What does this have to do with Batuu?


Jeez...

Connor Ren of the Knights of Ren and Lt. PL-600 of the First Order (or, to their respective superiors, fetch boy A and fetch boy B ) enjoy their meals together in-between missions:

"How, Connor? Just tell me... how are you doing that?!"

(More to come)

Here's a beautiful one:

The two sims in my banner are both force sensitive, albeit firmly in the thrall of the dark side due to their upbringing. I decided that the crystals they will find on Batuu will determine whether they are redeemable or not - red means no, green and blue mean yes and every other color staves off the decision. In the screenshot Connor just came out of his first lightsaber challenge with a saber Kylo lended to him (aka one I purchased with credits). The challenge gained him a blue crystal.

In-story this is Ki Adi Mundi's lightsaber that Connor won from the sim he dueled and it broke during the fight.

I’m getting closer to getting the second generation to Batuu. After saving my household and starting a new save, Obi-Wan and Leia lost their kyber crystals. I was able to get Obi-Wan a blue crystal again for his but I didn’t have another green one for Leia so she ended up with a purple one. Poe got purple, Rey got yellow, Padme got green and Ahsoka got white. Jade will save the other crystals up to add to whatever Ahsoka gets on her visit, as at least one in the next generation will need a red one ?.

The first generation is still having children. Luke hasn’t had any, Sienna had Alina and Landen with Akeem Landgraab, and Angelo with Gavin Richards (as Akeem didn’t exist in the new save). Sapphire has already has Cyrus with husband William Gunn and is now pregnant with a daughter.

The second generation is about to start having kids. Obi-Wan has got a local girl, Nawai Ngata, pregnant, while Leia has just married Han and is having a baby boy (I didn’t even have to cheat!) who will be named Ben. Poe has just moved out (I aged him up a day early since it was the weekend) and Rey has adopted a dog called Chewbacca ? that she will take with her when she leaves. She has four days to aging up, and the twins Padme and Ahsoka have seven. Rey and Ahsoka will be heading to Batuu, where Ahsoka will become a Galactic Smuggler. Rey has been challenging people to lightsaber duels every spare moment she can ?. She will probably get to do that a lot while her sister works in her aspiration.

Some fun I've had with the lightsabers and the zoom function:

Connor's mask gets sliced in two in a practice fight:

I made up a little story where Ki Adi Mundi's kyber crystal breaks in half and Connor and Daniel put one half each in lower powered lightsabers that they use for practise. At this point they still have to earn their red ones from Kylo.

Anyway, Daniel's combat style is "levitate lightsaber at opponent":

This picture is technically Connor dueling a challenger and him losing the weapon. In-story this is Connor dueling the man, while Daniel (out of camera) force-wrestles the weapon from his hand and directs it against him.

The game always spawns the same opponent for the lightsaber challenge, therefore I decided that this human is a curator/historian and their trainer.

R6-TV distracts the First Order... troopers, officers and (future) Supreme Leader.

Meanwhile inside the cargo hall my rebel sim and a scoundrel from the same household take turns trying to pick the lock at an equipment crate.

"Great Force Lightning, Lord Kylo!"
"Uh... thank you." (Did I do this?)

Ahsoka and Rey have just completed their trip to Batuu. Ahsoka completed the Galactic Privateer aspiration and gained level 5 Scoundrel ?. Rey just hung out and talked to the locals mostly since she couldn’t do much since she was pregnant. She did provide some distractions at times when Ahsoka had to venture into the First Order district, and then that job was taken over by Rogue, Aldir Phet, who joined the household and is likely to get married to Ahsoka. Ahsoka got escorted off the Resistance base after using up 7 dataspikes and getting zapped 7 times trying to get into the holotable... oops ?. But she made up for it by doing the Kessel Run on the Millenium Falcon in 13 parsecs!

Now they’re home again, Ahsoka and Aldir will move out into a Batuu home where Ahsoka will become an Interstellar Smuggler. Haven’t quite decided for Aldir yet. Rey will remain in the family home and raise her daughter (whose father is Father Winter. Their first date was at a clothing store ??).

