Equinox Legacy 1- the Dawning of Aquarius

Sorry, I guess I had to do that with the title. How could I not? Anyway, in case you’re wondering whats going on, I started a new legacy, to give me something to do when 100 Baby burn out sets in.

It’s a Zodiac Legacy, which you can learn more about here or here.

Meet Zephyr Equinox, our founder and head of the Aquarius Generation

As you can see, Zephyr’s got his life pretty much planned out for him. He’s going to have to have a successful club/social life (with me as a Simmer?) and have a career in Politics.

I dropped Zephyr off in Willow Creek, on an empty lot that used to have one of the nicer mansions on it.
He is summarily unimpressed with the emptiness of the lot.
But then, something piques his fancy.
“Look at me! I’m singing in the rain!”
What? Don’t you like my singing voice?

Zephyr is an Erratic sim, which means he had a totally unusual reaction to the rain. Instead of being upset by it, and trying to seek shelter (which he didn’t have right away), he wanted to play and basically relished it.

So, while he was enjoying the rain, I built him this little cabin. It has one room, no windows and a glass roof. I think he might have had a bed and shower, too, but I can’t remember. He didn’t have much.

Zephyr joins Power House
and immediately becomes friends with Paolo Rocca
Working out is fun.
But it makes him sweaty and gross. Thank SimGod that the gym has a shower!

His first order of business was to join a club, and he chose Power House, because a little time at the gym never hurt anyone. He and Paolo Rocca become fast friends.

Having no kitchen, he has to cook food on the grill in the park. Being Erratic, he does the strangest things while waiting for his Grilled Fruit to be done.

During a trip tot he dog park with Paolo, Zephyr takes time to make some canine friends.
And another one…
“Ugh, this food is spoiled!”
Mking more food, but then it starts to rain. “I seriously need a kitchen of my own!”
Hunting for collectibles to sell for $$
Fishing…. for the same reason. Because he seriously needs a kitchen!

About half way through his second day, we realized that even with a job, Zephyr wasn’t doing very well. I had him start collecting on the side. Anything you could fish, dig up or hunt down (frogs), he did it in his spare time and only just managed to get that shower and toilet for this hovel.

In the meantime, he also continued to go to work, hang out with Power House at the Gym (which helped him get the donations and things he needs for his job in politics) and meet people.

Zephyr was literally ‘struck by lightning’ upon his first meeting with Dina Caliente.

Having a water balloon fight with Paolo and Mortimer.

One night, Caleb Vatore showed up and rang the door.
But no one answered and there were glowy lights all around.

So… I didn’t even notice until Caleb walked away that Zephyr had, in fact been abducted. But the aliens only took him for a ride, not anything else more profound.

After a fashion, he had enough money to expand the house a little and buy an easel. Painting soon becomes his new way to relax and earn a little money.

Uhoh… looks like the aliens are back!

Double Uhoh…. looks like atleast one of his 3 kids are coming before he gets married!

And thus ends the first part of Zephyr’s story. Tune in next time to find out what happens next!
