Tell me about your best ever Sim and what made them special. Pics optional.

Can you provide an example of your own so i know where to start?All sims can be special and best ever at something, I'm just wondering what specifically you are looking for on your thread that works.I got several sims that are considered favorites over the others.i got some sims that show more potential than others.i got sims that are purely the best at being evil or mean or both.I got sims that are practically ancient in how long they lived and are the best at that, or the most special.You'll have to limit the scope a bit. :smile:

I had a sim about a year back named Rowan. She was a huge geek and became a tech guru who ran a startup. She had 5 kids and made enough money to move into one of the penthouses in san myshuno. I was so proud of her!! normally I don't get that far in gameplay unless I'm doing a challenge, and seeing her succeed and watching her kids grow up was so much fun! Fingers crossed I can find her save file on my external hard drive.

My best sim ever wasn't even a sim I made or controlled. He was a sim from Selvadorada. My house 02 heir from the drifter challenge went on vacation and met Juan. They fell in love and moved back to Willow Creek. In certain house challenges on the Drifter Challenge, you can only control your active sim (heir from the previous house). In house 02, I could only control Juan's wife, my sim, Antonia. But I spent more of my time just watching Juan and the craziness he got into. Come to find out, he was insane (it was called insane at the time). His favorite thing to do was run around in the buff. I've played insane sims often. But there was something special about Juan. He really seemed to have what a lot of sims lack, to me. And that was personality. He was a great dad, a loving husband. Everytime it rained, he would spend all day out side, without clothing, showering in the rain. But as he turned into an elder, he had decided that clothing was optional (and this was before that lot trait was a thing... LONG before). With his child-aged son sitting beside him on the couch, he'd just lounge around all day, in the buff. His son probably wasn't even sure what his fathers clothes even looked like, Juan was in the buff so often. The day he passed, he was without clothing, sitting on the couch downstairs. He got up from the couch, walked upstairs to his bedroom, spun into clothing, and passed away at the foot of his bed. Juan will always be my favorite sim. ETA: And since Juan, I now prefer my sims to marry an erratic sim, when I can find one, but none are my Juan. :(

I love when you meet a townie and they surprise you. Some of my best playthroughs have come from sims marrying townies and then getting to play with them.

My favorite Simmie showed up like 12 gens in and is now 7 gens back. His name was Rocky Costain. He was part of a family where I decided I’d name them all R names and dress everyone in fashionable black and red outfits ?? He was also the first Celeb Actor I made. It’s cool to see which of my current Sims are direct descendents.

Tell me about your best ever Sim.

I'll assume "Best ever" means your favorite? If so I have three from the same Legacy that I've been building for the last couple years now.
First up we have "Zelda Bailey"
Spoiler
The Heiress of Generation 11, Zelda Stark was just honestly, in my honest opinion, the best looking Sim that was born in my game. So naturally I favored her over her sisters. Then I had her marry Chadwick Bailey (Octavia and Thorne's second child)
https://i.imgur.com/WyEfHzo.png
Mostly used her as the "These clothes look kind of ugly, but I want to see if she could pull off the look" test subject. And yes, I think she did.
https://i.imgur.com/Wkpbz4A.png
And also she was my Sim that I used when Get Famous came out, so of course she became a famous actress.
https://i.imgur.com/WI6BKBC.png
AAAAND she got a backrup from The Grim Reaper! *Not pictured, Zelda's husband, who died in the shark pond.
https://i.imgur.com/fgRZj6y.png
But then she got eaten by the Mother Plant, because THAT'S when Strangerville came out!
https://i.imgur.com/lTOP6If.png

Then her son, Abraham Bailey.
Spoiler
Ah yes, Abraham. He tried to solve the Strangerville mystery.
https://i.imgur.com/GKxVuXP.png
To less than Stellar results. And yes, I bought the Vampire pack at that time too, so here's his Vampire wife.
https://i.imgur.com/FmhnJ4O.png
Also, he looked weirdly great in this Purple suit at his son's wedding.
https://i.imgur.com/72hql2k.png
So after his mother died, he teamed up with The Expendables to defeat the mother plant. Unfortunately, Bruce Willis was eaten and killed by the plant before Abraham, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone could defeat the plant.
https://i.imgur.com/jIGAUyf.png
So he would forever be remembered as Grand Marshal Abraham Bailey, Savior of Strangerville.
https://i.imgur.com/zzv2crs.png
Until a portal from hell just magically spawned in his son's penthouse engulfing Abraham in flames.
https://i.imgur.com/2hKznsU.png

