02-01. Transmuting Imaginary Friends

This evening I checked on my Appaloosa Plains family for the first time since I added the new skin and eyes CC. I was happy to see that Garith and Brisha Weylor still looked like themselves, with just some subtle improvements in body textures and eye clarity.

Brisha was my first Sims 3 character and Garith was created right after her. I played them for a VERY long time ...on a life span extended even beyond Epic. They originally lived in Riverview until that world pretty much blew up in my face! But I managed to rescue not only the Weylor family, but all my other created sims from there.

The Weylors moved to Appaloosa Plains. They live in the home lot on the right, but also own the lot next to it. When they kept a horse, he stayed over on the second lot.
Right before the move, Garith and Brisha had both aged up to Adults. They're still in the early days of that stage.

Garith started out as a Sculptor and reached level 10. He dabbled with inventing, and now he's a level 7 Inventor. He has earned his lifetime wish of Tinkerer. 
Brisha reached level 10 in the Gardening career and also earned her lifetime wish of Perfect Garden. She's now level 7 in Nectar Making. 
The Weylors only have two children at home now. Both their YA son Russ and daughter Ellen have moved to different towns. But Horton and Daffodil keep the couple busy. Garith and Brisha worked together to create these two little plantsims.

Brisha havested Horton, so he carries her genetics, and Garith harvested Daffodil, so she's a genetic clone of him.
Although the family horse moved away with Ellen, Marco the Cat and Fufu the dog still live with Brisha and Garith.

The main thing I accomplished during this game session was getting rid of the two Imaginary Friend dolls that both Horton and Daffodil received. I had immediately put those dolls in the parents' inventories because I didn't want them in this family.

Checking Garith's and Brisha's lifetime points, I found they each had around 180,000! More than enough for a Philosopher's Stone. Neither one of these sims, though, had ever done anything with magic. So, I saved the game and hoped for the best. Then I told Garith to transmute the doll he was carrying.

Doll 1: Please!! I'll be good. I promise!
Garith: Sorry, but that's what all you IFs say!
He tried, but the doll just vanished! No gold. But at least it's gone! And Garith didn't turn himself into a gold statue.
It was Brisha's turn. She has the Lucky trait, so I was hoping she'd be ok. Garith looked like he was still trying to figure out what he'd done wrong. His Genius trait hadn't helped much!

Doll 2: Aww, now why you wanna do this thing, lady?
Brisha: I'm only shipping you back to that Big Toy Store in the Sky.
Brisha did it! The IF was gone and she had a nice bar of gold as a souvenir. Excellent work!
Brisha and Garith celebrated. (They're a loving couple, Eternally Faithful.)

0-Introduction. Appaloosa Plains

Garith and Brisha Weylor are now adult age. They were my first Sims 3 characters and began life in an old Riverview game. That world became so huge, it started glitching. I moved many of my favorite characters to different worlds from there. The Weylors went to Appaloosa Plains.

In AP, Brisha and Garith finished raising their son Russ and his Imaginary Friend Poppet to young adulthood. Those two moved out and are in Isla Paradiso now. Ellen, Garith's time-machine daughter from the past, is also a young adult now. She moved to Barnacle Bay with her boyfriend Cruz Martingale, also from AP.

Brisha and Garith in China. Brisha was a gardener and Garith an inventor. They're working on new projects now.
Once their own children had moved out, Garith and Brisha worked together to plant two Forbidden Fruit seeds. Each picked a new baby plantsim. Horton and Daffodil are now Weylors. 
Marco the cat and Fufu the dog are also still a part of the Appaloosa Plains household.
