Moss Generation Challenge: Introduction

The time has came for The Maker to start telling a new tale. Why? Because, it's intricately connected with the Montgomery Family Legacy. 

If you're confused on who these two lovebirds are, I'd suggest you jump over to the Montgomery Legacy and pay close attention to the third generation. 

I won't take a lot of time explaining Ezra and Angelica but for those of you that are hopping right into this challenge, the short explanation is that my Legacy family heir needs to deliver a baby to get a promotion in the medical career.  Due to me playing with aging/story progression off...I have to have a sim actually become pregnant and go to the hospital to see if Jordan is on call.

Ezra is Jordan's (Legacy family's heir) brother and as he's a spare, it was decided by The Maker that he would get a girl pregnant so that his sister can achieve her dreams of becoming a doctor. 

Having said that, Ezra and his wifey have been chosen to participate in the Generation Challenge (with a few modifications by me)

Let's hop right into these rules that you can find here:

Your journey begins in Create a Sim (CAS). - N/A I'm breaking this rule and using my spare heir.

  Start by picking an empty 30x20 lot. This is not your forever home, you will be assigned to move later in the game (optional). It should cost your sim 2,000 simoleons. -N/A as I refuse to make a new game and have no open 30x20 lots. They've been placed in a 20x20. I also bought a very simple starter home leaving my sims only $2000 left in the bank. This is a liberty I took because...I'm the Maker and I can do what I like in my game. Deal with it ;)

Heir Factors (I'm showing only those I've chosen)

Gender

• Equality- Heirs can be either male or female.

Blood

• Blood Relation- Direct descendant of the parents, unless there are no living blood relation children.

Heir

• Youngest- The youngest child is the heir.

Rules

1. No restarting after a bad event. Quitting after a bad event also gets rid of all the good ones. See how you can fix the mistakes!
2. No cheats/mods that make give you an unfair advantage. It ruins the fun and also makes it not as a challenge as it should be.
3. No bringing the dead back, you CAN plead the with the reaper though and have ghosts, but nothing else.
4. Anti-aging potion can only be used once per generation.
5. You can only have one played household in the world. You can add households in the world for friends, but not spouses.  -N/A this doesn't fit my play style and I'm not adhering to this regulation
6. You can’t move out the heir. Once they are elders you can do whatever you would like with them, but you can move out the spares (kids who aren't heirs).

Spouse
When getting married Sims can bring in money, but not so much that it would be like using cheats. If your spouse has a child when you marry them in, then that child MUST move in with your spouse. If that child moves in as anything younger than a teen, it CAN become an heir as long as it fits along the guidelines.

After awhile the dating pool starts to deplete and you CAN bring in some households from the gallery or make them in CAS. Use a random trait generator for the traits. The only rule on doing that is it can have no more than 4 sims in the household. If you would like to help out with the households upload them with the hashtag #MakeAGeneration.  --I may or may not follow this rule. We'll see. The reason being, if the children are the ones to complete the goals, I fail to see how it matters what or who the spouse is. Again, I don't really play with NPCs anyway.


Children
Children no matter if they are the heir or not, can be introduced into the family through pregnancy or adoption. If a child is adopted they must be an infant. If you are adopting a child their last name must be the same as the family who adopted them. When picking the child's trait and aspiration it must have one similar trait to the mother or father, ex: good trait to charismatic or evil to mean, the two other traits are completely up to you. The aspiration can be anything you believe fit to the child's personality. You MAY NOT influence gender. Any Sim that is abducted by aliens and becomes pregnant has a choice of keeping the child, the child counts as adopted and with whatever your heir rules are may or may not become an heir.

Generations and Generation Challenges
Generation challenges are the mini-challenges that you have to complete before you finish the generation. You have to complete at least 4 of the 5 before the original parent of the generation dies AND the heir grows into a young adult. If your heir is the first born you have less time to complete the challenges ahead.

Each generation is a little bit different, from the challenges, to the entire personality of the children in it. The challenges may grow harder, or may grow easier. You DO NOT have to do the challenges in order. With each expansion pack or game pack there will be a replacement generation where you can carry out the challenge with that generation instead of the one originally listed. If you pick to use the replacement generation and still complete the original generation you will only score with the first 10 generations of children.
