STAR SIGN LEGACY CHALLENGE
A twelve generation legacy challenge based on the twelve signs of the zodiac. Each generation will have a different set of goals and requirements before the new heir takes over.
Rules:
Aging must be turned on, but you can have it at any length you wish (I recommend long but it is entirely your choice).
Each goal must be met before the new heir takes over.
You cannot give the sims dramatic makeovers or personality adjustments. Slight changes to the appearance are fine but they can’t be made into a whole new sim.
NO MONEY CHEATS.
If you do this challenge, please credit me (@ginovasims).
Vague guidelines/suggestions:
Heir can be any gender, they don’t have to be female. They can also be any sexuality.
Children don’t have to be genetic, they can be adopted, BUT they must be adopted as a baby/toddler.
Mods and custom content can be used.
The generations will offer three traits, you do not need the heir to have all three traits, but they MUST have at least TWO of them.
If you cannot add any of the required traits when the heir is a child, you are able to choose another trait and change it to the correct trait when available (either as a teen or YA). You can do this through cheats in CAS. But the same rule applies that you must have at least two of the offered traits by the time the heir is a YA.
If you do not have all of the packs required to complete the requirements for each generation, either find a similar alternative or skip that rule. But where possible, you must complete each generation requirement.
(OPTIONAL) I have assigned each generation a colour, you don’t have to follow this at all, or you can only use it as much as you want. You don’t need a whole yellow house with a sim only dressed in yellow, for example. It’s up to you!
(OPTIONAL) I have also given every generation a different theme to name their children. Again, this is all optional and you can ignore this, I just thought it would be fun and add a little extra challenge by coming up with different names you might not always use.
(OPTIONAL) Use the hashtag #StarSignChallenge on tweets, posts, and videos.
Inspiration: I am aware there are other zodiac inspired legacy challenges, but I have never done one myself and I didn’t read others before creating my own. I wanted to make sure all of the generations were entirely my own without feeling like I took inspiration from other challenges. All of the personalities and requirements are based on stereotypes of the signs.
Thank yous: I want to give shoutouts to three amazing people who really helped me out with this challenge. Without them, this challenge wouldn’t be how it is now!
@SushioSims - you have been absolutely incredible this whole process. You were there from the start of the challenge through to the end. Listening to my endless rambles and crazy ideas, as well as giving me suggestions and feedback too.
@thehungrysimmer - you supported me at the beginning with my ideas and I appreciate your eye for detail, especially with spelling/grammar mistakes!
@simsbooo - you read the challenge in one sitting when the first draft was done so I applaud your dedication as it’s not short or quick to read! You also helped me with the colour and name themes, which I definitely struggled with at times. WATCH HERE: https://youtu.be/n8hpcOOGU7c I posted a video talking about this new challenge, and I also created my founder for this challenge which I'll be playing on YouTube!
THE GENERATIONS
Generation 1 - Aries
You have always been an independent and confident person. Even since childhood, you knew what you wanted to do and had a plan to get there. You dreamed of becoming- no, you WOULD become a politician, with the aim of making the world a better place. You wouldn’t let anything get in your way and put all your efforts into climbing to the top in the world of politics. You make friends with like-minded people and bump heads with those you don’t get on with as well. Your main issue is that you have never liked it when people tell you what to do. You often get easily frustrated when you think people are saying that you’re unable to do something. You never turn down a challenge and have always been extremely passionate about all of your interests. Anything bold and daring, you’d try it. The first time you visit Mt. Komorebi, you know this is where you want to be. The snowy slopes mean that you can spend as much time as you want rock climbing, skiing, snowboarding… anything to give you an adrenaline boost! You live for a life of thrills, always on the edge, heart-racing. You have always been loyal, sticking by your friends through thick and thin. It’s the same in relationships. In your eyes, love is built on trust and loyalty, and you would never forget this. You will always fight for what you believe is right and support the people you love, no matter what.
Requirements:
Any partner must be a good friend before you start romancing them

Generation 2 - Taurus
You grew up close to your parents and, because of their hot-headed nature, you have quite a short temper as well, and your problems can often seem trivial. The smallest things can offset your balance and get inside your head. But that’s okay, because you’ve found something to help you cope and distract you: food. You love to cook. Whenever you get stressed, you go to the kitchen and let all your frustration out into your cooking. And it pays off, your food is incredible. You spent your teen years cooking and dreaming about a future doing the same. Your dream is to one day own your own restaurant, but you need to make a name for yourself in the cooking industry first. Starting from the bottom won’t be easy, but you know you have the drive and the talent to make it. Nothing will stop you from achieving your dream. Even though you had a really close relationship with your parents, they did work a lot, meaning you spent a lot of time home alone. Well, not alone. You always had dogs in the house. It’s true when they say that dogs are a man’s best friend. You can’t imagine ever living without a dog. They’re just as much a part of your family as any sim ever could be. After long and stressful shifts, you know you will always come home to your furry friend.
Requirements:
Move out with your family dogs and always make sure to have at least one dog in the household
Become companions with at least one dog

