Ophelia Bumps is the target sim.

I really enjoyed this challenge! Took me about 2 days to complete – and of course I cheated… you just need to know how to fool the wizard – lol.

First thing I did was send Ophelia on her Eastern Vacation. She has a lot of money so she left the next morning but for the shortest available time.

Previously when I played the Eastern Vacation Location I’ve seen only seen the ninja once; and I’ve never seen any sim do Tai Chi. This time round I saw the Ninja doing Tai Chi. But he had teleported between two fences and Ophelia couldn’t get to him to learn how to teleport. Eventually she tracked him down and learned his secret.

Ophelia also went on a tour (I think the bamboo forest one… but not the one about the Panda) and she got stung Poison Ivy. It’s so funny when they scratch

She took some time to groom the Zen garden at her hotel (and also dug in the dirt for some treasure).

She found a map to a secret place right here at the Eastern Vacation Location! She went to visit the old man. After getting to know each other he told her the Dragon Legend.

Ophelia needed some relaxation and learned a new massage too.

Back home she opened up her home business. She asked two of her close friends to move in with her (so she’ll save on employee costs). The gold cosmetology badge is by far the hardest to get for this challenge.

Ophelia worked on her body and creativity skills.

To make more money she set up her home as a venue as well as retail. Money was pouring in.

I clicked on her friend Abijeet so she can tell him the Dragon Legend, then some of the other customers also sat down to listen to the story. Nice touch EAxis.

I think I only ever bought magazines for my sims when I first started playing. They just never appealed to me and I didn’t care much if 2 sims couldn’t have a decent conversation. These challenges now ‘force’ me (in the nicest way) to build little1×1 lot newsstands. Then I just had to figure out that HEALTH would be in the Alien magazine.
