  •         GENERATION 1: The Hopeless Romantic🧁


Your natural talent for baking bread and decorating sweet treats made you think that owning a bakery would be a piece of cake *pun fully intended*. So, with stars in your eyes and every last penny to your name, you poured it all into opening your dream bakery. What you didn’t expect was to fall in love and get pregnant so quickly. For a while, life felt perfect. Business was picking up, your little family was thriving, and love was sweet. But out of nowhere, someone else walked into your life. And just like that, your heart shifted. You never thought you'd be the heartbreaker, but… the heart wants what the heart wants.

You left your partner for this new love, and soon after, found yourself pregnant… again. The bakery was booming, your kids were getting along, and your heart felt full. You were madly in love, and for once, everything felt just right. Until they walked in. The moment you saw them, it hit you. Love at first sight, all over again. You couldn’t ignore it. So you broke things off once more, chasing what felt like your true soulmate. You just can’t help that you’re a hopeless romantic.

That’s where you met them. The one. Or at least, you thought they were.

  •       GENERATION 3: Teen Pregnancy 🍼


Growing up, it was hard trying to live up to your parents expectations. Especially when they’re both successful doctors. What's even worse is that your high school partner got you pregnant and suggested you drop out to raise the baby. Telling your parents was the scariest part. They were livid. Too scared to stay, you and your partner ran away, leaving everything behind, and had to start from scratch. You gave birth to your baby and showed it so much love, while trying to make ends meet. Once a young adult, you joined the athlete career for some stable income, but quickly realized you want to be more involved in your children's lives, so you decide to open your own dojo or yoga studio. Soon enough, you’ve built a life for yourself and a beautiful family. And you did it all by yourself, without the help of your parents.

  •       GENERATION 4:  Brotherly Love 💰


You grew up in a loving and comfortable home. Your parents worked hard to give you everything you wanted but comfort was never enough. You dreamed of a life of true luxury, where you were financially abundant and free. You knew it wouldn’t be easy, but you had to try. As a young adult, you moved out, determined to make your own way. Using the skills you learned at home, you landed a job as a stylist at the local salon. But barely scraping by wasn’t the life you envisioned. You needed a way in, to insert yourself into the world of the wealthy. And what better way to do so than to marry into it?

You quit your job and set your sights on the political world, where the rich and powerful mingle. You studied hard, built your reputation, and quickly climbed the ranks. With your high charisma and growing fame, it wasn’t long before you caught the eye of someone influential. But there was a catch! They came from old money—and their entire family hated you. Everyone, except their brother. He seemed to have taken a liking to you…

  •       GENERATION 5: The Tragic Musician 🎧


I don’t know why, but growing up, you always seemed to gravitate towards music. Your parents were super wealthy so of course they bought you the newest and coolest instruments. As a teen, you even started a band with some friends and often held jam sessions at your house. Once you left home, you decided to join the music career (symphonic track). Romance wasn’t really on your mind. Yeah, you would date around and have casual hookups, but it wasn’t until one day, you had an instant attraction to a sim and just HAD to get to know them. Your relationship was steamy, but shallow, as deep conversations were something neither of you had an interest in. You/your partner ended up falling pregnant so you decided to get married because of it. Once in married life, the relationship got toxic. All you could do was fight and have arguments. You even fought on your child's birthday. It was time for a divorce, which, your now ex-partner took everything from you, forcing you and your child to move into a dingy trailer. How did your life fall apart before your eyes?

  •       GENERATION 6: Body Artist 🎨


You watched as your parents argued and argued until everything exploded on your birthday. You decide to rebel and purposely do bad in school, skip curfew, go out drinking and attend parties. Once a young adult, you decide to go to university and have casual hookups with a rotation of four sims. At a crazy college party, you hookup with all four in one night and get pregnant without knowing who the father is.

  •       GENERATION 7: Man's Best Friend 🐾


Everything just seems to fall into place perfectly for you. From your amazing relationship with Gen 6, to being with your high school sweetheart, the one you’re sure you’ll marry someday. You know what, why wait? Right after graduation, you land a job as an art appraiser (or journalist who writes articles as an art critic) (Gen 6 always asked for your feedback on their work, so why not get paid for it?) and start planning your dream wedding. You go all out, celebrating with both your family and your fiancé’s. Everything is going perfectly! Until the night before the wedding. At your bach party, things get out of hand. You get totally wasted and end up having a secret hookup with your fiancé’s best friend. The next day, unable to face what you've done, you leave your fiancé at the altar and retreat to the wilderness to live.

There, in the quiet of nature, you begin to heal. You discover a deep love for the outdoors and animals. Slowly, you pick yourself back up, learning to garden, flower arrange, and eventually open a small petting zoo that draws in locals from nearby towns.

  •      GENERATION 8: Ride or Die 🚨


You were the perfect child. Respectful to your parents, hardworking in school, active in afterschool activities, and kind to everyone you met. Everything about your life seemed on track… until you met the local teenage delinquent, the one everyone warned you about. Something about them fascinated you. Their recklessness, their confidence, the thrill they carried, it was intoxicating. Against your better judgment, you started dating, and before long, you were hooked. You knew the things they did weren’t right, but you didn’t care. Being with them made you feel alive. That was the beginning of your descent into a life of mischief and crime. You dove headfirst into their world, and together you swore, it was you and them against the world.

On your first day as a young adult, everything changed. You found out you were pregnant. The two of you moved in together, and it wasn’t long before you realized your partner was deeper into the criminal underworld than you’d ever imagined. But you stayed. You were loyal. Years passed in a blur. One child became two, then three. Your home was full, and your nights were spent working in the shadows. It was a given that this life was dangerous, but you never thought it would end so soon… leaving behind children who now must navigate the world alone.

  •      GENERATION 9: Curse Of The Older Sibling 🕊️


They’re gone. Your parents are gone and they’ve left you to raise your five younger siblings on your own. You knew you had no choice or you’d all end up in the foster care system. So you quit school and devote your life to raising your siblings to the best of your ability, putting your entire life on hold. Luckily, your best friend was there to help you every step of the way! Part time and odd jobs were definitely not enough to put food on the table, but you had to wait until you were a young adult to be able to apply for something consistent. But it seems you weren’t cut out for corporate life. So you become a freelance inventor.  You refused to let your siblings struggle like you did, so you do everything you can to put them through school and set them up for success. Once they’ve all moved out, that's when you can start living life!

  •      GENERATION 10: The Glow Up 💅

Growing up, you watched your parent sacrifice everything for their siblings, leaving little time or energy to focus on you. It didn’t help that you were the weird kid. The background blur. The one who never got invited. You spent your childhood in oversized hoodies, headphones in, hiding from the world and you’d often get teased because of it. But when you aged up into a young adult, you made a decision! You weren’t going to stay invisible. You hit the gym, got a new wardrobe, started posting on social media, and suddenly, the world noticed. The “you” they ignored is now the one they all want. The transformation is shocking. You become everything they said you couldn't be.
