Sims 4 Amazonian Bachelor(ette) - COMPLETED 7/4/17

kethrydrakekethrydrake Posts: 2,389 Member
I decided to try the whole bachelor challenge thing...
The Scenario:
Your home has been conquered. The conquerors have demanded that the union be sealed by a marriage. There are two problems with this. One is that your home is ruled by a six member council. Each member represents a particular Clan. Each Clan controls part of the world’s economy. The second problem is that your home is a matriarchy. Males are considered to be second class citizens with no voting rights. Your conquerors have demanded that six males and six females be sent to compete for the right to seal the union. You have been selected to represent your Clan.

Details: Introduction

    I'm kind of confused about the rules, but I'll read over them again and think about who I'm going to submit :)

    What's confusing?
  • BlargianBlargian Posts: 197 Member
    It's probably got nothing to do with you :) Just had an intense day at uni yesterday (3 hours of maths and then 3 hours of spanish) so lots of words are just jumbling up.

    This is so exciting - I love challenges and haven't seen any like this one yet!

    It is inspired partly by the Amazon challenge, though the world is set in modern times (current Tech level). Males were slaves to females but within the past 1-2 generations they have been free. Your sim doesn't remember that time, but their parents and grandparents do and there are many who would like to return to that...but then they were conquered. Part of your sim's role should they be chosen would be Ambassador/Liaison between their spouse's culture and their own. Also some ideas I had on a rainbowacy inspired by the novel Shades of Grey by Jasper Fforde, combined with the University degrees from Sims 3...

    Cool :) I might make an Aquamarine Female.

    My Gallery ID: Jalooloo

    Name: Anasta Kincaid

    Traits: Genius, Kleptomaniac, Materialistic, Business Saavy

    Aspiration: Mansion Baron

    Clan (birth and chosen): Aquamarine born and chosen.

    Reason for participating (include how you won the Clan competition): Anasta is the only heir of a family dynasty that has bred Aquamarines for centuries. Everyone born in this family has been an Aquamarine, well, besides a few strays but no one talks about them. She believes that this challenge will showcase her genius skills to the world and match her with the most optimal partner for breeding. She won the Clan competition by single-handedly creating a marketing campaign which enticed people to buy breath mints that made you more alluring and confident. Whether the product was legitimate or placebo... that is up to you; either was she did her job and did it well.

    Skills (1-3, these reflect your sims’ hobbies and areas of expertise, I will be randomly assigning skill points): Logic, Charisma, Mischief

    Ideas for elimination contests: Chess games and see who exercises the longest? Or maybe a marathon type thing where they have to complete multiple different things in a row.

    Name: Dakota Pate

    Traits: Art Lover, Clumsy, Family-Orientated (Muser)

    Aspiration: Painter Extraordinaire

    Clan: Born into Ruby, Chose Amber

    Reason for participating: Dakota May seem like the last person in his clan to consider participating. Both his boyfriend and girlfriend laughed in his face when he mentioned entering the competition. It was a hurtful thing too. Dakota knew what hurting was too. He knew it as a child, being pressured into beauty pageants and sports tournaments at a young age as a Son of a strong Ruby woman. She played Pro for many woman's teams while his father was a lowly children's coach. He hadn't ever seemed to mind though, seeing as his modeling career soared more than his natural sport talent. It was gut-wrenching to be five years old and be scolded for not being interested in sports, and then not long after to put somewhere you've never been. At five Dakota was shipped off to be apart of the Amber Clan. The hurt was there, but he definitely felt more at ease with himself here, surrounded by other creative bodies. At 13 he passed his Amber Clan test, which is the same day he met Marina and Jace. By 16 they were all dating, it was honestly fun to be a teenager and have Marina holding Jace's hand, and Dakota holding Jace's. All the teasing about how they should introduce themselves as "Marina, Marina's boyfriend Jace, and Jace's boyfriend Dakota."
    Then at 21 he soared above and beyond the Amber exam, which is when he expressed wanting to participate. They laughed, told him he'd walk into the competition and have an anxiety attack. It caused a fight, quite a bad one. Marina confessed how she never really wanted Dakota in her relationship anyways, Jace timidly would not admit that he was the one that convinced her. Marina had to be the one to break them up.
    Dakota still entered, fueled by sadness and anger. In cooking, he looked the judges dead in the eyes as he presented an artful plate of perfectly prepared Pufferfish Nigiri. Progressing forward into the art competition he poured his anger and sadness into one painting. Marina as a grinning puppet master, he and Jace dangling from strings as her puppets. Only, nobody else knew the devious puppet master and sad puppets were meant to symbolic.
    Finally was the talent competition, after being reckless in his cooking and over-emotional in his painting, Dakota took to the stage and sang.
    What started as a wish to prove himself, ended in a motivation only seeking to prove his exes wrong.

