Welcome to the adventures of the Baxter legacy family. Please read the background page for more information. Otherwise, I hope you enjoy.

It wasn’t all a lost cause. Willow became a mermaid - only finding out afterwards that the father of her child/ex-husband’s sister was a mermaid as well. They became best friends so she had a strong companion. And as a single mom, Willow raised her little boy Xoan on the beach. Xoan seemed to love the beach and wild and adventure, as much as, if not more, than his mother. He had his mom’s adventurous spirit and strong will.

Willow always kept her eyes and heart open for love, but as she raised her boy and experienced many failed attempts, she was beginning to feel it wasn’t meant to happen for her.

[naywass]

Willow made her way to San Myshuno after completing high school. She went with nothing, making her way up the ranks - not wanting any connection to her family back home. She fell in love with the ocean, and made good friends for the first time in her life. She also met her husband to be, and the father of her first child. They were madly in love until he happened to set eyes on Whitney at the wedding. The dasterdly half-sister thought she would have a bit of fun with him afterwards - ultimately ending Willow’s marriage. Another one lost to her sister - but she was surprisingly okay with it. Spending her days searching the beach, the waters and the caves - every day had a wild and whimsical quality. And when she came across some strange kelp in a cave, her life changed forever.

[naywass]

As they grew, Whitney became a hardcore gaming streamer and Willow was still trying to figure out where she wanted to go. Seeing her father never settling down encouraged her to try to find her love to be. A few boyfriends in high-school who she was hoping to be destined to be with just didn’t turn out. Pictured, was one scummy boy who ended up cheating on her with Whitney.

Alas, Willow kept her hopes up and continued on. The city was starting to weigh on her and she craved for more worldly adventures - somewhere near water she thought. It always seemed to call to her.

*Note: For M Generation - they were werewolves which was understood to be “moon children.” I purposely made it fit since the werewolves game pack had just come out at the time I was getting to the M generation and wanted to play it. As a compromise to myself I promised that I would use W as a “water child” so that I could do a mermaid at this time. So although it doesn’t exactly fit with this particular letter - I wanted to include mermaids in the legacy at some point and since I took M for werewolves, I figured I’ll take W for mermaids lol.

Vaughn moved from Windenburg to San Myshuno after selling his strip club and finally finishing his degree. He started up high in the criminal career and was making a pretty penny living it up in his apartment. Gratefully, butler included.

Along the way Vaughn had collected quite a fair amount of love interests. Completing his Villianous Valentine aspiration, as well as the Serial Romantic aspiration. Now the father of several children, two of his favorite ladies who lived with him in Windenburg decided to leave him... he wouldn’t have minded much if they didn’t leave their daughters too. Now Vaughn was a single ‘dad’ who made sure his girls had everything they needed, but didn’t care to be around.

Thus, half sisters Whitney and Willow were added to the Baxter legacy. Willow, raven haired and whimsical being the new heir. Whitney was wicked and evil, following in her father’s footprints. This meant Willow had an absent and vicious father and a wicked half sister - but luckily for Willow, she was one of the people Whitney could actually tolerate.

[naywass]

Vaughn headed off to Uni to complete the Villainy program. It wouldn’t be Vaughn without some partying and flings along the way. Unfortunately, Vaughn focussed a little too much on the fun and ended up on academic probation. After a second term of being on probation, it looked like it was going to take Vaughn a little bit of time to complete it. He decided to move off campus and work on his last course from his new life in Windenburg.

[naywass]

U Generation officially ends with Ulyssa’s passing. She lived a full and long life, eventually going with grim due to old age. Vaughn, now in university, declined to visit his mother when she called to spend time together - he has a twinge of regret now that he’s received the dreaded phone call simmers know so well - but he’ll continue on like he normally does working towards his degree in Villainy. 

[naywass]

The family got together for a dinner out for Vaughn’s birthday. Everyone enjoyed the meal and Vaughn got to blow out the candles on his cake - though maybe not everyone watched. However there were a lot of music and noise makers when he did his ‘age up spin’ which worked out nicely.

Vaughn, now a young adult, will be moving out on his own. A Villainous Valentine aspiration now under his belt - he’s ready to wreck havoc on the world.

[naywass]

It’s Ulyssa’s birthday and Vaughn made her supper. The only thing he can make is a garden salad but Ulyssa is happy nonetheless. Elderhood is upon her and Vaughn isn’t too far behind with young adulthood on the horizon. She’s had a good life, with many successes. It took a little while but she got there. She might be a bit blind to the paths her son is taking, but maybe that’s for the best.

[naywass]

Prom went better than Vaughn could have expected. After having increased his mischief skill pranking and making fun of the other kids in class - he received the Prom Jester award. One of his love interests just happened to be prom royalty. The after party was a success, even though he got caught trying to pull a prank on his bestie. It’ll be a night to remember.

