Sims for Download

[strangetomato]

For anyone who's interested, here are all of the original characters from my stories (either created in CAS or born in-game). You can use these however you like. A wink and nod is not necessary, but always appreciated (especially the wink). If you use one of them for something, please give me a heads-up so I can check it out.






Sims from Strangetown, Here We Come

Any of the sims that I've created in CAS for a story, and those born in-game, will be posted here. They should be completely free of cc, with the exception of custom Lyran eyes on some of the CAS sims (if you must have them without, let me know), and I've dressed them up in base game hair and clothing, because I try to be thoughtful like that.

I have listed the cc and items from the EP/SPs that I've used on them in the story, and also the character stats needed to fully recreate them, but feel free to make them over however you see fit. In art school, one of my profs used to say that the secret to reinventing something is to just "turn it upside down and add a hat," so you might want to start there. Results may vary.




Mr. Doe

shy/outgoing: 2

Fun Fact: Mr. Doe is based on Morrissey, the writer, singer and lyricist, formerly of The Smiths.

Fun Fact: Jayne is my middle name. Any other resemblance is purely unintentional. In fact, we're not much alike at all (though that is the same personality spread for seriousness and niceness that I gave my simself... and I do have green skin).

Lyla Grunt

This is my version, created from Ripp and Buck's genetics, with some tweaking. I also took a stab at her personality, as you can see. I made it so that the boys would all have a logical mix of both parents.

sloppy/neat: 3

She's descended from the Maxis default PT (through breeding in CAS), as her cheekbones indicate.

That's it for now. I'll be adding more sims to this post as they appear in my stories.

oooh strange_tomato's sims!! any chance I can list you on pixel_trade now? pleassseeeee?

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yes, of course. Go right ahead. :D I was just heading over there (that's right - as if it was a physical location) to figure out how to list them.

[mjo5oh.livejournal.com]

yay thank you! just in time for my update post tonight as well!

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Oh, how cool. I just noticed a number of pixel_trade related posts on my friends page too, so it seems timely (well, not really. I'm pretty late to the party).

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

Orion and Galaxy are so cute! Oh, and I'm definitely going to download the Worthingtons. :P

[simsbarbie.livejournal.com]

Maybe later I would be interested in Frances's folks. Before my Frances died in a kitchen fire I wasnt aware of, his girl at the time was pregnant with his twins. I miss him so much. I also see that in the new Apartment Life, i would have been able to bring him back, as for some reason none of my sims could through Grim's phone service. (I know there are hacks out there that could have helped, but didnt want to be bothered with all of that.) After installing FT, his tombstone vanished. Argh! lol

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

Oh come on, it's never too late! Everyone loves taking somebody else's sims! :D

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's not TOO late, just late. :P If there's one thing you should know about me it's that I'm usually late.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Orion is so cute with his little Johnny Smith nose (okay, so it's Vidcund's nose, but basically the same thing). I think he's going to look a lot like Pierre Curious in Madame Ugly's Peculiar. Even better is his personality - it's like Ripp on crack. It's the same personality, only Orion's is completely extreme in every way. He's going to be a lot of fun.

Hooray for Worthingtons! :) Spread 'em around. I'd love to see what you do with them.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Well, they'll be here whenever you might be interested. I've added a link in the sidebar, so you can always drop back and find them easily.

That's sad about poor Frances. Why doesn't the Grim phone work? Do you still have his children in your game? And what about Apartment Life will help you bring him back? (I have a lot of questions, don't I?)

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

*snort* RIPP ON CRACK! I love that description.
Well, I do have a certain fat Frances who needs some annoying parents. ;)

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Well, that's what he is, right? ;) He's maxed out in outgoing, so I know he'll do the naked hot tub thing, which I just love seeing. He may be a "piss on the bushes" type too, but I'm not sure about that one.

I love that you're going to use them as his parents in your game too. That's awesome. Are you going to add his sisters too?

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

Okay, I am so slow. I JUST realized that it said under the stats for Jayne that you have green skin! LMAO.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

You didn't know that I was an alien, did you? :P

[simsbarbie.livejournal.com]

They have new info on the EP, Apartment Life. the new character will be WITCHES! yipee!! Go to the Sims 2 forum and read all the glorious info. Also, TSR, and Edenstyle has awesome info.

Anywho, I could have one of my witch sims bring a sim back to life. I probably need to collect some eye of newt and dragon scales. LOL

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

I have no idea yet. I'll probably download Edie because she's filled with awesome, but I might not use her for that reason.

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

Well, it makes sense since you love the aliens so much! :P
Oh yeah, and I'm like a quarter alien myself.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Oh right... the witches. :P I did read about that. Nothing says apartments to me like witches. That makes sense, right? *snicker*

I think I might actually be one of those people that hates on the idea of magic in the game (in the great Superstar vs. Making Magic debate, I'd definitely pick Superstar, and it makes more sense with the urban angle too). I'm not really all that interested in having witches, though I do appreciate it as an option.

It will be good for some storytellers, so I won't begrudge anyone that. I can't see myself ever really using them in a story (like vampires - probably not going to happen either), but that could change. The magic thing really made the most sense as another form of special sim, and it's a lot better than the lack of anything in FT (the genie doesn't really count).

The Apartment Life EP has me really excited. I already try to create apartments like that all the time, and already have multiple households on one lot, so that feature will be great.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

So do you have the black eyes, but a regular sim, err... human, skintone? :P

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Well, I look forward to seeing what you do, whatever that may be.

[simsbarbie.livejournal.com]

Yep, i'm excited about the whole apartment concept as well. I could go on forever about that subject.

I love novels that contains paranormal beings, sword fighting, hot romance, and magic all in one. So now my witches will compliment all the freakin vampires and aliens and plant peeps i have in my game. Oh by the way, LOL I had one of the grand vampires swallowed by the cowplant, then brought back to life as a zombie, and now he a plantsimmy. sooooo He is part vampire/zombie/plant. Trying to keep him alive is hard work. LOL

He can turn into a bat, has fangs, walks like a zombie, but has arm across face like a vamp, he can sprout out a baby plant simmy but he can not procreate with other sims(has only water,love,sunshine needs) His skin is plantlike but has very slight vampire coloring. During the day when outside his water needs evaporates, (he steams like a vampire) quickly because of his vamp blood. So I make him take a bath and throw him in the coffin to stop his water needs from decaying, then i have to put the garden light over his coffin, because his sunshine need will deminish. LOL Too much work.

New goal? To have him be abducted so that he can hopefully have an alien baby. LOL

[simsbarbie.livejournal.com]

Yea I know, I have issues. LOL

[simgarooop.livejournal.com]

Oh how awesome to see your original sims for download! ^^. I'm not in my computer right now, but I'll download the cute alien toddlers later (either Strangetown or my new neighborhood are always open for new alien inhabitants after all ^^).

Would you mind if I try to make a Multi PT set (default skin and eyes only) with them in the future?

Man! I could have used your Lyla Grunt too! I recently added her to the Broke Legacy as a somewhat important character, but since I'm lazy awful at creating sims, she's just a female, blonde Ripp. Well, maybe next time, but it's nice to see all these sims in here ^^.

Thanks for sharing!

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah! Black eyes are awesome.

[simfulacts.livejournal.com]

*shifty eyes - steals one*

:D
