Their plane crashed. A group of unlikely survivors. Together. In the jungle.
Ten went in. Eight came out.
They signed up for adventure. They got more than they bargained for.
They came from all walks of life, but they all ended up in the same place.
They were found wandering in the jungle, injured, dehydrated, starving and lost.
They were lucky to be alive.
Their expedition leader? Presumed dead.
Who are they? No-one knows and the sad truth is that they don't really know who they are either.
Delirious with fever from a poison dart, one of them tells the tale of dancing skeletons, poison green gas clouds, plasma bats, spiders, fire and death.
The rescuers load them into the helicopter for transport shaking their heads. They are going to a more secure location. It was a fantastical tale, but no one believed them. The rescuers mumbled amongst themselves. Hushed whispers of "insane" and "psychological trauma" are heard.
The delirious one shouts out and points,
"The truth is out there! Believe me! The truth is there! It's all true."
Two hands pat the delirious one and try to calm them down. The delirious one is given some type of shot and reality slips away into darkness.
* * * * *
When you wake up...you are...somewhere...in a house with everyone else who was rescued. What is this place? Are you still in the jungle? The last you remember is someone calling you "the delirious one".
The door swings open and a sim in a medical coat appears. They hand you a pile of folders with a name and photo on top of each folder. They tell you that you seemed the most coherent of the group, so you have been put in charge. They turn to leave...
Wait! In charge? In charge of what? In charge of whom? Where am I? Umm...Who am I?
From downstairs you hear the faint strains of a song...a song that you know...the lyrics...you know them....you sing along...
"But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell..."*
And so it begins.
Welcome to the Asylum Challenge.
https://soulgal7.wordpress.com/2018/03/03/survive-the-insanity-casting-callCasting Call:
As I am almost finished my current challenge, The Wolf Pack Challenge, I am ready to tackle something new. So, I'm looking for seven sims who are a little "unwell" to join the Asylum Challenge.
What is the challenge?
The asylum challenge has been updated for Sims 4 by
@simswithcheese. As part of the asylum, only one sim can be controlled, which will be the sim I am creating for the challenge. Muhaha! Your sims will not be controlled, but left to do what sims like to do, happily setting fires and leaving garbage and laundry piles everywhere. Will your sim survive?
"You have been committed to a run down mental health facility against your will. In order to prove that you are fit to rejoin society and earn your freedom, you must achieve the goals your psychiatrist has set for you – your aspiration.
The catch? You need to achieve your goals as quickly as possible, while keeping 7 other patients, who you don't know and are out of your control, alive and as happy as possible. Add to that budget cutbacks leading to a lack of decent furniture and limited supplies, and your task gets harder."
Read all about it HERE
twinfinite.net/2017/08/sims-4-asylum-challenge/2/How to submit a sim:
- Create a new unskilled sim in CAS

I already have some stability challenged Sims on the gallery. Let me see what I can offer.
Edit: Because somebody neglected to follow directions.
Name of Sim: Krysta D
Background story: See above
Your Origin ID: @EuphorialQueen
Edit: The forum censored her last name.
Aspiration: Public Enemy (Sonny wants to make enemies and be a famous criminal)
Traits: Insane (not by choice), Kleptomaniac, Evil
Sonny is the protege of infamous Tony Corleonesi. He looks up to Tony in hopes to one day be like him. He is fresh behind the ears in the criminal industry by doing odd jobs of beating people up and stealing anything worth making money off of. He has a low fashion sense. He likes solid colors of any kind. On the outside, he has his pretty looks and charm. On the inside, he's a devious young man set out to be the next Tony Corleonesi.
On his latest job, Sonny was sent undercover as a tourist to Selvadorada. He was missioned to bring back anything valuable that could be sold at high value. It was said Selvadorada carried many treasures. Sonny was on a charter (assuming) plane with nine others.
But something went wrong with the plane and it crashed within the jungles of Selvadorada. He was lucky to survive the crash. Two didn't make it and the others end up wandering the jungle to find a way out. However, Sonny couldn't remember anything. Not even his name. Can he remember who he is and what he does? Only time will tell if he can... Survive The Insanity!

