Default The Nine Planets Challenge [Base Game Compatible]
~THE NINE PLANETS CHALLENGE~

Hi there! Dragontamer 13 here bringing you the Nine Planets Challenge!

I have a Sims 3 version of the challenge as well, you can check it out here; http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=586899

~BACKSTORY~

In a world beyond the reality we call our own, there is a guardian. She/He is the protector of the universe, one who walks among the stars to keep order among them. But their strength is failing; they have been around for centuries, and soon might come their time.... And our world will swirl out of control....

There is yet one hope; The child of the guardian, protector of the Sun. She/He will be sent to earth, in order to recruit and train guardians from among simkind, to stabilize the planets, pillars of our universe....

~IN CAS~
You'll want to start by making your main character, The Sun Guardian. I'd recommend making them either a YA or Teen. They can be male or female, I'll leave that up to you.

-For the wardrobe I'd recommend that you'd give them some sort of symbolizing item in every outfit, like a pendant or armband, etc. The reason behind this, whether it be the source of their power or a gift from The Guardian of the Universe, etc., I'll leave up to you.
-If you want to make them an alien, by all means go ahead! They kind of are alien if you look at the backstory anyways
-If you wish to give them a required trait like everyone else, I'd give them either Good or Loves the Outdoors, or choose a different one if you have one from an expansion/stuff pack or a custom trait that fits better. (I only have the base game sooo yeah)

Optionally, you can create The Guardian of the Universe. Make them mother/father to The Sun Guardian. They have no CAS restrictions as they are basically there for storyline's sake, but if you have an idea for a purpose for them by all means go ahead.

~IN MANAGE WORLDS~

They can be moved into any lot you can afford (NO MONEY CHEATS!), but if you did create The Guardian of the Universe you can either have them move into a separate lot or give them their own private building on the main lot; I'll leave it up to you.

~HOW TO PLAY~

The main goal of the challenge is to find guardians from among Simkind (AKA Townies, you may not use sims of your own creation!) for each of the nine planets (I just couldn't leave out Pluto ), an overstuffed household mod is optional but not necessary.

Once the Sun Guardian finds a sim that meets the trait requirements, build up their relationship and then ask them to move in. To become a guardian, they must complete the following;

-Max out their 'Planetary Skill' (The special skill assigned to just them, See 'The Guardians')
-Have them max out the 'Rocket Science Skill'
-Have them complete their 'Planetary Challenge' (See 'The Guardians')

After all this is completed, they will gain their 'Symbolizing Item', which is a sign of their achievements. Go into CAS and give them one of the same accessory (color and all) in every outfit. If you don't have an overstuffed household mod, you can move them out after this. If you do, you may keep them in your household.

~THE GUARDIANS~

They're listed in proximity to the sun, so you can recruit them in that order if you wish, but this is not necessary.

None of them can have the 'Lazy' or 'Slob' traits

~Mercury~

-Must have the 'Insane' trait. (based upon Mercury's varying temperatures, if you're wondering)
-Sometimes the best stories come from someone with a little insanity, so Mercury's skill will be Writing. They must max out this skill as well as the Rocket Science Skill.
-For their Planetary Challenge, they must either complete the Bestselling Author Aspiration or write 3 books of every genre

~Venus~

-Must have the 'Romantic' trait.
-Their skill will be Charisma. They must max out this skill as well as the Rocket Science Skill.
-For their Planetary Challenge, they must either complete the Soulmate Aspiration or get the Romantic Relationship bar up to full with five different sims.


~Earth~

-Must have the 'Genius' trait.
-Their skill will be Logic. They must max out this skill as well as the Rocket Science Skill.
-For their Planetary Challenge, they must either complete the Renaissance Sim Aspiration or the Nerd Brain Aspiration.

~Mars~

-Must have the 'Hot Headed' trait.
-Their skill will be Fitness. They must max out this skill as well as the Rocket Science Skill.
-For their Planetary Challenge, they must either complete the Bodybuilder Aspiration or beat 10 other sims in fights.

~Jupiter~

- Must have the 'Creative' trait.
-Their skill will be Cooking.They must max out this skill as well as the Rocket Science Skill.
-For their Planetary Challenge, they must either complete the Master Chef Aspiration or cook excellent meals for a party 8 times

~Saturn~

- Must have the 'Loves the Outdoors' trait.
-Their skill will be Gardening. They must max out this skill as well as the Rocket Science Skill.
-For their Planetary Challenge, they must either complete the Freelance Botanist aspiration or get 8 different types of 'Perfect' quality plants.

~Uranus~

- Must have the 'Art Lover' trait.
-Their skill will be Painting. They must max out this skill as well as the Rocket Science Skill.
-For their Planetary Challenge, they must either complete the Painter Extraordinaire Aspiration or create one high-quality painting of each type.

~Neptune~

- Must have the 'Cheerful' trait.
- Their skill will be Fishing. They must max out this skill as well as the Rocket Science Skill.
-For their Planetary Challenge, they must either complete the Angling Ace Aspiration or find and mount five Rainbowfish.

~Pluto~

- Must have the 'Music Lover' trait.
- Their skill will be Guitar, Violin or Piano, your choice. They must max out this skill as well as the Rocket Science Skill.
-For their Planetary Challenge, they must either complete the Musical Genius Aspiration or earn $8,000 from tips.

~ADDITIONAL RULES~

-No cheats are allowed, minus building cheats like bb.moveobjects or resetsim and the like.

-Each guardian must have their own separate bedroom, no exceptions.

-The guardians may not have romantic relations with eachother. However, say Sim 1 started to flirt with Sim 2 (Whether it be autonomous or nudged by you for a juicy plotline… heh heh) and Sim 2 rejects the gesture, Sim 1 will be kicked out of the household and must be replaced. If Sim 2 happens to accept the gesture but there is at least one witness, both Sim 1 and Sim 2 will be kicked out of the household and must be replaced. Lastly, if Sim 2 accepts the gesture and there is no witness, they may have a secret relationship, but if they are ever found out, both sims will be kicked out of the household and must be replaced.

- The guardians are, however, allowed to be with anyone outside the active household, the only rule being that their partner and any potential children cannot live on the active lot.

- To add an generational twist, your guardians may select one of their children to be an heir to their position as guardian, so long as they meet the trait requirements. Adopted children are allowed, but must have at least level 5 in their parent's planetary skill before reaching YA-hood to be qualified for heirship.

Anddd I think that's about it! Let me know if there's anything that needs clarification, if you have any questions, etc. Happy Simming!
