Amazon Challenge: Generation 1

Message from: Admin

This thread currently has mild swearing, no sexual content, and mild violence. *All characters will either be originals created by me or from the game itself. This will not be a story. Instead, this will be more like a commentary. This will still be the Amazon Challenge, but I don't want to do a story. I just want to show off what's going on in my game. Each post will have 4 pictures. (Yes, this challenge is kinda messed up, but it's all in good fun. It's all fiction. My real world views are that I believe in equality for both genders.) Oh and one more thing. I was inspired by this person to do my own Amazon Challenge. Go check her out. I love her story! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTPhdj ... WZ5OQBxbXg

My Setup

Ok so, in Dragon Valley, first off the bat I moved the school from its normal lot to a lot more in town. Then I deleted the empty lots. I also deleted an empty community lot and put my starter home lot in its place.

Next, I put in a Casino, a Renaissance Faire, the Greenhouse, Nectary, Martial Arts Academy, Bot Emporium, Elixer Consignment Store, custom vampire lounge (https://modthesims.info/d/424745/the-cr ... ounge.html), custom supernatural hangout (https://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.ht ... Id=7719948)

Finally I moved in my Vivica Adexis sim into the starter home lot. (I like how she's looking right at me here. Like "Really? This place is where I live?!" As if she's expecting a castle right away. Humble beginnings, madam, humble beginnings. )


Next I got her a job in the Monarchy Career (https://modthesims.info/d/485992/the-mo ... areer.html) as she is a Queen. Then I had her go buy some groceries because I have the no shopping from fridge mod (https://www.nraas.net/community/No-Fridge-Shopping)


As she was shopping, the Mascot appeared. I fixed that using Nraas!


Finally, I had Vivica go to the library and open a bank account (https://modthesims.info/d/438835/non-co ... -67-2.html) and I added in some doorways because the routing is horrendous! You shouldn't have to take 2 different stairways (right next to each other) just to get to the next room beside you on the same floor! (I'm going to replace that library as soon as Vivica's done here.)

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

After she got home, I updated her house a bit.


Now I am going to work on her skills and get her up to the top of her career. I am keeping track of all that here (click her name to view more): https://archive.ladyarluna.net/BecksToo ... index.aspx
Now, I don't want to wait forever for Vivica to reach level 10 in her career, so at the end of all her work days, I am going to level her up to the next level of the career using my Nraas mod. However, I am going to take her job required skills into consideration. She has to improve her skills up to Outstanding, before I can level her up in her career.


I extended her living room a bit to help make her new chess table fit.
I also bought her a clock and used Nraas Relativity to make time go at 0.50 (the magic 'set speed' number is 19) I also am editing how fast her Energy goes up (motive delta factors/Energy). I'm bumping that up to 75, so they won't spend so long sleeping! (It's how I like to play my game.) Skill Gain Factor... I'm bumping that (All) up to 50 as an experiment just to see how fast that goes. (Oh yeah. Skill building up to level 10 now just takes no time at all. I just gave my sim a whole bunch more time to do other things.)


Ok. I had her start on her Chrisma skill. She needs friends in order to get up to level 10. Well, testingcheatsenabled is... enabled... so... why not get her some Lifetime Points...

She now has...

• Fast Metabolism
• Profession Simoleon Booster
• Immune to Cold
• Immune to Heat
• Stone Hearted
• Eye Candy
• Fast Learner
• Observant
• No Jealousy
• Never Dull
• Master of Seduction
• Attractive

So Vivica is going to head across the street, and meet Fintan Mithrilen.
*Crash just as her carpool showed up. #1 rule in gaming: SAVE AND SAVE OFTEN! So that whole Fintan visit didn't happen. I get to do that again! So let's see if we can get him to... "donate".

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

Carpool with no crash. Good. Ok all her required skill are Outstanding, so when she gets home, I can promote her.


Ok so now she has put a bit of money away into her account. She has $105.25 stashed away and her household funds is currently $1,800. Speaking of money, bills must be paid. $77 currently. I mean I could make bills harder but... She has a future castle to build, so no. No harder bills.


These certificates came in the mail too. I am going to delete them right off the wall instead of sell them. I want her to earn her money through working. I'm trying not to give her "free" money.


