The Zodiac Legacy Challenge
this challenge was written by : emberaie! but the original idea belongs to autumnalpixels!
I’ve always LOVED zodiacs & astrology & thought I would create a version of the Zodiac Challenge directed to my view of the Zodiacs! I love character driven stories & designs (since I am an author myself) so expect some drama/fun gameplay! (with enough creativity for you to build your own!)
each generation has its own theme, since I’m following a kind of banilla style of challenge (ex. Aries theme colors as hair & eyes [scarlett hair, amber eyes etc.] or you can only do the clothes or both! up to you!) I decided to make a mood board where you can look at inspo for what I think each of the zodiacs would wear! check it out! https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1sseB0-9I2Bnda78tx34tTE9iIEYukjOD7b9W7RAbVkM/edit?usp=sharing
I hope you enjoy my challenge I worked really hard on it and I love how it turned out!
If you don’t have the necessary pack for a generation goal, trait, skill. or career feel free to ignore it or substitute it.
The generations are inspired by the information I found on each sign, taken pretty literally, and are in no way supposed to be representative of real life people of these signs.
PLEASE DON’T CLAIM MY CHALLENGE AS YOUR OWN (the rules etc.)
Color Theme : Scarlett & Apricot
Style : y2k / skater (has to be comfy)
Fire | March 21st - April 19th
You’ve spent the majority of your life being the best, you're hard-working, brave and ambitious. You have a very athletic build and love fitness, since you are quite competitive. But, as you grew older you realised that when things didn’t go your way, or if you were wrong, you would get angry VERY quickly. You don’t like blowing up on people but gosh darn it how come they don’t like your idea? It’s obviously the best idea out of the rest of the students in your group. But, although you have a short-temper, that isn’t who you really are! Deep down you're actually really friendly and passionate, especially when it comes to your significant other *wink*. You never really wanted to be a parent since you would rather spend most of your time working and being with your significant other, until you accidentally become pregnant! Oh geez, at least you're good at multitasking!

Earth | April 20th - May 20th
Your parent (Aries) always put way too much pressure on you to succeed. Although you gained their hard-working and honest traits, you love more pleasurable activities that calm your mind and you are dedicated to what you're good at. Your parent always wanted you to be in something that would guarantee you a role in the community (doctor, detective, politician etc.) but all you want to do is paint and design. You're good at it and you love to be creative and just sit in your room, paint on your easel, listen to singer-songwriter and hum along. Although you are quite friendly, you had a more difficult time making friends than your parent. Once you trust someone enough, you would do anything for them. You're an EXTREME hopeless romantic and you can’t help but fall for anyone that does a romantic gesture towards you. But, the thing you value more than friendship or family, are aesthetics. Everything around you needs to look beautiful and classic, including your spouse. But, this causes you to be quite picky, causing you to have a hard time maintaining your relationships with your high standards, and the fact that if they won’t wear your new piece of clothing you get stubborn and defensive, uh oh!

Color Theme : Daffodil & Lime
Style : artsy / kidcore (young & colorful)
Air | May 21st - June 20th
You always had everything you desired as a kid, a beautiful home, loving parents and popular friends. You and your twin were always really good at school, but while they were more book-smart and nerdy, you just love to learn new things. As a teenager you were the life of the party, funny, smart and beautiful! Everyone either wanted to date you or be your friend, sometimes both! You had everything handed to you, so once you became a young adult you realised that life was A LOT harder than your parents made it out to be. Growing up you found a love for poetry and writing, but working a normal writer’s job where you have to intern didn’t really fit your vibe. You would rather stay home and write music. Since your parent (Taurus) was always humming and singing around the house, you picked up a love for music, especially the guitar. Although you and your twin are kind of different when it comes to ambitions, you love them deeply and are extremely close to them. You love your family but sometimes, you prioritize going down to the local nightclub and writing songs instead of hanging out with them.

Water | June 21st - July 22nd
You were always loved growing up, but sometimes your parent (Gemini) wouldn’t always be the most reliable parent. You ended up becoming quite sensitive and manipulative, wanting any kind of attention you could muster from your parent. Since your biological father (or mother) wasn’t really around, you relied on your older sibling for everything. They helped raise you and although you love your parent, your older sibling made a more imprint on your upbringing. You're a homebody, while your parent would rather go to a party, you would rather stay home and read. Growing up, you found a love for cooking. Especially pasta. You never really made tons of friends growing up, being extremely kind and shy could be seen as boring to many people. But, you made a close friend as kids who had similar interests. When you became a young-adult you realized you were absolutely in love with them. All you’ve ever wanted was to read all day, cuddle with your spouse and raise your kids. Since you are an amazing parent, it is your true passion in life, all you want is your children to follow your dreams.

