However, this does mean you can create a Movie Theater commercial lot (actual lot designation is up to you.)
Upright vacuum cleaners are available. (Bust the dust can now be enabled)

All rules from 1900s still stand with the following changes:
War Part 1: All male Sims who are a Teen, Young Adult, or Adult at the start of this decade, and all males Sims who become a Teen during this decade, must roll to see if they’re drafted for World War I. Rolling for war is done by anyone related or married into the bloodline. Random townies are not included!! This includes the husbands of the daughters in your family and their male children (even if they are no longer your primary household).
Males: On Wednesday in 1917, all males who are of age to adult) must individually roll for the draft. Any teen who comes of age before the end of 1918 must also roll as soon as they are old enough. Remember, “of age” in this era is 14 years old (Teen + 17 days). Exceptions: If the male is the only caretaker of children under the teen age (if the spouse had already died), or if the male in question had already rolled for the Erratic trait.
If you have StrangerVille, all males who are drafted are required to take the Military (Officer) career during active duty. If you do NOT have StrangerVille, have the sim quit their job, move the sim out for their deployment to a designated military lot. They are free to get a new job after the war. (These sims are not played during the war except for while on leave.)
Men who are on “active duty” (living in the military lots) are either moved back home, or invited home for their 24 hours of “Leave” after each deployment. They then roll for their next deployment and head back to the military lot.
World War I Rolls for Males
Wed 1917 – April 1919
The Draft: On Wednesday of 1917, all eligible males aged 14 (teen + 17) – 47 (Elder) must roll an eight-side die: (results at right) Teens coming of age during the war must also roll for the draft on their 14th birthday. Exemptions from draft: If the male is the only caretaker of children under the teen age (if the spouse had already died), or if the male in question had already rolled for the Erratic trait.
1-2 = Your sim was drafted for the war, see below for more rolls. 3-5 = Your sim was not drafted, but decided to volunteer anyway. 6 = Your sim manages to dodge the draft when their number is called by faking an injury. They are safe, but now must trade one trait for Paranoid. 7-8 = Your Sim’s number never gets called. They are safe and sound at home for the war.
Deployment #1:
Wed. 1917: 8 am – Sun. 1918: 8 am
Deployment #2:
Mon. 1918: 8 am – Thurs. 1918: 8 am
Deployment #3:
Fri. 1918: 8 am – Tues. 1919: 8 am
For EACH individual deployment, roll a ten sided die: (results at right)
1 = Your sim did not survive, kill them off with MCCC 2 = Your Sim was injured during the deployment, and must roll when they get home, but are free from the next deployments. 3-10 = Your sim survived, and spends 24 hours at home before being deployed again.
For any male injured in the war, roll a 8 sided die TWICE and replace TWO of their traits: (results at right) For any male who survives the entire war to return home, they must roll an 8 sided die ONCE and replace one of their traits: (results at right)
Unmarried Females: All unmarried, eligible females (without the Erratic trait – this includes divorced and widowed) must roll a 10 sided die at the beginning of the war (any Teens coming “of age” during the war must roll BEFORE they do their coming-of-age rolls to see their fate, as well). Those who roll to become nurses are also moved out to the military lots with the men, but do not come home again until the end of the war.
Married Females: must also do a roll at the beginning of the war. Many of these women got jobs in the states to help out the men overseas.
World War I Rolls for Females
Wed 1917 – April 1919
Unmarried females (without the Erratic trait) from the ages of 14-47 (Teen + 17 and Elder) must roll a 10 sided die on Wed 1917 to find out how the war affects them. (results below)
Married females without children, (or with a teen or family member who can watch the children) also make a roll with an 8 sided die if they are between the ages of 14 and 47 (Teen + 17 and Elder) on Wed. 1917 to find out how the war affects their life. (results below)
1 = Your sim signs up for the Nursing Corps, and becomes a full-fledged nurse. (See below) 2-3 = Your sim volunteers to become an aide nurse in the war. (also see below) 4-6 = Your sim gets a job stateside to help out the men overseas. Have them get both the Manual Labor and the Babysitting part-time jobs for the duration of the war, and quit them after. 7-10 = Life continues uninterrupted (as much as it can).
1-3 = Your sim gets a job stateside to help out the men overseas. Have them get both the Manual Labor and the Babysitting part-time jobs for the duration of the war, and quit them after. 4-8 = Life continues as “normal”
For Full-Fledged Nurses: If you have the Get to Work pack, your sim takes the doctor career and moves out to the military lot for the duration of the war. They are allowed leave, but cannot come home during the war. When they leave home, roll a twenty sided die. If they roll a 1 = they die from overwork and sickness, and don’t come home. Any other roll continues with their work overseas (but lose their job when they get home). (see at right for war results)
After the war, they must roll an eight sided die and replace one of their traits as follows: 1 = Gloomy 2 = Hot-Headed 3 = Clumsy 4 = Erratic 5 = Lazy 6 = Mean 7 = Paranoid 8 = Noncommittal
For aide nurses, these sims just move out to the military lot without the benefit of getting the Nurse job. As they are leaving home, roll a 20 sided die. If they roll a 1 = they die from overwork and sickness, and don’t come home. Any other roll continues with their work overseas. (see at right for war results)
After the war, they must roll an eight sided die and replace one of their traits as follows: 1 = Gloomy 2 = Hot-Headed 3 = Clumsy 4 = Erratic 5 = Lazy 6 = Mean 7 = Paranoid 8 = Noncommittal
Children:
Babies can now be fed with the bottle, and you do not need to hire a wet nurse if the mother dies. Males can now take care of babies and toddlers in the absence of a capable female caretaker.
Heir: If ALL the male Sims in your family die in the war (whether they are in the active household or have moved out), then (and only then) your oldest daughter’s husband can become the heir.
If he dies in the war, then move to the next oldest daughter’s husband. You must look at all the daughters who have moved out – the oldest daughter with a surviving husband must move with her entire family back into the active household and the husband will become the heir.
If you do not have a single male Sim left in all of your entire family, then you must have the oldest daughter remarry, and her new husband will become the heir (though he’s still got to go to war too). Keep going along this line of logic until you achieve a surviving male heir.

