Have you read this?

Happy Valentines Day! In honor of those who'd rather just read a book, we brought you a gift! Because why would you brave a date or spend money when you could be at home with a spicy novel?

Featuring fully-designed covers, familiar tropes, and an actual plot (!), the Devil series is bound to bring your Sims some joy. And it looks nice on a table--or, if you're shy, under a bed. We won't tell. Preview gifs, more info, and download below.

In Brief Lives, we hardly get to know her and then she’s gone: a somewhat ancient Irish woman, maybe one of the fair folk, who senses something is off and just about manages to get out of her flat before it blows up (thanks to whatever Destruction has set up with his “early warning system” 🙄). She escapes in her underwear and with just her purse. And “of the Second Look” is definitely a hint at her gift of sight. But it’s also more than that if you know where to… look (ugh). And of course we’re looking (half-Celtic woman alert, I won’t shut up about characters rooted in my folklore 🤣)…

Étaín (pronounced Eh-daeen [old Irish] or Eh-deen [slightly more modern pronunciation]) is a character from the Irish Mythological Cycle “Tochmarc Étaíne” (The Wooing of Étaín). She is the wife of Midir who is one of the Tuatha Dé Danann, and we are just assuming she’s as godlike as him. But she’s really human (even if some people will tell you online she’s also Tuatha Dé in her first life, but I guess they haven’t read the Tochmarc?). I think the idea that she’s fae comes from the fact that the Tuatha Dé Danann are generally residing in the Otherworld but are quite involved with humans, and also that the portals to “our” world (the sídhe) are something we often associate with fae. And in later folklore, the Tuatha Dé are called Aes Sídhe, and those are pretty much the fae most people know.

First off this guy, Goodbad the Badgood was also originally designed by Bendix and Ian Higton, his player, specifically requested for him to be bigger/taller than Dob

And while Ian clarfies in the replies that Dob and Goodbad definitely aren't related or even from the same clan, it's the way he says it, almost like it's an obvious lie (it's not) that makes me wonder "what if they are?". The closest he could be is like an uncle that hasn't seen his like sibling in ages (due to being on the run from his clan that wants to kill him and the fact Dob and Suzette lived alone in the woods so maybe their parents ran away from home, too) so doesnt know they even had kids.

The other character, and the stronger link, is this teen in the top hat

See his name is Cedric Dinsdale, and he's a spoiled brat

He gets like almost forcefully converted to a like religious order that worships a god of light, Pelor, by that blonde cleric, Etain, because she needs to up conversion numbers and his other option is that tiefling, Morrigan, kills him/exposes him as a cheating fraud in fencing fights to the death. And if you'll remember, in Faire Trial it is revealed that Egbert was bullied mercilessly by a Cedric Albright who is a very rich and popular paladin, and I'd like to believe that its the exact same guy.
