In Memory of Ebony Ladon

A Look at the Life of Ebony Ladon

Now I don’t usually do a whole chapter in memory but as Ebony was such a special Sim I thought it only fitting.  Please join me as we take a brief tour of Ebony’s long life.  I also can’t find her remains so it is unlikely we will see her ghost L
Ebony was the 3rd child of Elizabeth and David Ladon legacy founders, preceded by her brothers Toby and Jacob.
Here she is, the 1st female Sim born into the Ladon Legacy!
Ebony was a playful toddler.
And was soon joined by her sister Freya
Then came her brothers Dante and Jack
It was as a child that Ebony met the love of her life Abel.
All too soon Ebony became a teen
She was a beauty
Her relationship with Abel grew strong throughout their teen years
Before long it was time to vote for the 1st Ladon heir and you chose Ebony.
Ebony moved into a big new house and proposed to Abel
Always excited by Abel and his job as a Fire-fighter!
They were soon married
And expecting their 1st child
Lileth
Ebony’s maternity outfits were always interesting!
Lileth was soon joined by the twins Toni and Tanya.
And then Steven
It was soon after that Ebony was attacked by a vampire.
This resulted in the Legacy’s 1st vampire and vampire child, Donavan.
Ebony was living the dream
Then disaster struck.  Losing both her home and most of her family to a meteor shower, Ebony headed to Sunset Valley with Tanya and Steven to start a new life.
This was to be the legacy home for almost the next 4 generations until the move to Alexanders home and then SimLau Isles for Generation 6.
It was here that Ebony took a back seat as Tanya became heir.
Although she did enjoy her role as granny!
It was in Sunset Valley that she met Kieran Skippykitch
Ebony found new life in her relationship with Kieran
An unexpected brush with death caused her to take a look at her life
And she proposed to Kieran.
Ebony and Kieran had their daughter Hope and left the Ladon household to begin their new lives together.
They married
Sometime later Ebony was expecting again
Here is Ebony and Kieran’s 2nd child. Jereme Ladon.
Unfortunately for Ebony, Kieran did not share her long life.  However he does continue to haunt the Ladon household!
Despite her now small roll in Ladon affairs she always turned up in the most unexpected of places.
As well as attending birthday parties throughout the generations.
It was in chapter 50 of Generation 5 that old age finally caught up with Ebony.
And she enjoyed the short time she spent in SimLau.  Unfortunately it was here that she finally gave in to Mr Death and went without a fight.
RIP Ebony Ladon Gen 1 – Gen 5

Meet the Neighbourhood – Townies

Welcome to the pre Gen 6 chapters!!  
First I would like to quickly introduce you to the regular townies of our new Ladon Land SimLau Isles.  These were all created by myself or were generated by the game.  Some are already available on my download page, but if there is any that you would like me to upload and I haven’t please let me know.
Now I was hoping to get more of a background story for everyone but unfortunately everyone was aging and when I lost an important character to Mr Death (you will find out in a later chapter!!) I realised I needed to get the legacy rolling.  So you will find there is more info on some Sims than others.  You may also get a clue as to who our special guests are ;)
