Nina Caliente: Difference between revisions

 

==Biography==

Both sisters are romantically involved with the engaged town womanizer, [[Don Lothario]]; apparently each without the other's knowledge. Both Nina and Don have memories of having known one another as teens. Nina starts the game unemployed; she had a job in the [[Slacker]] career track, but did not manage to keep it long. She has long red hair and wears a black halter top with pink cargo pants, though when the game starts, she is in her swimwear, a blue bikini. Nina is presumably the elder twin, as in both twins' memories, Nina always grew up first. Her mother died when she was a child and her father died when Nina and Dina were adults. When the family is first played, she and her sister are 28 days from becoming [[elder]]s.

 

The Prima Official Game Guide for The Sims 2 base game features a comic strip-style tutorial chapter revolving around the lives of three CAS Sims living in Pleasantview. One storyline involves a married female Romance Sim engaging in an affair with Nina, who is also shown to be involved with [[Don Lothario]]. Based on this, some players choose to regard Nina as bisexual, despite the fact the game guides are not really considered official.

 

In ''[[The Sims 2 (console)|The Sims 2]]'' for consoles, Nina is the brains of the two sisters. She someday wishes to study medicine but is not employed. Like her sister, she has the [[romance]] aspiration.

 

In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', Nina appears in the downloadable neighborhood [[Barnacle Bay]], along with Dina. It appears that they moved there after Pleasantview. When the game begins she is at level 1 in the [[Professional Sports Career#The Sims 3|Sports]] career. She starts out with 10 skill points in [[Charisma]] and 8 in [[Writing (The Sims 3)|Writing]], which would make her a good candidate for the Communications major if ''[[The Sims 3: University Life]]'' is installed. If ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'' is installed, she and her sister are 4 star celebrities.

 

In ''The Sims 2'', she and her sister are involved with the same man, and in ''The Sims 3'' they are involved with the same men: [[Alec Trebo]], [[Juan Jr Inkbeard]] and [[Jeff Smith]], causing some tension in their household. Her appearance is similar to what it was in ''The Sims 2'', though now she has a slightly different hairstyle and a different outfit.

 

Nina reappears in [[Oasis Springs]] and lives with her sister [[Dina Caliente|Dina]], her mother [[Katrina Caliente|Katrina]], and [[Don Lothario]]. She is a young adult, 24 days away from becoming an adult. She is friends with her mother and sister, and acquaintances with Don. The family bio implies that Don and her mother are romantically involved, however this is not actually the case in game. The bio carries the further implication that Don will eventually become involved with Nina and Dina as well, as in other games.
