The Gemstone Legacy Challenge
Enjoy drama filled game play? Ready to help your Sim through generational trauma? Enjoy The Not So Berry Challenge? Well then welcome to The Gemstone Legacy Challenge!
Think of it as the Not So Berry Challenge, but with less packs required to complete it. Before we start with the requirements of each generation, we should probably go over some of the rules first!
Much like The Not So Berry Challenge, each heir/heiress must represent the color of each gemstone. You do not have to make the skin match if you choose not to, but you must do it in another way (ex: hair, clothes, makeup, etc.)
Spouses' colors aren't a big deal. If you want to make them match, more power to you, but it's not required.
You can use the freerealestate cheat when getting a home, but it can only be used once for each generation. You may also use a money cheat, but only if it's going towards something that is part of the challenge (ex:buying a required item)
Unless it's required of the generation rule, you can choose where to live.
Lifespan has to be on normal settings, otherwise it's not really a challenge.
There's no specific gender you have to start with, but the first generation has to be able to reproduce.
Each name must match the gemstone the generation is signed to (you can name them that particular gemstone as well if you so desire)
Every aspiration must be completed before you can start playing as the next generation. Careers only get fully completed if it's stated in the generation's rules.
Generation One: Amber- Orange
You're new in town, which means you're pretty lonely. But that's all to change once you start going out and meeting new people! You just want to take life one step at a time, not feeling any kind of rush. You go at your own pace and march to the beat of your own drum.

To make up for it, you worked your way to the top to become a beloved actor/actress, which is how you met your spouse.
