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. ;)

Aw, she looks great. Lovely! Actually, with that hair style, she looks older and more mature. Even sad, like that last picture (though maybe that's just me reading too much into it ^^;;; ). And I did notice the scar first off.

I'm glad she seems to have made the trip over to your game, hopefully without too much culture shock. :) She does look like she fits in well.

Git bizy! Ha ha! :D

I'm glad you approve. It's funny how different a sim can look in two different games, though, huh? Different eyes always makes a big difference.

I've been wanting to use that hair since I downloaded it a couple of days ago (it's one of Phobia's Maxis-match retextures), and I think it looks really nice on Nyssa. It really suits her face, and you're right... she does seem older.

I think I just have a thing for scars and other markings, but it does relate to a rough trip through the portal too. I won't say too much more about it, though... I'll save it for my chapter.

Awww... Ripp icon. ^_^ (Mine is Ripp too, but a drawing of him.)

I miss my Ripp. :( I've been thinking about him and my other characters ever since you mentioned Eridanos the other day (thank you, btw) If I have the stamina, maybe after the holidays, I'd really like to try to put that story back together.
