Notes under the cut
Gen 1: Wrath
Karen Karensby - game begins with teen Karen living alone in Willow Creek
Spring, Year 1
Karen hates everyone, except Malcolm Landgraab. Life exists to piss Karen off, and heaven forbid you get in her way. On her first night in Willow Springs, Karen started a fire, and instead of being grateful for being saved, argued with the firefighters until they stormed off the lot. Her home was invaded by Robin Banks and Karen was so smug when Robin was arrested thanks to Karen swiftly calling the police from bed.
Karen is making money by painting beautiful masterpieces - but she hates it! She tried being a babysitter, and it does not pay enough to deal with those bratty children, so she quit. She can’t wait until she’s old enough to start her REAL dream job, a criminal mastermind. She’s had her eyes on Malcolm since the beginning of high school, and who better to hate everyone with than Malcolm?
Hating everyone extends to herself, too, as she picked up cigarettes within a week of moving to Willow Springs. On her first day of high school, she tried cannabis and hated it - it’s legal here, but Karen doesn’t care, she’s secretly (or not so secretly) judging any Sim that uses it. Stinking up a place with the cigarette smell is only part of Karen’s dastardly plans. She starts shit with everybody - adults, teens, children, even Bob Pancakes. Karen is a bully, a brat, a stuck up bitch, and plans to let everybody know.
Despite being a total fucking bitch, Karen is terrified of being judged, and sits quietly with these fears and continues on anyway. She’s having trouble making friends in school, and wonders if they’re secretly all judging her. Karen set her eyes on Malcolm, and within weeks of being a bitch to everybody but him, he was hers. She’s got Malcolm on lock - evil does need a partner after all.
Right before Love Day, she asked Malcolm to be her boyfriend, and he said yes - he’s only seen a taste of just how evil Karen can be.
Her mask is starting to slip, though - her hotheadedness is only vaguely disguised by her nicotine addiction. Don’t speak to Karen in the morning before she’s had a smoke! As soon as she graduates high school, she’s going to marry Malcolm - whether he likes it or not. .
Not even the Flower Bunny escapes Karen’s wrath. Instead of enjoying a pleasant Bunny Day with Malcolm, she took off out of the house to physically fight the Flower Bunny for eggs. She won, of course, and the Flower Bunny is now her mortal enemy. She’s rapidly approaching Summer with high hopes - and an eye on next Spring for her graduation.
Some notes under the cut
There are a lot of rules for this challenge, but I don’t have too many packs so I’m mostly going based on vibes. I’m also not great at taking in-game photos.
Something I did to make this playthrough slightly less “suffering” and slightly more “vibes”, because I have Seasons, when the first holiday approached I gave my sim a small budget for seasonal decorations and then reset her money back to 1500 after. This also helps to keep her from getting sad about a bad holiday. I love the realism that holidays add, especially to a legacy playthrough like this, as it sort of reinforces the passing of time.
I also started her with a very basic bed, fridge, stove, fire/burglar alarms, and toilet so the house wasn’t empty. It was hard enough starting with just that.
For the Wrath generation, I found it very hard to find a potential romantic partner to carry on the legacy without using ANY positive interactions. So I decided the only person she’s allowed to be nice to is Malcolm Landgraab, who I’ve eyed as her future husband since his traits fit the lore of the Wrath gen. Once they’re married though? All bets are off. I use a lot of CC in my saves, but Malcolm is still basegame stuff. Once he joins her household I’ll give him a glow up.
Mods I'm using that affect gameplay:
