I would get Stephanie only if you really like her and want to add a different less glamorous IMO character to your library. She requires different clothing, very hard to tweak anything other than a loin cloth between them. I do like Stephanie, she seems perkier than Vicki who is far too exquisitly beautiful for me to tell stories with her. I like little Steph, I also prefer David. But they do take more money to clothe. There are some wonderful new face morphs out there for Steph that take away the clunkiness of her features that turned me off at first. But still leave her slightly ungainly and Real. But, no, you don't Need Her. Emily
