The WaterFireGod, Story + Screenshots
Here´s the first entry including the links, in case you might wanna open it in a new tab to compare the items from the list.
This time, for the "wild objects", EA-stuff wasn´t enough, so I had to use some CC. Because my mod-collection is still in utterly chaos, I was going on the hunt. Bioniczombies alien-plants inspired me to look for any sims3-stuff that is alien-realted.
Actually, I found so much lovely stuff, that I will continue this alien-scenery a little bit, after the challenge is finished :-) !
But first things first - let´s do the counting again, of the 10 things I found at random, plus the 5 wild objects I picked on purpose:
So what´s this TV doing outside a house?
Next Pic will have a clue -
---> Object No 1:
Coffeetable from Bast
---> Object No 2+3:
TV + TV Remote from BionicZombie
---> Object No 4+5:
Wall Outlet + Powerstrip from BionicZombie
Obviously, some stupid sim was, again, obsessed with looking very hard for some stupid aliens.
Yeah - just talked to this guy, and he told me, some aliens actually showed up on the televsion-screen to finaly answer his desperate calls. He wants them to get him pregnant.
I mean, to show up in this garden.
(Thats pic contains all objects I used in that scenery)
Or maybe they came in the dark of the night?:
However, now they are here. Thats what they always say in the movies, too!
This portal is heavely guarded… by some gigantic alien-plants. Of course it is.
---> Object No 6:
Alien Plants from @bioniczombie
(That mod inspired me for this whole alien-thing, it was the last mod I found on my hunt - I already thought about another story, but changed my mind when I saw them plants; you can read about it in part 1 of the WaterFireGod. FireWaterGod? I always mix it up :-D)
And where did them aliens come from?
Well, I found these creatures on TSR. And also their creator!:
---> Wild Object No 2:
Alien Statue from Lisa9999
They are in the company of some beautyful glowing flowers. Or is it flowery lights? Who knows, it´s alien-science.
---> Object No 7+8:
This lights are part of the Fountain-set from Ilvan
What kind of futuristic tunnel did they come through?
Ugh, you don´t wanna know. This alien-obsessed sim who called that guys, he improvised something whith the monkeybar from his garden. You know how them nerds are.
---> Object No 9:
Monkey Bars from Ilvan
And before you ask:
No, the flowers on the monkey-bar where not grown by them aliens. The sim quit doing any sport and didn´t use that thing for a long time (we already know what he was so busy with instead). So mother nature took over that item.
To my fellow World of Warcraft-players out there, grrreetings, now THATS what I call a portal - GULDAN EAT THIS :-D !
From the Set Emerald dream flora and deco, from @lunenore
That is Sylvanes. She is on TSR, too!
PICTURE L)
Lets get a little bit closer…
This stuff from the emerald dream-pack is around 10 years old, and just now I discover it. I already knew Sylvanes' awsome CAS-characters from world of warcraft, but never checked out her mods in detail. Now finaly I did.
---> Object No 10:
The Water-Wall is part of the Fountain-set from Ilvan
LIMIT of the-10-things is FULL!
Let´s get even more close, so you can see whats etched into the stone:
Now you saw it. (Didn´t say you will be able to *read* it...)
Now let me finish the story:
The aliens send a device (on the right) to reach out to the WaterFireGod (on the left).
To us, its just the dragonfish as we know it, swimming around, spitting some fire, doing his thing.
Sure, what else did you expect?
Fishbowl, from the Cosmic Study Set, from Majik Goldies
The Alien-Fountain, again from Majik Goldies
LIMIT of "5 wild objects" is FULL!
Another challange finished.
And what about the story, is that finished, too?
They came to this (sim-)world to ask the dragonfish...
…someveryimportandurgentquestions.
But no matter what questions they asked, the answers of that little guy always sounded to them alien visitors like "42".
So maybe it was just a translation-problem. Everybody knows how sophisticated fishes are if it comes to language. Not everyone is.
Maybe them aliens were not that smart how they thought they are.
At least that was the only conclusion for them, they left frustrated (no they didn´t kill anyone out of anger, this time no one died, really, I promise!).
Maybe one day they will come back and give it a try again, after they learned about this guy, douglas adams, and that the answer to everything is, indeed, 42.
And yes, I actually cheated my test-sim to fishing-level 10, put some dragonfish in the ground and made the test-sim fishing that cute guy.
I just HAD to, after I found this awsome fishing-bowl from Majik Goldies. It is so old, and because of that the texture so blurred, that one might think, this blurred look of that item is on purpuse :-D
I didn´t now Majik Goldies' stuff before, just learned about that creator a few days ago, by coincidence, because of this little challenge.
Credits for the story go to a lot of people, all of them CC-creators in the first place, and the Creators of the Sims 3 of course, but also guys like Douglas Adams, Chris Metzen, Duncan Jones, Steven Spielberg, and it´s actually impossible for me to remember any more where my brain picked up all that stuff.
