Family updates

I'm having trouble deciding which family to talk about next, so I'll wait a little before picking one.  In the meantime, here is some new data about the families previously introduced:

1. The Verde family actually has a daughter, born between Pierre and Jean-Claude (the one who married Gertrude Silver).  Her name is Sophie, and she's married into a family that has been mentioned but not formally introduced--the Steele family, the same one Grant Silver married into after divorcing Gertrude.  Sophie intends to be a Rock Star, but whether or not she does depends on whether or not Fashion calls her first.

2. As mentioned previously, Monty Farmer has a sister--specifically a half-sister--living in town.  She is currently changing professions, so her family may not be introduced soon.  Although...

3. Rachel Generic's brother is part of the same family as Monty Farmer's half-sister, and...

4. Kyle Jones has a younger sister who is also in that particular family.

5. I've decided to give a name (at least a family name) to the young father who was killed in an accident with his Rutherford wife and mother-in-law, leaving Samuel Rutherford a widower and Hayden an orphan.  I'll mention him when I introduce his family, but that family has also undergone a sort of change, so it might take a little while.

6. Melissa, Chris Generic's (nee Roomies) step-sister, might be the next family I introduce.  It should have dead-ended nicely, with no other outside connections to other families, but in doing research prior to beginning The Sims 2, I found out that it will have a connection to the Goth family.  Actually, I don't need to go along with that particular connection if I don't want to, but I'm fine with it.  It just means a little more thinking before I follow the connections from the Generics to that other family, because it will lead me into the Goths.  I will, though, eventually.

Stay tuned!
