In anticipation of the new Royalty and Legacy pack, I thought it would be fun to share screenshots and stories of Sims in our games who are destined for the throne or royal households. I've seen comments from several simmers talking about some of their gameplay and households who already fit this pack, and their plans for using it, and I'd love to see more.
So share your nobility, commoners, peasants, villains and ideas here, and we can inspire each other with tales both young and old, of scandal, fantasy, destiny and fate. ๐ธ๐๐ท๐บโ๏ธ
I'm excited for the new pack. My current save started when my fairy Sim married mermaid Paka'a Uha from Sulani and thus began a legacy of fairies and mermaids populating various worlds through their descendants. Paka'a lived a good long life and earned the ability to rebirth, so he is currently an infant in the Kealoha family in Sulani. I'm thinking his destiny is to be the true ruler of Sulani. And since my original fairy Sim has been taking the potion of youth to remain a young adult, maybe she can be his queen when they meet up once again. Maybe they can rule over Innisgreen as well (where my fairy still lives). ๐งโโ๏ธ๐งMight be some fun drama when Paka'a tries to return to his old family while still part of a large new family.
Ooh, I love a good fantasy tale! Fairies and Mermaids getting together reminds me of that old saying, something like, "A fish and a bird can fall in love, but where will they build a home?" Well, I think you've answered it...Innisgreen! Very lucky the magical pond is there.
I love how in your story the Fairy is practically immortal and the Mermaid is being reborn with a destiny to reunite with his past love and rule together. ๐
Callum is the lost prince of Ondarion, who lost his family and has now pledged himself to helping the Thebes, after they saved his life. Little does he know that he's a pawn in a much bigger game.
Daryl is a witch and heir to two occult royal lines, using magic to stir up trouble across the land. He's vying for Ondarion's throne mostly for fun, and because Callum has become his fierce rival. But when he finds out that the Thebes are not what they seem, he grows determined to save Callum and Angelique.
Angelique is Cordelia Thebe's daughter, born from an affair. Callum wants to marry her to not only get the Thebes the crown, but to secure her safety should the secret get out. When she starts investigating the royal families, she finds herself in her own web of lies that connect her to the Capp family.
Princess Maria Catalina da Souza Valentina de Azul de la Rou da Silva Romanza, or Catalina Valentina for short, is the princess of Tartosa. Weddings have become unpopular due to sims' inabilities to follow orders, leading to her nation's wedding-based economy falling on hard times. She's determined to play the game of thrones and secure a rich king or queen to help her country. But despite being a stranger in a strange land, she's got an advantage over most: she's a werewolf, and she's willing to destroy whatever and whoever she needs for the sake of her people.
So much juicy drama and potential scandal! I love the character depth you've created with these Sims, and their background stories. I haven't really thought about how a Werewolf could fit into nobility but I really like the direction you went with it. May Princess Maria Catalina da Souza Valentina de Azul de la Rou da Silva Romanza prevail! (Absolutely love that name, lol)
These are my vampires of Forgotten Hollow. For a while they have been considered the Vampire Council of Sim Nation. As you can see, Bella Goth is among them. Long ago, Vlad took the Vatores and Dracula to the Goth home to abduct Bella and embraced her into the vampire world. She is miserably living with Vlad, struggling with her condition. Vlad has always intended to make her "queen", to influence both the mortal and vampire world under his control.
The Vatores have been compliant and supportive of Vlad, especially Lilith, who believes vampires need a leader, and they have both befriended Bella, but for different reasons. Lilith believes Bella needs a friendly face among the vampires, someone to teach her the ways and help her embrace her new life, but Caleb, who is known to be sulky about the vampire business and a "vegetarian" to avoid human plasma, feels sorry for Bella, and is quietly appealing to her humanity.
Bella, meanwhile, tried to challenge Vlad to win her freedom back, and failed. Being honorable, she had agreed that if she lost, she would willingly live in his mansion and accept her new fate, so she has held to her word thus far. But once she started to know Caleb and see his alternative lifestyle and unconventional attitude, she has been secretly plotting a way to get Caleb to help her return to her family.
Dracula, however, creates another problem. He is used to being a ruler and taking what he wants. But Vlad, being more powerful and much older, with the support of the Vatores (and some others from different towns,) has kept him in check. But Dracula has three loyal Brides who have been with him for a long time and they can be a formidable coven. Always one to plan ahead, Dracula decided he wanted a son - an heir and powerful connection to the modern world, to mold in his image, follow in his footsteps so that they would become too powerful to defeat.
(The offspring of vampires in my game are revered because they are quick learners and mingle with mortals enough to integrate into both worlds, creating powerful alliances and understanding of new technology while the aging vampires have a tendency to be "traditionalists" and fade into obsoletion.)
As fate would have it, Dracula's Brides have all given him "only" daughters. Old (and outdated) tradition puts slightly more value on a son. But Dracula has been preparing his first born, Carmilla, while planning to still one day have a son. What he doesn't realize is that her fraternal twin sister, Claudia, is already a force and wild card. Claudia doesn't like her father much... or even her mother... or general authority for that matter, since she was a defiant toddler. Her loyalty is to her sister alone, and she intends to see Carmilla recognized as the rightful heir and next vampire monarch. And she will use the other girls if she must, to see it through.
But something unexpected has happened. Bella gave birth to a son. (Somehow Neighborhood Stories made Bella pregnant, even though I usually keep it off, so I decided to run with it.) It would seem that before her kidnapping, she and Mortimer had been romantic. Vlad supplied Bella with everything she needed to keep her from running away. Apparently, Vlad is not the tyrant one expects and is willing to do whatever it takes to keep Bella in his clutches. Perhaps he is wiser than anyone realized. Perhaps he has some other unknown agenda...
Despite trying to keep the birth quiet, whispers of the boy's existence has reached Dracula, who is enraged that Vlad's queen should produce a male heir. He doesn't yet know that the child is Mortimer's, or even worse...that he is human, not vampire.
Where the story goes from here, we shall have to wait and see.
Mine is not fancy or mythical, Geoffrey Landgraab divorced Nancy, married Babs L'Amour, their first born, Georgia here , will marry a prince one pretty day. That's about it ๐

Oh! And btw, when I'm ready for Royalty & Legacy to come next month, I'll give 8 swords for each 8 good and evil British knight guardians.
Mine isn't really mythical either, and honestly I don't how Laura Starr and her two housemates will fit into Royalty & Legacy (if I decide to get the expansion pack).
To make things a little bit interesting.... One of Laura's housemates, Yusei (he's the one with the black hair), is single, but he has an adopted daughter, Mollie Sutton (child), and two illegitimate daughters, Ella Hoffmann (infant) and Tatum Alcala (newborn).
Wow, that's quite a family lineage! I love how there are so many different cousins in various regions and I love the sprinkle of fairytale in there. Stygia is an awesome name for a Unicorn. ๐
