Let's get started.
In this post, I want to introduce the founder and his (back)story.
...
The Gothingtons are an old noble family from Windenburg. They have magical powers, but the old Viscount refused to use them and had forbidden Benjamin to do the same. Which led to a rift between father and son.
At the age of 18, Benjamin Gothington was drawn out into the world and discovered his passion for women and nectar. Which is why his father called him a good-for-nothing, a disgrace to the family.
To prove to his father that he was wrong, Benjamin devoted all his energy to the production of nectar and he was successful.
But when the Viscount died unexpectedly, Benjamin's life changed. Now he bore the title Viscount, had to take care of a dilapidated estate and pay off a lot of debts.
In desperation, he turned to magic.
During this time he met Grace, she became his great love. They married and the offspring came quickly. The eldest son Alden was his pride and joy. Just one year later, the twins Bishop and Bridgette arrived.
Benjamin couldn't have been happier. His family was perfect.
He was a committed but strict father.
The pregnancy with the twins took a toll on Grace's strength. The doctors admonished her to refrain from having another child. But fate/The Watcher had other plans. Grace became pregnant again, but she did not survive the birth of her youngest daughter, Clementine.
Benjamin was now alone with the four children. Lost himself in grief and, as a single father of three toddlers and a baby, was overwhelmed with himself and the world. His heart died with Grace. He blamed Clementine for her mother's death.
Since he was of the opinion that his children needed a new mother, he reluctantly looked for a new wife and quickly found her in #Name#.
However, the marriage was not a happy one. He was constantly cheated.
Benjamin buried himself in work and learned to control his powers better. With various spells, he was able to make a lot of money with his nectar. As soon as Alden reached his teenage years, he began to instruct him in magic. However, Alden had little interest in learning magic. It was torture for him.
The years flew by and the children grew up to be talented young Sims.
As soon as the three eldest were out of the house, he divorced.
Now there was only Clementine and him, and at last he took the time to meet his youngest daughter. He saw that her magical powers were very strong and began to teach her.
