My soul perished that night.
Hurt by the harsh reality of his rejection,
the deep hatred burning behind his eyes,
and the crimson blood that permanently dyed my destiny.




I don't expect anyone to understand.
How it was his company what saved me from the shadows.
How I was brought back to life by the one who was supposed to take me away.
And how in order to survive, I've also become a messenger of Death.

For it’s his touch the sole thing my numb skin can feel.
Only his breath provides the air my lungs desperately need.
and it's his greatest gift, this hope growing inside of me,
the force that brings me back to the living world every day.



Isn't it ironic, my beloved child?

That's very cool, and would be very useful for my story. I remember seeing some Grim costumes, but they were never quite right.

I think Olive has black hair in some of the old Maxis backstory pics, though. I think I recall her having black hair in the photo of her being left at the altar (which is a part of the her backstory that I've mostly ignored in my story... for now, at least... we might hear more about it when her past gets "uncovered"). It might have been brown, or it might be another example of an earlier Maxis version that changed before the final game version.

I think extracted sims get a random hair colour when you age them down, from what I've heard. Madame_ugly aged back a clone of Mortimer Goth and he was a blond. I should check it out in my game. (Actually, now that I think about it, I'm sure that Olive had black hair in my game when I aged her down in CAS. Maybe that's what I think she has black hair.)
