Chapter 3.1

 

Here we are.  We start off with a view of Patrick having some fun while I decide what to do with him and his sister after their birthday.

Our heiress is doing the final touches on her newest creation.

And the most tedious skill in the world is finally done after like a week and a half on it.

Opal, omg.  The next tedious thing is for Opal.  I also have to kill off someone.  Good thing there are tons of elderly.  Maybe she will get lucky and one will just die in front of her.

It’s Prank Day.  Everyone (except Patrick) decides that Opal is the target.

It’s a girls only trip to Selvadorado.  Paige and Patrick stayed home to care for themselves.  The trip is for 7 days.

The only non-family member is Randi something or other.  She and Robin will become friendly and we’ll see how it goes from there.  Robin still has her Serial Romantic aspiration to complete after Good Vampire.

Randi gets turned and becomes Robin’s second Offspring.

Dear God, the house has a bar.  We’ve lost Bella for the rest of the vacation.  At least she has close on.

We distract her at the bar where she takes over learning Comedy since we booted out Victoria and forgot that was her thing and it was level 9.  Oops.

Rachel is going to do the Archaeology Scholar, but first we knock off some new fish.  The trip literally ends at 19/20 fish.  Argh.

I love how they all sat down and chatted while listening and laughing at Belladonna’s jokes.  Robin does indeed turn the lady standing there and maybe the elder on the right.

This issue does get solved on Boolprop, but I didn’t bring it up for several hours.  Belladonna’s attempt stops here due to the eating a meal.  A.  She’s a vampire who gets sick on human food.  B. The family can drink whatever they want, but they can only eat Grilled Cheese.

Bella will now spend the rest of the vacation wasted at the bar.

Robin is on the last milestone I believe.  She can’t harvest the trees until she gets home and 14 days is a freaking long time.

Robin joins Rachel fishing, but did not get there in time to save Rachel’s social.  Victoria calls for a chat about this time and she is able to continue on.

Back at the bar, we find a lady who gives Bella’s alcoholism a run for its money.

Bella was driving me nuts, so she joins her daughters.

Robin and Rachel will need to bathe soon and get out of the sun.

Sigh.

Selvadorado stays overcast/rainy enough that the sun is actually not much of an issue.

Robin had a great time getting to know her aunt and Randi.

Rachel is stuck on Angling Ace and takes up Archaeology Scholar.

Opal is squeamish.  Rachel tortures her out in the jungle.

I have no clue what shit Opal pulled, but Lucille is pissed.

Rachel completes a tomb!

Oh crap!  Robin and Rachel finally had enough points to become completely immune to the sun.  Opal is not.  In fact, she hasn’t even reached Level 8 Vampire Lore yet.  RUN!!

Hahahahaha!  Omg.  This was the funniest thing.

Oh my bad.  She caught a a couple of fish out in the jungle and now she is stuck at 19/20.  She was resistant to everything, so this path stayed closed and she headed back to the house.

A plasma pack and a shower, and Robin is ready to tackle the hard stuff.

She had to locate and make three excavation sites.  Bella works on the first and Robin the 2nd.  The pisser is that Rachel is working on level 6 to 7.  In that time, Belladonna went from 1 to 7.  That was pretty crazy, until I realize that Rachel doesn’t have all the traits that Bella does.

In case you were wondering, Opal got sent home after her brush with death.  Plus, Paige and Patrick were constantly red.  So, maybe they needed adult supervision.

Now all three are constantly red.

Aww, Petunia’s husband died.

Opal:  Damn, I sure wish I could have seen that.

The third site is found.  This aspiration is boring for me because I just did it on my Bassett legacy.

WTF Victoria!?  No one had the option to extinguish her, but she did live.  I sent her home.

It seemed only natural that Rachel becomes Robin’s BFF.

Then the 7 days was up and we head back home.  Opal has decided to take up baking.

Opal:  You mean YOU decided I should take up baking.

While I was watching Opal gain level 3 (mostly to make sure the food got trashed before someone ate it), Rachel was in the basement maxing her skill.

