    I love the idea of this series, @gallerysims4! I like hunting for CC.

    Traits: Active, Worldly, Dog Lover
    Aspiration: Explorer of the Jungle
    Theme: Stone Age
    CC: Yes

    Hana has never felt her place in her tribe was secured. She wants to get out into the world and see what's beyond the jungle that surrounds them. Life as a childbearer wasn't meant for her. She's one with the animals surrounding her and feels like her place in the world was meant to be bigger.

    Challenge Week 12:
    History 2(Egyptian, Early Civilizations)!
    And here is the second challenge in our little series based off of the Sims 4 History Challenge. I am trying to make these challenges as flexible as possible so it is also doable by our non-cc users. I hope that you enjoy this next challenge (and also tell me what you think of the series and if we should do more in this format).

    You have until the 4th of September to complete this challenge!!

    The challenge sounds interesting, I just haven't had the time to work on it yet!
  • MousellineMouselline Posts: 4,845 Member
    This would be a good challenge to do on the Sims 3 since I have Egyptian styled stuff.😂 is that cheating?
  • gallerysims4gallerysims4 Posts: 267 Member
    @Mouselline You can use whatever version of The Sims that you want! @Duvelina I can extend the closing day for this challenge if you would like?

    MeG7WsJ.png
    Traits: hot-headed, ambitious, self-assured
    Aspiration: Fabulously wealthy
    Marcus has served in the Roman army as a centurian for many years. He's well known for his fierce temper and fighting prowess. He's feared and respected by all under his command. But Marcus knows who's the real boss in his life. His wife Octavia


    Octavia Ocella H6v5OO0.png
    IrRB2tt.png
    Traits: ambitious, family-oriented, self-assured
    Aspiration: Successful lineage
    Octavia's parents betrothed her to Marcus and she was married off at a young age. Back in the early Roman era, marriages were made for political and financial reasons and alliances. Fortunately for both, it proved to be a love match. Octavia runs a tight ship at home and Marcus knows to never cross the line :) Octavia would like to start a family soon.
    Looks like they got a head start on that :)vn7XUXo.png
    Marcus works in the military career and Octavia works as a charity organizer.

    @sarabeth2984 I'm impressed with your ability to create sims fitting the challenges without CC. They look so good!

    @gallerysims4 I don't know when I would have time to do this challenge, probably somewhere next week so it's up to you really. I don't mind if you move on!
  • gallerysims4gallerysims4 Posts: 267 Member
    @Duvelina No problem! I have decided to move the end of this challenge to the 10th of September. Thanks so much to @sarabeth2984 , you make such amazing Sims without CC, truly amazing. It seems to have been quite a busy week for many of us (me included)!

    Name: Eileen Lentz
    Age: YA
    Traits: Glutton, Seasonal Affective Disorder, Insider
    Aspiration: Bodybuilder
    CC used? Yes.

    Eileen is a tough girl. At least, she wants to be. It's too bad for her she can't stop eating. Those cakes just look too good! The court chef had to chase her out of the kitchen more than once already and she's only been at the castle for a week. Eileen comes from a noble family background but she's here to prove herself as a soldier. Well, when she becomes one... After she makes it through training.

    Name: Annabel Forrester
    Age: Teen
    Traits: Arrogant, Loner
    Aspiration: Mansion Baron
    CC used? Yes.

    Annabel is an arrogant, independent girl. She thrives when she's doing something on her own but those are also the moments her wildest dreams start developing. Annabel hopes to one day own her own property and be incredibly wealthy. Completely scandalous and unimaginable, Annabel's papa would never agree. Her brother is first in line, so Annabel wouldn't ever be uncomfortable but she also wouldn't be rich. Until the time comes where she has figured out what to do to build her own wealth, she behaves like the spoiled little rich girl that she is.

    @duvelina @gallerysims4 Thank you for the lovely comments!