@LegacySims2017 - Sonny is hilarious. Can't wait to see his no fashion sense style of clothing. Love it!
Love these submissions - thank you!
I laughed when I saw this, because my intention was that they were rescued from the jungle (the backstory), and I was going to do the challenge in a regular house, well, rundown asylum on medium mode, with my main sim, and 2 others getting jobs in the criminal career. But just to let you know that at some point, the group will be returning to the scene of the crash...
Creator Origin ID: bmit04
Sunny was raised by wealthy very successful parents who barely had time to spend with her growing up. Her parents couldn't seem to keep a nanny for her either, going thru 50 new ones and she suspected that her parents were very difficult to work for. It definitely had nothing to do with her, although she heard whisperings otherwise between the other household staff.
Sunny finished school, barely and decided to travel the world. Her goal was to live out of her backpack and meet as many people as she could along the way. Her parents were appalled, although somewhat relieved it seemed. But in a last ditch effort to fix their daughter of her "strange behaviour" they sent her off to an assylum to correct her people pleasing ways and her insanity. What insanity, she would scream at them. I'm normal, you are the ones that are all insane.
**Make sure you grab Sunny and not Terra as they look identical. I just changed Terra's traits for this casting call and her name to Sunny. I wrote Sunny's name in the comment section
This is Veta Ramey who is technically still an adult, just an older one.
Veta does what she wants, and most of what she wants to do is wear her nightgown all the time, and occasionally run around barefoot. She remembers being locked up. She doesn't remember why. She doesn't remember anything about her life outside the bars... but every now and then she thinks of a nice, cleansing fire, clearing up all the disgusting things and making everything nice and peaceful and perfect once again...
OriginID: superkyle221
@superkyle221 - Veta sounds like a secret pyro. And with the asylum so run-down, they can't afford fire alarms....uh oh.
Thanks for making these great sims!
Background story:
Deirdre Tique beliefs herself to be the offspring of a vampire and a banshee... and acts accordingly. She is very old fashioned, avoids the sun, claims to only suck blood and souls and life from others to survive (while she is clearly eating a sandwich and drinking a juice) wails and weeps and 'foretells' the death of others. She is very gloomy and seems very mystic, seeming to know all the answers ... but is just as confused and delusional, if not more as everybody around her. Or is she? Maybe some of her jabbering hold the truth and clouded behind her craze she knows more what is happening than you imagine?
In her free time Deirdre Miss Tique likes to write fiction and compose music. maybe it is something she has done before, in another life?
Onomastics
Deirdre ~ " Sorrowful", "Raging", "Mist"
Tique ~ French for tick, the parasite (that one was a coincidence, as I was looking up a meaning for tique for the pun Mistique to Miss Tique XD)
Mistique ~ her pen-name. A combination from mist, mystic and (Miss) Tique, her name and a bloodsucking parasyte. You got it Mistique? Eh? a shut up it`s genius! XD

Lots of great inspiration here.
@EuphorialQueen - yes, I totally agree. I love all the creative back stories, too
I love all the creations submitted....and need more male sims to mix-it-up. Also, just to let everyone know, if I don't have a certain pack for a piece of clothing, I will choose something special for your sim to wear.
All I ask is you keep the color codes for Sonny if you need to reoutfit him, please.
Name of Sim: Randall Sharpe
Background Story: Randall was far from the best student of Simcity University. He did well enough to graduate but that was not why his name was recognized by the entire student body. The reason for that, was the parties he threw (also his nasty temper but mostly the parties.) Whether it was a birthday party, costume party, or even just a weenie roast, Randall was the ultimate host. At his graduation party, Randall announced that he would "keep the party going" and even "bring it around the world." Which is how he found himself on that fateful flight to Selvadorada. He now no longer remembers anything before the crash besides some vague idea of "giving everyone a good time."

@lisabee2 submitted Toby Hoyt. Here's his bio:
Toby has been contacted by the Lizardmen who told him he has been chosen and to wait because they would be back for him. Toby is fearful that the government will discover his secret & brainwash him until he betrays his scaly green friends. He has donned a protective hat to keep his brain from being probed. He knows that there are government agents in disguise all around him. He uses his magical glasses to help identify those imposters.

@Karababy52 submitted Ridge Everest. Here's his bio:
Ridge is a best selling author of SciFi novels. He loved attending SciFi conventions & discussing fun plots about the possibility of alien life with other like-minded individuals. It was a great life until one horrifying day he discovered REAL aliens are living in Newcrest! Now he’s a loner living in an underground bunker, writing & preparing for doomsday. Everybody else believes the aliens among us are peaceful.
Fools!
Is this reality… or not? Now, where did I put my tin hat?

Still time to submit a sim. All sim submissions will be used, although they may not be in the actual asylum, but they will be part of the story. Thanks for reading!
Hi everyone. Just wanted to share The Happy Hollow Asylum house tour with you. The sim giving the tour is the sim I will be playing. All characters will be introduced in the next chapter after the casting call is over. As another twist to this challenge, since the Asylum Challenge was created before there were lot traits, I have decided to do daily random assignments of the lot traits to make things more interesting. The house has been renovated from the one up on the gallery.
There is still time to create a sim for this challenge. Deadline: March 17th.

When I saw the phonograph I instantly thought about the constant playing 'Dominque' in AHS season 2. XD