Then Abraham's grandson, Bruce Bailey.
Spoiler
Yes, Bruce Bailey, as in he was named after the man who gave his life to save Strangerville, Bruce Willis.
https://i.imgur.com/22ECeOl.png
But then the mortal enemy of Bruce's Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great-Great Grandfather was brought back from the dead and had supernatural powers and wanted revenge.....But Bruce's GreatX8 Grandfather had been dead for hundreds of years, so he just killed Bruce's father instead.
https://i.imgur.com/FmEDlLP.png
But the final straw was when said Mortal Enemy killed Santa Claus, so Bruce adventured to find out how to get his own superpowers.
https://i.imgur.com/icQNUnT.png
So years later, Bruce finally battled his father's killer in an explosive battle to the death.
https://i.imgur.com/ExCbPOf.png
PS, the Death was his father's killer, not Bruce. Don't worry about Bruce.
https://i.imgur.com/GhCHest.png
Then as Bruce went to full on adulthood I saw that he was gaining weight, So I embraced it and gave him a receeding hairline so he could rock that Middle Aged dad look.
https://i.imgur.com/R16HU1H.png
And then he died from some weird sickness mod I downloaded.

Anyone that has read my posts on similar threads will know my best/favourite sim is Hal (you can see him in my avi). He was the first sim I created in TS4 and is still my main sim today. It is honestly like having a virtual son! :D His main traits are Neat, Perfectionist, Music Lover, and Quick Learner. He also has many reward traits, completed/ongoing aspirations, and skills.

Hal was born in the 15th century and suffered a tragic life before becoming a vampire as a young adult. He soon became one of the most infamous and powerful grand masters, but unlike others of his rank, he never truly lost his humanity and later decided to become a good vampire. It was and continues to be a daily struggle, but he has managed to tame his thirst. Sadly, there is no cure for vampirism in his world, so he suffers with eternal sadness and fitful sleep, haunted by his dark past and eternal thirst for plasma, but he is able to manage this through routine and keeping himself busy with chores/cleaning, music, reading, writing, chess, exercise, meditation, family/friends etc. (and soon knitting too). He has so much personality and is so much fun to play.

Hal now lives with his family in the quiet coastal world of Brindleton Bay. They are all different occult types, but try their best to live like normal sims and together they keep each other human. Hal's partner is a werewolf (or at least hopefully he will be soon). Being natural enemies as well as opposites, they clashed when they first met, but just like in a cliche romcom they turned out to be soulmates. They previously worked together in the culinary and business careers before adopting a baby girl (an abandoned changeling/fairy in the story). Hal then became a stay-at-home parent, which has kept him (and me) very busy, but I have plans for him to eventually apply to the University of Britechester to pursue his dreams. This will help him succeed with a freelance career and he will later buy an art gallery or bookshop to sell his creations once his daughter is old enough to start school. First though he needs to explore Selvadorada and save Strangerville, not to mention all those ongoing aspirations he still needs to complete...it's hard to juggle it all with a clingy toddler, husband and cat to feed and care for!

Erik James Cantrell is the second son in a family of five children, four boys and one girl. He's charming, to the max, has a great sense of humor. Sings like a songbird and is good-looking as well. He writes music, plays the guitar, piano and one day will conquer the violin. He's a musical genius. He loves to perform in front of crowds and has been working very hard to further his career as a Rock Star. His mother says that before he could really talk, he began to sing. That's when Joseph and Louise knew this boy was something special. While they fostered his talent, he also had chores to do like the others to help keep his head level and his hat size from inflating. Erik is generally a very nice guy, but every now and again, if you push too hard, watch out as he will push back.

https://i.imgur.com/LtATfGK.jpg

Born into wealth, the family makes a point to do volunteer work and to share their good fortune. Erik is prone to share Simoleons from his own earnings, too. Sometimes, he will even host a Charity Event, given the chance. He will be going off to university after he graduates and from there, continue his music career.

https://i.imgur.com/XaLEWnG.jpg

His Sim fans fawn all over him, since his popularity is growing at a rapid pace. Erik is quick to sign autographs or have a Selfie taken with them. He treasures his fans, knowing that without them he would be nothing. He just became a Global Superstar and he isn't even out of high school, yet. He's got a steady girlfriend and they privately got 'promised' to each other. Ordinarily sensitive and kind, Erik can be awkward at times, and he made the mistake of agreeing to go to Talent Night with a new female friend, Liberty. His mistake was that he didn't bring Tamela along with him. She happened to be at the lounge when he got there, but he could tell right away something was very wrong by the look on her face, as he and Liberty stepped off of the elevator.

https://i.imgur.com/OL0kiCW.jpg

So, he found himself in the position of many a male Sim, having to humble himself and beg for forgiveness. Happily, she didn't break it off with him.

