What have you done with Don Lothario?

This is an old thread, but I gave him a makeover to give him blonde hair and make him look like a classy, misogynistic womaniser. He bullies Bob Pancakes a lot. Another sim he bullies is Travis Scott (Just a suggestion:Make Travis dark skinned and black-haired, it looks adorable), he even stole Travis' girlfriends, Liberty and Summer, yet cheats on them a lot. He's "settled down" with Cassandra Goth, but he forbids her from getting a job, she has to do the cleaning and cooking around the house. He also cheats on her a lot, even right under her nose. Yet she stays with him because he's convinced her it's the only kind of love she'll get. He's got it's a good reputation yet its completely false.

I love Don Lothario! He's been a significant character in a lot of my gameplay starting with TS1, TS2 and now TS4. The biggest role he's ever played is as the spouse to my Drifter founder, Ella McDonough. My avy is an image of them as adults. :) They had a daughter, Della, who ended up being one of my most beautiful ever born in-game Sims.

In prior saves he had a child with the founder of a Legacy I started not long after the game first came out. I never finished it though since I had an old toaster of a laptop at the time and the file ended up way too laggy to continue.

He also had a fling with my free-spirited Hippie, Sunshine Beam, that resulted in a Son, James Beam. James went on to be the spouse of Queenarella's Gen 3 heir, Temperance Brennan, as the winner of her Bachelor/Bachelorette Legacy Challenge. They had 5 children together.

Don was also best buds with my first astronaut in the game, Andrew Hudson. I featured them in a short story here on the forum for Grilled Cheese week a long time ago.

My photography Sim, Nayeli Washington, did a photoshoot with him and they later ended up in bed together. I guess the photos turned her on or something. :D They're an on again/off again kind of couple though. She's just moved to San Myshuno and wants to keep her options open.

He's been good friends with many, many of my Sims, both male and female, in purely platonic relationships too. Surprisingly, he hasn't been one of my 100 Baby Challenge baby Daddies, yet. You'd think he'd be the first one since he's so easy to get in bed, being the town bike and all. But nope. Maybe if I ever continue that challenge he will be a candidate.

In my custom template save I use to start all gameplay, the Calientes are gone, but Don still lives in their house along with Paolo Rocca and a few other bachelors of my own design. I've never paired him up with Bella in TS4 as lore suggests should happen. I have a rule in my game that breaking up married couples or having affairs with married Sims is forbidden. I know that's not realistic, but, meh. My game, my rules. :)

So that's what I've done with Don in my game so far, I'm sure he'll appear in many gameplay saves in the future as well. He's just so fun in his randy demeanor. Viva La Don! <3

Hes dead ???

One of my vampires seduced him and locked him in a pen for food until he froze to death. Now his ghost haunts a house in Newcrest with the ghosts of Diego Lobo and Gunther Munch. I've taken them to Selvadorada and Batuu so far. Don is still himself and is carrying on affairs with two townie women, one of whom is married. They don't seem to mind him being dead.

He's usually just background candy these days. I did have a save where I played him for a bit when I went off on a side story when I discovered he had gotten together with Dina just before they turned into elders. Dear Don went out "happy" after some rocket fun with her. She was quite heartbroken and didn't last much longer afterward. Good times. :smiley:

I made him extremely fat with a magic potion. My Chief of Mischief vampire dropped the potion off at his house and, thinking it was an energy drink, Don drank it. ?
He is also a work colleague of said vampire (Norrell Quest, who is the top left sim in my avatar). They are arch rivals and Don is also a frequent target for voodoo pranks.

In my current game Don had 2 illegitimate sons, then when he was an older adult he married a much younger townie woman and they had 4 sons and a daughter. There are Lotharios all over the place now!

In my game... he's back!
He should have grey 'elder' hair, but interestingly with the latest patches, elders don't automatically have the grey hair anymore. :D

He's currently married to Dina and they have three kids together. Delilah (child), Dexter (toddler), and Daphne (baby). Don and Dina are pretty happy with their family.

i found out that originally on ts2, Don was apparently called Don Baxter and was married to a woman named Sarah. so the description goes like "Don, Sarah, and little Alex settled down in Waterside. Sarah wants a bigger family, but Don still craves the romance of his youth. Can you hold this family together, or will these Sims just grow apart?" (the romance of his youth is Dina) https://sims.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_Sims_used_in_promotional_materials
so i've tried to do that on ts4. of course most of the time i go for his current story & name, i give him a good makeover and abandon him somewhere on my saves. haven't focused much on premades lately so i might come back to him.