Rolling for death from sickness is now only required for elder sims. (See 1890 for directions)
Home/Building:
Drywall/Painted Walls are allowed.
Murphy beds are allowed.
Portable generators are allowed.

Electricity is allowed, but only in the form of lighting.
Indoor plumbing is allowed. However, still only bathtubs, no showers.

Males can move out by themselves on their “move out date” (rolled by the earlier chart) if they roll to be unmarried (and their inheritance is ready).
Children:
No using foods to influence the gender of the babies.
When your female sim gives birth, roll two six sided dice for each baby. If you roll doubles, the baby did not survive the birth – this is about a 16.7% chance. Then, roll the two dice again. If you roll two ones, the mother dies in childbirth. (irregardless of whether the child(ren) lived or died) This is about a 2.7% chance.
Births must occur at home.
Babies can only be fed through breastfeeding and not by bottle (unless the mother died – in which case, you need to hire a “wet nurse”.) Create a female sim (or move in a female townie and subtract 100 simoleons per day to pay her “wages”. She may be moved out once the babies are children.) On a related note: there must be a female that is at least a teen in the home to care for children until they are at least child age. See above for creating/moving in a caretaker if the mother dies.
Heir: Only male heirs are allowed. If there are no sons, then the eldest daughter’s husband may become heir.
Adoption is only allowed in the case of “neglected children” or orphans, and an adopted child can never be heir.
Health and Aging:
If you notice that your sim has become sick, roll a twenty sided die. Rolling a 1 means they didn’t survive the illness. Use MCCC to kill them off using the “exhaustion” death.
Only home remedies, no ordering medicine.
Once your sim reaches the Elder life stage, on each birthday, roll a six sided die. See “death rolls” for the difficulty chart.
Home and Building:
Use the Off-the-Grid lot trait for this first decade. This WILL mean filling your fridge with ice to keep food cold, and very limited stove usage. – including no birthday cakes.
No electricity. Use candles or lanterns to light up the house.
Outhouses required – no toilets in the home.

