I thought I would create this thread as a variant of “What happened in Your Game Today?”
Serial and non-serial updates are welcome, but I know that merfolk are in other people’s games. Are they vendors? Are they playing the Violin or Guitar just because? What do you see your merfolk doing while playing another household in Rotation?
While I’m telling my story, I often check on my merfolk as they wander through the neighborhood.
Tip: The Merfolk don’t have to be your played household and they can even be a premade townie!
My Only Rule: Keep the updates focused on merfolk!

Spinning Plumbob and Serinion are my 2 primary people I go to for all my build mode CC. Both have public content, but I think the Serinion CC might require being a Patron.
Given the extreme need for mods to supplement the missing gameplay for merfolk, I’m okay with supporting someone that is creating for the kind of sims I enjoy playing the most. I could never go back to an unmodded game after everything I’ve been able to do with merfolk exclusively because of mods and CC.
That's the way I feel about the Road to Fame mod.
On the console, so many things aren’t possible. Even with the debug cheats there are limitations with placing the coral. To get the coral on the wall, you need the pc for that.
Aside from that, the debug corals only come in one color. So, there’s just so much that can’t be done on the console.
I've never owned a console, myself. Which is amusing since this new gaming laptop kept wanting me to set something or other up for my XBox?
I cheated to max Stevie's Mixology Skill. I imagine that he spent a lot of time honing his skills mixing drinks after parting with his ability to love. I wanted to show off his skills with screenshots. Of course, he has a hole in his heart now that can't be filled.
None the less, Stevie does enjoy doing tricks with bottles he's found under the sea.
I imagine that Stevie is Lir's Cousin, and Lir was a merling in the Maelstren Pod before its collapse.
Of course, Lir has been adopted by Reef and Sarah Kailani and is now a member of the Zalrian Pod. I don't think Lir would choose to leave the Zalrian Pod and the parents that took him in when he was lost and alone. If Stevie did become a new Pod Patriarch, I also don't think Stevie would actively try to separate Lir from his new family either.
Anyways, Stevie definitely enjoys mixing drinks and I think he has an ambition to mix the most perfect drinks.

Anyways, while For Rent is not designed for merfolk. It’s the only recent Pack that has actually allowed me to do something significant with my merfolk gameplay. Without the pack, some of my most recent creative endeavors would not have been possible…
I still think Merfolk in the Sims need a more concentrated effort to be developed more, but for now, I’ve turned to mods and supporting the creators that create for merfolk in the Sims. Console players simply won’t have the same experience with merfolk as PC players.

@GalacticGal Yes, I’m talking about For Rent. The place all my merfolk live is essentially 5 apartment units owned by the Zalrians, specifically Kemps. Each “apartment” is something I’m nicknaming a “Grotto” and I started building under the property to create more Grottos underground. I am thinking of moving the grottos to where Damion’s Lair is on Mua Pel’Am because it seems fitting to have all my merfolk live there and have the venues dedicated to them on St. Taz.
But, what I’m doing is not a mod or custom content. The only new CC I’ve added recently are poses. I do try to keep my mods to the minimum.
