(As mentioned in the contest thread, I had plans to use my girls for something more)
It's not important how Vlad and Susan were brought together, the point is that they were together.
Though, if you disagree, click on the
They had a happy life together full of love and passion...and full of girls. They'd had a Sims glitch miracle and Susan had given birth to quadruplets.
Amella, Berucca, Chysm, and Dulcinea. The beautiful nooboo girls. Watermelon and the kids' music station made amazing things happen. Berucca and Dulci had been born vampires, just like daddy. The girls grew to start displaying that they had similarities to mom and dad, but definitely had their own personalities.
Amella, the constantly disheveled child, took straight to writing. Berucca, the insane Sim, was a gifted artist. Chysm, the very reserved musical prodigy, was horribly scarred by her amorous parents at a young age. And Dulcinea, the couch potato, was rather clumsy.
And here's a close-up of the girls as children.
In order to be sure she could be there for her daughters for a good, long time, Susan made a personal change (with Vlad's help).
Yep, they officially married and she went vampire.
The girls enjoyed their childhood years, even though family outings seemed to only happen at nighttime. As the days (or nights) went by, the girls grew and became even more distinct in their personalities.
Amella learned to love pillow fighting, rocked leggings with duckies or butterflies on them, and continued with her writing. She has already finished multiple novels. She is particularly fond of earth tones. And leggings. Always leggings.
Berucca shares in those pillow fights, she continues painting, and she is mastering every instrument she can get her hands on. She popped an early wish to go with the Renaissance Sim LTW, and being a teen vampire, quickly completed it. Charisma wasn't one of the skills she used to complete it, hence the nice shot of her mocking one of the guests at their teen party. As can easily be seen, Berucca likes the color purple and has unique ideas about fashion.
Chysm spends her time trying to avoid people and playing music. She is particularly infatuated with the violin and the guitar. She favors the color blue and likes to hide her eyes with her own hair.
Dulcinea, the fourth-born girl, has really gotten into science, and has achieved serious nerd credit. Hence her social skills include mind melding with her dance partner. Realizing that Vlad had not been blessed with any sons, Dulci tried to clone him...and accidentally cloned herself. Dulci favors purple and pink as they go with her hair.
Ezabeth, the clone of Dulci, was quickly caked up to teen by her sisters (while mom and dad were off on a vacation). Ezzy's interests include...boys. She also has mastered photography and painting to achieve her LTW. Like Dulci, Ezzy wears a decent amount of purple and pink to match the hair.
Some interesting things happened throughout their teen years.
Amella had breakfast with the ghost that keeps making poor, cowardly Dulci faint. Chysm and Berucca both has blackops from school to catch fish and Berucca got more excited than anyone has the right to over catching a tiny minnow. Ezzy became a horse stalker. Dulci proved that she can't tell time as she was brought home after curfew by the police. Multiple times.
Finally, our young ladies became young adults.
Amella continued her passion for leggings and writing, and she registered as a self-employed writer. She turned out to be a rather lovely young woman who strongly resembles her mother. Amella has the following traits: genius, bookworm, ambitious, eccentric, and computer whiz.
Berucca aged up to teen and then YA with the hair I use for Zheena Ghast, so it had to be changed. I think this is a rather stunning look for her. She continues to demonstrate her insanity and to exhibit unique fashion sense. She has accepted a job as an art appraiser. Her traits are: insane, daredevil, avant-garde, rebellious, adventurous, and artistic. She got an extra trait for maxing out the rebel social group.
Chysm is a rather beautiful young woman who would probably be rather popular with the gentlemen if she could ever make eye contact and speak with them. Our girl continues to be the musician who hates crowds. Her traits are as follows: virtuoso, shy, natural born performer, socially awkward, and loner.
Dulci is lovely when she isn't walking around looking terrified. She has accepted a career in video game development. Her traits are: eccentric, clumsy, couch potato, coward, and green thumb. Due to some odd glitch (perhaps the same one that gave us quadruplets in the first place), she only got four traits, but the extra one from the nerd group brought her back up to five.
Ezzy was caked up to young adult the day after her sisters aged up. She's a lovely variation on Dulci's looks (which are rather similar to Vlad's). Her traits (which I did at random) are commitment issues, hydrophobic, eccentric, supernatural skeptic, and artistic. She has not settled on a career track yet, though photography and painting are forerunners.
So, here are all five girls rocking their formal wear. left to right, we have Ezzy, Amella, Chysm, Berucca, and Dulci.
One of these lovely young gals will be the founder of a legacy for me. However, there are some odd twists to my legacy. To keep the challenge fresh and alive, each heir will move out of the family home and into the home of their new spouse. At this point, the couple will be made penniless (including selling all items in the house) and will have to rebuild from the ground up (with the exception of actually having a roof over their heads). Also, each generation will have multiple children and the selection of the heir will be by vote rather than by my favoritism (which will help keep things interesting for me). I will also not be using watermelons or apples to push gender in either direction. My founder will already have some LTR points built up, so to limit them from using that to shortcut the poverty stage, they cannot spend any of those points until the firstborn child reaches the teen years.
Here is your challenge, wonderful readers: you are to choose which of these lovely ladies will be the founder for my legacy. The link here will take you to that poll.

The second part of the challenge is that the selection of our starting town will be up for vote as well. We will either go urban, rural, or fantasy. The options are Bridgeport, Appaloosa Plains, or Dragon Valley. The link to that poll can be found here:

I'll leave the voting open until midnight of January 7th.
Thanks for taking the time to read and vote. I'm excited to see where we end up and which of the girls becomes my founder.

Okay, so you're curious. Cool. The pairing was brought together as my entry for a CAS contest. I came in second, but I had so much fun with it and liked the results so much that this follow up was the result. Enjoy!