A small, personal greenhouse for your home is allowed, but large commercial farm greenhouses are not.

Vacations are not allowed, but camping is.
Archeology became more prevalent in the mid 20th century, but did exist in the 1800s, so you can travel to Selvadorada from the beginning (but keep in mind this would be incredibly rare, and definitely not a family vacation opportunity).
Veterinarians for house pets were not common – you may have a pet dog or cat, but you cannot take them to the vet if they are sick, and you cannot spay/neuter them. Small pets were not yet kept in the 1890s. Also, no pet clothing is allowed.

Warning: This is a challenge meant for mature audiences! I am not putting an age limit on it, but this challenge may not be for you if any of the following are true:
You don’t like your sims dying.
You don’t want to confront historical realities like racism, gender stereotypes, war, and other tough social issues.
You don’t use mods at all. (CC is optional, MCCC as a mod is not)
You’re not looking for a complex, rules-heavy, long challenge.
So.. that being said, I would imagine you have already heard of the Decades Challenge before. It’s been around for quite a while, and is basically taking one family from the 1890s to present day while trying to experience history as it was then. It’s terribly hard to get game play or even the rules to be completely accurate, but myself – and all the other people who have worked on this challenge – have tried very hard to make it as accurate as possible. This version is an adaptation on the base rules by CuteCoffeGal (who has done an AMAZING job, by the way), adding in a whole lot of random rolls and challenges or problems for each decade. I used a couple other Decades-like challenges, and some of my own ideas. Also of note: this is the history from a Caucasian American perspective. If you’re looking for another perspective, read on and check out some of the other links I have included in this first page.
Your military family and their push to get you to achieve became a way of life for you. You felt a pull to go a different direction with your life, however, and you want to work with your hands and make a real difference in the world. School was never an issue for you, and learning new things was a breeze. As you set out on your own, you adopt a more bohemian lifestyle, and spend as much time as possible making a difference in your hometown.
Move to Evergreen Harbor and get your neighborhood to a “Green” state.
Get four active Neighborhood Action Plans (preferably ones that help the neighborhood go “green”.) If needed, turn back on the NPC voting and footprint effects in game settings. You are welcome to turn it back on after this generation if you want.
Try to unlock all fabrication recipes (including ones from whichever branch of Civil Designer you chose)
Master Fabrication and Juice Fizzing skills
Try to get to the top of the Freelance Maker career (you’ll know you’re there when you get the award) and finish the Master Maker Aspiration before you quit to join the Civil Designer career and your second aspiration.
It might be a good idea to attend University again this generation (you could do the Freelance career to make money while attending classes), but I will leave that choice up to you.
The heir must get a fisherman job and get to level 3 in it before getting their official career as a YA. (Cannot take this job while in high school, so either graduate early, or spend some time in this career before getting the main career)
Get the Health Food Nut Lifestyle
Generation Twenty-Seven: Lime
You decide to break the family pattern, and you actually just want to really reconnect to nature. Your parents support your decision, but would prefer you stay at home. After some thought, you decide to set out on your own instead. You find a plot of land far away from the city and you move there with the money you have saved from your teenage fisherman job, but nothing else. With just a plot of land and the clothes in your suitcase to your name, you immediately get to work. You’ve goals to work on, and a house to build, although you are definitely conscious of your carbon footprint, so it’ll be a small house.
Career: Part Time Fisherperson (teen-YA), Gardener (either branch YA-elder)
Goals:
Start your sim with just enough money to buy the land.
Use the “off the grid” Lot Trait for this generation (Cannot own a TV, computer, or other electronics)
Build a Tiny Home
Get to level 3 (as mentioned in previous gen) in Fisherperson career BEFORE switching to the Gardener Career.
Master the Gardening, Fishing, Flower Arranging, and Herbalism skills.
Master all three aspirations (if you need to, using a youth potion is allowed)