Generation 3 - Gemini
Being a twin, you always feel like you have to try harder to carve your own personality. You and your twin aren’t the same person, just because you look the same. You are unique and will prove that to everyone, in the most dramatic and fun ways you can think of. You’re a bold and confident person who wants to stand out, in every sense. You always worked hard in school, but it came easy to you to get good grades. You’re a natural genius, and aren’t afraid to show off and boast about it. You have a variety of friends and enjoy meeting new people, and you’ve never been afraid to experiment with fun and different styles or hobbies. Because of your parent’s high maintenance attitude and their frequent freaking out at little things, you’ve become a bit unpredictable as well. No one knows what mood you’ll be in, or how you’ll react to things. You enjoy this though, you like that people see you as an enigma. Life would be boring without a bit of spontaneity! It’s the same with your work life, and in romance too. You can’t settle in one job for a long time; you always get bored and want to try something new. You’re no different with relationships. You never really have a serious, long-term partner. It’s not that you aren’t interested in romance, it’s more that the idea of exploring new romances and people excites you more than settling down with one partner forever. You have always been inspired by your grandparent’s love of adventure. You want to explore different cultures, try new things, and be courageous! But can you keep up with this lifestyle forever?
Requirements:
Achieve an A grade throughout school
Achieve an A grade at university

Give children location themed names
Traits: Genius, Outgoing, Noncommittal
Aspiration: Renaissance Sim
Career: Any
Colour: Mint
Generation 4 - Cancer
You’re never able to fully settle as a child due to your parent’s erratic ways and brash decisions. Your life is often uprooted by moving houses so you never feel fully stable or like you fit in anywhere. You feel like you never really had any true friends growing up; you always have to leave them behind when your parent decides it’s time for a change of scenery. You try to stay in touch online, playing games with them and chatting, but it isn’t the same as being with them in person. Your parents always love you and treat you well, but you can’t help but dream of having a ‘normal’ family. With parents who live together and living in a forever home. You have always wanted this life for yourself. But when you get it, you realise that this ‘normal’ family isn’t everything. Things aren’t as easy as they always seemed. Your partner has been keeping secrets from you, and you find out in the worst way possible. Absolutely distraught and heartbroken, you begin to put all your effort and love solely into your children, often forgetting to care for yourself. Your children are innocent in this and you won’t let them suffer because of your partner’s mistakes. It takes you a while to get over the pain they caused you, but, eventually, you are able to pick yourself up and find a new focus in life. Your children will always come first, but you realise that you want to make sure all children are looked after and cared for. You decide to join the education career so you can work with children and be there for them. Over time, you learn that the main thing in life is having people who love and support you, and just because a family isn’t always together, it doesn’t mean it’s broken.

Generation 5 - Leo
Your life is never the same since one of your parent’s cheated on the other. The previous heir would give you and your siblings extra attention, and you lap it up. You know you were always spoiled as a child, and you never go without something you want. Despite all this, you do truly appreciate everything they do for you to try and give you a happy childhood. They teach you to be selfless and pure, and you keep these values in mind through your whole life. You aren’t a selfish person at all, you just know your worth and won’t let anyone treat you any less than that. Throughout your childhood, you have a passion for the arts. You’re always doing something to creatively express yourself. Anytime you have the opportunity to be the centre of attention, you take it. You always knew you wanted to be known in the world, but would never give up on your creative hobbies for the sake of your career. You use your creative mind to post vlogs and music videos online, becoming an internet sensation. The more you post, the more your following grows, and your fame is quick to follow. Before you know it, you have paparazzi following you around and screaming fans chasing you, and you love every second of it. You adjust well to the celebrity lifestyle, and live a life of luxury with your equally famous partner and children. Who said you couldn’t have it all?

Play an instrument of your choosing through childhood and teen years
Reach level 8 of the social media career

