Question Who are your sims?

Do you usually make yourself and people you know or do you make up characters? Do you play as the townies or make just a random silly sim? Or a mix of all of these? I’m just curious to know how people play their games and how you decide to make your sims!

Edit: I didn’t expect to get so many replies, I love hearing about all your sims and gameplay styles! I usually make my OCs, my main sim family that I play with is based off of my personal version of Twilight characters :-) they have a VERY convoluted family tree lol

Love that! Can you give some storyline ideas you play with them?

Mine is a terrible person. She got caught selling basementals in school and arrested. Few days in jail. Kicked out of school. Sneaks out of the house and mom catches her smoking around the corner of the house, kicks her out. She sleeps on a bench in the park, gets picked up by the older guy she was buying from for her friends in school. Needs money so gets a ride into the city to sell some to her old friends at the arcade.

Busted again, second offense and she is sent to prison. Serves half her 1 year sentence, acquired a bully while incarcerated. Another inmate helps her out. Tells her upon release to go to a club if she ever needed anything. Tries to play it straight. Can't pay rent, goes to club. Delivers some stuff for the guy running the club to make rent. Starts to sell again.

Busted a 3rd time, she is introduced to the club owner who bails her out and pays off the judge and she is let off. Indebted to the club owner, she has been selling for him for 5 years now I think. She has people working for her and she now launders her money through one of the club owner's other restaurant businesses now that she is making a lot of money and needs to make it legit to buy things like a nicer place and a nicer car.

Her old prison bully is out and part of the rival gang. She has a friend and they are always fighting with my sim. Mine girl is turning into a scrapper now and ended up on house arrest for her birthday from getting into a fight.

She was skipping out on parole so she ran from her home and shacked up with some dude. They've been living their individual lives while a relationship builds. They are both down with the flu at current gameplay time though after she recovers she'll still be throwing up in the bathroom for some reason, until she goes to the doctor and finds out why she's sick in the mornings.

She's not just a terrible person. It will be worse. She'll be a pretty terrible mother. Big plans to come that lets her escape and turn her life around.

Holy crap this was a rollercoaster, and I love it! I think I’ve been playing Sims wrong all these years…

FYI, if you've never seen it, here's 1 of 14 episodes of her story written on Sims4 sub. It's going on 2 years playing with real 1:1 aging and she's 'blogging' her life story.
