Who's Who in Regalton - Generation four.
If generation three was where I fell in love with the family and started to introduce plot, generation four was where I hit my stride and started telling a story, rather than writing a legacy. Or at least I like to think so anyway. I certainly started to push myself as a writer, even if it meant make nasty things happen to sims I loved.

Generation four:
Alexandra Allyn Smith (nee Legacy).
Spare.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => William + Beth => Alexandra).
The first born of generation four, Alexandra was a spoilt and demanding child and teenager, but that bold front hid a very vulnerable young woman, who just wanted to be loved. She latched onto the first boy to show an interest in her (Joe Grundstorm) like her life depended on it, ignoring the obvious signs that he wasn't interested in her back. Long story short, he decided that Alexandra would make a willing wife and proposed. things ended disastrously when he left her at the altar, and to make matters worse, she was pregnant.
Thankfully, Anthony Smith had been in love with her for ages, and asked her to marry him. She agreed, but it was many months before she came to realise that she adored him back. Their marriage is very loving and passionate, and Alexandra couldn't be happier. She has embraced her roles as society hostess, wife and mother completely and adores her life.
Sir Anthony James Percival Smith Bt.
Spare's husband.
Technically Anthony's name is the Honourable Anthony James Percival Fotherington-Smythe, but he prefers to to be known as plain old Mr Smith. Anthony is from a very rich family, but prefers to live in the family town house in Simdon to the rambling estate in Simbridgeshire. He fell in love with Alexandra soon after meeting her, and tried very hard to make Joe stop stringing her along.
He tried to offer her support when Joe left her, and as soon as he discovered her pregnancy, he put his plan to court her into action far earlier than he had intended. Though he was happy when she married him, he was still unsure as to her feelings for him for a long while. He now knows she loves him as much as he loves her.
Because he is so awesome, Anthony has always treated Joe's children as his own, and although he understood why Alexandra did it, he was slightly hurt when she suggested that Joe be given the chance to get to know his children. He was more than slightly relieved that Joe didn't want anything to do with them.
Joe Grundstrom.
Spare's ex-fiance.
Joe became entangled with Alexandra as a teenager and found it difficult to tell her that he didn't feel the same way that she obviously felt about him. His cowardice and selfish thought about getting his mother off of his back, meant that he decided that if he desired her and he Alexandra was going to make a man a good wife, that man might as well be him. He therefore ignored his conscience and proposed to her.
However, at the wedding, he decided that he couldn't go through with his plan and left her standing at the altar, but not before he had given into his desire and bedded her. He was shocked to learn some time later, that his night with Alexandra had resulted in twins, but he deferred to his mother's judgement and refused to see them.
He is now married to Rachel, again at the behest of his mother.
Rachel Grundstrom (nee Sullivan).
Joe's wife.
Poor Rachel, ended up married to Joe after his mother pushed for the union. She agreed to it, for a couple of reasons: she knew that she was a rather horsey looking woman who was nearing thirty and thus suitors were think on the ground. In addition, her father had been investigated for embezzlement, and with such a tarnished reputation, she couldn't afford to be picky.
However, don't feel too sorry for her. She is making the best out of the situation.
Edward George Legacy.
Fourth generation heir.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => William + Beth => Edward).
Eddie is a very smiley, easy going sim, but he felt the pressure to find a suitable wife and carry on the family line immensely. As a result he decided he was in love with the first woman who showed any romantic interest in him. That was not a good idea, as his wife turned out to be only after the position of legacy spouse, having no interest in supporting or being part of the family. He became increasingly unhappy in his marriage, but it wasn't until he walked in to find his youngest son distressed and dirty, while Marielle was in the bedroom with a lover, that he was able to take action and divorce her.
He has tried to be as good a father to his two sons as he can be, and Bertie especially idolises him. He has also found love again with a friend he has known for years, Carmen Leong.
Carmen Legacy (nee Leong).
Legacy Spouse.
Originally from Takemizu Village, she was orphaned when there was a terrible earthquake which killed hundreds. She spent the rest of her childhood and the early part of her teens in an orphanage, before being adopted by Jonathan and Jennicor Tricou. The Tricous weren't the best of parents. They adopted, not because they wanted to give their new children a loving home, but rather because such an act of charity must surely reflect favourably on themselves. Therefore, the teenagers they adopted from around the world, ended up being neglected by the Tricous as they swanned off, around the globe, looking for the next child to adopt
Despite this, Carmen couldn't be more different to her predecessor. Kind, and loving, she has embraced the role of Legacy souse with open arms, despite the fact that it is a position she never wanted. She became especially close to Beth, as the two of them tended to the house and the social obligations that go along with being the wife of the head of the family. Carmen was especially happy to spend time in the garden with Beth.
