[Games] Nyx' Choose-Your-Own-Adventure KUY CAF - Round 3
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'll provide links to each previous round, so you can quickly find your family.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).Signups: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/view.php?id=3913184&board=game

Your spouse has just lost their only sibling, and last living adult relative. The deceased has left behind their children to your care, a 7 year-old girl and her 2 year-old little brother.
AD: Her FN is "spunky", her MN honors her aunt/uncle (whichever spouse is related to her). She will keep her original last name.
AS: His FN is one syllable, his MN is 3 (or more) syllables. He will keep his original last name.Adventure 2:
With all of the celebrities adopting children from other countries, your couple has decided to follow suit. It took a year to get all of the paperwork done, but in the end they were able to bring home a little girl not quite 2 years-old. The whole family is excited.
AD: Her FN is trendy, but not popular (think Maddox, Shiloh, or Suri - all of which was off the charts before chosen). Her MN honors her heritage. She will have your last name.Adventure 3:
An earthquake happened 300 miles to the south of your couple, resulting in a major fire throughout the epicenter of the earthquake. It wasn't until this earthquake/fire that children's services became aware of a religious sect living in the area. The sect believed in having many children, and the number of children in the sect outnumbered adults by at least 6 to 1. Many of the adults lost their lives in the earthquake/fire, leaving many children orphans. All of the children under 10 were taken by children's services to find their families or foster situations. Most of the children were reunited with family within the sect (which was taking very good care of the children). However, there were almost 200 children who didn't have any living relatives left. These were placed in protective services. Your couple has decided that they can't just sit around, but have to help where they can. They go down and meet with children's services, and then the children. A group of three siblings touch their hearts, and they end up fostering (and eventually adopting) the siblings. The eldest was a boy of 5, the middle child was a girl of 4 and the youngest was a girl of 2.
AS: His FN/MN is religious (from Zion to Praise to Aaron, you can chose what sort of religious name was used)
AD: Her FN/MN is religious (from Zipporah to Mercy to Abigail, you can chose what sort of religious name was used)

Your couple grew up as next door neighbors. As children, they were often seen running around one house or the other. It's no surprise that they became a couple.The couple finished high school, and then finished college. They've gotten good jobs and are pretty much settling into life. Their first daughter was a surprise, but very welcomed.Being a parent (and maybe holding down a job) was harder then the couple thought it would be. For many years they considered their child(ren) an/their only child(ren). However, almost 5 years later and they finally feel like they have their feet back under them and want another child. Wouldn't you know it, they have twins!Your spouse has just lost their only sibling, and last living adult relative.

Kalena loves being a mother and when she heard about an Earth quake in a small group of islands 300 miles south of where they live that orphaned 200 children from a religious group, she knew they had to help. Alan wasn't sure about adding 3 more young children to their family, but when he met them and saw their sweet faces he couldn't say no. Zeke, Sanna, and Adah fit into their family wonderfully and Kalena is so happy to take care of them and be their mother. Kai and Nani also love having so many new siblings and they all get along great!

There were hundreds of children left orphaned. Neither could resist the chance to take in children. They adopted siblings, a boy and two girls. Since they came from a religious sect, they all had religious names. The boy, Adonijah Obedience, was Lizzie and Day's age. Damaris Mercy was four, and Bathsheba Grace was two. Mary (Damaris), Donny (Adonijah), and Beth (Bathsheba) were all grateful that they were welcomed into a kind and loving home. Plus, they adored both sets of twins.

Even though they hadn't expected to have more children, when Sadie went down to help with humanitarian relief efforts, she fell in love with a group of siblings. After consulting with Art, she offered to bring the children home to foster until the kids could be adopted. Well, Maggie and the boys fell in love with Treasure, Verity, and Patience. So, Art and Sadie went about filling out adoption papers. After about seven months, the kids had a new family to call their own. Ted, Vera, and Pattie have complicated Art and Sadie's lives, but they enjoy the children immensely.

Max and Summer knew they had to keep the children with in their family so they decided it was only right to take them in. Roxie is devasted and trying hard to understand what is happening. She is acting out so the school has suggested a psychatrist for the whole family to go to. Leo is doing ok he stays up late at night crying for his mom but during the day he is ok. Leo enjoys playing with Killian and Emmett. Hopefully the counseling will help the chidren and the family bond closer together.

Hmm, adventure 3 again this time...Sunny and Jamie were deeply affected when they heard about an earthquake so close to them. They were appalled at the devastation, and at the sheer multitude of children who were left homeless and orphaned. A reclusive religious sect had been uncovered by the earthquake as their compound had been burned and many of their adults killed. They called themselves The Fruitful, and while they were conservative in most of their religious beliefs, they took the command to go forth and multiply very seriously. The average family included ten children, and large extended families lived together in compounds. The children were taken into protective custody at first, but as the sect was benign, was not a cult, and treated the children very well, most children were returned to their parents, and the orphans were placed with relatives. But there were still many children who had no family left. These children were placeed in foster care, and Sunny and Jamie decided to open their home and hearts to these children. They got certified as foster parents and were immediately given three siblings. They were the only three survivors of their family, their parents (both only children) both dying in the earthquake.

After much research, they settle on an agency in Guatemala, and three years later, an 18-month-old little girl is placed with them. Jack and Liz quickly fall in love with their new daughter. They move her original name, Ofelia, to the middle, and re-name her Eloise to signify her new life in the US--although they definitely will make sure in the future to expose Eloise to her Guatemalan heritage. All three children take to her almost immediately, especially Callista, who is enjoyed to have a sister.
