Maeve grew up a quiet and reserved girl, until a friend of hers showed her the wonderful world of Bowling. Nothing felt better than the gratification of making all of the pins fall down when the ball hits.
At the time, she was engaged to be married, and even after her wedding she kept the bowling a secret from her husband. He assumed that she went out with friends on those nights to get their nails done or something, he didn't really wonder. One night, she came back with some of her lipstick still on, and she explained about her love of the game after he was confused. He found it kinda oddly attractive, and it didn't affect the rest of their lives, so it was a good thing. He goes to her games and cheers her on when he can, always the doting husband. He may get teased by his coworkers, but the happieness on his wife's face is worth it when she can let go and become someone else for a little while. She's sweet and kind all of the time, even when in her persona. They're one of those 'looks too you young to be married' couples, so guys ask Maeve out all the time, and girls ask Ben out all the time too, leading to a few awkward situations.
Just keep away the old ladies asking when they're going to have kids! That's a little ways down the road, but something they both want one day.
She based her costume on punk school girl. I don't have Bowling stuff, so I didn't have any actual bowling shirts, or bowling skill, so if you could enter that in, that's be great.
Skill level: whatever a few years would get you, probably an intermediate.
Okay, I got ambitious and went for it tonight Hope you like him! (I forgot to set his bowling skill though, sorry!)

It all started with a late-night conversation with one of his gaming buddies.
Ezra still isn't quite sure how the mix-up happened. Maybe he couldn't hear well enough over the crunching of his Doritos. Maybe he was too focused on the raid he and his friends were trying to finish. Or maybe the connection in his mom's basement was just awful...
Either way, when the word "bowl" came up in the conversation, Ezra jumped on the opportunity. Much to his dismay, however, he found out the hard way that his friend was inviting him to do a very different kind of "bowl" than what he had in mind.
But when he showed up at the bowing alley the next morning, Ezra still found himself smoking something... his opponents. Maybe all those hours playing Wii Sports as a kid finally payed off?
Despite his initial hesitation, Ezra has been finding himself more and more comfortable leaving the dark comfort of his mother's basement for bowling practice. There are free snacks to munch on, and plenty of hot girls to look at (and even talk to, when he's lucky!). And sometimes, he even manages to sneak out behind the alley for the type of "bowl" he's more familiar with.
Plus, it helps get his mother to stop nagging him about being a worthless deadbeat who'll never amount to anything...
Win-win!
Pro Experience: Rising Rookie! Team: Bowl Movements
Background/Bio Scarlet has been bowling since she was old enough to get the ball down the alley. Scarlet works out a lot so that she can maintain that upper body, arm and wrist strength needed to get a perfect strike every time. A nice benefit of her workout is that her curvy bod oftentimes distracts the opponents, both male and female. She has been known to sneakily use that to her advantage. I mean what's a little innocent flirting between friends - right?
She is alluring, romantic and athletic - duh - but get her around a kid and all bets are off.
Pro Experience (Rookie, Veteran or somewhere in between) She has been bowling professionally for a few yeas trying but not quite a veteran yet.
@Munterbacon - I just made one for Dolls with Balls because @VanPelt81's girl is on that team! lol.... So please reserve my spot - I will be uploading shortly! This looks like a blast! Thanks @pammiechick for tagging me. I totally missed this.
Your welcome!!! I figured all of you would come through!
Okay, thank you all for the influx of submissions. I might change it to 4 sims per team and will add that to the front page, so previously full teams will now be open for a fourth sim
Edit: Apart from Dolls with Balls, that one will have 4 in it.
Agnes Baskerville has survived nine husbands and is looking to bowl a strike. She's not picky--she'd just prefer her next husband be much younger than her and hopefully outlive her this time. And it wouldn't be so bad if he looked like the heroes on the covers of the romance novels she reads to her nine cats (one named after each dead husband).
She very much likes Jonas Hammond's supple cheeks...
Definitely a veteran bowler--she's been around the block (and down the lane) a few times.

Background/Bio: Opal used to be the rough n' dirty butch lesbian heartthrob and every girl's secret crush at the lanes, and Anna used to be the curvy and sultry bowling queen who distracted her opponents without fail (who was always somehow single of course). Of course, that was all twenty years ago. They've played on different teams before without their marriage getting tanked, so now can't be much different.
Pro Experience (Rookie, Veteran or somewhere in between): Pro (Opal), in-between (Anna)
Team you're submitting them to:Bowl MovementsMmm...Turkey (Opal), Dolls with Balls (Anna)
Regular outfits first, bowling ones second, Anna also comes with a third outfit for after-game tactical seducing:
Awesome! I love them both!!! Thanks for submitting them.
Also, "After-game tactical seducing." Now THAT was an epic line!

A part of me sorta wants to submit a sim or two but uhh
I'm not sure what team... Those team names are amazing LOL
Thanks for the tag, @pammiechick
I'm eyeing that last Bowl Durnam spot as well as Incredibowl Hulks, but I'm cool with filling up whichever team needs to be filled up more.
@Cement Those spots are yours if you want them. The other spots will fill out fine and if they don't I'll just up the number of sims people can submit. I'll reserve those slots for you now but let me know if you want to change them.
Also I forgot to set Agnes's and Jonas's bowling skill, whoops!! Hope you don't mind setting them, Munter. LOL I can still picture the fiery determination (and lust) in Agnes's bespectacled eyes...
Background/Bio:
As a retired figure skater, Hannah credits her success to an "otherworldly messenger" she calls the Consultant, who advises her... Through lamps. Because lamps enlighten her with bright ideas on how to take down her opponents. Aside from her unusual obsession with lamps (or anything with a lightbulb), her competitiveness is no joke, making her a worthy opponent on the ice... And the bowling alley.
After leaving the ice years ago, Hannah recieved a sign from the Consultant that a greasy pair of bowling shoes she found at a yard sale was her true destiny--and the rest was history.

Prince Bana Rambunctious Scamp/Genius
Background/Bio:
A genius since birth, Prince found that everything came naturally to him. Whether it be mental prowess or athetic ability, Prince had it all--Including a giant ego (despite his small size). It wouldn't be hard to like him if he was humble, but he's aware of his genius and makes sure that everyone knows... Through blatant soliloquies, where he tells the world everyone is but a speck attempting to shroud his greatness.
With a huge ego comes enough pride to rival it; Prince will never tell you the real reason why he's here.
It's not like he got lost on his way home, or that he can't remember what his mom's cellphone number was--Because who cares, he's here to BOWL.
...On paper, at least.
Pro Experience: Veteran Team: Incredibowl Hulks
I got a backup guy just in case if you would prefer not to use my lost child, though LOL
Hannah’s gonna bring extra lamps with her... just in case.
Prince is going to be a laugh, but can kids get level 5 bowling? I’ll find out today so we may need your back up... Unless, we use your backup as a proxy - and use their scores for Prince!

Hannah is awesome too but aaa I love that you submitted a kid. And such a cute one! Know-it-all kids are the best.
Especially those that think they're too good for even their own mistakes
HE'S HERE TO BOWL not because he's still trying to figure out how to get in contact with his mom

@Bugsie2016 Yeah, I do. Ended up boosting the number per team up from 3 to 4 so I still need a fair few.