So it seems she didn't have any luck with Fintan, so she's moving on to the next um... "donor", Dermont Cullen.

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

So Vivica is trying again with Fintan (after no luck with Dermont) and while she's with him upstairs, Fintan's wife is going into labor! Vivica obviously does not care if the man has family. She just wants to see her Dynasty grow. I heard the kid screaming and I was like "What is that noise?" ...and I discovered this.


Yup, just enjoying a bowl of soup before she goes. Come on, Vivica. At least help out a woman in need. Don't grow a cold, black heart.


She took pity on the woman and decided to bring her to the hospial. From then on, Vivica decided that every member in her Dynasty should do the same. Help out women in need. Turns out the woman had a girl. Vivica felt she did the right thing (well, kinda?) (I love Vivica's look in her work outfit and her hair up like that. She looks ready to take on some super important stuff as a Baroness.)


The next day Vivica went to work, leaving the house a mess. The quicker she gets to 10 in her career, the quicker she can get some help. No, I don't want to hire a maid for her.

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

Yup! Vivica's pregnant! She will not be able to keep the kid at this time (because her house isn't built for that) so she'll have to give it up to the family ( ) and they'll be banished from her realm (deleted). Do you see what I'm doing now? I'm getting rid of the families I don't like while the Nraas mods move in new, random sims. I know I could just delete them but doing it this way is more fun.


Expecting, and she wants a girl. Now I have to be careful not to give her watermelons or apples. You know what? I'm raiding her fridge and removing those! Oh and during her maternity leave, I can't level her up in her career. She has to physically go to work in order for me to do that.


Shower broke! Time for her handiness to go from nothing to max! Hm, do I have that a bit too fast?


Just days later, Vivica had a boy. To her it was no loss. She gave the baby to the family and told them to move out of her realm. The wife, wholeheartedly, obliged. ( ) Vivica then had their home demolished and a new home was to be built in its place.

((I just realized, Vivica is literally a home wrecker. Damn, she's brutal! "I had your son. Here he is. Now take your family and get out of my town! Oh and I'm demolishing your former home too."))
I also removed some of her days off.

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

Vivica is visiting Quinn Flanagan... and what did she do? "Omg you have a TV! I absolutely MUST do my work out!" NOPE! Your Athletic is maxed out. You are going to stop that behavior (thanks to Nraas)!


Quinn will be moving out soon with his offspring....


Dang. As a Duchess, Vivica gets to take a limo to work. Nice.
So all her skills are now maxed out. I'm just waiting for her to get to the top of her career.


I think I'm going to have to put her lot onto a bigger lot. She's eventually going to have 6 other ladies living with her and she needs the space for them.
Edit: Actually... I'm thinking of a new design off the livingroom. I might not need to move this house onto a bigger lot.

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

She's finally High Queen and has enough money to buy a second lot in town. She's got some big plans. Another thing she wants to do is find her Guardian. She's looking for a woman who has at least the Active and/or Brave traits.

She's now reached the top of her career. Time to move in a new lady (specifically her new Guardian)!


Ok, I basically used Morida O' Connell as a base and turned her into Vivica's Guardian, Myrina Azonza.


Vivica talked to her about her role. The tiara she's wearing is to be worn at all times, and serves as her "badge of office". All her outfits must have the color blue on most of the outfit, as blue represents the Guardian role. Myrina not only protects the Queen but must help out in the household chores (repairing and cleaning), as they don't have a Menial at this time. Her most important job is to have at least one female offspring, but they'd worry about that at a later date. She also must help bring in money, so she is in Law Enforcement.


Myrina didn't bring in any money but Vivica had some money saved up, so she arranged for her small home to have an upgrade. I chose to go with bunk beds to save on space.
Now Myrina needs to get to the top of her career and all her skills up to max. Meanwhile Vivica is going to start building her castle.

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

Myrina has finally made it to level 10 of the Law Enforcement Career! Vivica has now tasked her with finding their Provider.


Just a few hours later, Myrina and a woman named Lorilei walked through the door. She brought in $50,000!


