Jess is still infected and just gave birth to her second daughter. Dylan is in denial that she's even infected. He took up the doctor career (maybe to find out more about his wife's possible illness?), so he's no longer a stay-at-home dad, but he's still heavily involved in raising the children. He does try and snap Jess out of it when he catches her exhibiting symptoms, but usually she just wanders around the neighborhood at night talking to plants or bothering Erwin at his booth. When the children are teens, I think they're going to team up and try to cure her/defeat the mother, maybe Dylan will finally come around and help them too, but I haven't decided yet.
When your wife acts like this in the middle of the night, there isn't a monster under your bed, but in your bed... How strong will Dylan's love will be?????
I want to play ALL the premade families! One day...
I wanted Jess to be like in the trailer for Strangerville. And in the trailer she lives alone...in a trailer, she does not seem to have a family at all.
So what I did was one night I spawned a bunch of random sims, gave them the status infected and pretended that the husband and the daughter got kidnapped by then removing them from the household and moving them somewhere else.
Then I played with Jess living in a trailer, where she tries to find her family by doing the investigation. I prefer playing with just one sim anyway so playing with her doing the investigation by her own was pretty fun.
On top of that, I wanted to play with Sacrificals Zombie mod, so now she walks around and shoots zombies as well.
Maybe she will discover her family by the end of the investigation...or she will keep searching for them...in the jungle...with zombies.
@logion wow, your Jess rocks! She looks really bad plum! Good idea to make her family kidnapped.
In my game, Dylan decided to become a scientist, temporarily, during Jess' maternity leave. He's afraid for the baby and wants to get access to the lab faster. He suspects he is being watched. He pretends to play along so his family is safe. Christie is scared... He befriended the pilot. He found it odd no one has cleared the airplane and was surprised to find a survivor.

My sim who solved the mystery befriended Dylan and is in the club with him and some other guys. They're like bros who hang out regularly. I also noticed Dylan is very good looking, so I might break up him and Jess so I can ship him with one of my sims.
I've already completed the Strangerville storyline with a sim I made so the Sigworths are safe. Although, I might draft Jess into my Amazon Clan, if that happens she won't be safe. Muahahahaha
I haven't played with any pre made's in StrangeVille. will do so today. so can you have more than one family investigate, and they all come together, can I make a club specifically for the quest. maybe that's something I need to try.

