Fanon:The Plumbs
The Plumbs are a family of artistically-inclined Sims originating in Sunset Valley. The patriarch of the family, Nigel Plumb, was said to have been an immigrant from Riverview by way of Yorkshire, England. The family symbol, the white rose flanking the plumbob, reflects their place of origin, and several family members have this symbol as a tattoo. The unlikely matriarch of the family was Jamie Jolina, who passed on her musical traits to several of her descendants, including, most notably, her son, Nathan Jolina-Plumb, a renowned musician and composer. Her grandson, Sebastian Plumb, is an actor and musician. Her granddaughter, Savannah Plumb, is an author and adventurer who is now a part-time professor of history and paranormal studies at Sims University.
The Plumbs made their name and fortune in the entertainment business. Margaret Plumb was a noted novelist of mostly speculative fiction, most famous for the six Moon Colony books. The aforementioned Nathan and his longtime partner, Shandra Bellingham Plumb, the mother of two of his children, is a hit movie composer. The multi-talented Shandra herself became the first female conductor of the Sunset Valley orchestra, wrote, and painted. Bridgeport-based Sebastian won both a Simmy and a Sim's Choice Award for his acting, one of only a few actors to nab both statues. There are signs that a new generation of performers is on the way as Savannah's daughter Skylar has begun to act and sing as well.
The Plumbs, blessed with high intelligence (via Jamie Jolina) and artistic talent, also have a history of self-destructive behavior. Nathan Plumb dropped out of school the summer after his freshman year, devoting himself wholly to his music. His son, Noah, eloped with his girlfriend, Sadie Alvi, when both were teenagers, and his grandson, Neil, even lived with him for a time after his issues became known. His daughter, Savannah, was also wildly out of control, and three of her children (one adopted and two biological) have been remanded to Fort Starch Military Academy for this same behavior. One of those, Sierra, has an extensive record which includes arrests for breaking and entering, malicious destruction of property, curfew violations, truancy, vandalism, and assault.