Modified their yard a bit so I am able to fit all their cars. I hope I have enough room to fit all their beds. Obviously that room will need to be extended. I just hope I am able to eventually fit everything... Screw it, I'm putting in the rest of their beds and cars right now.


Woah! Vivica and Lorelei! Is that in the rules? Can the queen have one of her own ladies as a consort?

-The creator can not be married but other amazons can marry each other.

Ok but what about just having a consort? I'm ok with it. They can be together, they just can't get married. I'm updating my rules.
(Yes, I did change the livingroom carpet and walls. Too much green.)

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

Awww!


Lorilei is finally at the top of her career! Now she is tasked with finding their Scholar. She's looking for a woman who has at the very least the Genius trait and/or the Bookworm trait.


Lorilei eventually found Roxi Shkoda. (made from https://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.ht ... d=8320124#) Welcome to the Adexis Dynasty, Roxi!


Added a new couch and rearranged the living room a bit. (I have to eventually be able to fit 7 sims in here. Vivica, your house is SMALL!)

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

Lorelei just turned the tv on while Myrina was upgrading it. Lorelei, you better hope that Myrina doesn't get electrocuted, or the Queen will be pissed!
Edit: She's fine.


Updated the kitchen.


While learning Scuba diving for her job, Roxi met a merman. I was not expecting that. (Dragon Valley doesn't have any dive lots so I made one on the fly. That's why this one is so barren. I'm not interested in using dive lots. It's only because it's skill requirement for her job.)


Queen Vivica has asked Lorelei to step up in her role. She has been tasked to find rocks and gems. She must cut and sell them to help the Dynasty's funds grow.

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

So I just got my Guardian, Myrina to work, then a popup happened saying she's wondering why it suddenly got dark. I think that's a meteor... I really hope it doesn't hit her while she's at work! Yeah there are sims standing outside her work place pointing to the sky... Please game, don't kill her! There's a shadow of it right above her work place (circled in red) and it's getting bigger fast! Omg game, please no!

Ok so I just read that sims in rabbitholes can die from a meteor strike! [email protected]#%!!!! I told her to run to a nearby lot. I really hope she gets out in time! Here we go. I'm going to press play... I hope we don't have a funeral on our hands!!!

She's safe at a nearby lot. Now I'm just waiting for it to hit.




The meteor left some goodies! I'm having Myrina go back to work while Lorilei comes and collects the rocks and stuff. The only thing that got destroyed on impact was the statue outside.

((Due to a glitch, I had to change Roxi's career. She's a level 9 Scientist now.))


Since Roxi is almost level 10 in her career, Vivica needs to decide on her next Division to fill. Artist, Animal Sage, or Priestess. Kinda want to go with Artist. Playing a Priestess will be fun but I think I'm going to go with Artist first.

((That story teller in me is creeping up. I want to start writing this as a story. For me, this is getting interesting. I'm going to hold off for now and see if this feeling stays and grows or if it just fizzles out.))

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

Myrina! What are you doing?! ((I didn't tell her to do this!)) Why are you in some random sims' home, getting (stealing) food?! You have food in the fridge at home. ((I checked.)) Stop and go home. Besides, you're the Guardian! Your place is with your Queen and dynasty. Now go home! ((Oh this game!))


I'm trying something...


I had her plant the weird seed she created.


Roxi has reached level 10 in the Science career and now the Queen has tasked her with finding their Artist.

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

Lorelei harvested and gave the forbidden fruit to Roxi, who ate it. It had a pleasantly sweet taste, but not long after, she started feeling a bit strange. Why was this happening? Roxi decided to wait it out and see if this feeling passed.

((Yeah, I think it's turned into a story. I can't help myself sometimes. I love it. ))


Minutes after the Queen went to work, Roxi felt very strange. This was scary. Myrina watched in horror as Roxi's body began to change.


A puff of green smoke seemed to come from Roxi as Myrian called in Lorelei.


Roxi's beautiful pale skin turned green. Her golden hair and even her clothes transformed into leaves. Roxi had turned into a PlanSim. What was the Queen going to think? ((She leaves a trail of flowers and leaves behind her when she walks! ))

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

Roxi looked at herself in the mirror. What had that fruit done to her? Her soft skin, her long blonde hair, even her beautiful gown. It was all gone. Her curiosity about discovering a new seed had gotten the better of her. This wasn't good. She was sure the Queen was going to be very angry about this. The Amazon women were suppossed to be beautiful, not... whatever this was staring back at her in the mirror. Roxi called in Lorelei.