Colour: Yellow
Generation 6 - Virgo
You never really fit into the celebrity lifestyle you were brought up with, it didn’t feel like you. You didn’t appreciate being in the public eye and couldn’t wait to move out and stop being known as the famous child of the social media celebrity that is your parent. While the rest of your family would rather be outside, followed by fans and paparazzi, you had always much preferred being home, tucked up with a good book. You still had a good relationship with your parents growing up, but felt like they unintentionally put extra pressure on you to be the best. The whole world watched you grow up, so they would know if you put a toe out of line. You always worked hard to avoid this embarrassment, for both yours and your parents’ sake. Having famous and rich parents meant that you had so much handed to you growing up. A lot of people would have loved this, but you hate it. You want to make your own life and create your own path, without your parents’ help or money. You were never interested in romance or love, but you love the idea of being a parent. You heard about how your great-grandparent had your grandparent with a friend, and the two would co-parent to raise them. This inspired you, and you realised you didn’t need a partner to be a parent. And so that is what you do. You and a close friend agree to raise a baby together, in a completely platonic relationship. The child would still grow up in a supported and loving home, and no one said that there had to be romance involved to look after a baby together. You provide them with anything they need, just as your parents had done for you. Except you would create and make everything for them, not just buy it with a celebrity status, and you always make sure it was perfect for your little angel.
Requirements:
Read one book every week as a teen
Leave school with an A grade
Drop out of the fame system when you move out of your family home
Move out with just 2k to your name

Never pursue a romantic relationship
Have a baby with a good friend and co-parent with them (you can woohoo with them to start the pregnancy, but remove all romance afterwards)
Reach level 3 of the master maker aspiration
Optional Requirements:
Instead of moving out with 2k, keep track of how much money you earn while living with your parents, and move out with just that money as a YA

Colour: Lilac
Generation 7 - Libra
Growing up in a home built solely by your parent made you appreciate every detail, you knew that everything you owned was built with love. You never took a possession for granted, and would always relish in new items and objects. Your parent was a perfectionist so you knew that everything in your house would be of excellent quality, and this was what you’d grown to expect, in every walk of life; excellent quality. Since your parent cut themselves off from fame and fortune, you never knew your grandparent as a child. As a teenager, you became curious about your extended family, so your parent introduced you. It was easy to see that you had a lot more in common with your grandparent than your parent. You loved their life of luxury, especially how posh and expensive everything was. You knew you wanted a life like this. You always had a strong sense of right and wrong, and relished in honesty and truth. You decided you would become a lawyer, and fight for what was right. Plus, the job paid well so you’d be able to afford your luscious dream home. Your best friend as a child came from a wealthy family, so you bonded over your love of materialistic goods. When you became teens, you saw each other in a whole new light. You started dating and everything seemed perfect for a long time. Until, a matter of days before your birthday, something happens for you to break up with each other. You were both devastated but knew it was for the best. You had a few more serious relationships after your breakup, but none of them felt right. You eventually bumped into your first love again, and rekindled the relationship. This time, the love between you both was stronger than ever and you knew you’d met your soulmate. You live out the rest of your days in a luxurious house, full of materialistic goods, growing old together.

Generation 8 - Scorpio
You always loved hearing about your parents’ love story and dreamed of having one yourself. Two childhood friends who fell in love and always found their way back to each other, what’s more romantic than that? As a teenager, your romantic relationships never worked that well. The other sim never quite lived up to your expectations. You wanted them to be perfect, and they weren’t. What made it worse was that your older sibling seemed to find the perfect partner while you were both at school. How was that fair? Not only that, they had better grades than you, and more friends. Anything you could do, they could do better. You were both given the exact same opportunities as children and raised the same, so it seemed wrong that they were better than you. But the one thing they couldn’t take from you was your music. That was the only thing you knew you were better at than them. Through your teen years, when you weren’t stuck on bad dates, you were in your room playing one of your instruments. When you became a young adult, you and your sibling cut ties and didn’t really interact with each other at all. You were also still on the hunt for a perfect partner. You continue to date around, but are faced with failure. How could it be so hard to find someone to love? You eventually decide to put your dating life on hold and focus on yourself. You have always enjoyed being active and sporty but never really concentrated on it as you were so preoccupied with dating and your music. But since you weren’t dating, you could bring your attention back to fitness and wellness. Lo and behold, you bumped into someone at the gym. Someone you never expected to be interested in. Someone so different from you and your family. But this sim captured your interest and really excited you. Could it be the love you were looking for all along? After your engagement and career success, you decided it was about time you made amends with your sibling. You realised that happiness didn’t come from other people and there was no use comparing yourself to them. Happiness comes from within and you strive to become the best version of yourself.