She successfully gave her mom a lecture on Selvadoradian whatevers.

But now she has to write a guidebook with 0 writing skill.  That’ll take a few days.  Have fun, girl.

I was cleaning out the notification wall and this was all that was documented on Belladonna.

Well, this is technically not true.  There is Baking, Herbalism, Photography, and Selvadoradian Culture left (according to my current notes, taken several hours after this portion).

So, Belladonna is exhausted for good reason.

Most of the others are what she does when she escapes my clutches.  Her mixology skill should have hit 100 by now.

Opal is not having any fun.  In fact, her fun bar is red.  I like that Paige is cleaning up though.

Robin finally bites the bullet and joins her career.  She is stuck on Good Vampire waiting out the days, so she might as well be productive.

In case you were wondering, she has 5 days down a long time to go.

I have no clue who will be doing the Outdoor Enthusiast at this point, so Belladonna gets started with a skill book.

Oh man, I missed it.  I guess Rachel finally finished her guidebook.  Took a bit longer because she does have a job and job goals to complete.

Have fun in space.

Opal has missed her job goals two days in a row.  No promotion for her sadly.

Opal:  I hate this place.  I want out!

Patrick:  I want breadsticks!  It smells so yummy in the house all the time and you won’t let me have anything but grilled cheese!

Opal is allowed to “eat” and then she has to get back to it.

There is a lot of people in town with the Vatore last name.  Lilith did end up having 3 kids, so the extended family is huge.

It took hours and hours for Robin to get the first photography skill.  I read that an inspiring potion will help.

It really didn’t.  This was another two hours of endless picture taking.  I think one point it was just a patch of grass over and over again.

But she had to stop for her first day of work.

She looks so cute in her uniform.

Scarlet was turned years and years ago.  Probably by Victoria and was a possible spouse several times over.  She just gave birth to twins with Diego Rocca.

Robin heads to her first crime scene.  She collected evidence and took pictures before interviewing this witness.

This is my first time doing the detective career.  I tried it once but never made it past level 1.  Robin did start out at level 4 though.

It’s kind of fun/boring.  Depends on what she has to do.

Robin:  Analyzing evidence is so boring.

It took forever to get the suspect out of the cage.  It turned out one of the other cops was stuck on the other side of the station.  As soon as I reset him, Robin could grab the lady.

She looks like a hardened criminal.

Fingerprints, frisking and a mugshot.  That was pretty cool.

Double promotion day.

It will actually be days and days before Robin has hers.

Unlike anyone else in the house, Robin actually has to sleep after work.  Her vampire energy bar is always depleted for some reason.

Rachel tried to get that last fish, but no luck was to be found.

Patrick:  <whimper>  I want some of that 😦

Opal:  Too bad, tubby.

Robin is bright eyed and bushy tailed the next morning.

It was Patrol Day and it took hours to find someone to give a citation too.  It was so boring and thank god she had the sun immunity.  Oasis Springs is not vampire friendly without it.

But she gave these ladies both a citation and they were pissed.

Now she has to find a bad person in Willow Creek after adding clues to the board.

You’re not a female, but you are certainly adorable!  This would be one of Petunia and Harold’s twins.

Coming toward us from the opposite direction is the twin.

Robin is over halfway!

Lady:  I would like to report a crime!

Robin:  Okay.

Lady:  Someone stole my nose and gave me this honker!

Robin:  Is this a joke?

Nooo!

Immediately after work, Opal heads in to do her daily mischief.

Another promotion for Rachel.

After her daily goals are met, she heads in to bake.  I was getting Paige set up in Yoga when Opal maxed her skill.

Paige and Patrick in all their glory.

I wish these promotion would go faster.  Omg.

I swear, if you die at this stage, I will kill you.

Opal is now only here to work and become a Public Enemy.

Paige:  Quit following me!  Grrr.

Paige has rage issues.

Rachel will do the Outdoor Enthusiast.

Because a trout becomes fish #20.

Argh, eat 10 plants.

I stopped here to deal with the eating questions, which are solved now.