    @duvelina I really like Rashida! She’s beautiful! I especially love her hair and accessories. The gown is perfect!
    And Eileen is precious! I know the cake struggle lol. I wish her luck during her training!
    I love Annabel’s name. Her dress is cute and I love what you did with her hair! I hope her dad will let her buy her own place soon. But knowing her personality, she’ll do well :)


    OMG! I loved this challenge! I got a bit carried away with this Wild West Challenge! I had to upload them as 2 separate households
    Theme: Wild West
    Gallery Name: Wild West Cowboys
    Wild West Ladies
    Gallery ID: sarabeth6701d
    Gallery Links: https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/pc/gallery/F82ACB0E059511EB86FF52514E992084
    https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/pc/gallery/6B89CCB8059611EB896F52514E992084
    Is CC used? Nope!

    So here’s what who I made and their bios:
    First the Cowboys:
    Esteban”Boss” Trujillo
    h0ZY0xl.png
    Traits: Family oriented, ambitious, self-assured
    Aspiration: Big Happy Family/Successful Lineage
    Career: Gardening (closest to ranching we have) mid-level
    Swagger walk style and Adult
    ClzuuTR.png
    Bio under spoiler
    Esteban is better known as “Boss” by his employees and friends. He’s had a tough life, even though he’s only in his 40s. Esteban’s family has held a large and stately ranch for nearly 100 years just outside of the dusty town of Strangerville. He has expanded on his homestead and built up his herds of cattleplants. Esteban grew up working as a cowboy. He and his fellow cowhands would drive thousands of cattleplants in massive herds for 100s of miles on the trails to deliver them to the depots up north for sale. He’s seen a lot and had plenty of adventures along the way! But now Esteban wants to settle down and start a family. yQmSou8.png
    His hobbies include hanging out with his friends around the campfire, gardening, and playing the guitar. He has some life skills and maxed in guitar. Helping him during all his adventures is his loyal ranch hand “Slinky.” PCGhwoR.png

    Sven “Slinky” Sigurdson
    mbLXFt9.png
    Traits: Goofball, clumsy, bro
    Aspiration: Friend of the World
    Career: Manual labor-landscape artist (equivalent to ranchhand)
    Goofy walk style, and a young adult
    JAh0p1y.png
    “Slinky” as he is known by his friends, immigrated to Strangerville from cold and snowy Windenberg with his parents when he was a toddler. When he was 12, his parents suddenly contracted rabid rodent fever and did not survive. Esteban took the boy under his wing and taught him everything he knows about running a ranch. He considers him as a son, and Sven thinks of Esteban as a father. Esteban hopes Sven has the makings of becoming a successful ranchhand. But sometimes he has his doubts, Sven is a bit of a klutz and is constantly breaking things. OgGira3.png
    He also likes to hang out with the guys a lot and joke around. Sven hopes he can become a Ranch Manager soon too but he gets distracted by his love of music a bit too much. Slinky’s favorite pastime is playing the grand piano at the local saloon for the lovely Miss Susie during her song and dance routines. N6fMJdn.png
    But maybe it's more Miss Susie he likes to spend time with!