And the story continues …

It has to be my first sim, I had never played a Sims version till I got Sims 4. I created David Powers right out of the box and played him and his sim family for at least a year. Then, when I got Sims 3 and 2, a redheaded foodie sim named David Powers was the first sim I created in both of them.

Honestly, he is most likely default everything, as in I just clicked on the default head and face options with no adjusting or detailing, but somehow I grew to love that face and his family anyway.

Does it have to be the Sims 4? Because the best ever sims I made were a family called the Wizzers in the Sims 1, I used to use the photo album to make sitcom style stories with them, they even had their own theme song! They are unfortunately long gone now but I wish I had screen shots to see what 10 year old me thought was funny, all I remember was that the parents had an ongoing feud about the lawn flamingos and their daughter had an unexplained English accent. I think I want to recreate them in the Sims 4 now lol

In the Sims 4, my sim ended up having an illegitimate daughter named Cornelia with Mortimer Goth, which due to aging being set as active household only in my game ended up being a young adult while the Goths didn't age so I made up a backstory that she was a child from a previous relationship Mortimer had when he was a lot younger and that he didn't know about her. One day Cornelia's mother dies so she shows up at the Goth's doorstep trying to reunite with her father. Here's a screenshot with her in the middle:

You can't tell from it because Mortimer decided to wear whatever outfit that is, but her clothing is more preppy/hippy themed to clash with the Goth's well goth aesthetic...

Best ever? Can't say. But an unexpected favorite? Here goes nothing.

Micaela Covington (now Micaela Winslow). She was a sim made my first time using the CAS story mode. She came out as a Loner, Good, and Glutton. ...we were off to a strong start, she was also a Doctor. Oh yeah, and her aspiration was Musical Genius. What is correlation? Never heard of it.
https://i.imgur.com/JO5vi5A.png
Let's just say she wasn't born a musical genius:

Spoiler
I made her because I wanted to try and made a doll house build. Honestly, I started this entire save just to make it a building save file but I needed to make a sim first. Here's her house.

I used her to play test the house. Then I just started playing her. The glutton trait is interesting, I've come to learn. It's kind of cute. I feel like her coworkers worried about her though.

Why do I love Micaela? She's a cute sim. I'm not talking visually, I'm talking like awkward and random cute. She eats like no one is watching, she pouts and says her feelings outright. She doesn't give up even when her ears protest her violin practice. She gets tense around people, but has worked to let others in because her profession has no mercy for loners. Now she loves to be around kindred spirits. She has truly grown and I love to see my sims have a personality of their own, not explicitly written in their traits. She's lovable, hard working, dabbles in so many random hobbies, and has a bright future ahead of her. That's Micaela, my Micaela.

This was long.

My best sim ever was in my save I named TBSE (the best save ever). Her name was Lyanna Toughnell. Then she was Scott since she married Travis Scott. She was my supersim. She maxed out every single skill that was available. She also finished all the aspirations. She was truly awesome and amazing, flawless and any other superlatives. I loved her so much. One day, out of the blue, I decided it was time to let her go and I deleted that save. It is one thing I regret the most in The Sims.

I have quite a few favorite Sims, but my most favorite is the current Heir of Generation 6, Atlas Lothario. He's married to his high school sweetheart, a father of four, and works as an astronaut, his dream job. He may look tough, but he's a big softie and a goofball.

Favorite sim, favorite sim... I'm gonna have to say Lucinda Whitfield, a teenage spellcaster I made as part of a story. Sadly, she had to die as part of the story as well, and this is why my profile picture is a ghost. She has finished all the 'nature' aspirations, as well as both spellcaster ones. She knows every spell and potion, and is now part of a runaway teen challenge. I am trying to get her boyfriend to learn the dethadify spell to bring her back to life.
