Pasting here my post in the "vampire jobs" thread lol
"A self-employed writer, most likely, because it allows you to rake in a ton of money from Copyrights, stay indoors and remain incognito (since you can use a Pseudonym).
One particular thing that drives me to the writer career is the book of life. For now I plan on creating an evil vampire queen who is one of the most powerful her kind searching for a way to overcome death - in any of its forms - and become something close to a dark goddess. While researching, she discovers some ancient lore regarding the book of life, which could supposedly resurrect anyone whose soul was bound to it. The only issue was that the book was created by a noble lineage of ancient scribes, who found in their craft a particular usage for their own blood. Therefore, only their descendants could perform the task of recreating the artifact.
The lineage was lost in time, but, fortunately, tracing bloodlines isn't a hard thing for our vampire queen, and that is where my sim comes in: he's an orphan and secluded writer who descends from the book of life's lineage. The queen eventually tracks him down and disguises herself, getting closer and closer to our fellow writer, acting like the mother he never had.
She encourages him to keep honing his writing and watches his stellar ascension as a writer, both in fame and skill. However, even with such mastery, my sim was not yet able to unravel the scrolls she gave him containing the secret formula used to produce the book of life. The queen realizes he will need more than a lifetime to fulfill her desire, and decides to reveal her true nature and offer him eternal life. Inebriated with the prospect of immortality, he accepts the proposal. After his transformation, both move to Forgotten Hollow, where my sims learns about the ways of the vampires with his former protector, now maker and mother in different ways.
Centuries later, during a hunt, my sim meets a goup of human tourists who are casually lost in Forgotten Hollow. It didn't take long before the slaughter started, but something made him pity one of the mortals, and drop him still alive at a local hospital's door. He watches over his almost-victim during his recovery, delighted with the charming ways of the mortal - who somewhat reminded him of his former self.
The queen notices here pupil's strange behavior and discovers his newly-found obsession, which leaves her worried. If he chose to mate with the mortal, what would she become in his life? What interest would he have in binding the book to the soul of an ancient monster, when he could use it to preserve the life of a beloved one? And who could grant he'd be able to write more than one book, if centuries later he still wasn't able to start the first?
As the mortal recovers completely from the incident, he decides to leave Forgotten Hollow immediately, returning to his hometown. At this point, my sim was already addicted to him, and decides to depart along.
When the queen hears the of this, she begins to plot the mortal's demise through one of her minions. . My sim eventually uncovers her evil feats and successfully stops her scheme.
Unable to risk destroying the one person who could grant her true immortality and her most beloved creature, the queen retreated to Forgotten Hollow, in order to elaborate other ways to obtain the book of life - but from now on, she'd have to do it forcefully.
My sim disguises himself and begins living with his human lover, and after a while they both decide to have a child through surrogacy, thus continuing my sim's ancient lineage and generating a new potential target for the queen."
