=Trivia=
*-The family is in fact a puzzle of all my games. My computer often crashed and I therefore often had to recreated everything.
*-As a result, many of my Sims that have lived in the same towns even if many many years have passed will always meet the same other NPC and neighbors afs if the latters were immortals. This also happens in the Sims 3 since I never activate the story progression.
*-Most Dortheimers are women. And Dortheimer men are generally '''slightly''' nicer that females.
*-As for the family Tree, I realized it's rather small but the full resolution image is much bigger and accessible via the image details.
*-The name Dortheimer originates from Agatha Christie's novel ''Lord Edgware Dies'' which I read when I was ten years old. The name is mentioned somewhere in the book and I liked it. When I had to chose my newest Sim family name, "Dortheimer" is the one that came to my mind first. The other name I considered was Carbonnet.
*-The first Dortheimer I created was not the legacy's matriarch Neptuna but Huntsville citizen [[Fanon:Dorothée Dortheimer|Dorothée]]. I created after some computer crashed other Dortheimer families until I had the idea of linking all the previous families into one big legacy.
*-I created this family in 2006, when I was 13 years old.
*-Actually, the only Dortheimer which took their spouse's name are [[Fanon:Pélagie Horsepurple|Pélagie Horsepurple]] and Lady Arabelle Armataren.
*-Carole's four daughters Pallas, Judith, Rachel and Argine are named after the four queens of the traditional french playing cards
*-A common family feature is their eyes, that slightly point downwards toward the sides of the face.
*-A strange oddity, the two Aliens Bella and Barberine are exact clones of one another, yet they are not even sisters, their respective fathers (who ironically bear the same name) being cousins once removed.
*-I greatly enjoy to link the family to many other things I like, most of them being video game series:
