I have a new gameplay family for you, this one with a side of "story."
below cut, are the descriptions of all my sims.
The Murad Legacy is based off of my gameplay in an Ottoman/Persian harem themed save and occasionally historical tid-bits. It will progress vaguely through time. As of now, succession follows whoever is in power. Read below the cut, for information on our starting sims.
Sultan Abdul bin Murad of the Kefa Sultanate, Soverign of the Sublime House of Abdul, Sultan of Sultans, Khan of Khans, Bey of Beys, and head of the Murad Dynasty.
Kadin Cecylia, First Wife of Sultan Abdul bin Murad Han and daughter of Mahmoud Agha is the head of the Imperial harem and mother of First Prince, Mehmet bin Abdul Han. While her title allows many powers and freedoms, Kadin Cecylia is yet to use them. Instead, she has withdrawn from her role, angered by her husband’s choice to invite more women into her harem. The First Wife is currently expecting a second child.
Kadin Andra, Second Wife of Sultan Abdul bin Murad Han is the daughter of Hüseyin Ali Pasha, the Grand Vizier of the Kefa Sultanate. Raised to thrive as a harem wife, she was gifted into the harem as tribute while still growing. Kadin Andra has found herself head over heels, naively, in love with The Sultan. Already, she has given him a son, the Second Prince, Hasan bin Abdul Han.
Ikbal Nana is the Favorite and newst serving concubine of Sultan Abdul bin Murad. The girl is neither cunning or smart, but what her personality lacks has been made up in beauty. Her father, Osman Khair Han, is a recently reverted vassal Han (King).Spoiled by The Sultan, despite not yet welcoming a child, Ikbal Nana has become entrenched in harem life. You’d never guess how much she despises the gilded cage.
Godze Helene Hatun stands to the left, she is the longest serving Concubine of Sultan Abdul bin Murad Han. Helene is the mother of The Sultan’s third child, Princess Fatma Hatun. While friendly with The Sultan, Helene Hatun has not been visited by him since her labors.
Godze Jana stands to the right and as a Concubine of Sultan Abdul bin Murad Han, she is currently expecting her first child. Jana’s relationship with The Sultan is not one of kindness, and neither party is afraid of sharing their disapproval for the other. Though, this shows some respect on the side of The Sultan, if not for his concubine, then for their future child.
Within the Kefa Sultanate, a Godze is recognized concubine of the Sultan who is provided her own household, Usta (head-of-household), servant(s), and allowance. Most often, women are bestowed the title after consummating their relationship with The Sultan. Though this rule has some exceptions as it is up to the Sultan’s discretion. Godze are not promoted without reason; being favored (Ikbal) or welcoming a son may be seen as an opportunity for a Godze. After welcoming any child, a Godze is bestowed the surname Hatun, an equivalent to the title of Lady.
I’m glad I met you guys. You made me... pick up on things I probably would’ve just gone on ignoring. "Trust your partner." And I do. I can’t forgive you, but I trust you. You took care of things, right? Otherwise, Shibuya would be gone, and my world with it. Hey, did I mention? I’ve got friends now! We’re getting together for the first time in a week! See you there...?
