    I just uploaded two new sims for Calmorezoo's Student Life Competition, which can be found here: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/850348/student-life-a-sim-creating-comp-now-open/p7

    I started out with the idea for the first one, but then ran into some trouble and came up with the second as a backup plan. Of course, I ended up so attached to both that I had to submit both of them.

    Name of sim= Gray Richardson
    Type of life state= Human
    Download link= http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=8751557
    Traits= Loner, Brave, Good, Athletic, Disciplined
    LTW= Physical Perfection
    Favs= Hot Dogs, Epic, Blue
    Money fund amount = 20,000
    Skills started= Athletic 3, Martial Arts 3, Logic 2, Cooking 1, Handiness 1
    4 inventory items= High School Diploma, Balance Ball, Ninja's Choice Smoke Bombs, Sheng Hai Training Dummy (family inventory)
    6 Pictures=

    GrayRichardsonCharacterSheet.png

    The about me story=
    Born Gray Rook of the renowned Soaring Rooks family of acrobats, Gray's childhood was filled with excitement and adventure as his family travelled around the world with the circus with which they performed. He learned tumbling and gymnastics from a very young age. But his happy childhood was brought to an abrupt halt after sabotage sent his parents plunging to their deaths during a performance. Detective Richardson, a police officer who happened to be in the audience that fateful night, took on both investigation of the case and adopted the orphaned Gray.

    As a troubled boy, Gray took comfort in comic book stories of super heroes. If only he had been a hero, maybe he could have saved his family. He took to pretending to be a hero whenever he played.

    Now a young adult, Gray has kept up practice in the acrobatic arts he learned as a child, although he doesn't perform. He also hasn't abandoned the idea of being a hero and does everything he can to help people in need. His adoptive father has started a family of his own, though, and it's time for Gray to go find his own place in life.


    *I'll admit that Gray should have a big "inspired by" disclaimer. I'm curious to see if anyone knows who he is based on. :D

    Name of sim= Jah'ayme Xiptra (You can call her Jamie, though. She's used to her name being difficult for native Simlish-speakers to pronounce.)

    Traits= Good, Brave, Daredevil, Computer Whiz, Socially Awkward

    JahaymeXiptraCharacterSheet.png

    The about me story=
    Jah'ayme has had a hard time adjusting to her new home on SimEarth. Her parents were refugees, trying to leave their old lives behind and just blend in to their new home, but it wasn't working out well for her. All the technology was so old-fashioned and her parents restricted her use of the advanced technology from their old home. The people were so odd, too. She just couldn't seem to figure out the culture and was always saying the wrong thing, so she hadn't made any friends. Her best friend was her holodisk sprite, M'orrz.

    She took to using back paths and alleyways to avoid people and the looks they gave her, until one evening someone caught her in a dark alley, intending far worse than mean looks or words. She cried for help and cowered, sure that none would come to help her. But then there was a flash of smoke and a bold figure stood bravely before her, shielding her. Her would-be attacker fled and as quickly as he had appeared, her rescuer vanished. Inspired by the experience, Jah'ayme began to research the fiction of her new home to understand the phenomenon that had happened to her.

    Her parents are sending her to school, so she can enter the scientific community naturally in a few more years and from there gently guide the science and technology of the world to greater levels. Jah'ayme, however has come up with her own ideas about how to use the advanced tech available to her.

    Both of the sims are very nice! :) The background details that you have written for them are great, and will be nice for simmers to build onto their sim stories when they download the sims and play them in their games. Very nice pictures that you have posted of them, which reflect aspects of their background story and their lives. It is nice seeing the younger pictures of Gray as well as the older ones.
    They are very nice sims :)

    It is long past time for me to get this thread fully up to date, including the older builds I made before creating the thread. So to expedite things (so that I might actually get it done), I'll just post one picture here and a link to more pictures for my old creations.

    To start off, this was my first build for a contest. It was a world adventures vacation home contest. The description is a bit weird, I think I found it funny at the time.

    Lot Name: Cascade Retreat
    Lot Size: 40x40
    Description: Need to get away from the bustle and multitasking of daily life? Return to simple pleasures with this lovely vacation home which neatly separates different activities. No more eating at the computer desk in the bedroom. 2 Bed/2 Bath. No CC or CAP.

    Next up is a build I made for the Build That Home contest. I cringe a bit at this one, in that I know I could do a much better job now than I did back when I was first starting, but it's still in my studio and not actually a bad build, so I'm swallowing my pride and posting it here.

    Lot Name: Modern Might
    Lot Size: 40x40
    Description: An ideal combination of working space, family coziness and luxury, all wrapped up in modern style. Contains a master suite, two childrens' bedrooms and a convertible storage room in the basement with a total of 3 and 1/2 bathrooms. Features an artist's dream studio and a perfect office for any aspiring physician, both accessible by an exterior staircase.

