The... Morgenrot Legacy?! Wot
I BLAME YOU ALL SRSLY OMFG TWO LEGACIES THIS IS GOING TO BE THE END OF ME D8
(I am totally loving this ignore me)
SURPRISE UPDATE OF DOOM! I don't have enough pictures for a Scallywag update, since I spent the weekend playing these guys and/or doing the DN photoshoot. BEHOLD!
Warnings: Gayness, language, copious amounts of yellow.
Image count: 130.
This here is the founder, Pollito Morgenrot. You may be asking yourself "WTF WAS SHE SMOKING WHEN SHE CAME UP WITH THIS NAME?", and this is why: "Pollito" is Spanish for "chick" (as in baby chicken), which is a yellow thing, and "Morgenrot" is, according to the internet, the German word for "Dawn", which has many many colours.
Y'see, the Morgenrot legacy is a mix-and-match combo of random challenges, mainly the Rainbow challenge (with slightly altered colours, because srsly what's the difference between Lime and Green other than the shade?), a side order of Pure Entrepreneur (I never use the OfB stuff so I figured this would be a nice way of putting that EP to good use), and a pinch of Awesomesauce. Because the Awesomesauce challenge has some requirements that clash with the Pure Entrepreneur (mainly requirements involving getting a job), I've only taken on some of the rules from there, and decided to throw my own into the mix, just to shake things up.
TL;DR THERE'S A MILLION THINGS GOING ON IN THIS LEGACY AND I'LL BE SURE TO INFORM YOU OF WHATEVER IT IS I NEED TO DO PER GENERATION.
We're starting the legacy with the colour YELLOW, and since it's only gen 1, the only requirement is that the founder has to max all his skills. Oh, and one more thing: Since everyone and their mother is doing a matriarchy (get it? Mother, matriarchy? ... I'll shut up now), I'm going to ~fight the system~ and do a patriarchy (male heirs only).
I'll probably be regretting this decision by about gen 3, but THE DECISION IS MADE I CANNOT TURN BACK etc.
Still here? You have more patience than me. Here is Pollito's yellow shack. It's actually surprisingly nice for a founder shack, at least to me, because most of my founders live in houses with no wallpaper and no floors until after marriage. The fact that I could afford to get him big windows astounds me.
It's not the most hygienic of shacks but since when does that matter anyway?
The only downside to all this luxury is that Pollito has quite literally no money left, and the fact that he's not allowed to get even an entry-level job is somewhat worrying.
Pollito does typical founder things while waiting for the welcome wagon to show up.
Nothing to see here.
Since he had no money to buy any of the work benches or the makeover chair, Pollito is stuck selling overpriced lemonade on the sidewalk. Hey, it's better than nothing, ok? :(
The welcome wagon arrives - all of them pixel_trade sims - and everyone ignores Pollito's sales pitch.
DUDE DON'T KICK MY FLAMINGO :(
Raquel: So why does your lemonade cost sixteen dollars? Isn't that a bit overpriced?
Pollito: It has a secret ingredient that only poor men know about - pay up and you'll see what I mean! :D
That was, unfortunately, all the money that he made that day. I don't think you can afford anything with $16 in the game, but I suppose it's still better than nothing...
A quick trip to some community lots resulted in nothing but teenage girls and an unfair amount of attractive men. This was the only adult female I ran across, but there's no way I'm tossing black hair into the legacy so early on, so she's a very BIG "maybe" at the mo'.
Pollito spent the rest of the night freestylin' on the sidewalk, but even though people liked his stuff, no one gave him a dime. Heartless, all of you >:|
THAT MONEY COULD'VE GONE INTO POLLITO'S POCKET, GODDAMMIT.
Dude, don't even think about it.
Hello there, founder from my other legacy who just so happens to be part of the richest family in the neighbourhood yet still refused to shell out any money >:|
All in all, no money was made :/
Time for Plan B!
Figures.
Aqua: TIME TO HARASS THE BROKE MAN >:D
Pollito: OH MY GOD WHAT HAPPENED TO MY LEMONADE?? D8
It's ok, baby. Sims are dumb, they'll buy it from you anyways.
Towel Girl: Wow, that drink has a very... distinctive smell. What's in it?
Pollito: It's a secret ingredient. Also alcohol. Sixteen bucks, please :D
Alcohol sells, what can I say?
Have I ever had a sim get visited by the Social Bunny so early on? ... I don't think so.
Pollito: WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY HOUSE, FURRY?! GTFO D:<
Pollito is a friendly guy, you know.
Mmmmm, who needs showers when you can just take sponge baths?
What? No, of course I didn't do this just so I could ogle his naked chest, what are you talking about?
So far, this dude is the only redhead I've come across in the 'hood. I really want either red or blond hair for generation two (whose colour is orange), and I've yet to see any female redheads prancing around.
This club has a surplus of attractive workers, but they're all men. This place is a nice haunt to have because Pollito doesn't have a phone, so even if he did meet a pretty redheaded female, it'd be nigh impossible to keep in contact with her, whereas the waiters are always here...
But they're all men.
Then again, when has that stopped me before? Corvus (redheaded waiter) will definitely be kept in mind.
Still nothing. You were just not cut out to be a rapper, Pollito.
Look! Progress! Pollito dug up some shiny thing from the beach and, after selling his toilet (who needs them anyway?), had enough money to buy a little table thing and a cash register! 8D
He had to put his flamingo on sale, but watev. Small price to pay.
He's... utter crap at working the cash register, but that's OK. It's not like he has that many customers anyway.
PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE, ASH D8
That's going to bruise quite nicely. The cash register ownage always entertains me.
Pollito: OUT OF MY HOUSE GODDAMN WHAT DO YOU FURRIES HAVE AGAINST ME D8<
MIRACLES, A FEMALE REDHEAD! Unfortunately, Pollito - people charmer that he is - totally ruined his chances with her in one go. She wanted to buy something. He didn't want to sell her anything.
Pollito: You don't expect me to like the broad, do you? Look at that necklace! WAY too high maintenance. Next, please :|
Lady: Excuse me?!
Pollito: You know, after seeing what this 'hood has to offer and realizing that I'm not getting any younger, you suddenly seem way more attractive than before! :D
I can tell you're mocking him. It's in your eyes. Stop it >:
OHOHOHOHOHOHO HELL YEAH MOTHERFUCKERS! >8D
Is this a sign of good things to come? I think so!
Now that he's not on the verge of bankruptcy, Pollito has more time to call over his friends. And by friends I mean Corvus. Because he's his only friend.
And you know what? Normally I stick with whatever gender pref ACR assigns (which, in Pollito's case, is women), but founders are the exception to my rule. They have less time to find spouses, so I step in if I have to. Turns out that these two have two bolts, so I say BLEH! to ACR and decide that Corvus is The One.
Besides, his surname is Kaufman(n), which is not only German and thus goes perfectly well with Pollito's Morgenrot, it also means Salesman/Merchant. TOTALLY MEANT TO BE.
Corvus might need some convincing, however.
Pollito: But I thought you liked me ;_;
Pollito: WELL THAT'S OKAY YOU DON'T NEED TO LOVE ME HOW ABOUT MOVING INTO MY BARELY HABITABLE SHACK, QUITTING YOUR JOB AND WALLOWING IN POVERTY WITH ME? 8D
Corvus: Fuck no! :D
I see you won't be easily convinced. Well, in that case...
Pollito: PLEASE MOVE IN WITH MEEEEEE I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO EXPRESSSSSS MY NEED FOR YOUR MONEYSSSSSSS
Pollito: BAD THINGS WILL HAPPEN IF YOU DOOOOOON'T LIKE MY TEETH GOING THROUGH MY JAAWWWWWW AND MOOOOOOOOORE D8
Corvus: ... It's so beautiful...
I have this feeling that Corvus is missing a couple of screws. I wonder why.
Corvus: Oh, baby, when you sing like that it gets me all hot and bothered... *BEDROOM EYES*
Corvus: My answer is Yes! LET'S WALLOW IN POVERTY, TOGETHER!
Corvus: Now RAVISH ME, YOU DELICIOUS MALE SPECIMEN
WHOOO! Being a waiter pays in The Sims 8Db
It was hard to tell before but DAMN Corvus is a sexy bitch. It's too bad that he has a career LTW, because he can't fulfill it (neither can Pollito, for that matter).
