The Broomstick Files

Welcome to my cleverly titled "Broomstick Files" challenge. *chuckles* I wanted to play around with the new "Realm of Magic" pack, and this was one of the first challenges I found that piqued my interest. I started the challenge, and continued with play.. and then I took my break from sims. When I came back, I re-read the rules to help re-familiarize myself with the challenge.... and I discovered something rather major. I'd already messed up. Instead of having the heir in the way the rules stated, I had gotten married and done things the way I usually would. I'd built a house that I adored, and had played for quite a while. Because of this, I considered just continuing, but I hate breaking challenge rules. So I thought about just using the sim I had saved from the start of my challenge and just starting over.. but that felt wrong, too. So, being addicted to starting challenges as I am, I made a new sim.. and started COMPLETELY over. Which meant a couple things. One, I needed a new house, because a starter sim couldn't afford the one I had built for the other sim. And two, I had to change my new signature/header graphic to reflect the different sim. Oh, and it also meant all the pictures I had taken and organized for the beginning of the challenge were useless.

And - just because I'm a glutton for punishment, the threads of a story had already started dancing in the back of my head, and wouldn't let me go. I had initially planned to just go commentary style, because it's infinitely easier... but I couldn't get the story out of my head, even while playing the beginning of the challenge. Everything my sim did just solidified the story, and made things more and more "real". So... against my better judgement... and after hours and hours of deliberation and arguing with myself.. I've decided that this will become my fourth current challenge that's done story-style.

So, to that end, I'll introduce the founder here, then I'll include the rest of the index and information I usually do.

Meet Caizey Farstrider:

She was created through story mode, then had her traits changed, because I realized that traits were supposed to be set to certain ones by the challenge rules. The above traits are the correct ones.

Now, on with the story....

I am a 45 year old American wife, mother, and gamer. I’ve lived in the Midwest most of my life, and enjoy it for the changing seasons. My favorite movie is Labyrinth, my favorite game is Sims 4, and I have tattoos related to both. My favorite colors are purple, red, and green. When I’m not playing games (which is rare) I also enjoy reading and crafting. I’m also an animal lover, and have had many types of pets over the years. Currently, I have a dog named Cassie who is a Jack Russel / Beagle mix and three young fancy rats (all of whom are rescues). I run this Sims 4 Blog where I post screenshots and stories about the different challenges I play. Also here are the Sims 4 challenges I've written, and a place for me to store all the Sims 4 knowledge I've gotten over the years. I am also a Sims 4/variety streamer on Twitch for my mental health, fun, and to meet new people. I have also recently been accepted to the EA Creator Network, which is a dream come true! I look forward to meeting you!
