Tell me about your big saves
My favorite thing in the sims has always been playing with a big cast of characters, creating links between families. I like playing in a very loose rotation, always aging off, jumping from households...

It started out as just taking Laitha and fooling around. I think she woohoo'd like 56 different sims. Then I met the townie Brandi Denny and decided to start a family. No story to go with it, just a family for the sake of it. It wasn't until I got to Sam's family (Gen 3), did I start assigning "roles" to each family member, like a specialty only that sim could do. For example, Samantha was the artist. She was the only one who could paint pictures and thus was the head of what would eventually be the Denny Family Museum(basically paintings of every family member). The direction I would take would change starting with the birth of Josephine who would become the family vampire enthusiast. She had 4 plasma fruit trees and welcomed all vampires who wished to avoid feeding on humans and could just buy fruit from her. Then came Veronica, the first vampire born into the family, a result of a very strange union between Monica and an alien O_o, I still have no idea how that happened. Veronica would sit there for a long time since I had no real use for her at the time. Willow Creek, haha, there was literally only one pre-made family left, the Spence-Lewis family and they would play a huge role later, well at least one of them did.
EVERYTHING changed when Miranda was born. This is where I would make my first sims story. All the "pieces" I needed were steadily being placed as I went along without even realizing it. Also learning that I have an affinity towards vampirism, which is probably due to watching films like From Dusk Til Dawn, Fright Night 1 & 2, Buffy the Vampire Slayer(the movie, not the series with Sarah Michelle Gellar) the Blade Trilogy, as well as playing Bloodrayne 1 & 2.
Anyway, I'm just gonna post the list of my entire legacy family. This is in the order each member was born. I started this family 2020 and stopped sometime before the end of 2022. Yes I know "you could've had 100 family members!". So none of the original pre made sims and townies at the start of the game were around anymore, they all died and in their place were all their descendants, even Katrina and her daughters, they all died. Johnny, etc, Don, you name them and they were long dead. Probably the most interesting part about playing a long save is that eventually you're surrounding by completely new families of townies.
The 65th child was born to a townie that didn't share the same household as the member of the family and I had forgotten to check what the child's name was.
