Hey guys! I’m so excited to be on gen 5 of this legacy challenge! This gameplay has definitely made Aria my favorite generation yet! I also wanted to mention that she has had a lot of makeovers throughout her life so the way she looks here, isn’t going to be seen in the screenshots until later on!
The official legacy challenge rules are here. There’s 10 generations in the original rules and you would usually pick one but I decided to do them all in order and I’ll be changing some of the storylines to make it work, especially if some of the generations are really similar! I’m still playing in the Little Root’s save file for half of this generation but I did have a break in my save file so I switched to Simlicy save file!
Rules for Gen 5:
MIXOLOGY
Despite growing up in a close-knit home, you wanted to get out of town and explore the wild side of life. You left home as soon as you graduated from high school to live in the big cities, bouncing from job to job until you landed at the local club mixing drinks. At first, it was garbage pay and quite boring as nothing exciting happened, but once you learned the tricks of mixology and got around, met and have seen many faces, it was the dream you always wanted as it was something different than the cookie cutter life you were expected to live.

Background:
Even though she loved growing up with a close knit family, she always had the urge to go and live her life. She loved people. She loved meeting new people and she can’t get that in the small neighborhood she was raised in. As a teen she spends her time sneaking into bars with her best friends and going wild! She loved drinking and has a dream of becoming a bartender, it’s the perfect job for her making money while getting to meet new people! It takes her a while to finally slow down and fall in love.
What could be a more difficult topic to talk about than self control? Think about it — self control is nearly impossible. We know this because we’ve tried.
There’s that New Year’s resolution that we messed up in a matter of days or weeks.
There’s that doughnut we ate even though we just started a diet.
There’s that promise that we broke even though we were trying our best not to.
