Currently I'm doing my first legacy challenge! It's tons of fun, and my founder's daughter is currently pregnant with the next heir (I'm not sure if the baby is technically gen 2 or 3). I decided to put my own spin on it and each generation is a different decade, so I'm currently in the 20s. For each decade I'm trying to theme their careers and lives (names, hair, makeup, jobs, way of living) which is difficult with strict legacy rules...so I, ahem, occasionally bend them to my will. For the sake of storytelling. :)
Anyway, my founder is named Henrietta. She loves to garden and paint, which are traits she passed down to her daughters, Adelia and Viola. Kenneth, Henrietta's husband, is a renowned chef and painter. Ernest is the youngest in the family, and a bit of a black sheep. Not artistic or outdoorsy like the rest of his family, Ernest likes to read, play chess, and do more homework than anyone should be allowed.
Adelia is the heir since she's the oldest and Viola didn't want to fight her for it (they're best friends, and it's a matriarchy, so poor Ernest was never in the running). Viola is the 'spare' (shout-out to any fellow Hufflepuffs/Potterheads that get the reference). She takes care of the flower garden her mother started and fishes, but yearns for the glitz and glamor of the flapper era. Adelia is the painter. I'm trying to max the art career (master of the real) with her, but she also needs to have the next heir and complete her aspiration, which is to find her soulmate. Luckily for her she just had a beautiful wedding...unluckily, its the 20s and mobs are far too common, and her husband has gotten involved in one (via the criminal career track). So we'll see how the family handles that one...if the rest ever find out about it. ;)
