River Curious (né Smith) was the husband of Nikto Curious and father of their daughter Sarah and son Kade Curious.

Biography[]

Before joining the family[]

Not a whole lot is known about River's family and his upbringing before joining the Curious family. His family seemed to have been in Strangetown for generations, but always kept a low profile. It is unlikely that he is related to the Smith family, but if they were they are probably very distant relatives. When, after the death of Olive Specter the remains of Luc Smith were found on her grounds, River's parents would not confirm nor deny that Luc was related to him. This led him to believe that Luc could have been his older brother, who disappeared just a few years before his birth. Because of this theory, River got inspired to look into this and other mysteries the town might have been hiding, hoping to find more about his brother and save the ones that are still out there waiting to be rescued.

Teenhood[]

While hanging around town with his friend Samuel Riley, River runs into Nikto Curious. Fascinated by his appearance and obsessed by fulfilling his hunger for mysteries, River simply needs to get to know Nikto. He learns that Nikto also has a brother with the same complexion, and is even more convinced he needs to get to the bottom of this. He befriends Nikto, and learns all about his extraterrestrial nature. Although River's intensions at first are strictly business, he starts to like Nikto more and more, even so much that at some point River might think his feelings for Nikto go beyond friendship. Not sure how to express these feelings, and unsure how Nikto might react to them, he decides to wait and just stay his friend.

One day after school, Nikto calls River and says that he desperately needs to talk to him. Nervous and excited that this might be the moment River has been waiting for, he rushes over to Nikto. Once there Nikto confesses that he has had a crush for a long time, but on no one other than River's friend Samuel. Crushed by this River leaves the house and stops answering Nikto's calls. The two stop talking for a while, until one day Nikto shows up at River's front door. Nikto, finally realizing what kind of an idiot he has been, confesses that his love was for River all along, and Samuel could never match up to him. River, overjoyed, jumps into Nikto's arms and they share a heart warming kiss. The two immediately go steady after that.

When River tells Nikto about his brother Luc, he immediately offers to talk to his father and see if perhaps he has some more information he can share. River gladly accepts this offer and starts to come by the Curious house every day to see if Pascal's research is any help to him.

Adulthood[]

After graduating high school, River moves into the Curious household. It just seemed the logical thing to do, as he was there on a daily basis already and often slept over. In order to continue his research, River got a job in the science career, which much pleases Pascal, as his own son decided to go a different way in life and not follow into his footsteps.

River meets Klatu's fiancée Marsha Loner and the two immediately build a great friendship. As he spends a lot of time with Marsha and her very pregnant belly, River starts to think about Nikto and their own possibilities, and if they would even want children together or how that would be. This does not go unnoticed by Nikto, and he proposes to River. Surprised but happy, as he never thought marriage would be for him, River accepts.

When his cousin-in-law Lucifer asks his girlfriend Tessa Loste to move in with them River likes her immediately as well. Although his friendship with Tessa is slightly different than Marsha, it being that Tessa is part of the green-mystery family. The three get along greatly, and often joke to be "The Curious' Wives".

One morning River wakes up sicker than a dog, the rest of the household gets suspicious. With half of them being aliens themselves, and the other half being alien experts, they assume this can only mean one thing; a little miracle! Not sure how this could have happened, River patiently listens to the theories of Pascal and Tessa, as they share their own personal experiences with alien pregnancies. Pascal is thrilled and fascinated to retrieve more information from River, as he was not conscious for his impregnation. As far as River is concerned, Nikto and himself did nothing out of the ordinary besides what two Sims in love would do. Almost everyone in the household is happy for the two, but his brother-in-law Klatu made it clear that he is not excited about another alien joining the house. Luckily River feels the exact opposite and can't wait to meet the little one. As River grows bigger and bigger, Nikto brings up their plans of marriage, and explains that he does not want to end up like his father and his relationship with Nervous Subject. The two have a small but intimate wedding, and seal the deal before the birth of their first child.

When Sarah is born, River is a bit disappointed as his daughter does not own the same beautiful green skin like his husband. He quickly gets over this when he sees little Sarah roll around in her giant crib, looking for the warmth of her fathers. His paternal instincts immediately kick in, and takes his career aspirations down a notch. He loves spending time with Sarah and often tries to get Nikto and himself to go on little getaways in order to bond. When Sarah turns older, the two discuss the possibility of maybe getting more children, but they decide to wait as River wants to go back and focus on his career and continue his research. He reaches the top of his career and fulfills his lifetime want just before the death of his father-in-law Pascal.

With the death of Pascal, and both Nikto and River growing older, the two discuss the possibility of another child again. They decide to let fate decide, just like how it went with Sarah, and not much after that River's stomach started growing again. Their second child, and first baby boy Kade Curious is born after a beautiful and safe pregnancy. To much joy of River, Kade carries the green skin of his father Nikto.

It took both dads quite some adjusting to be able to please both a toddler and a teenager at the same time. Although it was obvious that Sarah and Kade loved each other, they would seize any opportunity to pick a fight. River was amazed by Kade's enormous intelligence, as he easily solved some complicated research River was working on when he was only a child. Because of this intelligence, Nikto suggests that it might be best for Kade to go to a private school, as it helped him so much in his school years. River is hesitant at first, thinking he might force Kade to grow up too fast, but after giving it some thought he agrees. Not wanting to give Sarah more reason to yell at her brother, they offer to transfer her to a private school as well, which she accepts.

Elderhood[]

Getting older and a bit more gray day by day, River decides to do the same thing as Nikto and retires. Although he finds it hard to let go of his research, especially the one about his brother, he decides that it is for the best and he should rather live in the now, now that he is still alive and with his family.

With the next generation growing in the current household, and their daughter Sarah settling down with her partner, River realizes that it might be time for them to move. When Marsha hears about this she invites Nikto and River to stay with them, as her son had just moved out from their house. River gladly agrees and is excited to spend some more time with Marsha. Initially River expects Kade to be excited for the move, but he told his dads that, if Sarah didn't mind, he would much rather stay in the Curious household before he would head out to college. River was slightly heartbroken and offended that Kade did not want to be with them anymore, Nikto talked him down and explained to him how he should remember how he felt when he was Kade's age.

Not long after, River and Nikto drop off Kade at La Fiesta Tech university, with many tears (mostly River's) shed. After losing his baby boy to college, River spends a lot of time with Sarah, helping her plan her wedding and throw an amazing party. He is also one of the first to know about his daughter's pregnancy. Although he tries to stay close to Kade, it is hard as Kade is living the ultimate college life. Had he on the last visit a boyfriend, on the next visit he suddenly had a girlfriend. River didn't mind any of that, but it was just so hard to keep up with those youngsters.

He is thrilled when he meets his first grandchild: Lars, a beautiful baby boy. He spends days at a time just staring at the little one, and looking for similarities between him and his mother. River is present at Kade's graduation of college, where he also announces to be engaged to Malta Landgraab. Happy to plan yet another amazing wedding, River starts to try and befriend his soon-to-be-daughter-in-law Malta. The wedding is another planner-success, but took a toll on River's health.

He learns on his death bed that he will become a grandfather once more, this time from Kade and his wife Malta. He dies of old age just before their twins are born.