"I need your help to change me back. The Queen will kick me out for sure if she finds out!" Roxi said, panicked.
"I honestly have no idea how to fix this. We would need some kind of magic spell or something." Lorelei replied.
"I'm going to be stuck like this forever." Roxi pouted.
"I hate to say it, Roxi, but the Queen has to know. I'm sure she will know how to help you."
"I don't want to be kicked out."
"You need to explain to her what happened. She might be understanding. I mean, you're our Scholar. It's your job to look into this kind of stuff so we know what to avoid in the future. Obviously, forbidden fruit is an issue we will need to avoid." Lorelei explained.
Roxi sighed.
"I hope you're right."

Roxi waited anxiously for 2pm to come. That was when the Queen would come home.

As 2pm got close, Roxi asked Lorelei to tell the Queen where she was when she got home. Then Roxi went into the bedroom to await her.


Roxi told the Queen what had happened to her.
"This does interrupt my plans a bit, but, it's minor. Instead of you finding my Artist, I want you to find my Priestess. If she can successfully change you back, you both stay in my Dynasty." Vivica said. "Do you understand?"
"Yes, your Majesty." Roxi said meekly.
((She means Roxi and the Priestess in case you were confused.))


Roxi spent the rest of the afternoon scowering the town in search of their new priestess. She soon came across a small home and met a peculiar woman with gold eyes. They got to know each other and, although the woman wasn't powerful enough to cure Roxi right now, she knew it was possible to do so. Roxi soon invited the woman, named Astrid La Rouge, to join the Adexis Dynasy as their Priestess.
Later that evening, Astrid and Roxi had arrived at the small home. Astrid talked with the Queen.
"Your Majesty, I'm not very skilled at the moment, but if you give me time to practice, I can create a potion that might help your Scholar, Roxi."
"Very well. I expect her to be back to normal by the time Winter arrives."
Autumn was schedualed to begin the very next day. She had a little bit less than 30 days to get her task done.
"Your Highness, may I use some of the budget to buy myself an alchemy table? It's a necessity I need for my task."
"Yes, Astrid."
"Thank you, your Majesty."

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

Astrid got to work.


"How do you feel now?" Astrid asked her after throwing the bottle at Roxi's feet.
"I feel great!" She beamed.
"Well that's good, but it seems you're not human yet. I'll keep working on it." Astrid said.
"Ok, good luck." She said as she walked away, whistling a cheerful tune. ((Potion of Bliss. ))

Day after day, potion after potion, and spell after spell, nothing was working so far.

Finally, after a couple weeks of study, Astrid finally figured out the recipie for Cure Elixer! Now she just needed to gather the ingredients and make the potion!


Astrid bought some of the ingredients at the local Elixer store and used their Alchemy station to make the potion.


Astrid was confident she used all the right ingredients as she bottled up the glowing blue potion. She rushed home only to find that Roxi was a work. Thankfully she'd be home soon.

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

As soon as Roxi stepped into the house, Astrid rushed her back outside.
"I have the cure. All you need to do is stand there, like before." Astrid instructed.
"Alright." Roxi said skeptically.
Astrid threw the potion at her feet.
Roxi felt the familiar strange feeling as the cloud from the potion enveloped her.


The potion was a success (for the most part? Gonna fix her hair.) and both ladies could stay in the clan. (Well done Astrid! )


"Thank you, Astrid."
"You're very welcome, Roxi."

((Right now, I'm working on getting Astrid up to level 10 in her career. I've already changed Roxi's hair back to normal.

...And Lorelei just found Tiberium! I'm going to cut it and let it grow. I'm very intersted to see how much money they get from those!))

$41,469, $40,040, and $36,777! The total of that is.... (carry the 2.. MATH SUCKS! Where's a calculator? On my phone. Ok...) $118,286!!! *dead* Holy f*&*ing hell!!!! On top of that, they have $55,225 saved up. Combined that is $173,511!! (Almost 200 GRAND!!) Of course the Queen wants it to go toward the Palace. Yup. I'm doing more of my speed build.

As Fall wore on, tension began to stir between Lorilei and Astrid. Lorilei was suspicious of Astrid and her witchy powers. She feared that Astrid would overthrow Queen Vivica using her spells and elixers, though she did not tell the Queen as to not worry her. She assumed the Queen was far too busy with the construction of the Palace and planning out their future.

One day, as she made lunch, Lorilei quietly confronted Astrid in the small kitchen. Astrid was not about to take these accusations against her lightly. She warned Lorilei to stop and to really drive it home, she discretely cast a small fire blast spell at her, as she knew the Queen was just in the other room.

(( Astrid! That's the Queen's consort you just lit on fire!))

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

"You tell the Queen of this, Lorelei, and I will take you down with me." The gold eyed Priestess warned the Provider. "Stay out of my business." She then grabbed the water spray from the sink and sprayed the fire out just as the other ladies rushed in.

"What the hell is going on in here?!" Queen Vivica demanded.
"My lady, Lorelei was cooking and she caught herself abalze. I saved her." Astrid said with confidence.
"Thank you... Astrid." Lorelei hesitated. She quickly left the room to go clean herself up.


"Astrid, I am very grateful you saved my Provider and Consort. Thank you."
"I am glad to be of service to your Majesty. Know that should you need me, I'll be there." Astrid said with a respectful bow of her head.


Over the next few days, Queen Vivica had more work done on the palace. She had a banquet room, a quiet sitting room, and a living room added to the east wing, while she added two small laundry rooms on either side of the Grand Staircase. (The doors to these two rooms are more discrete.) The backyard also had some work done. Their funds had whittled down to $5,600. The ladies needed to continue to work hard and build up their funds again.
((I decided not to record it.))


Days later, Astrid found a woman named Maylin Chaelith. She learned that Maylin loved animals. She'd be perfect for the Animal Sage role! Soon, Maylin joined the Adexis Dynasty.

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

As time went on, tensions began to run high. Astrid and Vivica got into a heated argument. Astrid was wondering why they couldn't move into the palace right now. Vivica said it wasn't ready yet. Astrid demanded proof that there even was a palace! The Queen argued back that it wasn't the right time. Astrid had finally lost her temper and toadified the Queen!


Myrina had just gotten home from work. She was exhausted and, for a moment, wanted to just sherk her duties as a Guardian. However, after witnessing Astrid's actions, she decided against it and stepped in to defend her Queen. Myrina confiscated Astrid's wand.
"If we can't trust you to use magic responsibly, you won't be a member of our Dynasty anymore." She warned the Priestess. "You'll get your wand back when the Queen gives me the order. Now, on threat of banishment, how do we cure our Queen?" She asked.
Astrid was quiet for a moment. There was a cure elixir, but she wanted to be entertained.
"The only way to cure her majesty is to get kissed by someone else." She hid her smile as she looked over at Lorilei.


With a froggy croak, Vivica walked over to her consort.


It really wasn't the most pleasant kiss but Lorilei did it.


Unfortunately the kiss had failed!

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

Myrina was quickly losing patience.
"No more games! Tell us how to fix our Queen!" She demanded!
"Fine. I can make an elixir that will-"
"No! I'll go buy one myself, but you're coming with me so I can keep an eye on you! Lorilei, you're in charge until we get back!" Myrina huffed.


...and off they went.


"Do you have a Cure Elixir for sale? It's very important."
"No, sorry. They've only recently ran out of stock. We'll be getting them in soon."
Myrina sighed. "Well, do you have the recipe? I can try my hand at making it."
"There's an Alchemy table over there for you to practice. It's an easy potion to make."
"Thank you."


Astrid relaxed by the fireplace as she heard Myrina struggle to make a simple potion.

[Phoenix Flaming Star]

As Myrina finished the potion, back home, something else was going on with Maylin...



The ladies watched in horror as she transformed into her werewolf state!


After Myrina and Astrid got home, Roxi was fixing the dishwasher and started a fire!

Off Topic

It's just total chaos in this household right now!
