## Life Leading Up to the Sims 4

Caliente was originally born in Brindleton Bay, and grew up on a large family ranch/farm of his grandmother's. Caliente became interested in drag during his high school years. He moved to Newcrest shortly after high school to focus on drag, and began performing professionally by the time he was 20.

## Morgyn's Drag Race

In autumn of 2020 it was announced that the first ever season of Morgyn's Drag Race would premiere, with Caliente being one of the twelve queens competing for the crown.

Caliente debuted in **"Trash to Treasure"**, having done well in the main challenge and was praised by the judges, however the very first win went to fellow Queen Galaxia.

By Episode Two, **"Makeover Magic"**, Caliente gave Raj Khemlani a makeover outside Waterside Warble in San Myshuno, his runway look as well as his makeover skills earned him his first challenge win.

In **"Queens will Vary"**, Caliente performed a fire dance that he had learned from his step-mother who is of Sulani origin. While he did not win the challenge, he did impress the judges with the professionalism in his fire dance.

During **"What's Up Beaches?"** Caliente shared mild involvement alongside Galaxia, building sandcastles. Caliente would have a waterballoon fight with Parsley and Fortuna Kookie, though the win went to Lapis.

For the **"Snatch Game"**, Caliente portrayed famous socialite sim Bella Goth and many in-jokes references to her marriage to Mortimer Goth and implications that she married him for the money. While Caliente's portrayal and runway were both good, they were not good enough to earn him the win as it went to Crow for his portrayal of Miss Crumplebottom.

During **Just Book It!,** Caliente struggled to launch her book to the judges and found herself in the bottom three to lipsync against Icy and Parsley to *"You and Me"* by Tiffany. Caliente and Icy both outperformed Parsley, whom had fouled up several moves and simply could not keep up with the likes of Icy and Caliente, and was sent home.

In **Frozen Fantasy,** Caliente was paired up with Lapis and wore a pink wool sweater-dress for the Christmas Tree photo shoot. Both Caliente and Lapis' photos were praised by the judges, though Caliente's less than impressive runway and perhaps due to the suggestion of the other queens, landed her in the bottom two for a second time, this time against her friend Extra having to lipsync to *"Catch me I'm Falling"* by Pretty Poison. Caliente had just one outfit reveal, quickly ripping off her pink coat to reveal pink lingerie. Caliente had successfully outperformed Extra, who had relied mostly on voguing and more simplistic dances, and was allowed to remain in the competition. While onstage Morgyn asked Caliente whom she thought should go home, Caliente remarked hesitantly that it should be Extra solely based upon her progress up to that point. Galaxia was also asked who should go home, she suggested that Caliente should be sent home due to having only scored the one win ages ago, and seemingly being content with being a "pretty girl", though Caliente ardently rebuked these claims.

For **Maskueraid**, Caliente donned an electronic DJ Helmet for his PSA and urged sims everywhere to 'mask up' to protect their elders from catching Rabid Rodent Fever via person-to-person contact. For the runway, Caliente wore an pink designer dress, an elaborate Venetian mask, and a glowing crown resembling a sunray. After a painful deliberation, Morgyn decided that Caliente, Galaxia and Lapis would be tied as the winners for that challenge, leaving Crow and Icy in the bottom two to lipsync.

For the ninth and finale episode of the first Season, the "**Grand Finale**;" Caliente and the other queens were tasked with performing a dance routine before the judges on a newly renovated grand center stage. Caliente would be interviewed by Morgyn and would list her reasoning for wanting to be crowned Morgyn's Magical Queen. On the stage, the queens were given one last challenge, to present three different runway looks in the themes of; "fun & flirty, ravishing in red, and royalty". Caliente chose to wear a pink short-skirt "princess" look for her final runway and lipsynced for the first and last time against Crow, Galaxia and Lapis, to "Open your Heart" by Madonna. Ultimately despite giving her all, Caliente came in fourth place to Galaxia.
