Melody Tinker

Melody Tinker is one of the pre-created Sims that was shipped with Open for Business. It's hinted that she was to take over the family toyshop, but apparently she has other plans. Some have suggested she will be an artist. She is a public school student, and has a C average. She is very neat, and not too outgoing, both of which she gets from her parents. When you first play the family, she is fourteen days away from becoming an adult.

But unlike her parents, she is not very playful, which may be one reason she doesn't want to run a toy shop. She has no other skills besides creativity, but has a fair amount of that.

She wants to get into private school, and get a job either in the science career or the medical career. If Seasons is installed, she may want to get a job in the Adventurer career. She also wants to get her first kiss. While she has no memories of her childhood, the family album shows a toddler, presumably young Melody, being frightened by an evil Clown-in-the-Box.