PS: All the money that he brought? Spent on enlarging the house and the shop. They now have $42. I'm not very good at saving money, am I?
You know, being able to control Corvus feels magnificent after playing an ISBI legacy. They're just so... productive! 8D
CRAB ATTACK!
You should've attacked its weak point for massive damage.
Urgh, I was hoping that Corvus would have some sort of badge under his belt, but he has none, so he's just as terrible as Pollito at using the cash register DX
Don't get me wrong, they're both fantastic salesmen. It's the technology part that kills them :/
WHOOOOO! 8D I hear that this brings more clientele. EXCELLENT.
(PS: Himmel is the name of the lot, if you were confused)
Also, kaching! Funny, despite the fact that they seem to be making a lot of money, I always manage to spend it and leave the boys with like $200. I don't even know what I spent the cash on :/
A lot of it went into buying the toy bench (as well as the flower arranging bench, not seen here). Time to put controllable sims to good use! 8D
Corvus: Oh, er, money? I, uhm, okay. Where does it go...?
Corvus: HURK
Corvus: I'm sorry, mistress! Please don't punish me again D8
Pollito: So I should check this box here? No, wait, that's not right...
... You're just restocking one daisy bouquet. This should not require so much concentration.
How to properly eat a Grilled Cheese Sandwich: By Pollito Morgenrot
Step 1: Bite into the sandwich.
Step 2: Set it on the plate.
Step 3: Set the plate upside-down on your leg. It's a relaxing position, and you don't have to worry about dropping your sandwich!
Somewhere in between making toys/bouquets, selling them, and getting enough sleep, they managed to sex it up. Funny, I always thought Pollito would be bottom. Oh well.
And after five million tries (no, seriously - they took a day off from "work" and basically spent all day having sex, all because they refused to get pregnant), we get a pop! And also a wonky-ass mesh not meant for Mpreg. This must be fixed.
... Fuck.
Frankly, I think Corvus is the last sim that would run around flaunting his (bi)sexuality, but it's the only yellow man-ternity outfit I have :/
Corvus: ... It's a crab.
Corvus: OW JESUS D8
Corvus: I hate nature D:<
Drop the smile, Herr Kaufman. Babies very rarely mean good things for romance sims such as yourself.
Is it just me, or does Pollito look kind of gigantic? :|
They were actually very agreeable pregnant sims. I didn't make them work (I've tried playing businesses with pregnant sims before and the two just don't mix), so instead Pollito got some paintings done (both of them worth less than one flower bouquet, which can be made much faster, but that's beside the point), and Corvus got some mechanical skills to help with the toy-making. All in all, not bad.
Which is why I'm skipping to the birth! There really was nothing worth capping during their pregnancies.
Aaaaand it's a girl. With S3, because as we know, my game is fucking racist and refuses to give me S4 babies EVEN WHEN I DELIBERATELY CREATE AN S4 FOUNDER. Stupid game. Anyways, her name is Chakra, because wikipedia claims that there's an orange chakra in Hinduism. At this point I realized that I never got Corvus and Pollito married, meaning her surname is actually Kaufman, but it doesn't really matter since she's not in the running for heir anyway.
A couple of hours later results in more birth pains.
Whoa. Natural twins! No cheesecake OR Trips and Quads hack went into this :o
Which is all well and good, except my game spewed two S3 babies at me. Here is where I yelled "FUCK YOU", flipped my monitor the finger, and exited without saving. It's a rainbow legacy, I'm allowed to cheat all I want.
Round two offered us a boy named TNT, whose saving grace is his blond hair,
And his twin brother, sporting the elusive S4 skintone, named Dorito. Yay, two possible heirs!
Jesus Christ, people! My sims never get bitten by crabs, yet the one family that actually needs to dig around for stuff to sell gets harassed 24/7. Wtf.
The store keeps growing, which is nice because there's more income, but bad because now there's actual line-ups, and neither Corvus nor Pollito have figured out how to use Lady Register.
Pollito: Please be patient! Don't go to Wal-Mart! Support your local stores and all that! D8
There's this thing called a bed, guys. It's generally more comfortable to sex on than a couch. And comes with the added benefit of NOT traumatizing your children!