Collect all of the Magic Beans from the rare plant seed packets, and turn into a plantsim at some point during the generation
Complete the Fish, Gardening (as much as possible), Insects and Frog collections.
Get the Technophobe Lifestyle
Generation Twenty-Eight: Gold
Your goal in life is the absolute opposite of your backwards parent. Living in a tiny house, eating vegetables, and always paying attention to your surrounding world and environment is not for you. Living paycheck to paycheck and off the proceeds of your farm is even more not your thing. You want money. Lots of it. And a home that shows exactly how much money you have made. To this end, you join the Acting career, and dedicate your life to the job and the celebrity. You move to Del Sol Valley, and are soon turning heads everywhere. You choose to adopt for the boost to your reputation rather than for the child, but you are sure they will be well cared for – you are, after all, paying for just that.
Traits: Self-Assured (this used to be Self-Absorbed, but you cannot take that as a child – if you want to switch to this later in life, feel free), Materialistic, Hates Children
Aspiration: Fabulously Wealthy, Mansion Baron, Master Actor or Actress
Career: Acting
Goals:
Finish all three aspirations. If you need more time, youth potions are okay.
Master the Charisma and Acting skills.
Attend the award ceremonies whenever they happen.
Become a level five celebrity.
Build a mansion in Del Sol Valley (up on the celebrity hill) and zone it with the Celebrity home lot trait (when you get your celebrity up high enough to warrant it, that is.)
Make sure there’s room in your home for hiring a live-in butler.
Make sure you’re seen in the hottest spots in town every weekend, and sometimes during the week, too.
Eat Healthy and work out to keep your body in good shape – but not so healthy that you end up eating like your parents did.
After you hit adulthood, adopt a child, and make sure it is well cared for with nannies and butlers.
Generation Twenty-Nine: Wood
You were regarded as a status object while growing up, and it was obvious your parent had no time for you or care for your thoughts and feelings. However, you found friends in the house’s staff, and grew up loved and cared for – if not by your actual adoptive parent, at least you had the love of someone who counted. The huge, expensive house you grew up in always felt cold and unwelcoming, so you spent most of your time in the staff’s area of the house, which was just the opposite – mostly because of the company. As you grew up, you knew you wanted to change the world one house at a time. Making your client’s homes exactly what your childhood mansion could never be was your ultimate goal. Once you hit adulthood, you dedicate yourself to raising a family with your spouse, and you encourage your child(ren) to be the very best at whatever they set their mind to.
Traits: Good, Creative, Outgoing
Aspiration: Successful Lineage
Career: Interior Decorator
Goals:
Complete the Successful Lineage aspiration. Much like in generation Twenty-One, finishing this aspiration after the next generation takes over is perfectly fine, and still counts.
Master the Interior Decorator Career
Do your absolute best to try to make each client’s home their dream home, paying careful attention to their likes and dislikes.
Build yourself a warm and cozy home, perfect for raising a family. Concentrate on having areas to socialize and spend time with each other.
Once you hit adulthood (and not before), find a spouse of your choosing and raise a family. You must have at least one child (either naturally or by adoption), and be at the Good Friends or higher relationship status with each of your kids.
Generation Thirty: Hunter Green
Your parents always wanted the best for you. For you, that meant doing something your illustrious family had never tried: creating a wholesome family farm to hopefully pass on to your children. You couldn’t think of anything better than giving your children something tangible, something that they could do to give back to the ailing planet earth.
Move to a large plot of land in Henford-on-Bagley (not in Finchwick, in other words – it needs to be at LEAST 30 by 40).
Complete the Country Caretaker Aspiration.
Max the Gardening, Cooking, and the Fishing skills.
Build up a full farm. This needs to include plenty of crops, an orchard, at least two cows, at least two Llamas, and at least two full coops of chickens.
Have both a bird tree and a rabbit hole on your property (after making friends with these animals in the wild), and have them help you with your gardening.
Build a pond on your land, and stock it with fish that you caught.
Win Each of the 8 Fair ribbons (even if it means bribing the judge!)
Have grown at least one Perfect Oversized Lettuce, Mushroom, Aubergine, Pumpkin, and Watermelon, and turn them into a decor item to preserve them!
Find and romance your perfect partner, and have at least 3 children (adoption is perfectly okay!). Keep your relationship high with all of your children, and involve them in the daily work of the farm: gardening, cooking, and caring for the animals.
Your parents were never home, and always seemed to have secrets. You bond with your nanny instead of them, and they teach you the value of hard work, love, and caring for your family. When you grow up, the last thing you want to do is walk around with your head in the clouds like your parents, and you vow to be a practical, productive member of society. You move far away from your parents, and end up living in the mountains near a ski resort. You are recruited by a local corporation, and quickly find a place you can really excel. You meet a local, and swear that love at first sight exists. When you’re not at work, you spend the rest of your time building a lasting, loving relationship with both your spouse and your children.
Traits: Romantic, Proper, Family-Oriented
Aspiration: Soulmate, Big Happy Family
Career: Salaryperson (either branch)
Goals:
Leave your home and family behind and move to the modern district of Mt. Komorebi
Master the Salaryperson career
Meet your spouse in a Mt. Komorebi district and designate one night a week as “date night” with them. Continue this tradition until either spouse dies.
Complete the soulmate aspiration, and get as far as you can in the Big Happy Family aspiration (it still counts if you finish this aspirations after the next generation has already taken over)
Have at least three children, and maintain a close bond with each of them.
Get the “Hungry for Love” Lifestyle
Generation Twenty-Two: Parchment (Cream)
You grew up in a loving and supportive home and were always pushed to be the best at whatever you tried. Your parent’s work ethic was inspiring, and you were determined to really make something of yourself. University seemed like the next logical step, and you studied for all you were worth. After graduating, you threw yourself into your new career, and were quick to make yourself a success. The only thing left was success in your personal life. You approach this with the same logic, finding your spouse working at a local library because you’ll have something in common – a love of books. Before long, you’re starting a family and working your way up the career ladder successfully. You stay close to your family, though, and you talk to at least one of them practically on a daily basis.
Traits: Genius, Bookworm, Ambitious
Aspiration: Academic
Career: Law and/or Education