She was also surprised and delighted to be able to give Eddie a daughter, despite the fact that she was far older than most women were when expecting their first child.
Marielle Legacy (nee Hutchins).
Ex-Legacy spouse, mother of Albert and Stuart.
I know there are many of you who think that Marielle's blurb should literally read "she sucks" and that's it, but no. more needs to be said about her. Like Gabe she grew up in the Nickel, in poverty. Her mother (Mary) was a prostitute who died of syphilis. Mary tried very hard to keep a roof over her and her daughter's head and food on the table, She also tried to help Marielle realise that she would never escape from her upbringing.
Marielle didn't believe that at all, and vowed to one day lead the life she dreamed of. Normally that would be very admirable, but the way in which Marielle went about realising her dream was not. One of the many things she did was help Henry try to kill William, something the family still doesn't know about.
Her ambition led her to Eddie, and, despite the fact that she didn't even like him, she decided that she would marry him. Once she was legacy spouse, she refused to take on the duties she didn't like the sound of, leaving them to her elderly mother-in-law instead, showing everyone how selfish she really is. As for her relationship with her sons, indifferent is probably the best way to describe it. She doesn't love them, but she also doesn't dislike them, she really has no feelings for them and it will take an earth-shattering event to change that.
Elle Ruben (nee Legacy).
Cousin (adopted).
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Charlotta + Hannah).
Charlotta and Hannah's adopted daughter, Elle is softly spoken and calm. Her memories of travelling the world with her mothers are some of her most precious and make her want to travel with her own family.
Joshua Ruben.
Cousin's husband.
Joshua dropped out of Sim State to take what he thought was the job of a lifetime. It wasn't but he sticks with it to provide for his family.
Theodore Abhijeet Harrison.
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Enid + Frederick => Theodore).
(Thomas + Jayani => Frederick + Enid => Theodore).
One of Eddie's best friends, he is more like a brother than a cousin to him. Intelligent, good looking, kind and totally unaware of the effect he has on women, it took his grandfather locking him up in a house for a week with seven women, before he found the love of his life. Him and Doc have been very, very happy ever since, and have twin boys Peter and Andrew.
Always scientifically minded, Theo became an astronomer, following an abduction as a teenager. As an adult, Theo was tricked into riding a gyroscopic device by Kevin Lum and Nawwaf Lew. His abduction from that, resulted in the birth of his daughter Celestia, whom everyone in the family loves, because she is awesome.
DrSupremeNerd Harrison (nee Simself).
Cousin's wife.
Writer of the awesome Vetinari Dualegacy, DrSupremeNerd's simself was the undisputed winner of Theo's bachelor challenge. SimNerd still stalks her Nummy Theo as much as she did in the BC, and they're very happy.
She is also a wonderful mother to their three children, and both her and Theo are already trying to get their children interested in science by taking them to the museums in Simdon.
Stanley George Legacy.
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Robert + Cecilia => Stanley).
The third of the boys, Stanley, Theo and Eddie are as close as brothers. Stanley has a small problem where he falls in love with every woman he meets. He thinks each and every one is perfect, and he wants to woo them. He also has a lot of love for his family, and is often the first to notice that something isn't right with a family member.
There are times he is a complete pillock, and jerk, and Theo and Eddie will call him on it, but none of his girlfriends, many of whom are simselves, care.
Victoria Rose Simself (nee Legacy).
Spare.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => William + Beth => Victoria).
The baby of the main family, Vicky has never been comfortable with the role society demands of her as a wife and mother, she always wanted to be known and appreciated as an individual in her own right. A very perceptive person, she is getting her chance to shine as an enquiry agent with her cousin Rosemary. After a shaky start, the agency is now building an impressive reputation.
Unfortunately her home life isn't doing quite so well. She married her childhood sweetheart and is finding it difficult to balance her burgeoning career with his demands that they start a family. The question is if they can find a balance before she feels trapped.
Patrick Simself.
Spare's husband.
The simself of Strangerhood7, who also seems to have left the community, Patty was Vicky's childhood sweetheart. Now they are married he is starting to pressure her to have children, rather than supporting her in her chosen career.
Rosemary Joan Go (nee Legacy).
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Robert + Cecilia => Rosemary).
Rosemary is very down to earth and has a knack for seeing things as they are. It's this, coupled with her intelligence and tenacity, that makes her the natural partner for Vicky in the enquiry agency.
She's very fond of her family, and is a total daddy's girl. she's also very close to her brother Stanley, who, being a good big brother, showed her how to defend her honour, something else that has come in handy at the agency.
Stephan Go.
Cousin's husband.
A very gentle and shy soul, Stephan never-the-less stood his ground when Stanley tried to warn him off dating his sister.