[naywass]

Vaughn completed his transformation. Hours working out, getting contact lenses and then cutting his hair and he’s feeling more confident than he has in a long time. So much so, that he’s decided to use it to his advantage. Vaughn isn’t interested in anything long term or deep commitments, but he’s open for fun.

[naywass]

Ulyssa is finally starting to hit the ground running when it comes to her writing. She’s published another book, making the number of total daily royalties 6. She got her first fame star and is feeling pretty proud of her underestimated self.

Meanwhile, son Vaughn is working on transforming himself. After finding his girlfriend with someone else, Vaughn decided he doesn’t need love or anyone else. Vicious thoughts flood his mind as he works toward being the best of anyone. His head begins to swell as the true vain nature underneath begins to take over. Ulyssa is so caught up in her own success, she doesn’t notice.

[naywass]

Ulyssa was a writer. She saved up through freelance writing gigs and was eventually able to afford her own apartment. Her sister Uzi had met her husband to be and moved to Del Sol Valley so it was time for Ulyssa to move on too. She craved a child, but herself was aro ace. Thanks to Lumpinou’s Pregnancy and Relationship overhaul, she was able to conceive a child. Thus, Vaughn was born. At this point in time, Ulyssa was finally getting comfortable in her own skin - and became more and more unexpected. She continued to write freelance, but finally published one of her own books to the literary digest. It was accepted. She was thrilled. It was hard finding the time to be a single mom and aspiring author, but she was determined to do it all.

[naywass]

Uziah eventually changed her name to Uzi and transitioned. She took after her mother and wanted the undying adoration from many so she became a UTube star. She wanted to have a ubiquitous and unforgetting presence and was succeeding quite well at it.

Her and her sister, Ulyssa moved in together after high school. Ulyssa very much took after her father. She was a bookworm and her and her father both loved movies. She was unassuming and pretty usual for all intents and purposes. She wasn’t very up and coming, and to be honest didn’t seem to have much going for her. However, it’s very much thought that she was underappreciated and underestimated as she had a lot going on inside that head of hers, just dying to get out.

[naywass]

Tamara made it to the top. Top tier spellcaster, Master Actress and World wide celebrity. However, she found herself lonely. She still wanted more, but for the life of her she couldn’t find out what. It wasn’t until she grew good friends with her butler that she began to understand what it felt like for someone to see her not for who she appeared to be, but for who she really was. Which was a strong, fierce and at times bratty and selfish individual. The thing was, he still stuck around. It wasn’t long until things blossomed between the two and Tamara and Matteo ended up in love and had children; twins - Ulyssa and Uziah.

[naywass]

Sam met another spellcaster, one who was not nearly as advanced as her and she fell in love. She found a good middle ground between the person she once was, and the person she had become. Sam started to ground herself with spirituality and mindfulness. Finding her own self was the best thing that she could have done for herself. However, her straying eye led her to having an affair with the Sage of Mischief Magic - resulting in her daughter: Tamara.

Tamara was a force of nature. She grew to a teen and excelled in everything. She was talented, tantalizing, and transcendent. She was utterly beautiful, and had the Ancient Bloodline trait. She picked up magic quickly and knew every spell and potion there was to know by time she reached young adulthood. She also completed the majority of her University years as a teen. She didn’t care for the youthful drivel - she wanted to be older. She wanted fame, glory and for people to be in awe of her. Thus, Tamara became an actress, and had her fair share of friends and admirers.

[naywass]

Samantha started out being her sweet and simple self. Practicing and learning as much as she could as she tried to soak it all in. She’d spend hours over her cauldron, testing and experimenting. Thing was, Samantha wasn’t ready to learn just the extent she could use magic and spells to turn things in her favor.

Samantha was a sappy sim. She longed for the type of love she saw in her parents. After many failed attempts at finding it for herself, using a variety of spells and potions. She became sardonic or cynical about love and the world as a whole. If things didn’t work out for her, why should she be so sweet and simple? Thus, came the birth of new and improved Sam. Sassy and sarcastic, Sam climbed to the top of the Spellcasting chain. 

She moved into a haunted house and became a paranormal investigator, wanting to learn more about the supernatural. It was there she met her first real love; Guidry. She brought him back to life (with the help of cheats/mods) and they had a child together. Alas, not all good things last and she ended up leaving him after the spark in the relationship turned sour.

River and Ara ended up raising a few children together. One of them being Samantha Baxter. Samantha took after her mother in that she’d rather have her nose in a book. After becoming a young adult she found herself in a small cottage in Glimmerbrook. She thought the world was beautiful and loved to visit the library along the water (LilSimsie save file). She would spend long days reading through the books she’d find among the shelves. Interestingly enough, most of them were about magic. Something about it really had her pulled in.

It wasn’t long before she happened upon something mysterious. It felt like it called to her and she couldn’t resist. This is how Samantha ended up in the Magic Realm and started her journey as a spellcaster.

After sharing her discoveries and new experiences with her mother. She found out that she inherited the trait of Strong Bloodline from her mother, Ara. Suddenly all the feelings of belonging and calling made sense.