Yep! Right now I have several sims in the neighborhood helping my journalist sim in her investigation. I had the Mrs. Roswell bring the information she found in Ted’s basement to my journalist sim, and had Mr. Sigworth do the same with the info on the bedroom dresser.
You can either gift the item to the target sim (this is usually read as a bad gift tho), or you can drag from the sim’s inventory to the target sim.
Only one sim can ‘complete’ the aspiration (whoever initiates the fight with the mother), but all can investigate.
if you bring your active sims down together in a group, multiple can actually complete the aspiration before you leave. you just have to make sure they've got enough bizarre fruit in their inventory to revive and start the fight over with a new sim leading. i had all three of my investigators (who were in a household together) complete it that way before i had them revive her, ask for standard weirdness and finally leave
Dylan was my hero , Jess was promoted high in the military carreer and the daughter so far completed 3 aspirations. I loved playing this family , as soon as Jess and daughter left for work and school , Dylan was off trying to solve the mystery of Strangerville .
In my game, Jess was a little bored with Dylan, So she started having an affair with premade J.Huntington, who also is her co-worker in the military career is & happily married father of 4. J moved with his family to Strangerville from Oasis Springs temporarily so his wife, who is in the scientist career, could solve the mystery as she was assigned to by her job. Since his wife was always out solving the mystery instead of being home with him and the kids, he started feeling neglected and started seeing Jess after they became super close going to happy hours together at the bar after work. J eventually broke up with Jess when he found out she was pregnant cause his wife became pregnant with their 5th child after solving the mystery around the same time. J “has no idea” that the child Jess was pregnant with was his. Poor Dylan on the other hands thinks it’s his. J’s wife had given Jess the vaccine to cure her infection but Jess purposely ate a bizarre fruit again just so J’s family could move back to help her...they ended up permanently moving to Strangerville cause they loved it there but J wants nothing to do with her anymore so she’s just living her life with Dylan and her two kids...and continues to get possessed every night...then poor Dylan has to keep and eye on her and keep bringing her back.
HELPPPP, my Dylan died by trying to kill mother and now not sure what to do, to go along the story as it is with him dead leaving Jess presumably pregnant and her child daughter Christie to deal with her mother “strange” behaviour, perhaps maybe I should go along and so use Christie to finish the story and get revenge on mother and perhaps she becomes a well know famous bestselling author ?! What y’all think ?
Not much. I only made some changes to their house and played the household from time to time. I might add some pictures later, even though I featured them in another thread, too.
Jess was infected, by the way.
Among other things, the sim made to solve the mystery visited the Sigworth family for Winterfest, and Jess once beat up the Easter bunny as I wondered what "fight for eggs" was about.
Here are two pictures suggesting members of the family might learn some gardening.
A while later, Christie did some gardening (a sort of) while her parents tried for a baby.
Since left Strangerville and are living in Oasis Springs. After the Mother was defeated, Jess was pretty traumatised over her possession and wanted to get out of town, and they didn't have much connection with the placce anyway. Christie is friends with Olivia Kim-Lewis (the Spencer-Kim-Lewises live in Oasis Springs now, since I made Willow Creek a magic-and-occult-only town) and they're living off Jess's military compensation / hush money / I just motherlode'd them. Jess is still in contact with Alice and Erwin, moreso Erwin since he was part of the team that helped bring down the Mother and knows firsthand how traumatising it is.
I also gave Christie more of a lower jaw. We'll see how it turns out when she ages up!
In short, after getting infected Jess's mind was swapped with that of the motherplant. After learning this, Dylan decided to rescue his wife. He started working together with the very confused motherplant and together they unraveled more and more of the mystery. When the motherplant was defeated, Dylan was heartbroken from having a lost a friend, but also immensely relieved to have his wife back.
Afterwards the couple returned to their normal lifes, with Jess continuing her military career and Dylan staying home with Christie. He is making a name for himself from selling his cakes and in fact accumulated fame during the mystery already. For their part in the experiments the couple got a large sum that they will spend for a luxury vacation at Sulani (I haven't gotten around to play that yet).
Here is a pic of "Jess"/Mother and Dylan during the investigations:
@Wallsisms4ever Love the melodrama. ;P It's cool we can do that with the Sims.
@EnkiSchmidt Selling cakes? Interesting. They truly deserve their vacations in Sulani!
@ryttu3k Hush money, yes, that's a good idea, especially after what happened!
@BoergeAarg61 Fight for eggs, literally? Aww, poor Jess, her military training got to her head! You'd think that, after the mother episode, they'd avoid gardening, especially the one involving cow plants. Aw, sims.
@arenella Yes, using Chris for revenge later sounds good! The baby might even lend her a hand if she waits a bit?
I want to play ALL the premade families! One day...

@simmingaspie Jess is quite the amazon! I'm sure she'll manage whatever you throw at her, especially if she is still infected... Immunity!

runs around a lot with her head to the side
Reading "The Puppets Masters" by Robert A. Heinlein. Suddenly, I wanted to play StrangerVille again. ;P Good read to put you in the mood.

There is another family that steals the spotlight occasionally, but you can try these links instead that should remove everything non-Sigworth:

During the mystery:
After the mystery:
Dylan was extremely worried about her and about their daughter finding out that he would lock jess alone in the room every night.
So he decided to investigate and solve the mistery. Jess felt guilty and sacrificed herself to the mother.
Dylan defeated the mother but it was too late, Jess was gone. Their daughter took the military career to honor her mother.
