The Nevis Legacy [Updated 11.06.21]
Hello!
Welcome to The Nevis Family Legacy. I've been a Simmer for many years, having started with the Sims 1 back in the day, and always wanted to complete a legacy challenge from start to finish but for various reasons, never managed. I've been unable to play the Sims 4 for a couple of years now, but I recently built a new PC and I can play again, so I have decided to start a brand new legacy challenge which I'm very excited about :) I love reading other peoples' legacies and stories, so figured I would make an attempt at sharing my own for the very first time. At the very least, come the end of the legacy, I'll have a place to look back on the entire challenge in a more cohesive and better-documented format than just my Sims 4 screenshots folder.

So, welcome to The Nevis Legacy! The name is taken from Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in the UK. It's located in Scotland, where I'm from, so I thought it would be a fitting choice.
The Nevis Legacy is a pretty standard legacy challenge. I'm following Pinstar's challenge rules, to an extent, though with a few changes. I also won't be calculating any points for this legacy, since I think it would ruin the fun of the story and gameplay for me.
Main rules
No money / game-breaking cheats will be used, but I will be using MCCC to improve gameplay.
This is primarily a legacy playthrough rather than a storytelling venture. I will be attempting to make it at least somewhat enjoyable to read, but we'll see how that goes. I hope you enjoy!

Main rules
- 10 generations (founder is generation 0, founder's children will be generation 1)
- Succession rules: heir can be any gender, and will mostly be picked on which Sim I want most to carry on the next generation
- Traits will be randomised for all children
- Spouses can only be Sims generated by the game, i.e. no gallery or custom-made Sims are allowed to marry into the family. This is mostly just to add some extra fun / challenge to the legacy
