Click here for the Tarot Legacy Challenge
Start with a single founder in a new save.
Each generation follows the theme of a Major Arcana Tarot card, completing its unique goals and embracing the fate of the tarot card pulled.
Each heir must fulfill their generation’s goals before passing onto the next.
You may draw your Tarot card for the next generation when the first heir is born. You are welcome to choose any of your current heir’s children to be the next generation’s heir.
This challenge will include all packs so feel free to modify to fit your needs when necessary. This was created with Life & Death as the most recent expansion pack. As new packs release, you are more than welcome to modify the rules for the new content.
Play on any lifespan and with any mods or cheats you’d like– whatever makes the challenge more fun for you, have at it. Add any little twists that you’d like to spice up gameplay. If you want to use different traits/aspirations/careers than listed, go for it! Again, whatever you feel fits your playstyle best. Just try your best to stay aligned with the Tarot theme of that generation.
You can play as many or as few generations of this legacy challenge as you’d like. You don’t have to play all 22 generations. I would recommend a minimum of 5 just to make it a “legacy” – but follow your intuition 😌✨🔮

STRAUD - A VAMPIRE STORY.

Transcript under cut:
A few weeks ago.
[Carmilla, off-screen:] I am not sure I understand.
Vladislaus: It is simple, truly. The Vatores have been reckless in their disrespect of the rules I have set in place, for all of our sakes. Caleb in particular has been vocal about his ideas of 'coexisting' with mortals. He says our way of living is ... barbaric.
[Off-Screen, Vladislaus:] So I need you to seduce the young Mister Vatore, to keep him loyal to the Straud name.
Vladislaus: Put those selfsame talents you used onto me, and make him want you, like the beautiful prize you are.
Current day.
Vladislaus: Miss Vatore, would you tell me of your travel to Italy? I do miss her dearly.
[Lilith, off-screen:] Oh, it's beautiful this time of year. The waves are a gorgeous azure color, the beaches ...
Caleb: !!!
[Caleb, in low tones:] Mistress Vatore, what- ... ?
[Carmilla, in low tones:] Do not make it so obvious.
Lilith: ... and of course, one cannot overstate how delightful the food is.
Vladislaus: It sounds like you've had a very enjoyable time, away from the Hollow ... Miss Vatore, do you know why I've said travel is to be avoided ?
Lilith: Master Straud ...
Vladislaus: The world of the mortals is beyond us, now. It is beyond dangerous, any mistake there is a death sentence. Here, you are safe, you are cared for.
Caleb: Master, if I may-
Vladislaus: You may not. Too long have you both disregarded the rules I have laid out for you. One day, you will make a mistake, and it will cost you your very life.
All: ...
Vladislaus: Now, about that dinner ...
My first build, I can't believe it. I can't build at all so this was a huge challenge for me. It's a very simple building without any cc, dont judge me I've never build from scratch so it isn't perfect but I'm kind of proud of it so I wanted to share it maybe someone makes use of it :). I built it for a small business to be a elementary teacher in my Silent Pines save. This build can be downloaded on my gallery (swinki4). I also created a cute teacher that is available on my gallery, she's perfect for this school and is without any cc as well.
ps. Cafeteria stand is not functional because I made mistake and instead of a stand from High school years I placed the one from Discover University, just replace it.
The Sims 4 World Map
The new world Nordhaven is still in question, but judging by the info that already exists, it should be near Windenburg. All worlds were placed based on the scenery of the cities, the plants in them and the weather.

