Round Robin Legacy - Introducing Nyssa Lioncourt's new life

The poll has been closed and Nyssa won by a landslide! Thank you to everyone who voted for her, because I couldn't be happier to have her for my stretch of The Round Robin Legacy. Now, for a little glimpse at her new look...







Just setting things up here.




Nyssa Lioncourt...

She appears mysteriously in Sim City one day, and claims to have come from another planet. Moving forward, and trying to forget her tragic past, she immerses herself in the nightlife scene, and will eventually become a proffessional party guest, but is that where her story will end, or is it just the beginning?

(Yeah, I checked to see what her LTW might be in my game, but I thought that "become a proffessional party guest" was more interesting than "woohoo with 20 sims." I'm sure she'll have her share of lovers, but the career plays into a better story for me, so I went with that.










She's very pretty for someone without a nose.

And my fears about the cc skin clashing with my overall Maxis-match style seem to have been exaggerated. With the right cc, she blends in pretty well, aside from the slightly more defined nose and upper lip. (Though my SO was like, "What the hell is on her face? What's up with the maple leaf?" *snicker* What is this? Canadian propaganda? We can't have that...) My main concern was the lips, which were easily converted to my own style with lipstick, so all is well.

I've also decided that her story will take place about a generation into the same world as Strangetown, Here We Come, so it will provide a number of little hints about that too. ;)

I so would have voted for Adric if you hadn't put out the call. But I didn't want to kill your muse. I can't wait to see what you do with her story, though. The more I think about it, she probably has the best scope for a good plot of the choices.

Haha, Canadian propaganda. I knew the marking on her face looked familiar to me; I just couldn't figure out why.

(And in case you're wondering who I am, I'm just a reader of your Strangetown series who decided to add you and leap into casual commenting without introducing myself. How awkward of me.)

Adric would have been interesting in his own right, but the tinkering angle has already been followed in generation 2, with the Servo, Arnold. I thought Nyssa had the most potential, so thank you for voting for her. :)

Yeah, her face looks like some sort of goverment brochure to me. Well, it's not red, so that's a little better.

Well, it's very nice to meet you. :D No need for introductions. I hope you've been enjoying it.