Padme has moved out to live with her aunt Sapphire, uncle William and cousins Cyrus and Kylie. Poe had a daughter Krystle to Alex Moyer, who has now married Luke, Poe’s uncle. Luke already has a son, Seth. Obi-Wan has two children to different women, Kenobi and Siri. Leia and Han have Ben, and they’re expecting another boy soon. And second aunt, Sienna, has three children to two different fathers (mainly because the first father got left behind when I had to change saves), Alina, Landen and Angelo, and now has married the unedited version of her Sulani father, Paka’a Uha! Double oops ?.

So now Ahsoka and Aldir will have at least three kids, one of which will become the heir that will go to Batuu and join the First Order.

Question - if you have multiple people in a household on Batuu, can they do different aspirations while there, ie. one join the Resistance and one join the First Order?

You'll know this by now, but, yes, it's allowed. Sims can also defect by talking to the opposite faction leader. This will reset their reputation to zero.

I did something bad...
to reflect the flow of my story I replaced all the Disney npcs with my own sims. Of some I only edited their outfit in CAS, others got a full surgery via MCCC.

https://abload.de/img/26.01.21_00-11-169uk1c.png

Left sim:
Lt. Agnon is still the First Order district's leader, but in a series of recent skirmishes with the resistance he lost an eye.
I consider him unredeemable and the saga will end with his capture or maybe even death.

Right sim:
Captain Anderson is a veteran of the old rebel alliance who recently rejoined the resistance at Batuu. He has proven himself enough by now to become the new commander, allowing Vi Moradi to pursue other exploits.
Anderson is actually Vi Moradi, genderswapped and everything-else-too-swapped. The sim still has the SNPC_Vi - identifier hidden trait and therefore does all her interactions. I still have my original Captain Anderson for when I want to play him (just making sure to never have him in the same frame as Vi).

https://abload.de/img/26.01.21_00-17-13oukj8.png

Cole Anderson is Captain Anderson's long lost son, a Force user and redeemed dark sider (I showed him off under the alias of Connor in the previous screenshots). I swapped him in for Rey, using the same method as I did with his father. As a major franchise character Rey is better off doing her movie stuff elsewhere than lingering at Batuu.

In the screenshot Cole is dueling one of my other force sensitive sims, Simon O'Malley.

What brings us to the Kylo-replacement, Caroline Phillips, nee O'Malley:

https://abload.de/img/26.01.21_00-25-04tdklb.png

Caroline is Simon's (and the previously shown Daniel's) mother. She is a long-time supporter and major funder of the First Order, a distinguished entrepreneur, but recently snapped (long story).
Just like Rey, Kylo has business to attend elsewhere, therefore Caroline will perform all Kylo Ren interactions, but unlike him she is very low in the Knights of Ren as seen in that she only "wears" a painted on mask around her eyes. In-story she replaces Cole as Kylo's apprentice.

https://abload.de/img/26.01.21_00-27-39ymjzp.png

And finally with Hondo I was a little uninspired. He got into a First Order/Resistance crossfire and is recovering in a hospital and later in his private quarters. Meanwhile a droid runs the business. She doesn't even have a name yet and still goes by "Hondo".

Now as a teen, Anna is back..
https://i.imgur.com/vAIXQcY.png
https://i.imgur.com/PBu9VEM.png
Anna: "Hondo, I can do my own missions now! I really can!
Hondo:" You still are very young.. maybe when you grow up a bit?"
Anna: "Really??"
Hondo: "Maybe one game of sabbaac , we will see.. Your mom will go to a mission with Chewbacca in the meantime.."

Ooh, I like your replacements. After seeing this, I want to replace Rey and Kylo as well. My kylo replacement might have some resemblances to yours. ;) She looks awesome.
Hondo and Vi Moradi feel generic enough to stay because they are not shown in the movies.
