strangetomato | The Round Robin Legacy Generation Five: Heir Poll

So now... the moment you've all been waiting for:

We vote.

The candidates for heir, in order of age, are Neil, Rosa, and Cy.

(All the children of Nyssa and Constantine are ineligible due to Constantine being a game-born sim. Because if this, I tried not to feature much of Calliope in the story. I didn't show her any more than I needed to.)

Let's review and weigh our options...

Corneilius (Neil) Lioncourt

Aspiration: Pleasure, Fortune
LTW: Become Space Pirate

sloppy/neat: 7
shy/outgoing: 10
lazy/active: 3
serious/playful: 7
grouchy/nice: 1

Zodiac sign: Leo
Turn ons/offs: Finely applied makeup, logic powers (the nerdier the better), no red hair
OTH: Games

Skills points: cooking 5, mechanical 5, charisma 9, body 8, logic 5, creativity 10, cleaning 6
Badges: gold gardening, silver fishing
Simoleans earned: $4,694 (from painting and selling produce)

Expressed genetics: light blue eyes, red hair, Enayla Pixie Nymph skintone
Recessive genetics: green eyes, red hair, s2 skintone

Neil is an odd sort, and is always getting himself into trouble. In his short life, he has met the social bunny, been abducted by aliens, and been hit by lightning. He has devoted his life to becoming a Space Pirate, so he can better understand the reason for his abduction. Or maybe get revenge. He hasn't decided yet.

Despite his short temper, Neil loves playing with children, and autonomously helps with childrearing.

Rosa Lioncourt

Aspiration: Popularity, Romance
LTW: Have 20 Best Friends

sloppy/neat: 6
shy/outgoing: 8
lazy/active: 4
serious/playful: 7
grouchy/nice: 6

Zodiac sign: Gemini
Turn ons/offs: Rubenesque figures, brown hair, no grease monkeys
OTH: Music and dance

Skills points: cooking 7, mechanical 8, charisma 10, body 9, logic 9, creativity 10, cleaning 5
Badges: gold gardening, bronze fishing
Simoleans earned: $3,048 (selling produce and one wish for fortune)

Expressed genetics: green eyes, black hair, Enayla Pixie Nymph skintone
Recessive genetics: green eyes, black hair, S3 skintone

True to the nature of her origins, Rosa loves to garden. She also spends long hours practising at the ballet bar.

Rosa developed a crush on her father figure, Constantine, and learned just how painful romance can be at an early age. Yet even the pain of this unrequited love is bittersweet, and Rosa plans to find more where that came from. If nothing else, she wants to surround herself with as many friends as possible. If these friends come with benefits, so much the better.

She's a plantsim (or is she...).

Cyclamen (Cy) Lioncourt

Aspiration: Fortune, Family
LTW: Become a Visionary

sloppy/neat: 6
shy/outgoing: 8
lazy/active: 4
serious/playful: 7
grouchy/nice: 6

Zodiac sign: Gemini
Turn ons: Hats (especially cowboy hats - he has a thing for them), a logical mind, no jocks
OTH: Music and dance

Skills points: cooking 7, mechanical 8, charisma 10, body 9, logic 6, creativity 10, cleaning 5
Badges: gold gardening, silver fishing
Simoleans earned: $3,041

Expressed genetics: green eyes, black hair, S4 skintone
Recessive genetics: green eyes, black hair, S3 skintone

Cyclamen loves to paint outdoors, while soaking up the life-giving rays of the sun. He hopes to follow in his mother's footsteps and create great artworks, or at least some really commercially successful artworks. He has a reckless heart and falls hard and fast. He had a son by his first love, Ira Inada, whom he named Thymus (Ty for short).

He's a plantsim (or is he...).

Here's a look at their profiles for the gentically-minded:

Neil: rounded and filled with Pascal-y goodness, if you're into that sort of thing. ;)

Rosa: Where Nyssa seemed more amphibian, she's quite reptilian and snake-like.

Cy: Pointy... very pointy, with a proud nose. He's almost 100% ideal plantsim in his facial genetics (but the skintone is from Nyssa).

So, yeah... there's a little genetic variation there.