    Skills:Painting, Cooking, Singing

    Questions you want the Bachelor(ette) to ask (1-3):Did you have to switch Tribes?
    Any previous relationships?
    How badly have you ever been hurt?

    Ideas for elimination contests (1-3): who can cook the longest w/o starting a fire
    first to complete a large painting
    last to pass out

    I'm not sure what it is, but it keeps telling me my post is too short even though I know it isn't. :(

    EDIT: Well, this posted. Strange! I'll post my sim now. :)

    Name: Macie Valencia

    Traits: Loves Outdoors, Snob, Romantic

    Aspiration: Freelance Botanist

    Clan (birth and chosen): Emerald

    Reason for participating (include how you won the Clan competition): Macie was born into what some may call the "tree hugger" Clan. Though, thanks to her Clan, many others had food and resources. They were the ones providing food, fish, and health care. Whether the others liked them or not, everyone needed their help.
    Although the females in Macie's Clan are required to become a doctor, her heart's desire is to be a farmer. Ever since she was younger, Macie enjoyed helping others plant and care for their gardens. She never minded getting her hands a bit dirty. Even if it goes against her clan's wishes, Macie refuses to do something she won't enjoy.
    Ms. Valencia won her Clan's competition due to her tenacity, and bright ideas (and perhaps even flirting her way up to the top). She was always one to stand out in the Emerald Clan, due to not being as "nurturing" as the others may have preferred. When Macie showcased some new techniques for farming during the competition, everyone was impressed. After all, it was uncommon for a female to have such great knowledge about it. The techniques proved successful, and she was crowned the victor.

    I hope you like her :smile:

    I made my sim and uploaded her to the gallery with the hashtag, but ran out of time to post her on here before work. Hopefully I'll have time to post tomorrow!

    I was a little confused on the clan part, but here is the sim I made:

    20952z6.png

    Name: Harlow Benitez

    Traits: Domestic, Active, Loves the Outdoors, Outgoing

    Aspiration: Successful Lineage

    Clan (birth and chosen): Born Ruby, Choosing Ruby

    Reason for participating (include how you won the Clan competition): Harlow grew up in a rural family. She was raised by her mother and father, along with her four brothers. They did not have a ton of money, but an enormous amount of love. Harlow knew she wanted more. When it came to winning her clan competition she was going to have to beat her brothers. In the end Harlow won! But that was just the beginning. Now she is searching for someone to start her own clan with. Someone to help her build her own successful lineage.

    I uploaded her to the gallery under her name with the hashtag. My gallery ID is porisemily.

    Clans are in part family by blood and in part similar to medieval Guilds. Certain Clans are in control over certain jobs. People outside of the Clan are not permitted to work in those jobs. However, recognizing that not everyone born into the Clan is suited for the work, there is a system of fostering those who do not meet Clan standards. In addition, it prevents inbreeding by allowing matches across Clan lines by having people not born in the Clan join the Clan as children, teens, or adults.

    In addition, it is a matriarchy, where the females rule and rank higher than mere males. Also, since a male and a female were requested, males and females would have separate competitions...

    I just want to make sure I've done it right in Dakota's bio at this point.

    How many more sims do we need? Could we make another to help?
  • kethrydrakekethrydrake Posts: 2,389 Member

    "...aliens wouldn’t fit into the society."
    I read your bgstory in your blog site, 1st of all, *clap clap* I love what you have written. Personal thought, alien is an Amazon society like you have created. As matter a fact, I feel pity on Alien male because they cannot impregnate others like regular male sims do. In fact if they put into the Amazon society, they are the most bottom rank of all.
