ASIASHAMECCA: The Selvadoradese Owl
In 1539, the shaman craftsmen of Selvadorada paid tribute to Charles V of Spain by sending him a sapphire owl encrusted with jewels from golden beak to precious metal pedestal. But pirates seized the galley carrying this priceless idol and the fate of the sapphire Owl remains a mystery to this day. Choose wisely Simmer. Hard-boiled detective, femme fatale, sniveling sidekick, bungling gunsel or vile villain… all paths have their merits, but only one will solve the mystery of… The Selvadoradese Owl.

OVERVIEW

Asiashamecca: This one has been rolling around in my head for a while. It's based on the Maltese Falcon. Sam Spade, Brigid O'Shaughnessy, Casper Gutman...oooohhh it's a gritty, hardboiled film noir classic. If you like mysteries or old movies, I highly recommend it. Both the movie and the book are amazing. I got stuck on the idea of making it into a career and here we are. You can play through the story as the detective, the femme fatale, the villain, his minion or his gunsel flunky. I set up a Sim for each character and had a great time making them act out the story (as much as the game would let me anyway. Each level of the career is a chapter of the story and you can read it by hovering over the career icon on the career tab. Finally, hours and wages are based on EA careers. All of the skills on this one are base game. So.. slap on your fedora and pop the collar on your trench coat. It's time to solve the mystery of...The Selvadoradese Owl.

The Narrator
The Selvadoradese Owl transports you back to a time when the good guys were bad, the “dames” were worse, the nights were dark, and everyone smoked indoors. This is hard-boiled detective noir, where nobody walks away happy, and the best a good guy can hope for is live until the end. Settle your fedora over your eyes and flip the collar on your trench coat. Or marcel your hair, put on your red lipstick and killer heels… OR, press your white suit, grab a flunky and practice that evil laugh. We have a mystery on our hands Simmers. How will you play it?

There’s a treasure to be found and a good-looking dame. Stan Spade is the man for the case. He’s tough as nails. His mind is quick, and his morals are ambiguous.

And she wants to hire the services of a private detective to find her missing sister, who supposedly ran off with a crook named Thursday. You and your partner, Starcher don’t buy it.

Chapter Seven
Back at the hotel, Gutson tells him the story of the Selvadoradese Owl. He offers Spade $100,000 to find it and 25% of the sale. Giza drugs Spade and you all leave to intercept the Owl… Which for some reason is coming in on a freighter from Hong Kong. You don’t know why. You just work here. Someone dropped a slip of newspaper that basically tells Spade where you’re all going, but we’re sure it wasn’t you.

Chapter Eight
You search the freighter. The Captain is gone, and the bird is nowhere to be found. You manage to accidentally set fire to the boat. The whole boat. On fire. But whatever, all Gutson cares about is that bird. You all head over to O’Pancake’s place. If she’s working with the Captain, that’s probably where he’ll turn up next. He does. You shoot him. He escapes. He escapes with the dang bird.

Chapter Nine
You threaten O’Pancakes until she calls Spade and sends him off on a wild goose chase to a fake address while you search his place for the Owl. It isn’t there. But when he turns up, he says he has it. He’ll give it up for the money, but he needs a patsy to go down for the murders. Gutson offers him you. Wait. What? But you’re like a son to him! "If you lose a son, it's possible to get another.” Says Gutson, “There's only one The Selvadoradese Owl.”

Chapter Ten
Well there may be only on The Selvadoradese Owl, but this one isn’t it. It’s a fake. Spade lets you all go (like he had a choice with all the guns in the room pointed at him), but he calls the police and turns you all in. Well, mostly you, for the murder of Thursday and Captain Jacob. But Gutson and Giza too. You’re all going down, but at least nobody else gets the Owl!

Asiashamecca’s careers were some of my favourite careers and arguably the best CC careers created for TS4. Unfortunately, Asiashamecca has not been active for a couple of years and their careers no longer work due to various game updates.

I recreated these careers for my personal use but I have decided to share them so other can enjoy Asiashamecca‘s fantastic work.

I do not take any credit for these careers.

If Asiashamecca updates their career posts on ModTheSims or TSR, I will delete mine and link to them instead.