Fire | July 23rd - August 22nd
You were catered to your entire life, given anything you really desired. Your parents supported your dreams unconditionally and you were very loved. You never really liked school growing up since all you wanted to do was be in drama club all seven hours instead of one sad hour. Your parent (Cancer) bored you since all they wanted to do was sit and read, all day. BORING! You want to be in the spotlight! Since you think very highly of yourself, it was difficult to maintain relationships since you put yourself first. But, you're very warm-hearted and once you give birth to your child, you completely abandon your arrogant tendencies. You quickly become quite protective of your little cub and your social media soon becomes all about your new child. You are determined to become the star of the sim world, becoming loved by all who see your films. You're quite determined and passionate, doing whatever you can to succeed. Unfortunately, that means that you forget to live, never thinking about others, especially your child.

Earth | August 23rd - September 22nd
You grew up in the spotlight as a child, being expected to be perfect since your parent (Leo) assigned photoshoots ever since you were a toddler. But, you hated it. You never saw what your parent saw in being famous since you found it quite exhausting. Since your parent never really had the time for you and they raised you on your own, you became quite independent. You are very intelligent and love to have control over your life. Everything needs to be clean, organized and made in your image. All you've ever wanted in life was to move away from del sol valley and work a 9-5 job. You are practical, cleanly, hardworking, and analytical. You are also very careful, you approach everything in a methodical manner and try to leave nothing to chance. You need stability in your life and commit your life to try to be as normal as possible. You are a very strict parent, trying to control your children’s lives so they can succeed. Unfortunately, this causes you to become quite closed off, especially since you keep to yourself the majority of the time. How will your emotions affect those around you?

Generation Seven : Libra 📷
Color Theme : Sapphire & Orchid
Style : romantic / feminine
Air | September 23rd - October 22nd
You had very strict parents growing up, but somehow, you didn’t really mind. You were always extremely intelligent and excelled in school. You never really fought or argued growing up as you quite enjoyed the peace and quiet where things were harmonious in your household. But, once your parents divorced things changed. Your sibling(s) became more hard and rude, and your parent (Virgo) became more controlling than normal. The entire time, all you wanted to do was to encourage harmony but as soon as arguments began you would run to your room, edit photos from your camera and cuddle your pet (generation six pet). You never liked being alone, so instead of going home early, you would stay late at work. You crave a well-balanced life with the people you keep closest to you. You want to improve your world, and the way you do that is by supporting the causes you believe most in, with your close friends supporting you along the way. Once you became a parent you full-heartedly put as much as you could give towards them. Encouraging them to do their best in school, do their chores and live however they needed to. You love your family and you want everyone to know it!

Generation Eight : Scorpio 💎
Color Theme : Black & Maroon
Style : grunge / emo
Water | October 23rd - November 21st
You were always quite smart when you were a kid, but unlike your parent (Libra), you only really saw facts or as your parent called it, black and white, good and bad. You grew up watching true crime television shows and superhero movies and decided that’s what you wanted to do with your life: bring justice and fight evil. You were always quite rebellious growing up and while your parent were very family-oriented, all you wanted to do was go running or go to bars with your friends. Although you pretend to have a harsh exterior and act like the tough kid, you're actually really sensitive and passionate. This actually helps you in the future since you could feel people's trauma and help them, even though you always thought of it as a curse. Because of your sensitive side, you have a hard time trusting people. Before becoming a young-adult you only really trust your siblings, parents and one close friend. This makes finding a long term partner to settle down with difficult for you. You keep your mind at ease by distracting yourself with your fascination for everything occultic, and working.

Generation Nine : Sagittarius 🌎
Color Theme : Navy & Copper
Style : wanderlust / casual
Water | November 22nd - December 21st
You never really liked one single hobby growing up, you loved them all! You're very indecisive and can’t decide on what to eat for dinner, but to be completely honest, you don’t really care since all you want to do is read books about far off places. Ever since you were a kid, you were fascinated with what could be, especially since your parent (Scorpio) was a spellcaster! But, sadly, you're human! Luckily, there is one more mystery that you know about. Salvadorada. The mystery and legend of treasure and adventure excites you, causing you to dream about it as a kid, nearly obsessive. Growing up you loved to travel, even if it was small trips around the town, but when you became a young-adult you couldn’t even stay in one place very long in order to explore as many worlds as you could. You didn’t really love the idea of romance since you always thought it was too cheesy and partners could be too clingy. So, you committed your life to explore all Salvadorada has to offer as well as the different worlds you live in! You were too busy for your child (or children) and let them fend for themselves since you live your life worry-free.

Generation Ten : Capricorn
Color Theme : Coffee & Cream
Style : business casual
Water | December 22nd - January 19th
Growing up your parent was always moving around, never really committed to one thing and you hated it. You crave structure and discipline, something that your parent doesn’t quite understand. While they were out exploring, you were at home following a schedule you made for yourself, helping you become quite independent. You have a traditional way of thinking and always follow the rules no matter how extreme they can be. Sometimes when people first meet you they assume you're quite serious and boring, and even though you are, you actually are quite funny. But, only a handful of people actually understand your dark and sarcastic humor causing you to be quite cold and distant towards most people since you think that no one really understands you. Will the constant walls you build up around you come down when it comes to the ones you love? Or will they stay up and push everyone away?
