Welcome! :) On this blog you will find stories, how i play and videos created with The Sims 4, but also a few projects from older game versions can be found in the Archive. The old TS3 stories have their own blogs. Most long going stories have a main page with index of updates.

I'm no longer on Tumblr! I refused to give all their 3rd parties unlimited access to my computer. Link still works, but no updates.

Calendar Year 228

Year 228 is about to start in my Region 12, and the high nobility houses share headlights from their events calendar. The year is roughly planned a year in advance, making it easier for their busy network to reserve time for the upcoming celebrations, and to avoid that big events conflict. Most events are set for a season rather than a specific date, details will be shared later in formal invitations. Each district will normally host one or two major events per year, and most houses will accept only one invitation per season.

This year we will see no weddings, but probably a  coronation.

More details can be found below. Low nobility houses might get listed only for big events such as weddings, birth, death or a new Peer. The full calendars are available in the community section. Here is the major lineup - including some events to be reported on this blog - for the upcoming sim year 228:



San Myshuno covers two districts; Meadows (Meadows, Fashion District, Upperton) and Myshuno (Spice Market, Arts Quarter) which are split by the Myshuno River. Meadows also includes Magnolia Promenade, which is home to low nobility Lord of Prome, held by the House of Rab-Saxor.


House of Saxor

It looks to be another rather quiet year for House of Saxor.

This Spring Duke Victus and Duchess Gloria will attend Military Tribute Day ceremony at the Meadows, like they usually do. They will also attend the 50 years anniversary of "Friends of the Meadows", an organization that volunteers to keep the Meadows property tip top. It's questioned whether Lady Corva (22) might join them, although she is on the Meadows Trust's payroll.

In Fall Duke Victus will attend this year's Farmers' Festival.

In Winter, Duke Victus, Duchess Gloria and Lady Corva will all attend the investiture of the 5th Baron Myshuno, Rainert Ross.


Sovereign: Duke Victus of Meadows

Meadows District Order will host its annual gala dinner at Torendi Tower Penthouse in Summer.


House of Thebe

Last year Myshuno got its new Baron as Rainert (Ross) Thebe (26) was crowned. With this he also stepped up as Head of House of Thebe, which explains why he took his mother's maiden name. He is still a teenager and high school student - and probably aiming for a few university years, too. Activity level will be low for the coming years, but he is expected to be assisted by his mother, Ribra Lynn (Thebe) Ross, Duchess of Rossie and former Head of House of Thebe.

This Spring Baron Rainert will attend the Military Tribute Day.





Sovereign: ...

In Winter Baron Rainert will knight new members of the Myshuno District Order, and he will probably host his first District Order Gala the same night. Current only members are Duchess Ribra Lynn of Rossie and Lord Vintec of Prome. Because of recent restrictions stated by the Royal Chamber, members can no longer be chosen freely, so it will be interesting to see who might be the lucky ones.



Brindleton's two high nobility peerages are the Dukedom de Cavalier (Sable Square, Cavalier Cove) and Deadgrass Lordship (Whiskerman's Wharf, which organizationally includes Deadgrass Isle).


House de Cavalier

This Spring gets busy for House de Cavalier. After the House split, Old-Duke and Old-Duchess no are no longer on B rindleton Trust's payroll, but that won't stop them from representing House de Cavalier. Both elders will slow down, though.

In Spring Duke Charlopold will host his very first Brindleton District Order gala dinner. He will also attend the Military Tribute Day, for the first time not one step behind his old father.

Then, still in Spring, Old-Duchess Claudine will attend the Farmer's Festival that is hosted by Brindleton Bay this year, with the Old-Duchess as a committee member.

This Summer Lord Leon graduates from university. It has not yet been announced whether he will move back to Chateau Cavalier or what his future commitments will be.

In Fall Old-Duke Aquess and Old-Duchess Claudine attends Rossie District Order gala dinner.

In Winter Duke Charlopold and his father Old-Duke Aquess will be hosting the Moon Memorial Day event at deadgrass Isle.


House von Fyres
Siobhan (Fyres) Hump (45) | Baroness Morgan of Verde (35) | Ms Ailis Fyres (12) | Mr Kalic Fyres (8)

Dominic Fyres is the current Lord of Deadgrass. Lord Deadgrass is Region 12's only Lord that is ranked high nobility, which is unique also in SimNation. Because holding the peerage remotely his wife has no title related to Deadgrass, but up to now she was known as Lady von Dresden, where they reside (Windenburg).

Dominic Fyres also used to hold the titles Lord von Dresden and Lord von Haunt (both in Windenburg), but is now directed by Royal Chamber to obey the rules of having only one peerage per person. An announcement is expected this year, but no later than Year 229.

This Spring Lord Dominic will attend the annual Brindleton District Order gala dinner, he will most likely bring his wife, Lady Moira von Dresden. He will also attend the Farmer's Festival at Sable Square in Brindleton Bay.

I Winter Lord Dominic will attend Moon Memorial Day at Deadgrass Isle.



Sovereign: Duke Charlopold de Cavalier

The Brindleton District Order annual gala dinner takes place at Chateau Cavalier in Spring. Duke Charlopold de Cavalier is now sovereign and will host the dinner for the first time.



The Gloom Barony covers Upperton, Willow Field, Muggerdale and Evergreen Harbor.