Pollito: EXCUSE ME, THIS ROOM IS FILLED WITH DIRTY DIAPERS I /DO/ /NOT/ /WANT/ /TO/ /BE/ /HERE/ RIGHT NOW D:<
The house is... extremely disgusting at the moment. Since I need to manage the adults' time so they can open up the store, taking care of the babies is extremely efficient... except that no one ever cleans. The house is littered with bottles and dirty diapers DX
And just look at those counters! They're practically spawning an ecosystem of their own by now DX
And now it's time for some toddlers! Frankly, I find that toddlers are way messier than infants, so this does not make me a happy camper.
Corvus is just as excited as I am.
Corvus: I'LL BE HAPPY AFTER SOMEONE CLEANS THIS FUCKING PLACE JESUS CHRIST
Interesting choice in hairstyle, I must say.
Corvus: Wait, I thought we only had one girl??
Nooooo Dorito, don't do iiiiit--
Dorito: My luscious locks sense a disturbance in my nethers.
DX
Much as the luscious locks amused me, they had to go. Dorito gets a more believable makeover. I don't have any orange toddler clothes (or, you know, the money to buy them), so the colour-coding will have to wait until the babies are at least children.
Next up, TNT.
More luscious locks? Are you kids trying to tell me something already?
Pollito: *Shoves the entire cake into the sink*
Corvus: EXCUSE ME, WTF ARE YOU DOING TO ONE OF OUR FEW SOURCES OF CLEAN WATER? D8
Corvus: I'm just... going to pretend I didn't see that.
Pollito: Speaking of clean water, someone needs to wash that kid NOW! X|
Corvus: HOW VERY CONVENIENT THAT I'M THE ONE HOLDING HIM, ISN'T IT?! You are so washing the other one! >:|
Pollito: He's so hot when he's pissed >:D *Totally annoys him on purpose*
You little brat >:|
TNT's luscious locks also get chopped off. All that hair must be doing wonders to the drains in the house. Corvus, as you can see, is extremely pleased with the new state of the washroom.
Pollito: 'Scuse me, I need to use the sink.
Corvus: WHERE are you planning to put that cake?! OhgodwhatwasIthinkingwhenImovedinwithhim??
Corvus: You expect me to live like this? SERIOUSLY?! D8
Aren't you happy you were born into this family? :D
Pollito: Before helping the last baby grow up, may I just comment on the HORRIFYING STATE OF THIS HOUSE?!
Yes! I get it! The maid is coming tomorrow, for chrissakes!
Buh? Wasn't she a redhead? oO
TNT: Daddy, all of my lower body burns! Give me a bath, please?? D8
Corvus: Wat
Corvus: The house is a pigsty and you're asking me for BATHS?! HOW UNREASONABLE D:<
Dorito: WHEEEEEEE I LOVE MAKING MESSES! 8DDDD
TNT: But daddy, I'm behaving! I'm a good boy! Please! D8
Dorito: ... Now that you mention it, my lower half kind of burns a little, too D8
TNT: We're doomed
Hey, what do you know? Corvus comes through in the end!
Dorito: OH GOD ME TOO PLEASE WAHHHHHH DDDX
Pollito: Jesus Harold Christ, these things are annoying >:|
Corvus: Yeah, really. Think we can sell them in our shop?
Pollito: You want to sell them? ... But they're so cute >:
:(
Here's Chakra, btw. She got chucked in a crib as soon as I fixed her hair, which is why she avoided the capslock situation in the washroom.
Chakra: BATHE ME
Pollito: Dammit, I thought you were the quiet one :((((
Pollito: Corvus? Corvus, what do I do? :(
Corvus: ARE YOU SERIOUSLY TELLING ME THAT I'M THE ONLY COMPETENT ADULT IN THIS HOUSE
Pollito: Corvus... Corvus, help :(
Corvus: *EYE TWITCH* *EYE TWITCH* >:| ...

A/N: If you read my other legacy, don't worry: I haven't dropped it! This was just one of those things that I had the urge to start, and since I got some encouragement from a few readers, decided to go for it. I'll have to figure out a way to balance my PB accounts between both legacies, but other than that, it's business as usual. There might be an update around the 15th or so :D
Thank you for reading!