Louisa Marie Roseland (nee Harrison).
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Enid + Frederick => Louisa).
(Thomas + Jayani => Frederick + Enid => Louisa).
Although shy on paper, Louisa is very much her step-grandmother's granddaughter, and wishes her husband wouldn't treat her like porcelain during her pregnancy. Her determination and backbone has proved invaluable to her cousins with their enquiry agency.
Cyd Roseland.
Cousin's husband.
Cyd had always been a dreamer, and it was one of those dreams that caused him to walk out of his parent's house at eighteen. As soon as he met Louisa though, that changed and he decided to settle down in Simdon. He hasn't given up on all his dreams though, just the more ridiculous ones His marriage was also the catalyst for him to get back in contact with his parents.
He does have a tendency to worry too much about his wife though, especially when she is pregnant.
Sophia Nadira Boyle (nee Turner)
(Thomas + Jayani => Catherine + Jonathan => Sophia).
Sophia unfortunately annoyed me by wishing at the well and getting a man with the same face as her father. She is also extremely boring and included here only because she is Theo and Louisa's cousin.
Aren Boyle.
Sophia's husband.
Ex-streaker, I would probably like him if he didn't have the same face as his father-in-law.
Timothy Norman Legacy.
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Henry + Aphrodita => Timothy).
Growing up in a simself house for his formative years had a very positive affect on Timothy. He despises what his father did, and is determined not to turn out like him. All in all he is a good boy, a real sweetie. He is betrothed to Lauri Simself.
Lauri Legacy (nee Simself).
Cousin's wife.
The writer of a Legacy of Jubilee, Lauri has always thought that Timothy is a good boy. She's now getting to find out how good he is, as well as learning how to deal with his slightly abrasive manner.
Gerald Arthur Skinner.
Second Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => Elizabeth + Arthur => Harold + Emmy => Gerald).
Veronica Skinner (nee Cormier).
Cousin's wife.
Married to Gerald, mother of Oscar.
Richard William Nosferatu.
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Anne + Mathias => Richard).
Richard still has no idea what he wants to do with his life, or who he wants by his side while he does that. What he does know though is that he doesn't want to share his parents' life-style.
Aiden Rusewicz.
Cousin's partner.
Jayani Violet Turner.
(Thomas + Jayani => Catherine + Jonathan => Jayani).
Far sweeter than her sister, she isn't in love with a man with her father's face, and so is my favourite Turner child.
Ernest Gabriel Skinner.
Second cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => Elizabeth + Arthur => Harold + Emmy => Ernest).
Amber Skinner (nee Stompl).
Cousin's wife.
Married to Ernest Skinner, mother of Jasper. Amber was also one of Stanley's girlfriends at university, until she decided that she didn't want to be one of many any more.
Florence Emily Gray (nee Nosferatu).
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Anne + Mathias => Florence).
The middle of Anne and Mathias's children, Florence is very family orientated and is the only one of the children who shows any interest in becoming a vampire.
Corbin Gray.
Cousin's husband.
A native of Takemizu Village, Corbin met Florence when he was visiting New Simbridge university. He moved to Regalton to be with her, but he is still getting used to the fact that his in laws and the two friends who live with them are all vampires. He skilfully changes the subject whenever Florence mentions becoming a vampire herself.
John Gabriel Legacy.
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Henry + Aphrodita => John).
Henry's favourite son and his heir. Henry was present for John's formative years and has certainly had an effect on him. The first chance he got, John put his father's portrait back on display in the drawing room of the Legacy society (it had been removed by Edward when he had moved in).
Abbey Legacy (nee Cox).
Cousin's wife.

Cousin.

Cousin
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => James + Claire => Lydia).
Another forgotten cousin, Lydia is easy going and gets on with everyone.
Vincent Kim.
Cousin's husband.
Husband to Lydia. Yep I finally found her someone who wasn't Bertie.
Alfred Henry Legacy.
Cousin
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Henry + Aphrodita => Alfred).
Known to all as Alfie, Henry's youngest is his second favourite son. In many ways he encouraged competition between John and Alfred before choosing his heir. What Alfie thinks of all of this is a bit of a mystery as he very taciturn, and rather phlegmatic. He has however, been seen looking at different properties in Simdon lately, but why remains a mystery.
Audrey Legacy (nee Kalson)
Cousin's wife.
A former tutor at the Acadamie, she didn't realise things would be so difficult when she left to start a new life with Alfie.
Julia Elise Newson (nee Nosferatu).
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Anne + Mathias => Julia).
Anne's youngest may be her spitting image, but her temprament is the exact opposite. She is currently stepping out with Gavin Newson, but hasn't told her parents yet as she doesn't know how they will react to the fact that she is seeing such a poor person.
