Feathergolde Isles: Download-A-Settler! (Gen. 1)
I've had these packaged and zipped up on my desktop for about a month now, and I'm finally uploading. I decided I may as well share Feathergolde's gen. 1, since the second generation are all starting out now. It's taken me this long because I couldn't be bothered taking pictures for it, but then, I realised: WHO GIVES A CRAP? I HAVE A TONNE OF PICTURES ANYWAY HAHAHAHA RECYCLING. So, after lots of hunting, I found some of my favourite pictures from the first three weeks.
Descriptions are copypasta'd from the original introduction post and small pictures are clickable for enlarged versions.
Esme Butterworth was a rich businessman's daughter who longed for a simpler world, free of corruption, greed and environmental disregard. People said that she was away with the fairies, that she was new to the world and stupid for trying to change a system which was unchangeable. So, she decided to prove them wrong. She put in an advertisement in the local paper seeking adventurous souls wishing to seek a better life for themselves and their descendants.

The first person to respond to the advert was Caolan Golde. Golde certainly would not be the most likely person to decide to take on an adventure. However, the red-haired, easily-burnt, pale, nature-fearing indoor person felt it was his only choice. As a Knowledge sim, he was always reading astronomy books and peering through his many telescopes, until one night, a mysterious woman appeared in his home, covered in strange markings and constantly exercising her curious enthusiasm for all things worldly.

She called herself Sybil and at first, Caolan tried to pass her off as his cousin from out of town. However, her constant prodding and questioning of his friends, her complete lack of physical similarities to him and her peculiar accent began to become very suspicious. So, he decided to leave, and take her away to a place where nobody would ask questions, where she could adapt to mundane life and live in an environment where she would not be hunted.

Next came Reuben Strauss. He had lived a lifestyle of wild parties and bulging contact books, but one day discovered that he wasn't so important anymore. He stopped being hired as a Professional Party Guest and people lost interest in his anecdotes which were fast running out. Realising that he could no longer support his party lifestyle with his quickly diminishing income, he decided to make a new life for himself.

Celandine O'Hara was a geographer studying at the local university. Her studies caused her to realise how terrible city life was, and how much better and healthier it would be to live in a place with no fumes or environmental destruction. Part of her just wanted to study the new landscape. She offered her knowledge and services to Esme, and took up the post of environmental adviser and documenter of the local landscape, flora and fauna.

The last adventurer to sign up to the project was Frey Almstedt. Frey was brought up by loving parents in a small home, expected to grow up, find a job, marry and lead a happy life. However, he felt restrained by these expectations placed upon him by doting parents. Instead, he decided to leave. On a whim, he saw Esme's advert and he decided to go and seek his fortunes, like in all the books he had read as a child. He is hoping to make a name for himself as a pioneer, and be remembered for years to come.

They all have, to varying degrees, bits of Pooklet's face templates in them. I think I changed them enough to make it okay to upload, though. I think Esme, Caolan, and Celandine took the most work from me, but in any case, I don't care what you do with them. Play with them, use them as models, put them in legacies, BACCs and whatever else. I'd giggle so much if I saw one of them crop up as a townie somewhere... :P
And, of course, you don't need to put them in your game with the stats I gave them, but if you want to, here they are:
