    I have a Belle and family up on the Gallery hash tagged #PrincessSimcess....here's their story. PhotoBucket worked once for me...maybe I'll post pics later anyway

    Sabine Garceau (25yrs) hasn't really left the village she grew up in. She has always escaped in her books and dreams. Escape was often necessary due to the ridicule of her family growing up. Her parents were older. Her father was a army engineer who brought back to his home village a beautiful, but foreign wife. Rude comments were often made about her dark skin and cultural differences , but when she died birthing a second child the town stopped. Her father Laurent, became a inventor or a scientist shutting himself in for a days at a time leaving her to do much of the work of the farm and caring for Liam on her own. She grew up to be quite independent, brave and capable always ready to defend her family. Her beauty has become known and has had men lining up for her hand since her was 16. Now 25, since of the town feel she should be married already, but she has continually shot them down, wanting to marry for love and not wanting to be a trophy. Many who mistake Sabine's quiet demeanor for weakness are often taken back by her fiery rebuttals. Sabine is also very kind. She is often seen around town donating from her family's harvest or old books to needy families.

    Liam Garceau (15yrs) is Sabine's younger, trouble prone brother. He's always been fascinated by the castle in the forest and he's always listened to his father and sister about not journeying out of sight but he has to find out what's out there...@PrincessSimcess I have more but I'm super sleepy just wanted to let you know they are available...

    Hey guys. I am trying to save my household, but I keep on getting a message that a Sim's name or family name, or description contains a disallowed word. All I've done is give them names. Any ideas what might be wrong? Here's my list of names. By the way, I did try changing the name Champagne to another and I still got that message.

    Minette Champagne

    Tristan Gaspard

    Agathe Charbonneau

    Jean-Pierre Benoit

    Léonie Tremblay

    Margaux Tremblay

    Timothé Lacroix

    Khalid Daadaoui

    Maddie Nelson -Mad Scientist
    Traits: Mean, Geek, Genius

    Maddie grew up an only child to very uninvolved parents. She'd always felt like an outcast growing up, feeling as though she was much smarter than her childish peers. Maddie then turned to science; it became her passion and only friend. She spent hours and hours in her homemade lab learning and creating. However, there was only so much that she could accomplish in her small lab. She learned of an apprenticeship in the mysterious castle and jumped at the opportunity. It was only a short amount of time before she'd outgrown her teacher and he'd mysteriously disappeared...

    Just tried those and it didn't make a difference. You'd think if it was considered a rude word, it would be changed to "plum" here.

    I decided to systematically check each name. Fortunately, it was the very first name I checked. Apparently, the offensive name is Minette. Now I just have to figure out why.

    Huh, well, I'm still stumped as to why Minette is offensive. Guess her name is Noémie now.

    Name: Aurélie Lévesque
    Age: 31
    Traits: Materialistic, Hot-Headed, Snob

    Aurélie grew up destitute thanks to the harsh taxation laws imposed by the King. While her family was suffering from hunger and want, she would always hear of the lavish balls and parties thrown in honor of the prince. This caused her to increasingly resent the royal family, until it eventually grew into outright loathing, especially for the spoiled prince. This also started a lifelong obsession with wealth and possessions, driving most of Aurélie's ambitions.

    Having so few resources forced Aurélie to rely on her looks and wits to get by, cultivating a certain degree of vanity within her. She tends to value what's on the surface this way, refusing to deal with anyone she believes to be inferior in looks or station. This ruthlessness, along with her cunning, helped pave the way for a successful business, as well as wealth and prestige among the townsfolk. Today, Aurélie lives comfortably in a large home with servants to attend to her every whim.

    However, none of this was ever enough. Aurélie always needed more. More wealth and prestige. Defying aging to preserve her good looks. And most of all, a desire to bring down the royal family for all the suffering they've caused. Once she manages to reach the now abandoned castle, maybe she can begin plotting the downfall of theprince and his allies.

    (Feel free to modify her background if certain parts don't fit your story)

    Thought I'd enter one of my own creations just for fun!

