The Felstead Legacy 1.0
I'm going to start this one out with the whopping four pictures I took before I decided to start recording the legacy. Hopefully this entry will be enough for you to get to know our founder, Bertie Felstead and his wife Noelle with a sneaky glimpse of gen. 2 as well!
This is Bertie meeting Noelle. Bertie is the chap in the teaser, of course. His stats:
Family/Fortune sim with a LTW to become education minister. He likes blonde and red haired girls but doesn't like black hair. Because I wanted genetic diversity. Though as you'll see, I didn't know about rolling the pacifier so they all look like Bertie anyway. D'oh.
Sloppy/neat: 5
Shy/outgoing: 8
Lazy/active: 6
Serious/playful: 3
Grouchy/nice: 3
I don't know what the sucky nice points are about. He's a doll.
Noelle post-makeover. She cleaned up good!
Pop no. 1 with baby no 1. I forgot to marry them so this one isn't in the running to be heir. Sorry Edward!
Last picture that I took before all the kids moved to college (I know, I suck). This is George bullying Elizabeth, as he does so often. George is the dickhead of the family - all the other kids have pretty high nice points and get along, but George hates everyone and everyone hates George.
The Felsteads live here - I'm not much of a builder, sorry. I'm too OCD about symmetry and I can't figure roofs out at all. Feel free to leave tips :3
I do like the little balcony.
With the utter horror that was quadruplets, entertainment and décor did not have the highest priority in the Felstead house. All the money went on cribs and I went slowly mad.
Bertie likes to chat to his daughter, Elizabeth, while she's at college.
Bertie: Magic sucks.
Bertie: Except when it's getting me laid! Hey, let me tell you how I met your mother.
Awkward, Bertie.
Noelle shares her husband's grace and tact.
Noelle: I *love* my own brew.
Noelle's stats:
Knowledge/family sim with a LTW to become a prestidigitator. What? She likes fit, athletic guys but doesn't like men with glasses.
Sloppy/neat: 9
Shy/outgoing: 2 (omfg so cute when she's shy)
Lazy/active: 6
Serious/playful: 3
Grouchy/nice: 5
Bertie smells, is hungry, and doesn't want to be in the business career. Sorry Bertie, we need money.
...which is why I'm putting you to work digging for treasure.
Bertie dug up a Song dynasty vase. He wanted to give it to Noelle but I told him to go fuck himself and buy some shit for the house.
Yay, counters and appliances that work!
Noelle got a new sweater because I felt bad about selling her present.
She also started the entertainment career track and had to wear this. *snigger*
With Bertie and Noelle at work, I decided to spend the long hours scouting walkbys for potential gene donors.
No.
No.
Hmm!
What's this? Also, I don't know why the kitchen looks so shit in all pictures.
Yes, it's poor Bertie's birthday already! I will make sure there's plenty of him and Noelle when the heir moves home so you guys can get to know him better.
George (possible heir 1) shows up and promptly starts being a wanker.
Yes, he jeered while Bertie was growing old :/
But how cute is Bertie!
Elizabeth (possible heir 2) approves!
George is horrible to everyone and as a result the party stinks. Thanks, George.
Also...
Noelle gets electrocuted...
Walkby rages for no apparent reason...
And Daphne finds Bertie extremely unattractive. Daphne, I give no fucks.
Next up: Generation 2 at college, heir poll and I install ACR so probably a lot of promiscuity ^_^