Gavin Newson
Cousin's Husband.
Ernest Steven Legacy.
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => Geroge + Allyn => Charles + Angela => Ernest).

Kind, caring, and playful Barty is very much his mother's son.
Eric Bradley Legacy.
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Charles + Angela => Eric).
Angela and Charles's son is another cutie, and was named Eric because I wanted an Eric and Ernie somewhere in the neighbourhood. He takes after his father a lot, but unlike his brother struggles with controlling his temper.
Amelia Emily Long.
Second cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => Violet + Thomas => Abigail + Shane => Amelia).
Amelia's a fun loving soul. If she had a sister instead of a brother, she'd probably throw a water balloon at her to stop her from reading so that she would play with her.
Stephanie Elizabeth Steele.
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Evelyn + Orlando => Stephanie).
The baby of the generation, Stephanie is very neat, very playful, nice and very, very outgoing.

The middle of Anne and Mathias's children, Florence is very family orientated and is the only one of the children who shows any interest in becoming a vampire.
Corbin Gray.
Cousin's husband.
A native of Takemizu Village, Corbin met Florence when he was visiting New Simbridge university. He moved to Regalton to be with her, but he is still getting used to the fact that his in laws and the two friends who live with them are all vampires. He skilfully changes the subject whenever Florence mentions becoming a vampire herself.
John Gabriel Legacy.
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Henry + Aphrodita => John).
Henry's favourite son and his heir. Henry was present for John's formative years and has certainly had an effect on him. The first chance he got, John put his father's portrait back on display in the drawing room of the Legacy society (it had been removed by Edward when he had moved in).
Abbey Legacy (nee Cox).
Cousin's wife.
Ruby Jane Zaidi (nee Legacy).
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Alfred + Marielle => Ruby).
One of the forgotten cousins, Ruby's a sweet girl who just wants to be loved. By everyone.
Sullivan Zaidi.
Cousin's Husband.
Just like his wife Ruby, Sullivan wants to be loved by everyone. Things might get interesting in their house (please).
Lydia Ruth Kim (nee Legacy).
Cousin
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => James + Claire => Lydia).
Another forgotten cousin, Lydia is easy going and gets on with everyone.
Vincent Kim.
Cousin's husband.
Husband to Lydia. Yep I finally found her someone who wasn't Bertie.
Alfred Henry Legacy.
Cousin
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Henry + Aphrodita => Alfred).
Known to all as Alfie, Henry's youngest is his second favourite son. In many ways he encouraged competition between John and Alfred before choosing his heir. What Alfie thinks of all of this is a bit of a mystery as he very taciturn, and rather phlegmatic. He has however, been seen looking at different properties in Simdon lately, but why remains a mystery.
Audrey Legacy (nee Kalson)
Cousin's wife.
A former tutor at the Acadamie, she didn't realise things would be so difficult when she left to start a new life with Alfie.
Julia Elise Newson (nee Nosferatu).
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Anne + Mathias => Julia).
Anne's youngest may be her spitting image, but her temprament is the exact opposite. She is currently stepping out with Gavin Newson, but hasn't told her parents yet as she doesn't know how they will react to the fact that she is seeing such a poor person.
Gavin Newson
Cousin's Husband.
Ernest Steven Legacy.
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => Geroge + Allyn => Charles + Angela => Ernest).
Cutie Ernest stands no nonsense like his father, but manages to keep his temper better.
Basil Thomas Long.
Second cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => Violet + Thomas => Abigail+ Shane => Basil).
Another cutie, Basil takes after his grandmother with his temperament.
Susannah Violet Almassizadeh (nee Harrison.)
Second Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => Violet + Thomas => Samuel + Heather => Susannah).
Samuel's only child, Susannah is the not only the spitting image of him, but behaves like him too.
Leonard Almassizadeh.
Cousin's husband.
Bartholomew Michael Steele.
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Evelyn + Orlando => Bartholomew).
Kind, caring, and playful Barty is very much his mother's son.
Eric Bradley Legacy.
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Charles + Angela => Eric).
Angela and Charles's son is another cutie, and was named Eric because I wanted an Eric and Ernie somewhere in the neighbourhood. He takes after his father a lot, but unlike his brother struggles with controlling his temper.
Amelia Emily Long.
Second cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => Violet + Thomas => Abigail + Shane => Amelia).
Amelia's a fun loving soul. If she had a sister instead of a brother, she'd probably throw a water balloon at her to stop her from reading so that she would play with her.
Stephanie Elizabeth Steele.
Cousin.
(Gabe + Elise => George + Allyn => Evelyn + Orlando => Stephanie).
The baby of the generation, Stephanie is very neat, very playful, nice and very, very outgoing.
