A ''[[The Sims|Sims 2]]'' alphabet legacy written by [http://seventeentheye.livejournal.com SimAddicted13]. A chapter list can be found [http://boolprop.prophpbb.com/topic377.html here]{{Dead link}}. Sometimes abbreviated as ATOR. The family is now in its 15th generation (generation N, couting the founding generation as the first).

{{tropelist}}
Tropes found in this story are:
* [[Abusive Parents]]: Actually more of an abusive grandparent... {{spoiler|Chad to his granddaughter Electra.}}
* [[Alphabetical Theme Naming]]: This is the case with almost all the characters (at least all the ones born in the main legacy line), since the story is after all a Sims 2 ''alphabet'' legacy.
Line 30:
* [[My Beloved Smother]]: Johanna becomes this during her kids' teen years. Because of her past experiences with Fernando's deceit, she forbids them from dating anyone at all, and even from inviting friends over.
** There is also Lillian from the House of Fallen Trees heirline, who loves her son Howl so much she ended up {{spoiler|killing her own husband Gabriel and her daughter-in-law Rosa (Howl's own wife)}} so that no harm would come to Howl.
* [[Only the Leads Get Aa Happy Ending]]: Subverted in pretty much all cases. Many of the main characters have been murdered during particularly plotty story arcs. Some of most uninteresting spares, who eventually fade into the background, have quite dull, but safe and mostly happy lives.
* [[Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette]]: Helena and Haley, and also some other descendants of Lisa.
* [[Parental Favoritism]]: Very present in every single generation. The most extreme example is perhaps {{spoiler|Jo's favoritism towards Electra}}. A second important example would be {{spoiler|Grizabella favouring her youngest child, Haley}}. The most recent one would be the one of {{spoiler|Lillian}} from the House of Fallen Trees heirline - the only one out of her family members she cares about is {{spoiler|her son Howl}}. Just so that he would be safe, she {{spoiler|killed her own husband Gabriel (Howl's father), Howl's own wife Rosa, and was very willing to do the same to her daughter Helled. Thankfully, Helled was saved at just the right time}}.
* [[Put Onon a Bus]]: Most spares from the earlier generations. Since spares are immortal in this story, they just end up fading away and are (mostly) never heard from again.
* [[Really Gets Around]]: Some of the Randoms with the Romance aspiration fall into this trope, Dio being the most notorious.
* [[Self-Made Orphan]]: {{spoiler|Felicia}}, who killed {{spoiler|her mother Electra}}. {{spoiler|Helled}} may very well end up becoming this also, since she has now vowed to kill {{spoiler|her mother Lillian}}, after she caused the death of {{spoiler|the daughter Helled gave up for adoption, Morgause}}.
Line 43:
* [[Underestimating Badassery]]: {{spoiler|Emily}} did this with {{spoiler|Electra}}, with disastrous consequences.
* [[Unexpected Successor]]: {{spoiler|Muriel}}, who ends up becoming {{spoiler|the generation M heiress, despite being her parents' sixth and youngest child. She had not even been considered as an option when her parents and grandparents first decided who would be the gen M heir}}. After {{spoiler|her sister Marta gave up the heirship}}, though, {{spoiler|she was the only one who would take it}}.
* [[Unto Us a Son Andand Daughter Are Born]]: Most of the sets of twins in this family were boy/girl ones. The generation L heir, Landon, and his wife Ana Cláudia "Lala" had this particular trope happen to them ''three times in a row''.
* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: {{spoiler|Bellatrix went insane}} after she accidentally shot {{spoiler|her own daughter Clarice}}.
* [[Your Cheating Heart]]: {{spoiler|Nathan}} cheated on {{spoiler|his wife Electra}} with {{spoiler|her sister Emily}}.
