Townies

The premades and townies are almost always secondary characters. I sometimes add in more that I don't intend to play .. just put them in houses for extras.. they can be sims my friends will make friends with, have in their clubs... background mostly. If my sims get to know them well enough and it feels right they might become a main character .. usually by moving them in.
They also serve as the victims when I engage in deviant play. I've played with most of the premades in many ways .. poor things. I do have favorites but that's mostly the ones my sims come in contact with more frequently because of where I tend to make them live.

The premades are lot of fun to mess with. I have particular fun with Cassandra & Don. In previous games I followed their romantic relationships but now I usually have her marry either Don or the Landgrabb son (I forgot his name and don't feel like looking it up lol). Then she usually has an affair with another woman. That's about as devious as I get to be honest. There's a mod that allows Sims to kill one another and sometimes I like to play with that. Do you have a sim or family you frequently attach to your created Sims?

I really like the premades that came with Get Together and the Vampire gemeplaypack :).
I even play with aging of because of them, because I don't want to see them die :D

I really enjoy the aesthetic and CAS for vampires I just haven't had a reason to play them since I got the pack. The implimention of weaknesses and strengths was really interesting to fiddle with in the beginning. I want to make a story with Lillith and her man to play with them more but as far as actual Game Play goes, I haven't touched the system much. Once my Wonderchild is complete, I may find a vampire-based challenge to put them in if I'm still attached by the end of the challenge. Do you have a certain way you play with your vampires other than aging off?

I evict them from their homes, then ignore them after that. The only reason I keep them in the game is because someone needs to man the food stalls.

Haha, that makes sense. I was playing through the Detective career with a sim I made and this one townie kept showing up with cat-ears and I'm like --- wtf are you doing, lady? I get this is simland and the cop career isn't totally necessary but jeez. I was trying really hard to play without cheats beyond fixing the bug that came up when you had a suspect who was also a co-worker but man, did I want to go into CAS and fix this Sim. lol. Do you refill their homes with premades from the gallery or do you make your own townies?

I don't play with them at all but they always get makeovers to fit my style a little bit better. I honestly can't delete the premades because I feel like they are part of the game hehe
I'm actually posting all of the makeovers at my tumblr over here.

I just followed you! I'm under the same username over at my Tumblr, so if you find a familiar username thats why. :) Do you prefer Maxis Match with your make overs or do you use the alpha-style that CC makers created?