    Carrie Moreland was barely a young girl when her only brother was drafted into the King's army. Devastated, Carrie would stare out the window of her small home for days. Seeing her daughter cry constantly was heartbreaking for Mrs Moreland, so she devoted her time to keeping Carrie busy. Learning to sew, repair items, create fantastic hairstyles, and pick out the finest outfits on top of cleaning the house every day eventually allowed Carrie to move on.
    Until the knock came.
    Carrie's brother was declared missing in action - was he dead? No one knew. The only trace they had of him was his dogtag, which Carrie swore to wear every day until he returned.

    Entered as a Lady's Maid.

    Just uploaded the Servants Household.

    Jean-Luc runs the household. He's been everything before, first work for the masters parents as the gardener, the mixologist, the butler, and everything else. He is strict but fair and he and his wife Grace (the head chef) are like the masters surrogate parents.

    Anya and her husband had been at the castle as long as Jean-Luc and Grace. He was the entertainer and she was the housemaid. He died recently.Their daughter Leona is has lived in the castle her whole life and is now the house maid. Anya now serves as the chambermaid/Ladies maid if the young master ever marries.

    The newest addition to the household is Armon, a well-rounded entertainer who does anything for a smile. A necessity for the gloomy household.

    They all love their master and feel duty bound to protect his secrets.

    their on the gallery as House of Servants hashtagged #PrincessSimcess

    Oooh interesting! Jean-Luc would make a wonderful butler, I think. And the surrogate parents dynamic is super cool!

    This is my submission for the protagonist.

    sotklj.jpg

    The pretty blonde is Arielle Welch, a girl who grew up loved and petted. She was the first born of her parents Gil and Janey Welch. They had been married for 15 years and sadly for all those years Janey was barren. They desperately wanted a child, but it had never been granted to them until one day Janey realized she was carrying a child. Gil and Janey were over the moon. Their prayers were finally answered. She could not have been prouder waddling around the house holding her stomach tenderly, and singing. Finally the day came. It was a girl they named Arielle. To their surprise after Arielle along came a boy they named Preston, another girl named Aubree, and their last child another girl named Susan. As thrilled as they were to have all four children, Arielle was their promised hoped for child and she held the highest place in their hearts. Arielle was petted by all. When Arielle was 5 years old their father got sick and died. This left Janey with no means of support and four kids to feed. A lot of times the kids went hungry, but her mother always made sure Arielle got food before the others. For two years their mother struggled digging through trash cans, picking up the odd sewing job and doing others laundry. It wasn’t enough. Finally Janey had to concede defeat. All the kids were suffering, especially Arielle. She decided to give up the kids for adoption. It broke her heart, but what else could she do? She was becoming weak herself from lack of food and doing the work to survive was becoming harder. So Janey took the kids to a local church and left them inside with a note telling them she hoped they would find good homes for all of them. As Janey turned to walk away her heart breaking Arielle screamed and cried in terror at being left. Janey’s heart was ripped in two, and she realized she couldn’t leave Arielle behind. So she took Arielle into her arms, told the other kids to wait there and she would be back for them and walked out the door never to see her kids again. Janey struggled taking care of Arielle until she got married again to a well to do man, and Arielle grew up into a beautiful young educated woman. A real girly girl who was very spoiled, somewhat of a snob, and loved beautiful clothes, but still had a good heart. She loved her mother and step-father very much and would always be grateful to them for the life they gave her. She was old enough to get married and wanted to find a good man like her real father to marry, and could give her the life she had become accustomed too. So far nobody measured up. Her mother was happy with her living with them, so she was in no rush to encourage her daughter to marry. Janey was so proud of her beautiful daughter. She did wonder from time to time what happened to Preston, Susan and Aubree, but she would not let thoughts of them torture her. She knew she had done the right thing as she was sure they all had a better life than she could have given them. She wanted to find them, but didn’t know how to even begin. She hoped to meet up with them someday so they all could be a big happy family. Janey wondered if Arielle ever thought of her siblings, she never mentioned them. To tell the truth Arielle had thought of them over the years, but it hurt so much that she had to finally stop thinking of them as it hurt too much. After all she couldn’t change what happened, but if she ever became reunited with them it would be the greatest joy of her life and she never lost hope of it happening.
