I have never completed the legacy challenge properly, sticking to all the rules and counting points etc. So I decided to give it a go with Vlad as my founder. But I couldn’t think of a sim worthy to be his spouse... And so, following
@Queenarella who invented the amazing
Legacy-Bachelor Challenge and who kindly gave me her blessing to copy her idea, I decided to do a bachelor challenge with Vlad as the bachelor.
I will be blogging the bachelor challenge and the legacy part of the challenge. Subsequent heirs will also have their spouse chosen via a bachelor/bachelorette.

Also @Skeilah you expressed interest in following this challenge
There's just one thing: I tried to make the pictures a little bigger than I usually do but I think they turned out too big. Any constructive criticism is welcome on that front. Never mind I've made the pictures smaller now

My head is bright red from all the compliments 😅 Thanks for all the shoutouts
Oh Roland. Get over Caleb and fall for the handsome *gag* Vlad
The float thing is popular already 😂
Seems like Vlad is old-fashioned and the other vampires are hipster vamps lol
„When do you think will the bachelor arrive?“ 😂😂😂😂 Awesome!
I already love Candy! She seems to be awesome 😎
You wrote Caly as weird as she is in my head! Perfect 👌🏻
The infamous waterslide. Best thing in the mansion lol
Poor Morgan, she doesn’t get along with some of the sims in the challenge
Love the chapter!
The Legacy-Bachelor Challenge
I enjoyed this so much! The humor is fabulous! 😜
Maybe Roland needs someone who is the complete opposite of Caleb? Like an ugly long nosed vampire
You're so right, Vlad is old fashioned and stuck in his ways!
I'm so glad that I got Caly right. She is such a great sim to play with a d I love how you write her character. I had a lot of fun writing her dialogue.
I've never really used the water slide before so thank you for introducing me to it, I love it!
I don't know what was up with Morgan. Bad mood? I will have to check and see if she has the mean trait.

I like how you write Vlad. You portray him so well and his dislike of everything.
Vlad looks anything but enthusiastic...
Your pictures and description of all the participants is wonderful. I laughed out loud several times

I liked the way you wrote Bunny. I see her as sort of ditzy and happy go lucky. She got her name from her hairstyle.
Sailor Moon was named Bunny in the first English translations since that's a direct translation of her name, Usagi.
Her bio is inspired by the heroine from the manga, Boys Over Flowers 2.
Sooo... Bunny Blum is totally a Shojo manga heroine trying to get married to Vlad.
And I love how upset Vlad is by this whole ordeal.

This reminds me of a song by a German band about Dracula being too scared in the modern world so he sits in the sun to die... Love the song
Caly is bonkers and bonkers sims are fun to play ^^
The funniest part about the waterslide is when they fall
I hope she won't be eliminated soon. Maybe she's the kind of sim to start a fist fight
The Legacy-Bachelor Challenge
Thank you very much for the tag!!
@MonaSolstraale thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it
@TheYayToast thank you! I'm glad I got Bunny's character right
@Queenarella aww thank you so much! I need to hear that song it sounds awesome... Oh but it's probably in German. Gotta learn German first lol. Caly is a lot of fun to write too - thank you so much for her
@Skeilah no problem!

Oh my goodness, that was such a good chapter! I enjoyed it so much that I had to reread it a few times. It's awesome seeing everybody's sim interact with each other. You do such a great job at keeping them in character, too!

I still think she is one of the prettiest sims my game has produced. I wish her the best of luck finding love.

Vlad's costume could have been worse. Kinda sad it's not the clown costume
Bunny does look like Arwen there
Trash-talk about Caleb! I can join
Ah, Caly is one of the last two for the rose
So sad to see Morgan go. The bad beahviour wasn't a good idea.
Caleb is soooo annoying
Love the chapter and can't wait to read more
The Legacy-Bachelor Challenge
@DCJ504
@Queenarella thank you!
Yep Caly made it through so we'll see more craziness from her yet!
Since Caleb has history with Roland I don't mind him visiting, adds to the drama!

I'm so excited to see more! And not just from her
Haha, true! As long as he only stands outside and doesn't bother more
The Legacy-Bachelor Challenge
.....but i love your comments about his goodness and naivety so i'm glad he's hanging on a bit more
It looks like Candy is putting everything into winning ...
.... sneaking around and listen in the corners, doing intrigue and trying to drink the other participants under the table.
She is fantastic
(Is "drinking under the table" a term found in English?)
I love your description of Caly's madness…. "Shhh I think he’s speaking with my father!"
Unfortunately we had to say goodbye to Morgan ... her fierce opinions will be missed (... but maybe not by Vlad)

I'm really enjoying this. You're gifted in giving everyone a "voice". Vlad is my favorite character of the bunch. And if Candy doesn't win, I have a few favorites to root for too but I won't say that here. YET.
Bunny looked pretty cute in the reaper outfit. You're right that she had some serious Arwen vibes. Maybe the costume choice was just her showing she's on board for the bride of darkness thing?
Caly is hilarious and adorable.
Poor Morgan! She really got shot in the foot with the negative interactions the first day. Vlad is so spiteful.
Rainbow Sundae
In fact, I love the voice you've given all the contestants! You are a gifted comedic writer in my eyes! I literally laugh out loud at some point in every chapter! Some of the contestants are starting to shine a bit more than others now, but I'm still getting to know them so I don't really have any ultimate favorites yet, they're all fun to read. Eagerly looking forward to reading more!
Have a great rest of your weekend!
@MonaSolstraale
Yep, drinking under the table is a phrase we use in English! And it does seem as though Candy was trying to do something like that. She is crafty...
Caly is such a funny sim. But I have Queenarella to thank for that - she described her character so well!
I think having to throw out contestants is going to be the hardest part of this challenge. It's the only bit that I don't like
@pammiechick oh thank you! I'm not sure I'd ever use the word gifted to describe myself but I'm glad that their individual personalities are coming through (though that is mostly due to the fact that everyone wrote such great character descriptions in the casting thread and I'm just doing my best to follow them!)
@TheYayToast thank you! Bride of darkness... Love it. She somehow managed to look really cute in that grim costume. She is such a pretty sim.
Caly is such a funny sim!
I felt bad for Morgan. In general I think I will feel awful about sending anyone home but the first one is always going to be sad.
@Karababy52 wow thank you so much! I'm so glad that you like it - and that you're coming to like Vlad a little more (he is my favourite premade though I don't really know why... Maybe because he isn't good looking?) Gifted comedic writer... You're way too complimentary! I hope I haven't set the bar too high for myself haha. I'm sorry if things go downhill from here