Have at least two children. Adoption is okay.

Generation Twenty-Three: Magenta
Being the next generation to attend college was always expected of you. You tried to tell your parents that this simply wasn’t for you, but they wouldn’t hear of it. So, you went to college. You refused to live on campus, however, and you found an old house to rent. It didn’t occur to you to check the history of the house… until it was already too late. Unknowingly, you were drawn into the world of spirits – because this house was haunted. The entity that inhabited it wanted desperately to communicate… and you were the first target that was receptive to it’s pleas. As you got more and more interested in the arcane and trying to help this spirit, your studies suffered. Eventually, you quit college and launch a career as a paranormal investigator – to your parent’s chagrin. Despite their heavy disapproval, you forge ahead, becoming a success despite your parent’s misgivings. Eventually, you find a wife and start a family, but your heart remains in the spirit world, and your family life continues to suffer.

Generation Twenty-Four: Snow (White)
Your parent was lost in arcane knowledge and talking to entities. Seances and candles were everywhere as you grew up. You shied away from all that, however, and found other hobbies. You love tinkering and building new things. However, your real love lies in the mountains. Your dream is to get to the summit, but hitting the snowy slopes is also in your idea of the perfect day. You move as close to the real action as you can get, and spend all your free time either in your workshop working on a robot to do all of your household chores, or out in the cold with your friends. Friendship turns to love in the mountains, and one of your Snow Bro group becomes your spouse.
Attend The distinguished degree program at Foxbury University.
Join the Bot Savants Club and get to rank 3
After graduation, join the Mechanical Engineer career. Work from home as much as possible so you can spend most of your days on the mountains or in your workshop.

Your parent was always there for you, and you love them for it, but by the time you grow up, you are more than ready to leave the smog of the city behind forever. You pack your bags and move to the seaside in Sulani, determined that you will make a difference in the world by cleaning up the islands. You get a job in the Conservationist career, and spend your free time cleaning up the island.

Generation Seventeen: Prismatic
Growing up wild and free on the Islands of Sulani you learned to love the wild colors of the islands and it’s natives, and you become obsessed with using that rainbow of colors to make outfits. Your dream is to become a famous fashion designer, and to see people wearing your clothes on the street. You diligently apply yourself to learning everything about fashion, design, as well as painting your concepts, writing about them for magazines, capturing images of them, and talking them up to other sims. To keep up this high energy lifestyle, you become addicted to coffee, and caffeine fuels many an inspired night. This leaves little time for romance, and you end up adopting to fulfill your parents’ dreams of continuing the family’s legacy.