    Bass “Marshal” Travis
    DvZf2lc.png
    Traits: Self-assured, genius, good
    Aspiration: Renaissance Sim
    Career: Detective (mid level)
    Tough walk style and adult
    ZHwNjmS.png
    I based him directly on Bass Reeves, the first African-American Deputy Marshal. I so wish more people knew about him. The original Bass Reeves grew up as a slave on a farm in Arkansas. When he was a young man, he was forced to join the Civil War by his enslaver. He developed a reputation and was well respected for his ability to lead, fight, and strategic planning. He gained his freedom. After the Civil War, he spent time living with the Cherokee, Seminole, Cree Tribes and learned their languages. He worked as a guide for a time. He was soon recruited into law enforcement by Judge Isaac Parker. He was appointed Deputy Marshal he singlehandedly brought an estimated 3000 felons to justice, he killed 14 dangerous outlaws in self-defense, (he was purportedly a pacifist and preferred to capture his criminals alive and well) and never once received a gunshot wound over a 32 year career. He married twice and had 11 kids. He worked in law enforcement until the age of 68. He retired and passed away at the age of 71. My little paragraph about him here does nothing to touch on the real life and adventures of Bass Reeves. Google him!
    Anyway, I named my sim version Bass “Marshal” Travis. “Marshal” is respected and feared around town, as he is the town Sheriff. lRPSRR7.png
    He keeps an eye on the goings on around the little dusty town of Strangerville. Its a peaceable place for the most part but lately “Greasy Jim” Reynolds, the local card shark has been causing trouble. Bass here was in hot pursuit of Greasy Jim 1SmyHcR.png
    The horse is a bike mod. Its animation is janky but it makes for amazing screenshots!!
    Bass’ hobbies include playing the guitar and star-gazing. He has some life skills

    “Greasy Jim” Reynalds
    fKmxhDP.png
    Traits: Evil, jealous, kleptomaniac
    Aspiration: Public enemy
    Career: Criminal- mid-level
    Tough walk style and young adult
    0KKJAPR.png
    Greasy Jim as he is known around town, is the local thug and trouble maker. r1D9uxP.png
    He’s an evil guy at heart who loves to cheat at cards, pick pocket, and steal. He wants to form a notorious crime syndicate but finds all his efforts thwarted by Sheriff Travis. oSTWyv8.png
    The only person he has never won a card game against was the indomitable Ms. Kate Calvert.
    His hobbies include watching Miss Susie Devereaux sing, getting jealous of Slinky Sigurdson, cheating at cards, and twirling his mustache evilly.

    Pruitt Penderghast
    SYGiYNh.png
    Sorry I caught him mid blink
    Traits: squeamish, perfectionist, and cheerful
    Aspiration: Renaissance sim
    Career: Retail
    Bouncy walk style and young adult
    7XKKmrg.png
    Ever perky Pruitt Pendherghast runs the local dry goods store, post office, telegram office, train station, and bank. Fortunately for Pruitt they are all contained in the same building! Pruitt’s parents moved here during the frontier days of Strangerville. He knew farm and ranch life was not for him and jumped on the opportunity when the store job opening came open qDDCPUF.png
    Pruitt’s hobbies include crunching numbers and playing chess. He's known for being a bit of a dandy

    Fr. Mathias Brown
    ajiNb99.png
    Traits: Good, family-oriented, cheerful
    Aspiration: Friend of the World
    Career: doctor: mid level
    Bouncy walk style and adult
    vvgB0zT.png
    Local preacher Mathias Brown has been pastor to the town of Strangerville for years, as well as undertaker and doctor. 0MlCZDu.png
    He’s a bit of a gossip and nosy but everyone loves him. He is the first to arrive when someone is sick with medicine and a batch of chili. His hobbies include cooking, reading, and making friends. k2Ox3lC.png

    Now for the ladies!

    Mrs. Kate Calvert:
    MmwvIUb.png
    Traits: Ambitious, family oriented, cheerful
    Aspiration: Big happy family
    Career: Mixology-mid level
    Normal walk style and young adult
    7MoIj5J.png
    The young widow Mrs. Kate Calvert runs the local boarding house and saloon, 8 Bells Bar in downtown Strangerville. Kate is originally from Willow Creek and ran a boarding house, saloon, and laundry business there. But after her husband, John, passed away in an accident at work, she was in need of a fresh start. They loved running their business together and it was too painful to stay. She and her young son William moved to Strangerville.
    She bought an old boarding house for ladies and saloon. After she fixed it up, it has since become the most popular place in town! Ms. Kate wants to run a reputable place. No seedy business goings on here, not like the Bordello down the street. She and her son live upstairs along with the rest of her tenants. Kate’s hobbies include spending time with her son, her best friend Agatha, reading, and running her bar. Kate has some interesting tenants, including her best friend Agatha Cunningham r6lSX8q.png Susie Devereaux, and Primrose Spencer
    Local rancher Esteban Trujillo has been making a few romantic gestures her way. Maybe he plans on courting her? He often comes into town to visit her saloon and exchange a few friendly words with her. x7xYIFf.png
    I like Kate and her son! I based them directly on my great-great-great grandmother, also named Kate. The real life Kate owned and ran a boarding house and laundry services business but she was originally from New Orleans. She was widowed and moved to Fort Worth with her son for a fresh start. She raised her son and put him through college. Kate was a cool person! According to my elderly relatives she was spunky, vivacious, and had a wicked sense of humor. She loved to dress in colorful clothes, played a mean game of poker, and lived to her late 90s.

