So over on GOS they had this challenge thing going on where you choose 5 words from a list and make sims 'inspired' by them. And this is what I came up with. ^_^
For Adrenaline...
Hijinx McKay, Jinx for short. His favorite color is orange, and he's got a dangerously unhealthy love for extreme sports. He takes pride in the numerous bones he's broken (27 unique, though several more than once), and the fact that he is still alive to talk about them all. Generally, he's considered a happy individual, though he can hold a grudge like no one's business.

Cordate
Cordate basically means 'heart-shaped,' so I ended up with Anna, who has (hopefully) a heart-shaped face and a very sweet heart to match. She loves to travel, never staying in one place for too long, mostly because she really has no home to return to at the end of the day. Orphaned as a little girl, Anna was moved between foster homes until she was old enough to be on her own. When the chance came, she grabbed it and hasn't stopped chasing it since. She's a free spirit, but one day hopes that through her travels, she'll meet someone just a little like her to start a real family with, just like the one she never had.
Anna comes with a custom peggy recolor by me. ^_^

Eros
For Eros I was thinking...how could I take the ancient mythic god of love and meld him with the modern? And that is how I ended up with Eros (I kept the name cause I love it. XD) Eros grew up in a wealthy family. His father owns an extremely successful high-end flower shop chain and from the time he was twelve until he graduated high school, Eros worked in the main shop, making arrangements, giving out love advice, and on occasion, setting up a friend or two if they needed a little push. Despite all his match-making, Eros isn't the kind that gets around. He's only ever truly loved one woman, and she's the one that gave him the scars on his face. He doesn't talk about how it happened, and he hasn't had a date since she left 2 years ago...
Due to a couple technicalities in one of the creators' terms of use, Eros comes packaged in maxis undies. ^_^ Enjoy!

Rebel
I decided that I'd take a bit of a different take on the word. This is Niccola. Her family is a little...interesting...so to speak. To make a long story short, she comes from a long line of con men, and didn't exactly want to carry on the family business. She's very shy and a bit of a bookworm. While her 3 brothers and father are out on a job, she stays home, gets A's on all her papers, and cooks when inspiration strikes her. She doesn't like the business, and though she was originally drafted into it like her brothers, she stood up to her father and demanded that she be allowed to live her life the way she wanted to. Generally being so soft-spoken, Niccola's harsh words came as such a shock to her father that he agreed to her terms immediately. Nowadays, the only time she comes in contact with a con is when patching up her family post-job.

And finally [b]Zero[/b]
Meet Patient Zero. Though he has the ability to, he doesn't speak, instead deciding to communicate through hand signs. He only has memories from the past five years, nearly all of which has been spent inside a lab. He was told there was something special about his genetic code, but no one will tell him anything else. The only possession he owns from before his memories began is a small silver locket with the picture of a smiling little girl inside. He doesn't know who she is, but thinks that someday, if he can escape and find her, that maybe she might hold the key to who he really is...

July 21, 2013-Indian Lake- Governor Andrew M. Cuomo hosts 1st Adirondack Challenge Festival in Indian Lake
So far, this competition has mostly focused on clothing and body... and not so much on one of my favorite physical attributes: hair!
This challenge, we are taking our models to a hair show, so we want to see some avant garde hair styles! This can be achieved however you see fit: extensions, wigs, even photo editing. In this challenge, clothing comes second, and should be used to accentuate your overall look.
"The Goppin Challenge is a Royal Marines designed cross-country Obstacle Course Race intent on burning your legs, annihilating your lungs and covering you in sh*t!"
Organised by a team of former & current Royal Marines delivering our 'Goppin' Challenge obstacle races within Somerset. Our passion is providing people with fun, challenging events to promote team-work and self-belief in unforgiving environments!

Entering Portsmouth 24 Aug 1984

Details from Wikipeda
HMS Challenger was a unique vessel in Royal Navy service — she was purpose built to support deep sea operations and saturation diving. However, she was commissioned in 1984, during a time when the Royal Navy was cutting back on expenditure, with the consequence that the Challenger was seen as an extravagance that the Admiralty could not afford. As a consequence, after less than ten years service, the ship was laid up and offered for sale. The ship was purchased by a company called Subsea Offshore, to be converted for work decontaminating hazardous waste dumped in the Baltic Sea and North Atlantic.
In 1993 the ship was purchased by a company called Subsea Offshore, to be converted for work decontaminating hazardous waste dumped in the Baltic Sea and North Atlantic.
The vessel was later bought by the Namibian Minerals Corporation (NAMCO), and fitted with equipment to recover diamonds from the sea floor. The ship was converted at the Nauta Shipyard in Gdynia, Poland, and made its first diamond recoveries in December 2000. The ship was bought by De Beers in April 2003 for US$20 million
Just for fun I decided to go back to December 2010 and start doing all the Diva Challenges. Here are the first two. On the left is Challenge #1 - Simplicity...which to me means simple string and monotangle. The tangle I did was Nightsbridge with several variations. On the right is Challenge #2 - 2pencil string. I had never tried that before at all. The tangles I used were BTL Joos, Barberpole, Ragz, Onamato, Spokes, and Zigzag border. I thought it looked incomplete, so I sponged on shades of green and brown ink and now I like it.
