Nina Caliente: Difference between revisions

She did not appear in ''The Sims 3'' base game or its expansions, but was available as part of the official downloadable world Barnacle Bay, living with Dina and a new roommate, [[Luisa Libros]]. Her bio implies that the events in Barnacle Bay take place after Pleasantview in ''The Sims 2''; however, she is a young adult in ''The Sims 3'', making her technically younger than her ''The Sims 2'' incarnation.

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 [[Slackerslacker]] 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.

She is very interested in money, fashion, and traveling, and is said in her ''The Sims 3'' biography to be a worldly simSim who is up for adventure. She is also said to be the brains of the operation.

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 Romanceromance 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 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|Sportssports]] career. She starts out with 10 skill points in [[Charismacharisma]] and 8 in [[Writing (The Sims 3)|Writingwriting]], which would make her a good candidate for the Communicationscommunications 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.

Nina has the "Super Popular" [[Lifetimelifetime Wishwish]] in ''The Sims 3''. This is somewhat odd, as it doesn't match the [[Romanceromance]] aspiration she had in ''The Sims 2'', though the [[Flirtyflirty]] trait does give her romantic tendencies. Her portrayal here also contradicts that she was very shy and serious in the original game, the opposite of her sister in personality, while here she and Dina have almost the same traits.
