder under that.

I just finished Painter Extraordinaire under Creativity. Is that fine or do I have to do Bestselling Author and Musical Genius as well?

I had to end my first Time Lord prematurely. If you want to roleplay as an Elder, you can color their hair white and add some >creases under Skin Details.

Ah yes, I discovered that you updated your rules with that with my Sim's last ~12 hours left as Adult. I had just spent all my reward points so I had to power through a ton of whims in order to buy a youth potion lol I also had to move them from a 20x30 lot to 50x50 because I didn't see that rule before.

So yeah. This is the funnest challenge I've ever done, thanks for posting it! I'll be hitting my third regeneration soon!
