Description The Dortheimer family may be old and huge legacy but it's members all are acquainted to the others. All it's household are rich beyond belief and most of them are highly powerful in SimNation. They are however also known for the evil side that lurks deep inside most of this matriarcal legacy's heirs' hearts (assuming that they have one). Number of generations 19 generations

How it all began

Once upon a time,

A young woman from Veronaville, Neptuna Dortheimer

Married a handsome young man named Saturnin Loviper.

She was happy with him, but she passed over

Her newlywed husband's twisted and mad nature.

She had three lovely children with him:

Auda, Jeanne and Célestin.

After the kids reached the age of twenty,

Neptuna discovered her husband insanity,

But too late: for apparently no reason,

He chased her in their luxurious mansion

And when he finally reached her,

He whacked her with a huge hammer.

The three children, seeing their mother dead on the floor,

Cried upon Neptuna's death.

They decided Saturnin wouldn't kill anymore

And made him give up his last breath.

They drowned him in one of the nearby rivers

And sunk the body into the dismal waters.

They swore to each other that never ever

Would any Dortheimer perish like their mother.

They would narrate the dire events

To any of their descendent

As such they wouldn't ever

Trust anyone like did their dear mother.

Description

The Dortheimer family is an enormous matriarcal legacy with actually counts 19 generations. It's members are presents in most cities from SimNation, and some even had taken part of SimNation's government. They all stacked moutainous amounts of cash for the past centuries and ganied power, fame and wealth.

However, they are also known to count a wide number of evildoers, criminals, black widows and corrupted politicians in their ranks. The Dortheimer's spouses generally don't last long: this is the result of the first generations of the family who teached their children to never trust anyone: they should never ever marry anybody in order to preserve themselves from Neptuna's fate as much as they could. However, Astrid Dorrtheimer, the first really evil Dortheimer, shuffled the tale and taught her own and her sisters children that the should marry and them eliminate their spouses in order to protect themselves from being killed by them. In fact, Astrid mostly had after the in-law's money.

The Dortheimer also are generally very intelligent and ruthless, making them dreadful and dangerous, especially when it comes to money: many are proficient and greedy sharks that would never stop at anything to get what they want. Adn they are either loaded or bright enough to avoid slammer.

There are some exceptions however: some Dortheimer are highly caring and and good-hearted, but they often are intimidated or overshadowed by their evil relatives. The exception would be Marcia Dortheimer, who cut off all the bridges with her family when she learnt that her mother and the latter's sisters iced her father.

Activities

The Dortheimer are or have been very influent in most publics domains, most notably business, the Underworld and Politics (usually assorted with many sordid cases of corruption). Here's a non exhaustive list.

Underworld

The legacy bears among its members some of the greatest criminals of all the time. First, spouse murdering is almost a family traditions. And even if they genarlly are highly suspected, no one could ever have gained enough proves to send then behind bars. Moreover, despite their gruesome reputations, the Dortheimers usually find a husband/wife.

But there are some who in addition to this are members or leaders of criminal organizations searched by all the polices of the world. The best examples would be Rénata and her great grandmother Astrid who ruled over the Underworld for their entire life and gained millions of Simoleons with blackmail, robberies, hold-ups, murders and kidnapping among others

Examples of criminals: Rénata, Astrid, Désirée, Adryen, Théo, Raymonde...

Politics

Many Dortheimer are involved in Politics. But the honest ones are inexistant. They all have been involved in cases of misappropriation of public funds, rigging markets and many others. They generally members of one of the big political party Democratical Sim Union (DSU), which has always been stuffed with occult funds gathered by it's many members.

Examples:

• Victorine Dortheimer, actual mayor of SimCity, Senator and Minister of Economy.
• Stella Dortheimer, actual mayor of Huntsville (a self created town which is based on the small township from BigFishGames's casual game Mystery Case Files Huntsville and minister of Education.
• Andrée Dortheimer, former deputy of Twinbrook.
• Angèle Dortheimer, former deputy of Pleasantview and Senator
• Florian Dortheimer, former Prime Minister and Minister of Justice, as well as former Senator.
• Mallorie Dortheimer, former mayor of Bridgeport, murdered during her mandate
• Marie-Dominique Dortheimer, former mayor of Strangetown
• ...

Business

The Dortheimer all have a natural sense for business, and this led her to be the CEO of many world-sized enterprises. For example, MorcuCorp has been directed by the Barnacle Bay lineage of the family for centuries, since Vanda Dortheimer. They, pretty much like the Landgraabs, own various shops, restaurants, enterprises. One of the most notable Sim from this category would be the first owner of the restaurant Le Dindon Gras in Riverblossom Hills, Gladys Dortheimer who died while she was trying to make costumers happy and manipulable.