2 months later…
Alexander: Happy Anniversary. Megan: They’re beautiful, thank you my love. Alexander: Are you about ready? Reservation is at 7. Megan: Almost, I just need five minutes.
Alexander: We’re off. Spencer, you’re in charge, be sure to keep these boys in line. Spencer: I will!
Asher: Ha! I am the undefeated champion!
Spencer: Until tonight.
Asher: Have I ever told you how cute you are when you concentrate like that? Atlas: Yes, now stop distracting me. Asher: I can’t help it. You look so seri—
Asher: Ahhhhahahaha!!!
Atlas: Oops.
Asher: You know whoever’s in charge has to make dinner, right? So, what are you making for us? Spencer: Hmm... Ice cream for me, and broccoli for you! Asher: Ooh yes! I love broccoli. We should add brussels sprouts too. Make sure you steam them so the whole house will smell like vegetables. Spencer: [giggles] Eww!
Atlas: How about I’m in charge and I’ll order pizza. Spencer: Can I still have ice cream? Atlas: Sure. After dinner. Spencer: Deal.
Spencer: When are your babies gonna get here? Atlas: Not for a while. Li isn’t due until January. Spencer: So, is Li going to be their mom? Asher: No, Li is just carrying them for us. Our babies don’t have a mom. Just two dads.
Spencer: Oh. Do the babies have names yet? Asher: One of them does. The girl is named Sadie. Spencer: Why doesn’t the boy have a name? Atlas: We haven’t found one we like yet.
Spencer: Can I help? Atlas: We’re open to suggestions, but no promises. Asher: Yeah, we gotta find one that feels right, y’know. Spencer: Well, you should make sure it starts with an ‘S’. Atlas: Why? Because your name starts with ‘S’? Spencer: No! Because Sadie starts with ‘S’. Your names both start with ‘A’ and the puppies’ names both start with ‘P’ so both the babies should start with ‘S’.
Asher: [considers] Sound logic. Atlas: Yeah. That narrows it down at least. Asher: ‘S’ name it is. Atlas: How about you brainstorm ‘S’ names while you get ready for bed. Spencer: Already? Atlas: Yep. Go on. Spencer: Fine. But there’s a kid in my class named Scott, and he’s mean. He made fun of my drawing in front of everyone, so you can’t name your baby Scott. Asher: Got it. It’s off the list. Now go.
Asher: Hey. You’re home early. Everything okay? Iris: Yeah, just tired. It’s been a long day. Is Spencer in bed already? Atlas: Not yet. She’s getting ready now. Iris: Perfect. Thanks for watching her. Asher: No problem. We had fun.
Iris: Just so you know, I invited Ezra over for dinner tomorrow. Atlas: Why would you do that? Iris: Because he’s my boyfriend, and I want him to meet my family.
Atlas: [rolling his eyes] I don’t know what you see in him. I swear you have the worst taste in men. Iris: Not as bad as my brother.
Asher: Guys, seriously, can you not do this tonight? Iris: Whatever. You don’t have to join us for dinner if you don’t want to, but he is coming and it’s kind of a big deal for me, so please don’t ruin it. Atlas: I won’t. Trust me, I’ll stay as far away as possible. Iris: Perfect.
Vlad doesn’t waste a moment before tackling Akira to the ground.
“Is this how you greet every visitor?”
“We don’t have visitors.” His eyes are wild as he wraps a hand around Akira’s neck. “We have enemies.”
That was a fucking understatement.
The Strauds greeted the mailman with a hatchet if the mood moved them, and they had a virtual graveyard hidden in these hills. Sims (it was always sims) seemed determined to fuck around and find out.
“Do I look like an enemy?” Akira teases. He's hoping to rile Vlad enough to throw him off his game, but the man is focused. Growling, he plunges his knife into Akira’s side. It’s unpleasant but also invigorating.
No fae ever died from anything so small as a knife wound. Healing it is almost as easy as breathing.
“Hold still!” Vlad hisses, as he pulls the knife out and lifts his arm to bring it down again. He tightens his hold on Akira’s neck, veins popping as he squeezes harder.
Lust and lightheadedness war as Akira snaps his arm up to block the knife’s descent. “I want you to know my devotion, but you get one.”
“I get as many as I need.” Vlad’s nostrils flare as he bares his teeth. “You have been haunting me!” He tries to thrust the knife in again. “You made me think I was crazy! I couldn’t sleep! I couldn’t eat. I thought you were a figment of my imagination!”
There’s a broken note in his voice that stops Akira cold. “Time out. You didn’t imagine me.” He pushes the knife away and sits up slightly, rubbing the bruises on his neck. “And I was never trying to make you feel crazy. That wasn’t my intent. You should not have seen me but I guess that was my bad.”
Gently, as if he hadn't just been trying to slit Akira's throat, Vlad reaches down and strokes the tips of Akira’s ears. “You are far prettier up close than I imagined,” he murmurs.
Akira shifts, suppressing a groan. This isn’t a great location for sex, but Vlad is literally sitting on his dick and looking at him like—
“Can I behead you?”
“What the fuck? No! Get off me!”
Vlad rolls to his feet and pockets the knife in one smooth movement. “I wasn’t asking permission. I just wanted to know if it was a viable method for killing you.”
The fucking ego on this guy.
“I am not telling you how to kill me,” Akira bites out. “In what universe would I pop into your yard to give you a crash course on how to eliminate me?”
“In the same universe where you’ve been hiding in the bushes like a rockstar cosplaying an assassin.”
“Excuse me?”
Vlad tilts his head, his eyes glinting silver in the moonlight. He really is gorgeous. “You’re wearing leather pants.”
Akira feels a blush rising at his blatant stare. “There is nothing wrong with leather pants. I don’t know why you would bring that up.”
Vlad doesn’t agree or disagree, he simply lunges. And that’s how Akira learns the sim is fast.
Preternaturally so.
His momentum works against him, though. As he twists, Vlad’s knees hit the pallet of construction bags behind him and he falls backward.
Akira dives after him, taking one blow to the jaw before dodging a second. “Are you finished?” he grounds out.
“No. I am just getting started. I could do this all night.”
The combination of conviction and breathlessness sends Akira’s pulse racing. “Yeah, I could too, but I think we’ve got better ways to pass the time.”
“Do you want a weapon?” Vlad purrs, but Akira has learned his lesson. The man could go from seduction to murder in under 60 seconds. He doesn’t relinquish his position, gripping Vlad’s thigh before he can kick out.
"Nope. And you’re not gonna kill me because you’re gonna date me."
“Date you?” Vlad goes still. “I’m flattered, but I couldn’t possibly. I’m already seeing someone.”
Leaning down until his lips are nearly by Vlad's ear, Akira whispers, “I know. She’s gonna date me too.”