    More Pictures: http://s1176.photobucket.com/user/KaytayRoall/slideshow/Sims 3 - Design That Home/Power Couple?sort=2 (includes pictures of the Reilly family for the same contest, see next post for description)
  • KaytayRoallKaytayRoall Posts: 923 Member
    The Reilly family was for the same contest.

    Exchange Link: http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=8225605
    Description: Clara was well on her way to living the dream. She had a brilliant husband and two bright and lovely children and was always creating, be it painting, sculpting or inventing. Until her sister, who had disappeared after dropping out of college to elope with a stage magician, suddenly appeared on her doorstep, widowed and penniless. Unable to ignore her sister's plight, she has taken her sister in.

    My entry for cmbaker16's Are You Marriage Material?

    Haley Albrecht
    Exchange Link: http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=8614531
    Description: Created for cmbaker16's Matchmaking game. Not having the funds to afford college, Haley has joined the military to finance her education. She is a tough and determined young woman, but somewhere under all that grit and seriousness she has a soft spot for dogs and a dream of true love. (Uploaded as a household so she has some skills, a career and progress toward a Uni degree if I remember correctly)

    Screenshot-83.jpg
  • KaytayRoallKaytayRoall Posts: 923 Member
    Once Haley found true love, my replacement entry was going to be the following sim, but the thread sadly went on an indefinite hiatus prior to her introduction.

    Periwinkle Boone
    Exchange Link: http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=8745919
    Description: Periwinkle, or Peri for short, was raised in the lap of luxury, the daughter of a brilliant scientist and a successful businesswoman. She's always been interested in the arts, fascinated by the idea of making something out of nothing. However, a tragic accident has left her both bereft of her family and without much money. Will she be able to make something out of her nothing?

    I feel like it's worth mentioning that this is one of my favorites and I use this as a starter in my own games all the time, converting the nursery into whatever I need, whether it's an extra bedroom, art studio or something else.

    It was very nice seeing all your builds and sims that you have posted in these latest posts. :) Each of them are very nice! The sims are very nice for us to enjoy playing in our games. Each of the starters are very nice! It is a nice variety of starter homes to choose from for our sims as they begin their sims lives in the sims world. The shopping plaza comminuty lot bulld is very nice for our sims to visit and enjoy buying items at the different stores there.
    Each of the builds and sims households are very nice! :)

    Update time! I've got all my creations from the latest exchange as well as my first ever entry in Build n Share. To start off, my buddy asked for some "normal-looking" occults, so I've got eight of those, individually and in a couple small groups.

    Abigail Barnes
    http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=8855754
    Abigail's alien blood is very thin--her great-grandmother was born after a certain abduction incident long ago. Despite that, certain traits continue to show up through the generations and she has a hard time disguising her alien heritage. She's uncomfortable in social situations, but is also very clever.

    Catalin Torres
    http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=8855753
    Catalin's family always jokingly called her "kitten" both because of her name and because she would rather sit around on the couch than run around like all her siblings. But instead of being physically active, Catalin likes to work with her hands, whether she's building something new from scrap or taking something apart to fix it.

    Marshall Hill
    http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=8855752
    Recently turned into a Plantsim after eating the result of a friend's science experiment, Marshall is adjusting well, because he was always an outdoorsy type even beforehand.

    There's something weird about plantsims that they tend to revert to the default bright green hair color at the drop of a hat. So just to be safe, I also uploaded his hair color, which can be found here: http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=8855755
    MarshallHill.png
  • KaytayRoallKaytayRoall Posts: 923 Member
    Rowan Hill
    http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=8855751
    Rowan has never let the fact that he started out his life as a figment of someone's imagination get him down. He always enjoys a good joke and has a passion for cooking--as well as a flair for the dramatic.

    Rowan was Marshall's imaginary friend, which is why they share a last name.

  • KaytayRoallKaytayRoall Posts: 923 Member
    In addition to the individual uploads, I also have a version of them uploaded together as a household. They have some skills started, progress toward uni degrees and a couple of them also have jobs.

    Supernormal Roomies
    http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=8855756
    Although all so-called "supernaturals" of varying backgrounds, they don't let that label define or limit them. These friends met at college and chose to move in together after their first term ended. They are pursuing their dreams, ordinary and extraordinary, while blending in with the world around them.

    Here they are all lined up in front of the dorm before their first day of school...

    Edwin Brewer
    http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=8856615
    Descended from a witch family renowned for their alchemical skills, Edwin is determined to make a name for himself by becoming a master mixer not only of alchemy, but also nectar making and mixology.
