NGC Zach vs Eth
What a strange title, I hear you say. Yes well, I was struck with such a brilliant idea to solve me having to pick an heir.
I was 100% set on using Zimos. But then I felt bad for Elvira. Then I realised I should probably organise to do something with my friends as I have no life worrying over sims. Then I laughed because I have no friends. Then I cried and ate ice cream. But enough about me…
Welcome to the NGC Split!
Whaaat? Spliiit? What does this mean?
You know that Zimos moved to Sunset Valley with Star.
But what you don’t know is that Elvira moved to Twinbrook alone.
WHAAAAT?
Dual Heirship, away we go. They said it couldn’t be done, but here we are. Two seperate save files, sure, so it might be a competition of which one breaks last.
Firstly I’ll just tell you some boring bits about how I’m going to do it.
Firstly remember these images, I’ve figured the easiest way to do it is to have Zimos and Elvira have 6 kids each and each part will be like a ‘vs’ meaning Zimos will have a multi-birth to make it fair and you’ll see Zimos’ first born alongside Elvira’s first born. It might make chapters longer so I apologise for that but trying to orientate between different parts and different babies seems more confusing in my head. Does that even make sense? I don’t know. Each new split I’ll head with these images to try and make it easier to follow and I’ll do the classic “In the household at the moment…” intro to keep everyone up to speed. This is to prevent an Elvira side or a Zed side where it’s all higgildy piggidly and parts are just everywhere.
I think it’s fair. Both Zimos and Elvira now have no skill points or family or anything (just a short painful reminder that everything that went wrong, did go wrong in Hidden Springs). Zimos does have Star, possible advantage, but they are just acquaintances at this point, Elvira also has a smaller lot meaning she has more money to start with.
Also, points are going to be provisional. I’ll award myself points when whatever half wins the heir poll – that is right one big heir poll at the end with all 12 kids to decide who will continue!
Well, I think that is how I’m going to play it, we’ll see. That wasn’t very interesting. I’m sorry.
So first, let’s see how Zimos is!
The first thing that goes down is building their relationship. This is how I know Star was not a waster, Zimos and Star become friends quickly so this relationship is a doddle.
Zimos doesn’t have a lot of money and since Zimos and Star aren’t an item yet I bought them sleeping bags.
For the first time ever the Magician career isn’t in the newspaper. Star’s LTW is to be a Master Magician so she will work on that and Zimos just joined the Education career on the basis that I don’t think there is a LTW associated with that… or if it is it is one my sim kids don’t generally roll up so I thought it would be a safe bet.
It’s still the first dy and things are going well with Zimos and Star.
So well I bought a double bed, you know what that means ;) ;) right?
Super quick wedding, Zimos and Star Muse!
And a lullaby was heard.
Star must be brave. She literally put it out moments after starting it. I’m really sorry, I’ve gotten so lazy with the traits and personality stuff.
I apologise but I’m not going to change. You can see it on the download bit which saves me the job (Thanks EA / Maxis)
Star also barfed a lot which was more proof I didn’t need to see of the upcoming mess maker
Star pops. The most annoying thing ever, she can not do anything magic related whilst pregnant. Not cool.
Zed works all day, sleeps then works on his book in the library at night. They can’t afford a computer. They are so broke, it is immensely enjoyable.
And a few uneventful days later, meet Zach Muse!
Now let’s catch up with Elvira
This is her small lot
She joined the Ghost Hunter profession, something I normally tend to avoid, but I think this will be fun to try.
Her LTW is to be a Chess Legend so now I have to get her to re-master her Logic skill, but I mean that goes hand in hand with her profession so already everything is coming up Elvira.
She easily beats her first opponent, one of Mary Baker’s boys, before her first shift at work.
How cute, I’m enjoying this profession.
With going to peoples houses and inviting over ranked chess players I think she will easily find a mate. But, I am going to hate her being pregnant.
A few days go by so I look online to see what Twinbrook has to offer. Online dating, the in game cheat for legacies and challenges everywhere ;)
Then she meets Harwood, through chess, and he is the only single male I’ve found so far.
They are cute together, and when baby pops and Elvira rolls up the want to marry Harwood, I lock it in.
The next day, or maybe even later that day … They get married!
Harwood Muse, a retired Stagehand. I immediately make him re-join the music career since money is tight
Then not a lot happens until Elvira gives birth to vampire baby boy Eth!
And that is all for now.
Next time we’ll see I vs L!