PS: I made Pollito in Bodyshop, meaning he's one of those rare sims I can actually package on my own. If anyone wants him, give me a shout and I'll put him up!
(I am totally loving this ignore me)

And now it's time for some toddlers! Frankly, I find that toddlers are way messier than infants, so this does not make me a happy camper.
Corvus is just as excited as I am.
Corvus: I'LL BE HAPPY AFTER SOMEONE CLEANS THIS FUCKING PLACE JESUS CHRIST
Interesting choice in hairstyle, I must say.
Corvus: Wait, I thought we only had one girl??
Nooooo Dorito, don't do iiiiit--
Dorito: My luscious locks sense a disturbance in my nethers.
DX
Much as the luscious locks amused me, they had to go. Dorito gets a more believable makeover. I don't have any orange toddler clothes (or, you know, the money to buy them), so the colour-coding will have to wait until the babies are at least children.
Next up, TNT.
More luscious locks? Are you kids trying to tell me something already?
Pollito: *Shoves the entire cake into the sink*
Corvus: EXCUSE ME, WTF ARE YOU DOING TO ONE OF OUR FEW SOURCES OF CLEAN WATER? D8
Corvus: I'm just... going to pretend I didn't see that.
Pollito: Speaking of clean water, someone needs to wash that kid NOW! X|
Corvus: HOW VERY CONVENIENT THAT I'M THE ONE HOLDING HIM, ISN'T IT?! You are so washing the other one! >:|
Pollito: He's so hot when he's pissed >:D *Totally annoys him on purpose*
You little brat >:|
TNT's luscious locks also get chopped off. All that hair must be doing wonders to the drains in the house. Corvus, as you can see, is extremely pleased with the new state of the washroom.
Pollito: 'Scuse me, I need to use the sink.
Corvus: WHERE are you planning to put that cake?! OhgodwhatwasIthinkingwhenImovedinwithhim??
Corvus: You expect me to live like this? SERIOUSLY?! D8
Aren't you happy you were born into this family? :D
Pollito: Before helping the last baby grow up, may I just comment on the HORRIFYING STATE OF THIS HOUSE?!
Yes! I get it! The maid is coming tomorrow, for chrissakes!
Buh? Wasn't she a redhead? oO
TNT: Daddy, all of my lower body burns! Give me a bath, please?? D8
Corvus: Wat
Corvus: The house is a pigsty and you're asking me for BATHS?! HOW UNREASONABLE D:<
Dorito: WHEEEEEEE I LOVE MAKING MESSES! 8DDDD
TNT: But daddy, I'm behaving! I'm a good boy! Please! D8
Dorito: ... Now that you mention it, my lower half kind of burns a little, too D8
TNT: We're doomed
Hey, what do you know? Corvus comes through in the end!
Dorito: OH GOD ME TOO PLEASE WAHHHHHH DDDX
Pollito: Jesus Harold Christ, these things are annoying >:|
Corvus: Yeah, really. Think we can sell them in our shop?
Pollito: You want to sell them? ... But they're so cute >:
:(
Here's Chakra, btw. She got chucked in a crib as soon as I fixed her hair, which is why she avoided the capslock situation in the washroom.
Chakra: BATHE ME
Pollito: Dammit, I thought you were the quiet one :((((
Pollito: Corvus? Corvus, what do I do? :(
Corvus: ARE YOU SERIOUSLY TELLING ME THAT I'M THE ONLY COMPETENT ADULT IN THIS HOUSE
Pollito: Corvus... Corvus, help :(
Corvus: *EYE TWITCH* *EYE TWITCH* >:| ...

A/N: If you read my other legacy, don't worry: I haven't dropped it! This was just one of those things that I had the urge to start, and since I got some encouragement from a few readers, decided to go for it. I'll have to figure out a way to balance my PB accounts between both legacies, but other than that, it's business as usual. There might be an update around the 15th or so :D
Thank you for reading!
PS: I made Pollito in Bodyshop, meaning he's one of those rare sims I can actually package on my own. If anyone wants him, give me a shout and I'll put him up!