Generation Nineteen: Cinnamon Spice
You grew up in the shadow of your famous family, and always knew that just wasn’t for you. Your tendency towards being clumsy makes you feel awkward in any social situations. You hide in your room or the local library instead – especially during your parent’s party nights – and you find fantasy worlds in your books. When you hear a rumor that the fantasy can be real, you jump at the opportunity. Becoming a Spellcaster gives you confidence you never thought you could have, and you find yourself winning duels and casting spells all over the Magical World.

Generation Twenty: Indigo
You were brought up into the knowledge that magic is real, but spells and potions never really interested you. You spent your youth sneaking around and watching Star Wars on TV. Eventually, you figured that if magic were a real thing, why couldn’t your favorite show be real, too? Maybe it was your magic talent that willed the world into existence, maybe it was already there, but one day after you left your magic and your magical family behind, you find yourself in a world you only dreamed of before. You are eager to explore, and want to learn everything there is to know about this new world. Fearing repercussions, you never tell your family or friends about what you’ve found, and simply explain your frequent disappearances from the real world as “extended vacations”. Everything you bring back from your travels is locked behind a basement door, and, although you found your spouse in Batuu, you forbid them from ever telling your child about that world, selfishly (or sheepishly) wanting to keep it to yourself.
Traits: Geek, Active, Kleptomaniac
Aspiration: Galactic Privateer, Hope VS Order, Paragon of Hope, Enforcer of Order

How to use this page (and all my challenge rules pages!):
Click on the green tabs above the purple rule box on each generation to find the goals. I have them separated into sections to make them easier to understand. If you’re trying to avoid spoilers, you DO NOT have to look at the next generation. All the information you need should be in each generation, including the traits and aspiration your heir will need! Above all, remember to have FUN!
Generation Twenty-One: Sky Blue
A hard-working Family-Oriented sim who lives in Komorebi and loves the local culture
Your parents were never home, and always seemed to have secrets. You bond with your nanny instead of them, and they teach you the value of hard work, love, and caring for your family. When you grow up, the last thing you want to do is walk around with your head in the clouds like your parents, and you vow to be a practical, productive member of society. You move far away from your parents, and end up living in the mountains near a ski resort. You are recruited by a local corporation, and quickly find a place you can really excel. You meet a local, and swear that love at first sight exists. When you’re not at work, you spend the rest of your time building a lasting, loving relationship with both your spouse and your children.
Generation Twenty-One Color:
Sky blue is a light, airy shade of blue reminiscent of a clear daytime sky. It evokes feelings of tranquility and openness. It represents tranquility, peace, and serenity, often associated with clear skies and open spaces. Sky Blue also symbolizes freedom and imagination. Psychologically, sky blue can evoke feelings of calmness and relaxation, reducing stress and promoting a sense of well-being. In art and design, sky blue is used to create a sense of openness and expansiveness, often employed to evoke a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere.

Generation Twenty-Two: Cream
A genius bookworm who loves to learn. The only question.. to serve justice? Or aid other people in their quest to learn?
You grew up in a loving and supportive home and were always pushed to be the best at whatever you tried. Your parent’s work ethic was inspiring, and you were determined to really make something of yourself. University seemed like the next logical step, and you studied for all you were worth. After graduating, you threw yourself into your new career, and were quick to make yourself a success. The only thing left was success in your personal life. You approach this with the same logic, finding your spouse working at a local library because you’ll have something in common – a love of books. Before long, you’re starting a family and working your way up the career ladder successfully. You stay close to your family, though, and you talk to at least one of them practically on a daily basis.
Generation Twenty-Two Color:
The color cream is a pale yellowish hue that blends the warmth of yellow with the simplicity of white. It symbolizes comfort, elegance, and tranquility. Cream is often used as a base for skin tones in art and is neutral, calm, and relaxing. Cream has timeless appeal and ability to adapt to various styles and trends have made it a favorite among designers and consumers. In today's world, cream continues to be a popular and versatile color used in various applications, from interior design and fashion to branding and digital media.