Science

Some Dortheimer also are prodigeous Scientists. The great Inventor Claudia Dortheimer and the university teacher Simone Dortheimer are classifiables in this category.

Being present in many many SimNation towns, the Dortheimer legacy owns a large number of houses which usually are rather costly. (This gallery is not exhastive for now)

By Town

Veronaville

The town where everything began. In my games for now, the "veronavillian" Dortheimer are from the 6th and 7th generation, being called Marguerite and her two children Adeline and Théo. Marguerite just bought the Lighthouse Garden Shop on the river banks.

Barnacle Bay

Here lies MorcuCorp's head office directed by the local Dortheimer branch. I did not develop this part of the legacy so far. For now, the CEO are Margaux Dortheimer, from the 6th generation of the family. She lives with her wife Marie and hee daughter Raymonde.

Hidden Springs

the 6th generation member and actress Gorgonie Dortheimer moved here to gain eternal youth. However, her daughter Ursanne didn't want to ee her mother live forever and therefore keep all the money for her decided to polish her off to inherit. Gorgonie was one of the very few dimwitted Dortheimer and Ursanne is so far the only one who murdered one of her ancestors. Another branch of the family I did not develop much. Currently at 8th generation.

Sunset Valley

At first, the town was inhabited by the criminal Astrid and her descendant, but later, her descendants Sierra and Orsolina sold the house to one of their old cousins Lily. Lily's descendants still live in the town, in a tudor house near the cliffs. Currently at 17th generation of the family.

Riverview

Gisèle Dortheimer was the first one to arrive in this town. She moved twice, but her last house burnt and her son Lucas bought a new house on the hills, which is still inhabited by his sister's descendants. The house is notable for the enormous underground maze where many people are buried. Currently at the 14th generation of the family.

Twinbrook

The Dortheimer own a marshy mansion in the expensive part of the town. At first inhabited by Clara Dortheimer's daughters, the latters' descendants swapped theitr house with their cousin from Pleasantview. Now, Florence Dortheimer lives here with her daughter and granddaughter. The house was also inhabited by Florence cousins Hortense Hortense and Francine during their youth.

Bridgeport

4th generation's Pekoe and her two daughters lived here for a while before moving out. 9th generation's Mallorie became the town's mayor but she was murdered by a crazed maniac. After that, no one moved in this town again.

Pleasantview

The first one to have moved here was Pekoe's daughter Octavie. Her family remained here until Hortense's mother swapped her house with their cousins in Twinbrook. Currently, the Dortheimers living in Pleasantview are from the 11th generation.

Strangetown

After selling their tudor house from Pleasantveiw, Orsolina Dortheimer moved here in a moroccan Manor. She currently lives with her newlywed husband and her daughter Marie-Dominique. Currently at 1th generation. I just recreated Orsolina and her daughter, so not much happened in this town.

Desiderata Valley

Marcia moved here after fleeing away from her family. Another branch which is not really developped. Currently at 7th generation.

Belladonna Cove

10th generation's Adelmire just move here. The least developped part of the legacy.

Starlight Shores

The Amazing Hortense, world famous magician, and Francine, detective, moved here with their mother Lisbeth when the latter was thrown out of their manor in Twinbrook by their cousin Florence. Currently, and elderly Francine lives with her card-obsessed niece Carole "Caro", the latter's husband and their daughter Pallas, 14th generation.

Riverblossom Hills

Many Dortheimers lived here. At the fifth generation, Astrid's niece Charline moved here. The family remained here until Gisèle's fiancé's murder. Some years later, the house was bought by Gladys, from the 13th generation after her seashore villa from Huntsville burnt to the ashes. She also bought a successfull restaurant, Le Dindn Gras. Her granddaughter Arlette sold the house and bought a semi-greenhouse manor. When it was destroyed by an incoming satellite, they moved back in the sleepy town of Huntsville where they rebuilt the ruins of tthe red seadhore villa. Shortly before their return to Huntsville, another part of the family moved in: Phyllis moved here from Sunset Valley. They first bought Gisèle's old home but then moved into the biggest house in town when Phyllis' Great-Great-Granddaughter Victorine became mayor of SimCity. Currently at 19th generation.

Huntsville

A self-created town. Pekoe's greatgranddaughter Dorothée moved here in the red seshore villa mentioned above. The family remained here until the villa's destruction. Some time later, the villa was rebuilt and the family came back. Currently at 18th generation.

Family Tree

• I'm awfully sorry about the awful quality of this paint-made family tree, but I don't know how to make it better. Morevover, It would be far too long to re-create all the lost Sims and moreover, with pictures, it would be totally uncomprehensible (it is already rather complicated). I can just hope one might understand what's on it. At worst, I can always delete it.

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 nocer 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.