Generation 9 - Sagittarius
Being an only child meant you always had your parents’ attention, and you loved it. You weren’t a difficult child but you were very playful and never took things too seriously. At school, you were known as the class clown and never put too much effort into your studies. You were able to get into university by the skin of your teeth, not that you were too interested in getting the degree. You wanted to go so you could live the ultimate student experience. Drinking, partying, exploring yourself. That was probably the reason why your studies didn’t last too long. But you weren’t really too worried about that, and you still continued to live the same way. Getting juiced at clubs and spending your nights with strangers, anything to have a bit of fun. You made money by doing some stand up gigs at different venues, and even dabbled in DJ'ing at nightclubs. Things went on like this for a while, until one night, something changed. You were expecting a baby with a random stranger. And they didn’t want the baby. Even though it wasn’t anything you’d anticipated ever wanting, the idea of having a child of your own felt… nice. You agreed that you would take the baby in and raise them by yourself, without the other parent. You saw it as a sign that it was time for you to grow up and mature. You had to support this new little person who only had you to rely on, and you refused to let them down. You stopped partying as frequently and spoke to your parent about a job in the music industry. They made it big playing music, and you had always loved all the songs you’d heard at the clubs through the years. You wanted to produce and mix your own tracks. It was a lot more sustainable than being a DJ, and it meant you could still spend some evenings out doing your stand up routines. You might never be the picture-perfect and most organised parent, but you’d do everything in your power to provide for your child.
Requirements:
Never achieve more than a B grade at school
Go out to a nightclub or host a party every night while at university
Get a tattoo while juiced at university

Generation 10 - Capricorn
You never really understood why your parent chose to live their life the way they did. No order, no plans, just doing whatever they felt like in the moment. You loved them, but you had very different belief systems and the pair of you often had arguments about these disagreements. They did what they could to provide for you, but you couldn’t help but question if it was enough. They never got a real job or fully settled down, and you felt a bit embarrassed that you were brought up in your grandparent’s house since they never bought their own home. You decided early on that you would strive to be better than the legacy they left behind. You would work towards big achievements, in both your professional and personal life. You decided that when you have children, you would always do whatever you could to help them achieve and set them up for success. You started by thinking about where your parent went wrong, and worked hard to do better. You’d get As in school and actually finish university. The idea of getting juiced and woohooing with strangers was something you decided you’d never do. Everything you would do, you wanted to do it properly and like a real adult. Your children would learn to be responsible and have a parent they can fully rely on. You always had an appreciation for the finer things in life, and would often be seen turning your nose up at whatever seemed below you. You didn’t have the most friends because of this, partly because you never saw them being as good as you, and partly because no one liked your attitude. You didn’t mind though, you wouldn’t want to be seen with anyone or anything lower than your worth. Why settle for anything less?

Generation 11 - Aquarius
You grew up in the city and never felt like you truly belonged there. It felt too chaotic and crowded, full of fake people pretending to be happy. At least, that’s what it seemed like to you, because you were never happy there. You felt drawn to the ocean, and believed that was where you were destined to be. So with your childhood best friend, your only friend, you decided to move to the beach at the first chance you could, to live by the sea. Although, when you got there, it wasn’t as perfect as you expected. The people living there had trashed the place and not only ruined the environment, but endangered the wildlife living there. You hated seeing what the beautiful island had become, and vowed to make it a better place again. When you weren’t cleaning or working to make the beach habitable again, you could be found knitting. It was the one hobby that kept you sane when you were living in the city. In the loud hustle and bustle of the night life, you could escape by focusing solely on your new knitting project. Watching the thread loop around your needle. Whenever you were stressed or tense, you would go back to knitting. After your hard work had finally paid off and the beach was immaculate, you met someone who you’d never seen on the small island before. They thanked you for cleaning their home and you discovered they were a mermaid. That was why you’d never seen them before, because the water was so filthy, it was uninhabitable to all sea life, including mermaids! But now the water was clean again, the mermaids and other wildlife could move back home. You fell in love with the mermaid and lived together peacefully and happily on your perfect little island.

Generation 12 - Pisces
Growing up you were always worried that people would judge you for being a mermaid. You hated the idea of people talking behind your back, and feared that everyone actually already knew your secret. You kept your identity as hidden as possible and would only show your closest friends who you really were. What made things worse was that your paranoia caused you to be really clumsy. You were too busy looking at everyone else to mind your own feet. It didn’t help that half the time, you had a tail instead of feet. Sure you always had legs to walk on, but swimming with a tail always felt more natural and comfortable to you. Walking felt weird and you would often trip over your own feet. You were quite literally a fish out of water. Being half fish meant that you had a natural bond with animals. Your parent had built their career on helping the ecosystem where you lived and saving different wildlife from extinction. You knew you also wanted to help animals, but in a different way to your parent. You always dream of running your own vet clinic and looking after different pets. You and your parent bonded over your love of caring for animals, and that wasn’t the only thing you had in common. They taught you how to knit and cross-stitch, and you loved every minute of it. Any way you could express yourself creatively, you would try it. As a teenager, after trying many different hobbies, you found that your true calling and passion was for art. You loved to paint and craft things. It was never your plan to sell your art or become famous, you just wanted to create. And create you did. Your home and vet clinic were covered in your artwork. Your parent couldn’t be more proud of the caring and artistic person you’d become. So you began to think, why care what others think? What’s the point in over-thinking and becoming paranoid about people judging you? You would always have your family and animals there for you, no matter what, and that was all you needed.
