EDIT: My computer hates the sims; but I'll leave this board here just in case I ever manage to remedy the situation. =) Apologies to ya'll!
So, I got "Sims 2" as a late Christmas present. I thought it would be kinda cool to create a custom neighbourhood, and people it with sim versions of our "Enigma" characters, to see how they interact. xD
Now, while I'm not going to install the game until I have a big enough USB (I don't want to waste my computer's memory, as I need it for university); I thought I should start this thread now so you guys can have time to tell me if there's anything specific you want for your characters. Or if, for whatever reason, you don't want your characters included. ^^
I also have the "Apartment Life" expansion, although I don't know if that affects neighbourhoods or if I can even install it without killing my laptop. I also also have "Celebration Stuff". =3
Now, each sim has to have an aspiration. While I can work out some Enigmians ones (I presume Khai would be knowledge?); others are more difficult. Here's a list of aspirations, in case anyone would like to tell me what they want their character's to be:
Grow Up- all toddlers and children have this one. That's it.
Romance- the sim wants as much romance as possible, with as many people as possibly... Unlike all other types of sims, romance sims fear having children with other sims. xD
Family- the sim wants above all a stable, loving family life. =)
Knowledge- the sim's chief desire is the acquisition of new knowledge.
Popularity- the sim desires to be famous or infamous. xD
Fortune- the sim wants to be rich and to have nice things.
NOTE: Due to my reluctance to install mods, white or pale grey furred characters will likely be designed as blonde. I have no idea what to do about golden or yellow eyes- brown or hazel, maybe?

Khai would totally be Knowledge.
Ivonne would be... Grow Up. XD

I'm still trying to decide whether Arland is Romance or Fortune.
Hakima is probably Knowledge, maybe Popularity. I'll have to read her profile again.
Procella won't work unless I model her-mostly-after Amelie. xD
Thanks for your help! =D
Also, I may have to design a family for Ivonne, since I don't think you can have random children. Unless I just say Ren-sim is her father, for the sake of simplicity?

Dis is nice. I've got the Sims freeplay, but it's on my tablet which is not connected to the internet.I could get it on my phone, but the download is a bit too much data for me.
Av is probably knowledge.

Thank you! =D
There are personality things too, like laziness vs motivation, etc; but I'll sort those out later.

I've never really looked into sims. it seems sort of interesting to me, though.
Yeah, you can put Ren as her dad.

Kewl.
I'm sure much hilarity and chaos will ensue!
DON'T BUY IT if you know what's good for you. It is super addictive. It took me a week to get it out of my system last time. xD

I got the USB today. So, today, I will install the game and work through the tutorial so that I don't screw things up for our poor Simigmians. xD
Tomorrow, the creation of said sims will begin! =D
I'll probably start with Arland. I feel I should practice with mine before I move on to the beloved darlings of other people. xD

hahaha This is awesome!
Victoria Kensington: (a total red / ginger) definitely popularity and fame. While not fearing to harm others while she is achieving her aspirations / an excellent liar and actress, being very devious and persuasive. She is a plotter.
Tzeitle Kensington: (she can probably just have black hair/fur for simplicity's sake.) she is harder. She is definitely very shy. Perhaps wanting a sturdy loving family could be her aspiration. She can also be kinda "out doors-y" and she would love to ride motorcycles and be a mechanic. *shrug* what ever works for you.
Peter Thorne: (I can totally see him as a blond). he would probably be aspired after knowledge, fortune or love. He is also a mechanic but much more outgoing and very confident.

Thanks, Feather! Your descriptions are very...descriptive, and should make things pretty easy. ^^
I've been having a few problems with the game which I need to sort out before proceeding. I've already checked that my drivers are up to date, so it's not that. But when I edit the mouth, the character's face goes all crazy and deformed and I have to return it to default. xD
Also, I get kicked off the character creator after spending a few minutes on it.
However, I have two houses up (I used presets out of laziness, because this thing should be about the characters more than the houses anyway): numbers 1 and 2 Barracuda street, which are for Ren and Arland. xD
I'll let you guys know when the game is working properly. Or better.
As an additional note; I uninstalled both of my add-ons to see if that would fix it, so there will be no birthday cakes or magic. =(
