Welcome to my legacy challenge! I love this sort of game-play and wanted to create something that I would enjoy, and hopefully someone else will too! This is a ten generation legacy with each generation assigned something precious and a corresponding colour!
This is a WIP and I’d love feedback.
Please tag me if you try this out and use #somethingpreciouslegacy and most of all have fun!
Happy simming xo

Generation One: Pearl
Colour: White
You left your small home town the moment you could, you wanted a blank slate to start fresh! You had been saving your money for as long as you can remember and could finally afford your first apartment! You wanted to take in everything the city had to offer: the food, the music and the locals. You find yourself, true love, and true happiness.

Generation Two: Amethyst
Colour: Purple
You grew up in the city and you cannot wait to leave, you won't miss it! (well, except for the food) You move out to your own little slice of nature. You want to be able to make the best food with the finest ingredients. They say you don’t know where your food comes from, but you do... Your garden! You still can’t help but be worried about ‘Big Brother’ and the powers that are controlling the food market and manipulating the ‘Sheeple’. It’s okay though, you can dance your worries away!

Generation Three: Sapphire
Colour: Blue
Your parent was all about living off the land and you’re ready to take it to the extreme! You are ready to start the good fight and promote self-sufficiency! You move to Sulani to join the conservation effort and live your dream life. You try to spread positivity and optimism about our planet to everyone you meet (Even though sometimes you find it hard to keep a smile on your face). You always wanted children but the sim-world is already so overpopulated that you only have one.

Generation Four: Emerald
Colour: Green
Your parent shunned technology and limited power usage for the whole house, but you could not be more different. You love technology and can’t wait to see what advancements you can make. You can’t get enough, revelling in technology in all its forms. You never liked the ocean, the way the seaweed would cling to your feet YUCK! You hop on a flight to Britechester and you can tell you’re taking your first steps down the right path for you: a path paved in money and circuit boards.

Generation Five: Citrine
Colour: Yellow
You grew up in a household that surrounded you with the marvels of technology but your grandparent had also taught you about the gifts we get from Mother Earth. It is your mission in life to combine the two! You want to use your knowledge and drive to work up the ranks and make Evergreen Harbour the best it can be, under your leadership of course. Your handmade goods are super eco-friendly and simply the best around (if you do say so yourself).

Generation Six: Amber
Colour: Orange
Your parent was always having to pander to other people: begging for votes and listening to what other people wanted.. No thank you! You want to answer to no one, you should be your own boss (as well as everyone else's!). You join the business career because you know you can get your way to the tippy-top! In your free time you always listen to your mantra: Work hard, play harder. You’re famous for your legendary parties and everyone knows that when you show up (with your guitar, obviously) it’s going to be a BELTER! Who has time for a family on top of that?! Anyway, here’s Wonderwall...

Generation Seven: Garnet
Colour: Red
You did not see much of your parent growing up, it was almost as if they didn’t even like you..? You want to give your children a loving home, where there is no doubt how much you love them. Your twin sibling is your best friend in the whole world and you somehow still always manage a regular date-night with your spouse. You made an interesting choice for your career: parent by day and super spy by night! You overheard all about the kind of shady business dealings that happen behind closed doors as a child and now seek to use espionage for good! Being able to protect priceless art is also a bonus. Both sides of you require a level of calm and patience which is why you practice yoga to help keep you centered.

Generation Eight: Onyx
Colour: Black
You were raised to believe that you could do anything, and you were absolutely doted on by your parent. Which may have meant that you grew up not taking much responsibility for your actions... (or your messes, oops!). You want every sim to know your name: you want billboards and millions of followers and everything else! You move to Del Sol Valley and work hard to become one of the best-known actors in the world. You also make sure you upload regular videos updating your fans on your favourite fanfics, ships and theories.

Generation Nine: Rose Quartz
Colour: Pink
You grew up in your parent’s shadow, the spotlight always on them. You needed to get away from the press and the fans that followed your family. The only companionship you could rely on was that of your pets (and snacks of course). You love every animal you ever meet, they just get you. You never feel like you can connect with people as easily as you can with your patients. You open your own vet clinic to help as many animals as you can!

You are tenth in a long legacy of precious sims! May the legacy live FOREVER! Mwahaha! You want to become a powerful vampire so that the legacy can live on with you forever! But it doesn’t mean you have to conform to the vampy stereotype (looking at you Vlad). You love colour and making people laugh and want to be able to be a ray of sunshine, NOT LITERALLY!