House von Kaching

This year turns out quite differently from what was previously announced and planned. Royal Chamber has directed the Gloom Barony to postpone the coronation of Baron Bud's Successor, Lord Edward. High nobility's privileges seem to be restricted, an announcement is expected shortly.

Last year Lord Edward married Lady Meriell de Cavalier. Their first child is due this Spring, which will occupy much of their time. Lady Merielle is technically not yet member of House von Kaching, nor on the Gloom Trust's payroll, but she has insisted on assisting her husband when representing.

This Spring Baroness Rose will attend the 25 years anniversary of Simmerville Studios, which is located in Gloomville.

In Fall Baron Bud turns 80 years old. A performance at Fun Factory, where his daughter Lady Aili (von Kaching) Landgraab is the Manager, is in the planning.

In Winter Lord Edward and Lady Merielle will host the annual Brixerwood Memorial Day. 



Sovereign: Baron Bud of Gloom

Gloom District Order will host its annual gala dinner at Umbrage Manor in Spring.



Oasis Springs' only high nobility peerage is the Verde Barony, covering Verde, Dusty Turf and Nookstone. StrangeVille is administrated by Oasis Springs, but is not a part of the barony.


House of Sax-Donnersmalt
Lady Vitorina Cordenza (3) | Lord Dominus Juan (2)

It tends to be another quiet year, which is no surprise with Baron Auphor's high age, and with two toddlers in the house. They need to limit travel activity, but will of course attend most local events.

This Spring Baron Auphor attends the Military Tribute Day alone. Being the Patron of Military Forces Reg12 RC-164 Squad, he will probably never let this annual salute down.

In Summer Baron Auphor and Baroness Morgan will attend Myshuno District Order gala dinner.

In Winter Baron Auphor and Baroness Morgan host the Von Donnersmalt Memorial Day.
 

Sovereign: Baron Auphor of Verde.

The Verde District Order annual gala dinner that takes place in Fall at Yuma Height Palace.



The high nobility peerage, Crest Barony, expired some time ago. Currently House of Dipperwell is the highest ranked family, as they hold the Priest of Church of Similius, which ranks as high nobility barony. The Priest title is no real peerage though, and includes neither Old Crest, Crestville nor Rivercrest. Also the old Crest District Order expired long ago.

No specific events taking place in Newcrest this year.


House of Dipperwell

Priest Antonius Dipperwell works at the Church of Similius, located in Gloomville. He can not choose not to attend any event. This year will be rather ordinary, especially if the Gloom coronation gets cancelled.



Outside Region 12

Region 12 covers San Myshuno (incl. Magnolia Promenade), Gloomville (incl. Evergreen Harbor), Oasis Springs (incl. StrangerVille), Newcrest and Brindleton Bay. Here are a few more districts:




Windenburg district covers the hoods Oldtown, Lykke (Harbor & Isle) and Dresden. The only high nobility peerage is the Windenburg dukedom, covering the entire district. This district is administrated by Region 28.

This Spring sees the wedding of the Duke and the local Monastery turns 125 years old!


House von Heimlich
Lady Mirarda (5) | Lady Brinhilda Louise (1) | Lady Onette Saphira (1)

The household now counts 3 toddlers and because a male heir will be needed to bring on the House, nobody should be surprised if the Baroness gets pregnant again, with less representation. She is now on Windenburg Trust's payroll, though, and is expected to appear at some local events.

This Spring gets real busy with 3 events to attend: Duke Merlin attends the annual Military Tribute Day, despite not being in the Military career. Duke Merlin and Duchess Mandy have accepted the invitation to Brindleton District Order gala dinner, and finally Duchess Mandy will - for the first time - represent alone at the 225th anniversary of the Monastery of Church of Similius. The monastery is nearest neighbor to Von Windenburg Estate, so is should be possible even if she is highly pregnant at the time.

In Fall both Duke Merlin and Duchess Mandy will attend the 225 years anniversary of the Haunt Peerage, to be  celebrated at the Haunt Estate Museum. This will also be their way to honor the dead of the  gruesome Von Haunt Estate fire taking place 130 years ago.


Sovereign: Duke Merlin von Windenburg

In Winter the Windenburg District Order annual gala dinner will be arranged at Von Windenburg Estate.



Rossie district's high nobility is the Dukedom of Rossie, covering Henford-on-Bagley (Finchwick, Old New Henford, Bramblewood), Britechester (Gibbs Hill, Britechester, Foxbury) and Forgotten Hollow. The Rossie area is is administrated by Region 11.


House of Ross
Lord Rainert (26) | Lord Robert (17) | Lord Julius (14) | Lord Magnor (8)

It's a rather quiet year for House of Ross.

In Spring Duke Jarret and his brother Baron Bennet Shiningham attends the Military Tribute day, like they normally do.

In Spring Duke Jarret and Duchess Ribra Lynn attend the Gloom District Order gala dinner.

In Fall Duke Jarret and Duchess Ribra Lynn and Baron BNennet Shiningham attends New Dimension Day.

In Winter Baron Bennet Shiningham will host this year's Ross Memorial Day by invioting locals (and touriss) for guided tour of Shiningham Hall at Finchwick.


Sovereign: Duke Jarret of Rossie

The annual Rossie District Order gala dinner takes place as usual at Rossie Palace in Fall.
