"what could go wrong?" legacy challenge

do you like creating complex stories with complex characters? inspired by the Not So Berry legacy challenge , we’ve created this challenge to explore new stories and experiences in our games. welcome to our ten generation legacy challenge, “what could go wrong?” created by @curioustraits and @maadsimming

follow our WCGW stories @curious.whims and @maad.whims over on instagram!

challenge rules:

each generation has a suggested color for you to follow; this of course is optional but it makes it a bit more fun!

the colors of the spouses don’t matter. unless specifically stated in the rules, you can do whatever you please with them.

some generations will have relationship rules, however if none are stated, the relationships between all sims will be up to your interpretation!

unless said otherwise, money cheats can be used, but not excessively. suggestion: use freerealestate  for your first home, but no cheats afterward.

your sims may live wherever you please unless the world is specified in the rules of a generation.

every heir should complete the rules, aspiration, and career(s) of the generation unless explicitly stated otherwise.

generation six: blending in.

you always admired big friend groups and being surrounded by people. you wanted it, you needed it. but because of one simple flaw, you were kept at a distance. being an alien wasn't fun or quirky for you, it was isolating. you studied how to be human as much as you could... picking up several skills, doing weird jobs. finally, when you prepared yourself enough you took a big leap straight into business in hopes to blend into society as perfectly as you can.
