Family Album

1

Harley and Tywin came to a mutual truce after much arguing and dirty looks.
‘We’ll leave things for now, and pick on the next kid together!’ Tywin announced.

2

And with impeccable timing, the next Kaplin child decided to arrive that very night.
‘Oh come on, I wasn’t finished my cereal yet!’

3

Thus Dracula was born. Yes, Dracula. This narrator is overjoyed that she allowed her boyfriend to name all the children…

4

Yuki’s sister was invited over one afternoon so she could meet her niece and nephews.

5

This narrator may or may not have mentioned this already, but rules of succession for this legacy is first born is heir, thus Harley was set the unenviable task of trying to complete as many aspirations and skills as possible so as to be the best damn heiress possible.
With that in mind, she decided to check out this mysterious tunnel that sits just off the Kaplin estate one day.

6

Luckily there she met this rather sad looking lady and was able to kick-start her social aspiration.

7

The woman left fairly quickly and so Harley decided to amuse herself, but first she needed to relieve her bladder.
‘No one was looking, I’m good,’ she said when she re-emerged.

8

A quick dip in the pool while she had the chance and then she headed back home.

9

Where Dracula was growing up.

10

It is the opinion of this narrator that the Kaplin kids are cute!

11

With three kids on the lot and aspirations to fulfil, some playground equipment was bought for them. Dracula, in particular, loved playing pirate.

12

Harley didn’t have time for such frivolous fun as she built her motor skills. She was still enjoying herself though.

13

Tywin spent most of his childhood being the most helpful child in the house.

14

Yuki was less than pleased when she discovered she was pregnant during a shift at work. She was a little happier once informed it would be the last child of the generation.

15

Having completed the creative and mental aspirations, Harley decided to drop by a few houses the day of her birthday in the hopes that she could knock out the final tier of her social aspiration.

16

The only thing she needed was to make friends with three kids and there just so happened to be a house full of them in town.

17

It took her a long time, but she finally managed to make enough friends to complete the aspiration. The family was pretty happy when she announced she was leaving.

18

And just before she left the lot, she grew up. Which is a shame because the family had intended to throw her a party.

19

After a quick makeover, Harley joined her little brothers out in the playground – being their sea monster – while their mother watched from the playroom.

20

Harley was shaping up to be a great heiress. Note that name cards only have traits randomly rolled, not traits earned through aspirations/rewards, these will be posted under their biography on the family page.

21

With Harley now a teen, it was time to start working on those aspirations. Starting with the one that extends their lifespan – fitness!

22

‘I’m going to be the best damn heiress ever!’
