HelpNyx' Choose-Your-Own-Adventure KUY CAF - Round 12 (grandchildren)
Ok, the rules are pretty simple, I'll be providing two or more options, and you follow the "adventure" that suits you best. Each "adventure" will have it's own set of naming rules for that round. Stories are optional, but always enjoyed and encouraged :) Ages are optional, and you keep track of them yourself. I will not be killing off any family members in this game, but you may chose to do so yourself. I'll provide links to each previous round, so you can quickly find your family. You can chose to sign up and join at any time, just work your way to the current round.
Note: Just because your chose Adventure # in one round doesn't mean that you are stuck with that # for every other round. Each round you can chose your own adventure (hence, the name).

DC = Darling Child, or a first generation child. All other children are second generation.
If you wish, you may have a couple split/divorce in any round. If they divorce in round 6, they can remarry in the next spouse round. (This is the last round in which a couple can split and still remarry!)
Any DC may have children this round. Each DC may only use an adventure once. However, if DC#1 uses Adventure 1, DC#2 can also use that same adventure to have their own children. Each DC may use any, all, or none of the adventures in this round to have children. If your DC uses this round to have a child, and is not in a stated relationship, the child will NOT be related to whomever they marry (if they ever do) in the future. If you want to, you may chose to change any DS/DD to an AS/AD. The naming rules still apply, and as much of the story as you can make work.
Please add 5 years to the ages of your current family
On this round I only gave FN/MN instructions. If you wish to add additional MNs, they are completely up to you.
Adventure 1:
You're DC/Spouse are thrilled with the arrival of a new daughter. She's now 5 and just starting kindergarten. Everybody that knows her already expects that she will do great things as she gets older. She's the sort of girl that has a very kind heart and can't stand to see anybody suffer the slightest. She's also a very take-charge/get-it-done sort of personality, and usually uses that to help others in some way. Her kindergarten teacher half jokes that she'll be the first female president of the US.
---- DD: _____ _____ (5)
Her FN comes from one of the following lists (please chose a name that is in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS): http://nameberry.com/blog/2009/05/07/mom-names-the-names-of-famous-mothers/ or http://nameberry.com/blog/2010/02/19/black-history-names-cultural-heroines-of-the-harlem-renaissance/ or http://nameberry.com/blog/2009/10/28/heroine-names-worthy-women-with-notable-names-part-2-cultural-icons/, and her MN comes from one of the First Ladies of the United States (FN, MN, or even surname if you chose http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_First_Ladies_of_the_United_States).
Adventure 2:
Wow, your DC/Spouse had triplets! And these three are a handful! Both boys are rough-and-tumble and the girl is an odd mix of major-tom-boy and frilly-princess. The three of them are usually climbing, jumping, fighting (sometimes dancing), or practicing their gymnastics in inappropriate places like the couch or beds. Your DC/Spouse keeps them booked in activities (like preschool, gymnastics, swimming, etc.) in an attempt to keep the occupied and out of trouble (which mostly works).
---- DS/DS/DD: F* _____ / B* _____ / V* _____ (4)
Triplet1's FN starts with "F", Triplet2's FN starts with "B", and Triplet3's FN starts with "V" (you can feel free to mix up the order of whose FN starts with what letter). All 3 of the triplets MNs are "old-school" nicknames (nicknames that were in common use in the 60's or before).
Adventure 3:
Your DC/Spouse had a son 3 years ago. He is a quiet child... In fact, he has yet to say a single word. He does sign though, and the doctors simply think that he is taking his time on speech. However, while he may not speak, he does read. He is constantly picking up his books and reading them. He's been tested, and he is in fact able to read and comprehend from what the doctors and his parents can tell.
---- DS: _____ _____ (3)
His FN comes from the following page: http://www.namenerds.com/uucn/top05highlightsxy.html, and his MN is one of the "international" translations found on this page: http://www.namenerds.com/uucn/international/.
Adventure 4:
These two are very into music and dance. One will sit on the piano and pound away at the keys while the other dances. After awhile, they'll switch places. Your DC/Spouse has started referring to the piano as the "babysitter".
---- DS/DD: _____ _____ / _____ _____ (2)
Both twin's FNs come from the following page: http://nameberry.com/blog/2010/10/18/film-noir-names/, and both twin's MNs share the same meaning.
Adventure 5:
Your DC/Spouse has had a baby girl. She's now a year-old and everybody's little favorite. She's got a smile that lights up her whole face and a bubbly personality.
---- DD: _____ _____ (1)
Her FN comes from the following page: http://www.petbabynames.com/Names/category_results.php?category=Color%2FAppearance%2FBreed (You can use any name on this list from Amber to Zipper. Please note that the list is split between 5 pages), and her MN is a color, gem, or flower.
Adventure 6:
After an uncomfortable pregnancy, your DC/Spouse has given birth to a son. They are thrilled with the latest little addition, even if he doesn't come close to sleeping through the night!
----- DS: _____ _____ (nb)
His FN is from the following list: http://www.behindthename.com/top/lists/200it1427.php (But you may translate the name to a different language if you want. Ex. Giovanni can become John or Evan, etc.) and his MN honors a family member.
