Tagged again- Darwin James
Darwin is so much easier that Jason to state facts for.
1. He loves sugar! Cake, pie, cookies. It doesn't matter what form it comes in. He was extremely hyper as a child and would run almost everywhere. The sugar seemed to make it worse. Catalina (Cat) indulged his sweet tooth frequently while she was alive and Melinda (his sister) still bakes the occasional cake for him. All four of his children have the same trait.
2. Darwin is a family sim and yet has never once wanted to be cured of any of his supernatural afflictions. Almost everyone else in the family has wanted him cured. Even when I stripped him down and re-applied the changes in a different order to fix the plant sim overlay issue, he didn't want to be cured. On a side note, his brother in law George keeps hoping to be bitten, savaged or made into a warlock.
3. Darwin's special abilities grow with each transformation. He was born with the ability to hear the voices of the spirits around him and after becoming a warlock and with some training from Jason, has mastered the skill. Especially with plants. As time passed he learned to understand more complex spirits like machines and sim created objects. Who knew your toaster had so much to say! He also had a rudimentary lie detection gift as a young adult.
Becoming a vampire gave him the ability to sense a sim's bio-rhythms and emotional states on a surface level. This works with his ability to sense lies. Being a werewolf gave him the ability to move in and out of the umbral plane though he hasn't yet discovered this (soon!) and being a plant sim has reinforced his relationship with the earth- something he hasn't explored much.
All that is left is to become a zombie which one particular evil entity believes will make him into a great warrior that will further her plans.
4. Cassidy has been Darwin's one and only true love. He had one date as a teen with a friend in hopes the he might get a first kiss before heading off to college. The relationship didn't go that way though and now that friend is the girl sim self Chewy threw his niece Brooke Rose over for. Cassidy was a dormie that Darwin picked out all on his own and he has never, ever strayed. When I moved her out of the main house for space reasons after their honeymoon he stood on the sidewalk and cried. :(
5. He adores all of his children despite Decker and Fisher being holy terrors. I do think he favors Chelsea a bit more than the others.
6. Despite the werewolf change draining away all of his 8 nice points Darwin doesn't seem prone to pranks or annoying people unlike his sons. He does still snack out of trash cans around the hood.
7. Darwin's one true hobby is nature AND he has randomized turn ons for cleaning and plant sims. His life time want is to raise twenty puppies or kittens.
8. He acts on instinct which has gotten him into trouble in the past. It's not that he isn't smart, just that his gut intuition often seems to be the better path.
9. His secondary aspiration is fortune. Which is very odd as he never has the "buy me stuff" wants except in the spring for plants and trees.
10. Darwin adores Brooke Rose and she adores him. When she was a toddler he was the one to play with her at night and helped her learn to walk. While she is at college he calls to speak with her a lot. More even than his own kids. They seem to have a very special connection. Expect him to interfere in her life a lot.
There you go- Darwin in a nut shell.
I'm supposed to tag five more of you out there but my friends list isn't that large and I don't want to repeat people and cause stress so, consider yourself tagged if you want to play. Also, if you have more characters of mine you want to know more about, just ask. I'm happy to post more.
