ive never done this before but i really wanted to hop on plumbobtv’s Bachelorette challenge with the unfathomably lovely Saffron Elmore, so I’ve made her a potential suitor :))
So without further ado, I’d like to ramble on about Pietro Ortega!
He’s an adult sim (recently aged up from Young Adult) with a passion for anything musical. His parents turned him onto piano lessons since he was a young child, making piano his highest skill (one level away from maxing out) however he’s also very skilled at guitar (skill level 7), singing (skill level 8) and dancing (skill level 5) !
He’s also a goofball simb! he loves to make people laugh and this translates very clearly through his music-- a lot of his original works are comedy songs (Flight of The Conchords and Tim Minchin were my main inspos for his musical style and stage personality)
He dreams of one day becoming an international superstar for all his musical talent, however has often been criticised and mocked for making music that lacks depth, many in the music industry consider him a “half-assed comedy clown” but he really does pour his heart into his work... Sure, he could write music to make his audience weep, but that’s just not his goal ! He’d rather spread joy and laughter with his music
He comes from a well off family of lawyers, but fell out of touch with them after a big fight. They were worried because of his career choice that he wouldn’t be able to support himself and kept trying to force the family’s fortune onto him. He was insulted by their continuous lack of faith and unsolicited sympathy, so he simply cut them out of his life. He’s a very independent sim who wants to build his own legacy and career from the ground up, rather than mooching off the family fortune. One of his flaws is that he’s a little too proud and is reluctant to accept help when he needs it. He likes to be the problem solver, so its very frustrating for him when he has to accept he can’t always succeed on his own.
He actually doesn’t know much about the Simwives TV show, however his sister (the only member of his family who he does still keep in touch with) has been a fan since the first season and was the one who suggested he audition to be on The Bachelorette... Well, Pietro is never one to turn down an exciting adventure and it’s been a while since he’s been out on a date anyways since he’d had his heart broken a year ago when his girl walked out complaining he “never took anything seriously” and needed to get his head out of the clouds...
well, a lot can change in a year! And he feels like he’s finally ready to get back out there and shoot his shot ! :))
