THE SIREN’s CURSE (challenge)
🧜♀️ The Siren’s Curse Challenge – A Sims 4 Legacy of Death and Water Created by: @simzfreakz Genre: Story-driven supernatural challenge Style: Generational-lite, fantasy drama Playable In: Base game + Island Living recommended (for mermaids) Inspired by: Gothic myths, tragic mermaid folklore, and simmering generational trauma 💀 THE LEGEND “A mermaid’s love comes with a price. If she brings life into the world, then when that life grows… hers must end.” Centuries ago, a mermaid made a deal with the ocean to protect her child. In exchange, the sea demanded the bloodline. Now, every mermaid born into this cursed legacy must die when their child becomes a teenager. But only if they’re a mermaid. Some children are spared. Some are born human and escape the sea’s grip. But when a mermaid is born again in the bloodline… the curse returns. 🧜♀️ THE RULES This is not a traditional generational challenge. Think of it more like Rags to Riches or the Not So Berry Challenge — a set of gameplay rules to guide your storytelling. 🌊 SETUP Create your founder: A young adult human Sim named whatever you want. Move them into Sulani (or a beach lot of your choosing). Within 7 in-game days, they must become a mermaid using Mermadic Kelp. They must have at least one biological child after becoming a mermaid. Build a beach mansion before their death — it will become the family home. 🔱 THE CURSE When a mermaid gives birth, she will die the moment her child becomes a teenager. The curse only activates if the parent is a mermaid (born or turned by kelp). The death must be natural or planned (drowning, old age, emotional death, etc.). No cheating death — no Ambrosia, no Dedeathify, no resurrection. If the parent is not a mermaid, nothing happens. They live. If no mermaids are born, the curse remains dormant until one is. BLOODLINE RULES 🩸 Sim Type Mermaid? Has Kids? Kid Becomes Teen? Result Turned Mermaid (Kelp) Yes Yes Yes Dies Human Sim No Yes Yes Lives Born Mermaid Yes Yes Yes Dies Born Mermaid Yes No No Lives Adopted Child No No Yes Lives The curse follows the bloodline, not the household. 🧬 CURSE CHAIN If your founder dies because of the curse, but their child is not a mermaid → the curse ends. If a mermaid is born again later (ex: a grandchild), the curse reactivates. Only one mermaid per generation is allowed — either naturally born or by kelp. No more. You may choose which child is cursed by giving them mer

Strangerville: Shadows in the Dust | A Manicpot8to LP
Something's off in strangerville, but no one's saying it out loud. The air buzzes with secrets, the neighbors act strange, and the military presence is just a little too strong for a sleepy desert town. This story follows three threads converging: A secretive base with an agenda no one's willing to explain. Gloria, a newcomer with nothing left to lose and a knack for noticing what others ignore. And Bo, a loner who came to find the truth while hiding a secret of her own. Each character is drawn here for different reasons. Some came seeking answers. Others? Planned only to pass through. But no matter the reason, they all stay... because something won't let them leave. All this unfolds across my custom Strangerville builds, and each update will reveal more of the mystery. Feel free to follow along, and I look forward to reading everyone's thoughts and theories! Next up: Meet the residents. Not all of them are what they seem. Roll Call Episode One: Not just the oven Episode Two: She was "fine" Episode Three: The edge of recall
💜 Quick Creativity CAS Challenge 💜 GLovelysQCC
Hi lovely friends! I'm rolling out this quick creativity challenge today April 3, 2020 in an effort to give you more exciting things to do as we all #StayAtHome in the weeks ahead. The main goal of this challenge is to design and upload original creations quickly and on weekends only. The focus of these creativity challenges is to grow your CAS skills since that's the creative section I'm most passionate about in The Sims. However, I may choose to challenge you on rooms and builds too as the challenge continues. The rules and creative direction will be posted here each Friday. Create and upload your entry to the gallery beginning each Friday after the new direction/rules post through 11:00PM MST Monday using the hashtag #GLovelysQCC I love to make Maxis nominations so this challenge will help me find some fantastic things created by you much more easily to share in the nominations threads. It would be very helpful for you to review this link on how Maxis chooses creations to fave before you share your entries. https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/955438/how-do-we-choose-our-maxis-faves-curation-guide#latest Randomly I will invite a group of talented creators to judge all of the entries during prize rounds. Prizes will consist of The Sims 4 Expansions, Game or Stuff packs as I choose. I will let you know each Friday when I post the creative directions if that weekend will be a judging weekend prize round. In addition, please feel free to share your creations here in the form of screenshots (limit 3), description and gallery links weekend after weekend. I'd love to see this thread filled with your Sims creativity! Also, please share your creations on other platforms too like #Twitter or #Instagram. If you do, please tag me so I can see ;) Thanks for taking the time to read this thread! I'm so excited to roll out these quick creativity challenges each weekend and I'm looking forward to seeing all the fabulous creations you share with me! FIRST WEEKEND KICK-OFF -- PRIZE ROUND! Creative Direction & Rules: We've all been quarantined at home for various amounts of time now. For this first QCC please create one original family household that resembles your own family household. You can make simselves but that is not a requirement. You may include pets if you have them in your home. In your description please briefly describe your family and share with us what your family is doing to pass the time as we stay home. Do you craft? Write? Game? Read? Bake? Have you reorganized your home? Please share tips and optimism in your description. Be sure to include the hashtag #GLovelysQCC in your description before you upload to the gallery. Design every outfit category for every sim in the household Give at least 1 family member the "family oriented" trait Write your creation description according to the above guide NoCC and no defaults (defaults replace the original Maxis skin/eyes but are not officially tagged as CC) Only Maxis poses Reuploaded/Copied creations will be disqualified Have a blast creating for us! This is a prize round so the winner will be chosen by a panel of active gallery sim creators. Winner will receive their choice of either the City Living EP OR the Get Together EP game code redeemable on Origin for PC. (If you have these EP's already and you win you may choose an alternate.) Stay safe at home and happy simming always lovelies! 💜

Premade townies' personal notes
Maybe Mortimer Goth writes about his beloved collection of bugs. Perhaps Vladislaus Straud is scribbling melodies ideas. It's unlikely that the fate of Jacques Villareal's late wife is hidden between pages about gardening, but someone should check anyway. And just imagine what would Don Lothario writes in his notebook... Did you come up with a notebook idea you want to share? Please do!
