The Concept

Introduction

Hi everyone! So I thought of a new story to do, however I need sims. This story will be about the animals of the Chinese Astrology. If you haven't heard of the legend, here are links to introduce the concept:
http://www.12chinesezodiacsigns.com/chinesezodiacs...egendschinesezodiacsigns.shtml
http://www.chinesezodiac.com/chinesezodiachistory.php

Instead of animals, I'm going to use sims for the story. Each animal of the Chinese Astrology will need a sim representing them. Of course, they do not need to look like them but the sims have to have the characteristics embodied by these animals.

It may require a little bit of research, but it also has an advantage for you because you can learn more about your own sign.
 

The Animals

The animals of the Chinese Astrology are the following (in no particular order):

  • Rat 
  • Pig 
  • Dragon 
  • Horse 
  • Dog 
  • Ram 
  • Rooster 
  • Ox 
  • Monkey 
  • Rabbit 
  • Snake 
  • Tiger 


How It Will Work 


As I said, I need sims. They will embody an animal. Since there are 12 animals, they will be split up into two households. Six sims per household.


I will be sending out a quiz so you too can participate on how the story will go. Here's the catch, it will not depend on your answer on the quiz but HOW you will answer the quiz. This quiz will be sent out only twice. First, upon the completion of the cast. Second, when I need the plot already. 


Your answers will determine the storyline. And of course, you won't find out from the quiz how the story will go. I'll be taking care of that. 


If you have applied and didn't send me back a quiz, the sim you've submitted will die.


Rules


More than one sim can apply for the animal
You can submit more than one sim
Only one sim per animal will be chosen
CC is welcome but please link me to the CC (both for Sims3pack and .package)
No coloured skin please - only the normal skin is allowed.
There will be 6 females and 6 males accepted


Additional Info 


The sim will be chosen according to the characteristics and physical appearance of the sim. I said they don't have to look like the animal but it will be better if they have that certain aura of the animal they are portraying.


Entry Form 


Your name:
Animal applying for:
Sims name:
Picture of your sim: (doesn't have to be in CAS)
Link to sim:
Link to CC:
Sims email (for the quizzes):


There are no reservations, because more than one can apply for the animal so there's no competition for the spot really.

-------------------------------------- 

I will announce the cast once this has been completed.  

I will certainly push through with this if it gets enough casts/attention.
