The Shaw Household The home they live in isn't quite big enough for Emiliana, Halo and the three Unicorns. But Emiliana can't just abandon them after rescuing them, having lost their mother, and with the bond she is developing with each animal, she plans to take the Equestrian World by storm in breeding, racing, jumping, cross country - everything expected of a world renowned horse rancher, or rather she WILL be, someday. This is their tiny home. Well, for a family of their size. First though, she needs to get her riding skills up. She's quite nervous being on Starla, especially when Starla takes off galloping. "Whoa! Starla! Whoa!" Emiliana exclaimed, slowing Starla down to a much more manageable trot. Emiliana was happy for Starla's endless patience. She knows she was a nervous wreck, but Starla took it in stride and didn't allow her inexperienced rider to spook or agitate her. When Emiliana heard there was going to be a racing competition, she signed them up for it. She wanted to test their mettle so they knew what areas to work on. They came last. "So a lot then," Emiliana murmured to Starla, with earned a neigh in agreement. Not letting it discourage her, Emiliana and Starla practiced in between looking after Halo and the two foals. Even in the rain. Emiliana's confidence began to grow and it seemed as though Starla trusted her more and was becoming faster and more agile. Later that same week, Emiliana and Starla won $400 for placing second in a racing competition and $25 for placing 6th in a jumping competition. Not near enough to move out of their current home, but it was a start as they both continue to work on their bond. Of course the foals needed attention too. Emiliana thought it best to get their training started early by leading them around the surrounding area of her small ranch. It was made easier as Frosticle would follow Cinnamon everywhere, but Frosticle still needed to get used to the bridle since Cinnamon wouldn't always been in the same race as her. She also needed to learn to trust Emiliana if she was to ever enter any Equestrian competitions. And of course it wouldn't do to have Goldie not receive any training, so Emiliana taught her how to hunt. Who knows, maybe Goldie will find some valuable stuff so that they could move into a bigger ranch sooner. While the young ones were training with Emiliana, Starla decided to spend the day practicing to jump. There was a competition coming up and Starla wanted to do her best for her rider. The jumps did pay off, and the pair ended up in second place, but in the racing competition, Emiliana and Starla took home the gold. In Part two, the pair tackle a jumping course. Will Starla lose her nerve?