Generation Twenty-Three: Magenta
A hapless Paranormal Investigator where the career found them instead of the other way around.
You went to college only because it was expected. You refused to live on campus, however, and you found an old house to rent. It didn’t occur to you to check the history of the house… until it was already too late. An entity that inhabited it wanted desperately to communicate… and you were the first target that was receptive to it’s pleas. Eventually, you quit college and launch a career as a paranormal investigator – to your parent’s chagrin. You become a success despite your parent’s misgivings. Eventually, you find a wife and start a family, but your heart remains in the spirit world, and your family life continues to suffer.
Generation Twenty-Three Color:
Magenta is a striking color that lies between red and blue on the color wheel. It is often described as a rich blend of these two hues, resulting in a bold and eye-catching appearance. This color is not part of the visible spectrum of light, making it an extra-spectral color, which means it cannot be created by mixing other colors of light. Magenta is a rich color that possesses the beauty and charm of these two color wheel powerhouses. Associated with passion and power, there’s a great deal of intensity behind this striking color. From its purple undertones to its pink elements, magenta is inherently feminine. Most notably, it is referred to as a romantic color.

Generation Twenty-Four: White
The mountain-top calls. This sim answers in between their work as a Mechanical engineer and inventing their latest robot. They believe a Sims- like robot is possible… can they get it done?
You went to college only because it was expected. You refused to live on campus, however, and you found an old house to rent. It didn’t occur to you to check the history of the house… until it was already too late. An entity that inhabited it wanted desperately to communicate… and you were the first target that was receptive to it’s pleas. Eventually, you quit college and launch a career as a paranormal investigator – to your parent’s chagrin. You become a success despite your parent’s misgivings. Eventually, you find a wife and start a family, but your heart remains in the spirit world, and your family life continues to suffer.
Generation Twenty-Four Color:
The color white is often described as pure, bright, and clean. It symbolizes innocence and freshness, evoking feelings of calmness and clarity. White can also represent simplicity and minimalism, making it a versatile choice in design and art. Additionally, it is associated with light and new beginnings, often used in various cultural contexts to signify peace and harmony. The word white derives from Proto-Germanic hwitaz and Old English hwit. As delicate as it is elegant, white exudes beauty and grace. Most commonly associated with good things, it has a favorable reputation. In fact, it’s thought to have a heavenly presence. White doesn’t threaten or endanger, and it loves making others feel good. It’s for this reason why many turn to this color when they yearn for acceptance and affection. With its uplifting spirit and encouraging essence, white excels at making everyone feel appreciated and valued.

Generation Twenty-Five Color:
Olive is a muted, earthy green that resembles both green and yellow, named after the green olives commonly found in Mediterranean cuisine. It has its origins in the Mediterranean region and is often associated with nature and military contexts. Olive is known for its versatility in design and fashion. It is commonly associated with a variety of strong, evocative qualities: Calm, Neutral, Earthy, Timeless, and Resilient.

Generation Twenty-Six: Steel
An inventor who believes in making the world in general a better place, one idea at a time.
I am a 47 year old American wife, mother, and gamer. I’ve lived in the Midwest most of my life, and enjoy it for the changing seasons. My favorite movie is Labyrinth, my favorite game is Sims 4, and I have tattoos related to both. My favorite colors are purple, red, and green. When I’m not playing games (which is rare) I also enjoy reading and crafting. I’m also an animal lover, and have had many types of pets over the years. Currently, I have a dog named Cassie who is a Jack Russel / Beagle mix and five young fancy rats (all of whom are rescues). I run this Sims 4 Blog where I post screenshots and stories about the different challenges I play. Also here are the Sims 4 challenges I've written, and a place for me to store all the Sims 4 knowledge I've gotten over the years. I am also a Sims 4/variety streamer on Twitch for my mental health, fun, and to meet new people. I am also in the EA Creator Network and an Ubisoft Partner, which is a dream come true! I look forward to meeting you!
