Sounds like an awesome start 😊 I love how all in that color theme 😊
Pierre and Rosalina are lovely siblings and Sire is a very nice horse ❤️I hope that Pierre’s plans for his vineyard go well. The outfits from the new pack are great! Rosalina’s dress and necklace complement each other well and Pierre’s golden patterned top is lovely.

Anyone who have seen a thread with just screenshots of the new world?
I'm boycotting any new packs since the Kushner/Saudi Arabia takeover. - Simmerville17 days agoLegend
This must be the first pack ever where I harly checked any of the premades on my first gaming session! With my full aristocracy there was so much to do to arrange their status and add a few essensials. There's so much to take in, I can see R&L add tons of fun for a very long time. For nw, I'm just stopping by my high nobility, but I decided to wait with ad justing outfits etc, I'll need to do that gradually as CAS is so awesome!
My perfect testsim, the one with randomly matching plumbob/hair/shoes - had the pleassure of exploring Verdemar a bit more.
I just love the common areas, there are small, lovely surprises nearly everywhere I turn.
Bellacorde also loks awesome, I barely looked around this far, but this hood I will most likely play the most. I'll see the 3 hoods as in 3 different nations, and Bellacorde will be in my region Tredony of Mazaloom kingdom, which is the region where my royals have their origin. Verdemar will be in Sea kingdom, and Dambele in the Simerinia kindom, which is part of Empire of Snorthia. Phew. I know only one of them can have a king, as they are technically the same kingdom, so both Cordelia and Tybalt will be downgraded quite a bit, muha!
The views are lovely no matter where one looks... Oh, do I spot some familiar old sims down there at he swordsmanship area?
Yupp, it's my King Tarriot and Crown Princess Emireza, practicing swordsmanship!
They first paid a visit to Bellacorde, to greet the Capps. Then some sword practicing. All my high nobility will be into this sport, and I have further plans with it, but need to test a bit first.
hen the "boring" job started. Adding thrones and a few deco items to all my top families is fun, but gets a bit repititive after the tenth House. First out was of course King Tarriot and Queen Venezia.
They already had a pretty good throneroom that seats about 40 sims, but he will need the throne object, so now I just had him enter the nobility career and founding his dynasty, and then the throne must find its final placement later on.
Also Duke Jarret of Rossie (by game called Duke of Henford-on-Bagley), is into swordsmanship. His House of Ross goes 5-6 generations back and most of the males were Officers. So they probably handed a sword or two.
Most of my high noble men used to work in the Military career. I now want them in the nobility career, but I wish those two could be combined. Military career is from a gamepack though, but would fit the nobility perfectly. Anyways, most of my men are no longer very young, so it might be natural to retire. I can still have them wear a uniform occasionally.
House de Croismare became an issue...
Duke Vibrattore de Aarbyville is married, but they are ingertile. His younger brother seems to take over the dukedom eventually, but I could not add him to the fynasty. Brother has wife and 2 sons, so it would actually bring the members up to 6. It got to be a family tree glich, I'm not sure it can be addressed, but for now the Croismare dynasty has only 2 members and no heir...
Finally, House of Saxor, another long going House with military traditions, but few members and actually no heir to the Meadows dukedom (but a daughter who might help out in time).
They are the only House getting their old peerage emblem transferred to their new dynasty emblem - two cerossing swords. They reside in a penthouse in San Myshuno, and behind those yellow curtains are a splendid view over the city, so I might look for a better placement later on.
Now off to register a few more Barons to the nobility career. They will have the smaller throne, but it might be placed in a corner of their office as they are ranked quite low.

Here is Patricia. She is a commoner who just moved into Verdemar, in the tiny 20x20 starter lot with the small fisherman hut. Patricia's wardrobe is mainly but not exclusively form the new EP. She has two everyday outfits (that top looks great with pants or a dress) The pyjama might turn out to become one of my favorites. It reminds me of my favorite in the sims 2.
What better way to start your way to royalty by finding a frog to kiss? Perhaps nobility is closer that we think.
Unfortunately that didn't work so Patricia started to explore the neighborhood
Until she met a noblewoman. What better way to get to know each other than lying on the pavement in your best clothes? Watching clouds/stars is still my favorite way to get sims socializing.
But it payed off, margravine Ermelinda Abrantes knighted her and thus started Patricia's life as a noble. She is a knight now. And yes, in my world knights can be male and female. By chance my son read a book yesterday that stated female knight did exist. The book was educational, totally not sims related. Mostly were they wives who took over duties (governing, collecting taxes, not fighting) of their knight husband if he was away or dead. But still a female knight title feels more suitable to my story than the very neutral lady. Especially with the swordfighting in mind.

HollownessDevour Odin looks impressive on his throne. Renaming the noble title to God feels fitting in his case.
The photos that you have posted are lovely and it is great hearing about your families are being incorporated into the pack features ❤️ I hope that King Tarriot and Crown Princess Emiriza continue to go well increasing their swordsmanship. It is a lovely photo of the King sitting on the throne the Queen nearby 💗
Patricia’s outfits of clothing from the new pack are lovely ❤️The green, blue and red colours are very nice. The photo of the world with the boats is very scenic💗She has found a nice quiet place to enjoy fishing. I hope that she goes well in the noble career. The photo of her being knighted is lovely 💗

Lilith started her noble journey (I wish I had realised to change her clothes for something better before she did that😄) as did Vlad too.
I think Caleb won't join the noble career because he is in the writer career and writes romantic screenplays. Next I'll go and make Inna a noble vampire too. She lives in Glimmerbrook where as Lilith and Vlad reside in Forgotten Hollow. Vlad has a long journey to become the vampire king. I might have to build them new homes too... at least Lilith deserves something better, or maybe I'll find something from the gallery 😊
They are great photos of Lilith and Vlad sitting on the thrones as they begin their noble careers 🙂The crowns over their heads are very nice.
