Are there any challenges that involve having a legendary legacy, meaning a household running for 100 generations? I haven't checked all legacy challenges yet, and you could probably pick a set of common legacy rules for it, but I was wondering if there is an existing one already!
The one I made and modified jointly, @AlHollandiyah called "rags to riches" and my other two I created, "At Witt's end" and "Community Spirit" could both be taken further as they all require the hosts of the challenges to have at least one child to follow on the work in place of the host Sim once they pass on. At Witt's end requires bringing up several children who then could go on and continue the legacy of their family. So any of these found here could lead into a legendary legacy.
@EuphorialQueen , I haven't really completed any yet but I've got 2 games with 2 challenges: Legacy Challenge (Matriarchy) and Four Immortal Sisters. I'm having trouble coming up with an idea for a new challenge but I maybe one where you play as a ghost...still working on it
@SparklePlays Sounds like you are busy with those challenges. They take a lot of time to complete. Why not just create a few mini challenges for yourself that can be combined with the ones you are playing. That was the idea behind the Lonely Hearts and Challenge Mash-Up challenges. Maybe you could make the Legacy Challenge more interesting by doing something different for a couple of the Generations.

Ok...What do you mean by 'Something different'?
Example #ChallengeMashUp Challenge Mash-Up was created to incorporate several goals into one challenge. One is Lonely Hearts created and tested by @EuphorialQueen (me )and @Buttonsginger my BFF.
I rarely play the Romantic Aspirations because I have little patience for the dating scenarios. #LonelyHearts Challenge can be used in any other challenge.
You can also spice up your Legacy challenge by having a generation focus on a career or aspiration you may not usually play.
Maybe make a goal for yourself to have played all the Careers by Generation 10 of your family.
Grr I wish I could create a thread already! XD I've got my legacy challenge started but I really wanted to create a thread or something to follow along with it. Are there any suggestions for places I could do that with and maybe just link to my signature? I suppose I could use a tumblr if I can't find anything else.

I'd like to add my Careers Challenge to this list please. There are already several people playing it on Let's Plays and Twitch.
Careers Challenge
The Careers Challenge is a Sims 4 legacy-like challenge where the focus is on Careers instead of Aspirations. There are no points to be counted. Play on a normal lifespan. If you complete the aspirations as well, good! More satisfaction points! Tip: Teen jobs are not considered careers for this challenge.
There aren’t too many rules unlike the original legacy challenge. Except: No cheats can be used to advance careers or skills. Build cheats are fine (but not to acquire career reward items). You may use rewards and potions except to extend ages.
Here’s what you need to know:
1.Create your Founder Sim (or download from the Gallery). Randomly roll for your Sim’s career. You may choose traits that will help with this career.
There’s a free randomizer at random.org. I use an app for my iPad called RandomMaster. An Excel spreadsheet will also work.
1. Select any lot you wish in Willow Creek, Windenberg, Oasis Springs or Newcrest. As towns are added by EA, you can use those towns as well.
2. Start building your Legacy House using the funds left after purchasing your lot. You will only have the basics to start: kitchen, bathroom, bedroom (if you have enough money), a place to eat, and a place for skill building. No money cheats! You may use custom content if you wish.
3. Find a spouse to bring in the next generation. If he/she already has a career, you can use it. If it’s been used, roll for a different one. He/she will keep the traits he/she has. You CAN keep any funds the new spouse brings into the family.
4. As children arrive, you can (but don’t have to) add another bedroom for them if you have enough money. Your heir is the firstborn. You will roll for each child’s career and can choose children’s traits. If you roll a career that has been used, roll again until you get one that hasn’t been used. If you want a real challenge, more than one child can clear a career. Only the heir can marry and produce the next heir. Other children can be moved out when they come of age (or have cleared their assigned career).
5. When Career Rewards are earned, use them in (or decorate with) your legacy house. For instance, use the rewards kitchen counters, etc. for your kitchen, athlete rewards for your gym, and so on. You can build a specific room for each career or not. Your choice. Bedrooms, etc. can be upgraded and more bedrooms and/or other rooms can be added when funds allow.
6. The game ends when all careers have been cleared, your Legacy House is finished, and Career Rewards have been placed in the Legacy House.
@judew Hey Jude! It's Keala from Malaya's stream. I think you should make a thread for your challenge in the creative section so more people can see it.
I just spent a few hours typing out this challenge- I'm very proud of it. XD It's a very all-around challenge since it focuses on the buildings, social structures, and some generational stuff. I present to you all... this! https://thesimslibrary.wordpress.com/the-victorian-challenge/
