Meet Marina Kelly, a teenager so sensible you'll swear she was genetically engineered. Marina started life as a (rather older) sim of one of my written characters, Marich; a capable, resilient barmaid in a traditional Tolkeinian fantasy world. Marina doesn't seem to share a great deal with this several-times-removed ancestor, but looks, perhaps, are deceiving.

She may be young, but Marina already has plans for making it big. She knows she can do whatever she wants - and that's precisely what she intends to do. Her ambitious nature is only strengthened by her life so far; having grown up with far more responsibility than any child should, she already knows how to run a household and spend frugally, and figures the same principles can only apply even more beneficially to her vague future business plans.

Marina is naturally quiet: not from a lack of confidence - lord knows she doesn't lack that - but from a fundamental feeling that it's far harder to say something you'll regret with your mouth shut. Unfortunately, this does rather restrict her ability to flirt - it is, after all, so very easy to end up regretting flirting with someone.

When the occasion arises, Marina is a fantastic cook. She doesn't necessarily enjoy it all that much... but a girl like Marina knows to cherish a talent, whatever it is. Perhaps this one will fit into her rise to success somehow - she's not yet quite sure how, though.

I know the fashion is for CC-free sims, but screw fashion. Marina uses a few items of CC; most are optional, though, just in case you're some kind of non-CC-using-freak. Some items are included in the .rar file, so you don't have to download them - see below.

All of Marina's clothes are basegame, but her everyday bracelet is from Late Night. If you don't have Late Night, it will be replaced with a random basegame bracelet. She is packaged with a default skin, so no shiny black monsters will be popping up here.

Very necessary CC:
  • Kitamura hair by Anubis360
  • Eyebrow 14 by Evie. These are no longer available on Evie's site, and so are included with Evie's gracious permission.

Recommended CC:
  • Luxor lipshine by daluved1
  • All included CC (except the eyebrows, which are Very Necessary) - see list below

My defaults, if you want Marina looking exactly the same in your game:
Sliders used (needed if you want to edit Marina's face in CAS):
Custom Content Included:

Thanks also to the guys in #create who helped me out right at the beginning... even if I have forgotten who, precisely, you were.