It was a bright sunny day and the residents of Storybrook just started to awaken. We peek in on the Kennedy household. The founder of this family is Emillye Kennedy (my simself) who married Connor (now Colin) Frio and their children starting with the eldest: Seth, Tayme and Ollie. The little girl used to be Seth's imaginary friend, now brought to life, her name is Vanilla. Their pet dog is Halo and their young horse is Wilder. Vanilla had seen the young foal walking along the road, neighing softly, looking for his mother. Vanilla befriended the colt and brought him home. Colin and Emillye accepted it as they accepted a doll brought to life and a mummy, so why not a foal, but told Vanilla she had to be the one to look after him. The Mummy, Adamnus, followed Emillye home after one of her many adventures in a sarcophagus she brought back with her. He made quick friends with the brave Emillye, but loves to scare Colin whenever he can. Emillye and her family used to live in Sunset Valley before settling in Storybrook. She used to be a CEO of a Mega Corporation but has since retired while Adamnus works as a organ donor (weird but ok) and Colin is a professional gardener. Seth, Tayme, Colin and Emillye went to the summer festival and decided to get into a water balloon fight. Despite Tayme and Colin (who makes the BEST faces) getting hit with balloons, in the end they were the ones who won. As a consolation, Seth treated himself to a sno cone. We move over to peek in on Maveryn Castle. A witch of mysterious origin with the mark of a vampire, but no vampiric powers. Perhaps dormant inside of her, Maveryn lives in the woods away from the town and normally can be found in her Magics shop or telling a sim their fortune when not at home. Maveryn is not evil and nor is she good, she is an alchemist at heart and a brewer of potions. Oftentimes, she is misunderstood, because of the fortunes she bestows on others. Heed her words or don't, it's your life. Her household consists of herself, her Armored Black Dragon, Wicked, and her kitten, Mags. They are her most trusted friends. She just doesn't believe she'll ever be more than the scary old witch of the town. Someone you go to when you need a little magical helping hand. And so she brews. And hones her magical skill, for whatever may come her way. Maveryn, not having the money to hire a salesclerk, tends her cash herself. It's not the best part of the job, but Maveryn is hopeful she can earn enough money to hire a salesclerk, so she can do what she likes best, telling fortunes. Although oftentimes, the townsfolk don't really believe Maveryn is a seer and believe the fortunes to be bogus. It's why Maveryn carries a Voodoo doll. So she can bind the sim to it and take out her frustration to the more rude customers. Although what is more interesting is that Maveryn met two very interesting characters. Faelan, who was wearing a towel. She was polite enough about it, but wondered why the werewolf was walking around mostly nude. She also met THE Count Dracula. Weird that his head was shaved and he wasn't wearing a shirt and maybe thought there was something in the water that made the men just a touch crazy. In this house, tiny as it is, doesn't really have the room for its occupants. Only one box stall downstairs with room for the pup to sleep and eat and the upstairs is nothing more than a bachelorette pad. Not even enough room to run around the yard. But the owner has a dream. (And incidentally, you'll be seeing her again soon because she is the Legacy Founder in the other story coming out in 2 weeks time.) Emiliana Shaw dreams of being an amazing horsewoman. She's befriended 3 unicorns, and if that isn't the start of an amazing legacy, what else could be? Only thing, she needs to tame them just enough to ride and lead them. Here she is getting on Starla to practice jumping and riding at the training grounds while Cinnamon, Frostbite and Goldie (the husky) gallop and run around. It's a bit nerve racking to be a top a unicorn, however, Starla is a sweetheart and doesn't throw her inexperienced rider. Before too long they are jumping over the training jumps like a pro. Although they do need to take breaks so Starla can give attention to the two young foals. She may not be their mother, but it helps them to have another unicorn to be affectionate with. Emiliana does her best to give them attention and bottle feed them as much as possible. She hopes they one day turn into beautifully grown unicorns, strong and fast. And when the day is done, they head back home for some grub, some grooming, and a little shut eye. Next Time . . .We meet the mysterious Hecate le Fay and two other families. What secrets will we learn of Hecate? Or is she just a harmless and lonely old sim.
Hello all and welcome! Storybrook County (a world I downloaded from My Sims Realty) is finally finished. Well, as finished as it is going to get for now, but the town is ready to play and the empty lots will fill up eventually lol. So my plans are to do two types of stories. One where I play rotational so you can see the goings on with each town member. Although with Twallan's SP, anything can happen and probably will. The next type will be a legacy challenge. I've never gone past Gen 3 and it's about time I did. So this post is about meeting the townspeople and then a poll at the end to decide who should be the founder of my new legacy. One thing to note though. Some of the townspeople are already "established" so they won't be available for the legacy challenge, BUT, they will have legacy opportunities, like polls for the new heirs as they come up. Now with these two stories, my tentative plan, and I will try uber hard to stick to it, is to update each story once a month about two weeks apart. Lets meet the town! Astra NovaAstra is a 100% alien. (I maybe got moddy with a few things, hehe). She wants to be a blog artist. The Fairy TwinsMeet Wintry Bominable and Diana Fawn. Wintry wants to adopt a unicorn and Diana wants to do Magic Makeovers. Fun fact about Diana, not only is she a fairy, she's also an Imaginary Friend. Maybe one day, she'll show you her Toy Form. Fancy PantsMeet Fancy Pants. She's a partner at Fancy Pants Ristorante, and hopes to buy out the other partners to reclaim the business her father lost, but for now works as a lowly kitchen helper. Faelan PhoenixFaelan is a werewolf and he plans to join the Law Enforcement. Best not to break the law during a full moon The Blaine TwinsThe twins of Christian Blaine and my simself, Nino and Nina Blaine live together with their friend, Jamie Marsters. Nino has joined the Education Career, while wanting to get noticed for his street art, while Nina dreams of being a big time actress in the film career.

The Blossom HouseholdThis household consists of an Alien Fairy and her daughter and Arashi Kazama.

Tink-Ann WeldTink-Ann has joined the military career temporarily, although what she really wants to do is be an inventor. Trevor SpearsTrevor was a gift from Ciane.

This family is already big on the horse racing and breeding scene and Emiliana's biggest competition. The Moore Family. A single dad raising his three sons on his own. Earlier today, Cat had mentioned a useful cheat on Crinrict's blog that helps with placing lots and correcting if they sink or elevate. I was facing that particular issue, because the world I downloaded doesn't have a lot of large lots and Cat's lot I wanted to use was gonna be a bit weird.
So I checked it out and then looked at a few other helpful tips and such while there. In particular there were a few houses that would not get back in game through the launcher. It wasn't the launcher, it was the sims3pack files themselves. The tip was to convert them to .package files and add them to the library. My lots have been recovered, thankfully. I saved them fresh, with a few minor adjustments because I built them ages ago and deleted the library files of the old ones. I am just soo relieved that when I remove the old ones, I still have them. I'll probably retweak them, but soo happy! |
