Fanon:Strangetown (imageneralwheee)

Strangetown is a neighbourhood that ships with The Sims 2 base game, which is filled with many mysteries. The town is mostly dry desert, and there is a nuclear powerplant and an Alien crash site that can be seen when exploring. There are many Alien-Sim hybrids living in the town, but some Sims tend to discriminate against them, especially older Sims such as General Buzz Grunt.

Due to the town's mysterious nature, many Sims living there find themselves wanting to pursue a career in Science. However, some other Sims are convinced that the Aliens are planning a full-scale invasion, and choose to join the Military so they will be able to one day fight them.
