Not So Berry Challenge 2.0

We’ve all heard of the Not So Berry Challenge created by @lilsimsie and @alwaysimming

Since completing this challenge not once, but TWICE- I’ve decided to create a 2.0 version that uses more of the gameplay that has been introduced in new packs since this challenge was created years ago.

Still ten generations based on different colors. In my own version, the traits, storyline, aspiration, and career for each generation are based on the meanings behind each color rather than the color itself.

Please keep in mind that I did not create this original challenge, but the challenge rules remain the same. The challenge rules have been copied and pasted from the original challenge which I will also post a link for. 

https://lilsimsie.tumblr.com/post/157671494755/not-so-berry-legacy-challenge

Basic Rules:

Each heir must represent the color of the generation (i.e. hair, makeup, clothing), but brightly colored skin is not necessary (these aren’t actually berry Sims, that’s the joke). Of course, this is optional but a big portion of the fun.

The colors of the spouses don’t matter as they aren’t part of the challenge. Unless otherwise stated you can do whatever you please with them.

Money cheats can be used, but not excessively. Suggestion: use freerealestate for your first home, but no cheats afterward.

You may live wherever you please unless something is specified in the rules of a generation.

Every generation is supposed to complete both the career and aspiration of the heir unless explicitly stated otherwise.

Keep the lifespan on normal.

I convinced him that he's a sentimonster, I convinced him to kiss Nino, I convinced him to date Alya, Nino, and Marinette at the same time, I convinced him to ask Chat Noir out, I convinced him to want to marry them all, and now.... the final stretch..... the final test of my skill...........

[jamiestar2099]

just remembered about that line lool

[jamiestar2099]

WHO WAS THIS??!!?!?

They seem to have horns and wings and sound male... Is it the ghost of King’s dad, since the show alluded to him being still aware in some capacity!!! Did he mutually trap himself in here with the Collector, and when the Collector was freed so was he, but left behind here?! Or this another Collector?! And/or a Titan Trapper, the one in the murals?!

EDIT:

IT HIM!!! You can see the big beard and everything, the scruff of fur... He recognizes Luz and waves!!! 🥺🥺🥺 The girl who listened to his son and made him feel like he belonged, so he gave her the glyphs!!!

[jamiestar2099]

WE CALLED IT?!?!

Looks like the portal in led them to where Eda found the portal door. If so, this further supports the popular theory that Evelyn was a Clawthorne ancestor.

It always surprises me how expressive Hunter is, given the way he was raised. He was a soldier after all, a weapon, Belos' right hand man.

And then I remember that he used to wear a mask all the time. He wouldn't have had to control his expressions at all.

So without it? He really wears his feelings on his sleeve. Something that could have been easily exploited in the Emperor's Coven and probably was.

[jamiestar2099]

After 2 weeks of work related activities, I CAN FINALLY HUNTLOW IN PEACE-! (Tired and body's still achin' but still-!) In the mean time, please have this sketches- 😂

[jamiestar2099]

omfg I just realized 

he’s coming 

[jamiestar2099]

Whatever you do, don’t think about the adults in the moments before the Collector stopped the draining spell.

Don’t picture Darius, lying on a the platform surrounded by all the other Coven heads, seeing the regret on their faces and knowing it’s too late. Don’t think about the bitter thought of ‘I told you so’ that flits across his mind as the pain gets worse and worse until he can barely think. Don’t imagine him lifting his cape and allowing Eber to crawl under, finding a little comfort in their presence because at least they tried, and at least they’re dying together. And whatever you do, don’t think about him trying and failing to claw himself back to consciousness because he can hear Hunter crying his name, and there’s nothing he wants more than to go to him.

Don’t think about Lilith, helpless below her friends, unable to help. Unable to even fight it as her body begins to decay. Don’t think about the fact that she had to watch Katya and Derwin dying with her and hear the screams of her sister from above, left to do nothing but wonder if there was something she could have done. If she had only seen the light sooner, if she hadn’t wasted so many years of her life helping this monster, would they still be here? Would her sister be home with her children, maybe with Raine? Would these young witches with their whole lives ahead of them still be dying with her? And definitely don’t think about Hooty, watching helplessly from his little prison as his best friend begins to crumble to dust. 

Don’t think about Steve, trapped up on the airship with Amber. Don’t picture the moment of horrified realization when his sigil lights up, when they realize they’ve failed. Don’t imagine Steve, stumbling to the helm of the ship and trying in vain to point it in the direction of Hexside, trying to reach his little brother before it’s too late. And definitely don’t imagine the moment where he gives up hope, collapsing to the ground and fishing his scroll out of his pocket, using the last of his strength to send one last message. 

Don’t think about Dell Clawthorne, holding his wife’s hand in the moments before the Day of Unity. Don’t imagine his horror when she cries out in pain and collapses into his arms, the brand on her wrist sucking the life out of her. Don’t imagine him kneeling there, holding the love of his life in his lap as she dies, and don’t picture him tilting his head to the sky, tears on his face, and praying for his daughters and grandchildren. 

Don’t think about Raine, collapsing to the ground up on the dais. Don’t imagine the thoughts running through their head, reminding them that they failed. Failed to protect their crew, failed to stop the Day of Unity- but at least they’d been able to save Eda. Whatever you do, don’t picture them curling up in her arms for the last time and closing their eyes, letting the world fade into blackness with a small smile on their face because at least she’s alive, and at least they get to go out in her arms. 

And don’t think about Eda. Eda, watching her entire world die around her, knowing she’d failed to save them. Don’t picture her, holding Raine close because that’s all she can do, because she can’t save their life or at least ease their pain, but she can hold them. Don’t think about her dwelling on the thoughts of her kids, and tearing up when she realizes that at least they’ll be ok (for how could she know). And whatever you do, don’t imagine her pressing a gentle kiss to Raine’s forehead, tears falling down onto their closed eyelids. Don’t imagine her hunched over them, holding them and doing her best to tune out the screams of the crowd, pretending they’re just on their hill. That they’re just napping in her lap as she strokes their hair, that they’ll wake up any minute. 

Don’t close your eyes and imagine her starting to brokenly hum. 

DISCLAIMER: THESE DETAILS ARE EMBELLISHED AND NOT NECESSARILY ACCURATE. I WAS LITERALLY JUST HAVING FEELS ABOUT THE IDEA OF EDA SINGING RAINE’S RHAPSODY TO A DYING RAINE AND IT RAN AWAY WITH ME. 

#at least they could go out in her arms #they could go out in her arm #she only has one arm now

[jamiestar2099]

Forever thinking about how Terra’s nickname for Raine (Sprout) portrays them as something small and easily crushed that needs careful nurturing, while Eda’s (Rainstorm) paints them as a powerful force of nature.

[jamiestar2099]

have some lanceys! :>

Anyone else feeling burnt out by streaming services because any time you start a show the company expects an immediate audience and a fucking worldwide campaign of support or they’ll cancel it.
