Caleb Vatore

you're lucky he's the only one doing it in your game. When I've got autonomy turned on, everyone does those things.

Maybe delete him and go to a new save and get the new version and put it in your current save. Bam. He won't be like that anymore cuz every sim in a different save is different.

Poor Caleb. He's such a loveable goofball. Give him an exercise machine or a child and he'll be happy for hours.
Take him bowling however, and before you know it he's over at the bar, chatting someone up or watching tv.
He's got the Materialistic trait, so he likes anything new or shiny.Like any child, he can try one's patience. But he's got a heart as big as all outdoors (he can stand still while fishing) and that's what makes him worth the aggrivation.

He certainly is an oddball. (Btw, none of his traits are available to kids...)

He is an ambitious and materialistic foodie - I cured him of vampirism, so that the latter can be of use to him. I've played with him as my Sim's spouse since forever and I've had many saved games with him as well, but he doesn't really change from game to game. After an in-game week or so, his compulsive behaviors set in. Always.

Ambitious and materialistic are fine, but the foodie part just comes off as a total bother.

Caleb is all over the place, constantly. I always incorporate him in the households I'm playing, either as a spouse or a roomie. He absolutely LOVE painting. When he's done with something I told him to do, if I'm not quick enough, he will race to the nearest easel. I don't mind, he creates new things he can admire, so keeps him happy. And he's making tons of money with it too, because he maxes out his skill very quick (large, abstract masterpieces are apparently the huge sellers).

I don't really see him making drinks that much, and I'll allow all my sims to do it (grabbing water is no issue in my houses, I never ever have sinks in any of them) They'll either drink them or I put them in the fridge for later. All my played houses have fully fitted home gyms, so they are absolutely going to work all those calories off :) Same with food, really. In my current save, he's just entered the culinary career for the first time (usually I put him in painter). This will be interesting.

I find Caleb to be an easy sim to care for, and he's one of my top 5 premade sims to play.

I love playing Caleb and I have him in nearly all my saves. But in my game he is more like a formal, serious and noble person in mt save. Yes he can do unexpected thing occasionally but overall he is easy to take care of. He plays chess mentors his children builds up his powers and skills without causing me trouble. He is so calm in my game and I love to see this behaviour on him. Maybe that's because I gave him the dampened emotions power. But I try to avoid making him angry, he can be such trouble when he is pissed off. He ended up killing one of my sims autonomusly due to the extreme violence mod. However, I love him and my save can't be complete without him. He is my top premade of all time. :heart:

When I first started playing TS4 last year, I had Vampires and Get To Work. I sent my sim, Bucky Barnes, to work at the Science lab, and Caleb was one of his coworkers and became one of his BFFs. When Bucky reached the point in his career where he had to clone himself, his clone got Caleb to turn him into a vampire. Playing with the three of them was delightful.

LOL I totally do. In this save, Steve and Bucky are a couple. Bucky is a scientist and Steve is in the Artist career. Because Bucky is a scientist (because my version of Bucky is fascinated by science and technology), he got abducted by aliens, and had an alien baby, which Steve also adopted. Bucky's clone is named James Barnes, and he is a relatively friendly vampire who ended up living with Natasha Romanov. James joined the scientist career also, and when he was cloned, his clone came out *wrong* and was an evil vampire that the game auto-named Rodrigo. Rodrigo has dark eyes, unlike Bucky and James, whose eyes are blue. It has been very entertaining, creating a world with all these different versions of Bucky running around. Every one of the adores Steve. :)

The only thing that annoys me about him is his guilty drinker trait. You're a VAMPIRE. Embrace it! (ha.. embrace..sorry.. vampyr stuff...) But yeah, I try to play him as a ripper (all the blood drinking), so that weakness is such a pain.

I love him though. He's so grumpy and sassy. I'm not sure I've ever seen him smile, because he's always making some grumpy/sarcastic expression in my pictures.

I've always thought that Caleb never really wanted to be a vampire and wants to remain as human as possible, which could be why he has the guilty drinker trait.

> Awesome! And this post got me thinking... why isn't there a Marvel Legacy Challenge out there yet?

Maybe there should be! This save has a large number of Marvel characters - Steve, Bucky, Nat, Peggy, (my shipping preferences are generally any combination of those four - though Stucky is the OTP of my heart) a bunch of characters from Agents of Shield (Daisy, May, Fitz & Simmons). I'm thinking of adding Gamora and Nebula in, also. I've never set up a challenge before. What do you think would be involved?
