Tales of Vasadori: The Elder Elves

I've decided to slowly build up Vasadori and include all of the lots and elves that I will need for the story. As I've mentioned before, the council of elders consists of four elder elves who derive their powers from the elements:

This is Idhrenion. He is the elder elf associated with fire. He was the first dark elf allowed on the council. Idhrenion is excited for the coming of the new queen. He had always felt it was a travesty that Veryan de Muse had been allowed to take the throne after what he did.

Biography Series: Donna Johnson Foster

Biography Series - DeJuan Foster

I spoke about doing backgrounds on some of my founding sims and their partners and I've finally gotten around to starting on them. I won't post them to the main blog, but I will create a link there for each bio. I've decided to begin with DeJuan Foster as a way to shed light on his blast from the past with Charday:

Vasadori Crash Course

I decided to do a quick post about the way things work in Vasadori and a little on the history. I know it can be a bit confusing and I'm hoping it becomes a little clearer as time goes on.

Mellow Metal

I find myself entirely TOO overcome with boredom so I decided to do a little photoshoot with Mellow Metal :).......I plan to turn these into posters sooner or later so future teens can look at these cuties! It's the first time I've actually used the black backdrops that I downloaded ages ago. So without further ado, I present, Mellow Metal:

Peragama

So I've really gotten into this whole alien invasion aspect and have decided that Celeste will want to know where she comes from. So I present to you Peragama, the largest city on the planet Titusanera:

Working Hospitals

I don't know if any of you have heard of Chris Hatch's working hospitals, but I have tried the hack and it's really a very cool hack! It can be found here.

Basically it's a system that allows you to build a working hospital for your game. It even utilizes playable sims in the medical career and law enforcement career to work as orderlies and guards. I tested it last night on a pregnant sim of mine and this is how it worked: In her last trimester a new option showed up under emergency on the phone that was called "call hospital". A taxi came and picked her up and the hospital loaded like any other lot. The main key to the system is a placeable ambulance that turns the lot into a hospital. The ambulance creates two playable sims that you can control who work as nurses. When building the hospital you can set up rooms for townie patients to use so your sim isn't the only patient. You can create a working gift shop for visitors to buy gifts for sick sims. Family members of my pregnant sim showed up during visiting hours and bought her gifts and chatted with her. The doctor sim (who is a NPC) showed up a few hours before she went into labor. There are special lights that you can place in rooms where you want the labors to happen. She walked to one of my maternity rooms and was joined by the doctors, nurses, and her husband who all watched her give birth. After that I called her a taxi and when the house loaded, her and her baby both arrived home safely! The hospital has to be built kinda like a house since the sim will be there for probably more than a day. So they need showers, beds, entertainment. You can build a cafeteria and a cook comes and serves meals. This isn't only for pregnant sims, but also sims that get the flu, food poisoning, even sunburned! The only issue that I've run into is that the sim still looks pregnant and I have to figure out how to fix it.......but other than that, it's a really great hack! One of my medical career sims was on the lot as an orderly that I couldn't control and I had Tanner Knowles who is in law enforcement come in to patrol during the night! Awesome, awesome hack!
