DaDeusa Matrilineal Tales--Prologue
Extreme Poverty/Matriarchy/Pixel Rules here.
Meat NotGay is the daughter of the Simselves of dragancoar and mjo5oh, a product of my efforts for pixel_trade's Simsperiments.
I was born to goddesses, and lived in luxury, somewhere outside of time. With the goddesses, time either stands still, or moves swiftly, I know not which. There are photos of my childhood, but I cannot remember being a child.
I gave it all up to learn how mortals live. I thirst to learn more!
“The taxi only goes one way,” they told me. I can never go back. Perhaps they’ll visit.
They gave me land amongst the mortals, and promised it would supply all my needs. They even gave me currency-one hundred simoleons to purchase extras from fellow mortals. My mother’s instructions were simple. “You and your daughters will live here in joy for many generations, thriving by the fruits of your labours.” But she also warned me, “Should you be foolish enough to have sons, they must strike out to seek their own fortune elsewhere, when they come of age. Your land must never be home to men.” Curious rules, and I wonder... Will my brother inherit land where women are banned?
When I first saw my new home, I had a moment of grave doubt. Flat, barren, no living creatures in sight! Perhaps, I wondered, my goddess mothers were laughing at me, back home.
But then I began to explore. I found my land is bounteous! It provides rocks, bones, and trinkets, all which can be traded for more currency.
Sometimes it brings surprises, too. But I never expected life amongst the mortals to be easy.
And I have neighbours. Fellow mortals who live their lives as mortals do. I have so much to learn from them!
My neighbours sent me to Ed’s BBQ Shack. It is a place of refuge, where one finds showers and toilets, hotdogs and glowing angels. Her name is Catalina (kingmike1224), and she is luminous like the stars.
I shall never forget Catalina.
Back at home, I met a new friend. She offered me a “blind date”. In my quest for knowledge, I had to accept, and discover what mysteries this involved. And from the sky fell a cheerleader! Here is magic I’ve never seen before. The cheerleader brought kisses, kind words, and warm company. What an evening!
The next day, upon my return to Ed's BBQ Shack, I was offered another blind date. New friends offer me warm companionship, daily! They are so kind!
Her name is Jora (tellemonstar) and she dances divinely.
And later, when I was calling my darling Catalina, Jora brought me flowers!
And when Catalina first visited me, the cheerleader brought me flowers! I never knew mortal friends would be so generous and kind!
As I approached Catalina, I thought of the cheerleader and her kisses. Could I please Catalina in the same way?
Indeed, Catalina's companionship was everything I'd dreamed of. My practice with other lovers had prepared me well!
Catalina joined me in my tent.
And later she brought me gifts! A singular rose, and a large telescope for star-gazing. Also, my once-barren land now boasts a small forest. This is such unexpected magic! I wonder if the trees grow from kisses? This would be the kind of incomprehensible magic one could attribute to my goddess mothers. A tree for every kiss! I hope to grow a thick, dense forest. I do think I like kisses almost as much as I like learning!
My time here with the mortals has been so exciting. I have made so many discoveries! I can hardly sleep at night, wondering what every new day will bring.
Notes:
- Whine whine whine do I have to sell the telescope for trees? She can't use it? She really really wants it.
- I'm playing as many as the insane crack rules as I can. Servos don't apply. I haven't cheated in a cow plant yet. I think my biggest barrier is remembering them all while I play!
- Some rules that I'm adding: No item, once used, may be sold until it depreciates for several days. Items generally should not be sold, but if the family will starve otherwise, or if an item is being upgraded for some reason, then sell it, but only if it has lost value.
- Free time aspiration bonuses: Because the rules prohibit aspiration objects, I'm assuming aspiration bonuses are not okay, either. However, I will set Meat Notgay's seconardy aspiration, because she's making it quite clear she's secondary romance, but I won't assign her any of the aspiration bonuses. I'm also contemplating the motive bonuses. It almost seems like the game was reprogrammed with Free Time to have motives decline fairly quickly without the motive bonuses, and they seem like part of a balanced game. I'm still pondering this.
- No jobs. We are a self-contained matriarchy. We'll see how this plays out.
- Cameo shots right here.
