I have to cause the drama and incorporate it in my story for it to happen. In my save I’ve had for basically 3 years (6 gens on the main family), and when jy comes down to it, there’s just not a lot of non-purposeful drama. I do have some stories, but when you take into account 3 years of steady playing…it’s not a lot.
My second generation main character, Remus, married Eliza Pancakes and planned to have babies with her. She died in a fire while I was gone for 5 minutes, so they continued to have a ghost- human marriage, and she helped him raise his twins from his previous marriage till they divorced and he married his teen sweetheart.
I’ve told this story before, but my 2nd gen had 3 kids (Remus, Robin, Delilah). Their parents were named Kersie and Hunter. Delilah had ate the kelp as a teen and turned to a mermaid, and as a young adult, met a man (who turned out to be an alien) named Henry. They married on Sulani beach. Not even 5 minutes after they had officially done the ceremony, Henry went trotting over to Delilah’s mom, Kersie and flirted with her. In front of Hunter. Because the cheating system is stupid, even though Kersie declined her brand new son-in-laws request, Hunter got mad at her. This continued, with my order, to spiral into many displays of cheating in Delilah’s and Henry’s marriage. He got multiple other women pregnant, some multiple times. Made it worse since Delilah and Henry lived with her parents till they died. The children they had where the first run in I had with hybrids. When their eldest, Gwendolyn, reached child, she started glitching. Hair color would change in CAS randomly, bunch of other glitches. She had signs of being alien and mermaid. Finally, her entire body in CAS completely disappeared, leaving only her head. I deleted her, made another fake Gwen, and fearing the same for their new baby, cheated and had her taken away so my game wouldn’t glitch. Delilah is my sim that had the most fertility issues, and prior to her, I didn’t even know pregnancy tests could be negative. She had around 3-4 negatives In her life, and only 3 kids (one was adopted).
The only other times I remember isn’t so much drama, just shock, when the women would give birth to more children then expected, and having to change the storyline around that (such is the case of the Remus’ twins I referred to earlier)
There was that time when my 4th gen heir, Swan, was having a meet and greet with her fans, and her brother (vampire) burned to a crisp when it was DUSK, and there was optional cover for him! That still makes me mad.