    William “Billy” Calvert
    uVTDbTC.png
    Traits: genius
    Aspiration: Whiz kid
    avOHWmS.png
    Billy is your typical loveable scamp. I went with the messenger boy-look for him. He’s your typical 8 year old boy. Playing, making friends, and getting into trouble P5KaXnF.png


    Miss Susie “Dove” Devereaux
    TbwZcgu.png
    Traits: Romantic, outgoing, cheerful
    Aspiration: Musical genius
    Career: Musician
    Feminine walk style and young adult.
    LY5iocS.png
    Miss Susie “Dove” Devereaux was originally from San Myshuno. She moved to Strangerville when her parents passed away. She wanted a fresh start. The only place she was able to find work was the bordello up the street. Miss Susie was dazzled by her lifestyle at first but quickly wearied of it. She soon had a less than proper reputation around town and dreamed of something better. She always wanted to become an entertainer. Fortunately, she met her current employer, Ms. Kate Calvert. Ms. Kate runs a reputable business and is always concerned for the well being and safety of her boarders and employees. Susie rents a suite of comfortable rooms upstairs and works as a waitress and entertainer at the saloon in the evenings.
    Susie is a character, she’s a tad self-absorbed and flirty, but she has a heart of gold. She loves her friends and coworkers. She’s known for her bleach blond hair, flashy dresses and bubbly personality. She especially loves to sing when her beaux “Slinky” comes in to play the piano. See Slinky's photo above

    Miss Agatha Cunningham
    itkURQX.png
    Traits: Self-assured, creative, loves the outdoors
    Aspiration: Best selling author
    Career- Journalist
    Bouncy (or perky I can’t remember) and young adult
    KIMZXyS.png
    Nosy Miss Agatha is originally from conservative Brindleton Bay. She entered the feminist movement and wanted to break with tradition and become a woman with a career! She moved to Strangerville when she got a job at the local newspaper. She also likes to write articles on the wild west goings on and sells them back east to big papers in San Myshuno. Miss Agatha rents rooms from Ms. Kate. She and Kate soon became best friends. 4xLVsWN.png
    Miss Agatha is very nosy and she is always first to find out the latest gossip around town.
    Miss Agatha bursts through the door to tell the nearest person about the latest gossip (actually a thunderstorm lol)
    axSsmLx.png
    She loves the outdoors and can often be seen taking her exercise on the trails and byways around town. Miss Agatha’s hobbies include riding her bike, hanging out with Kate, writing, and gossiping with friends.

    Miss Primrose Spencer
    cePRbiB.png
    Traits: Unflirty, Bookworm, Neat
    Aspiration: Nerd brain
    Career: Teacher
    Snobby walk style, adult
    A1smLlf.png
    Fussy Miss Primrose Spencer is the town School marm. She is a self-proclaimed spinster and loves her job. She rents a set of rooms from Miss Kate and walks everyday to the local schoolhouse/library. She’s originally from Newcrest and has lived in Strangerville for years.
    Her hobbies include reading the latest novels, knitting, and spending time with Fr. Mathias Brown. They meet for coffee or tea every afternoon after her classes. acsLVJD.png
