Challenge Objectives:

Your sim will become a vampire, spellcaster, and werewolf in this challenge - the order of which is entirely up to you!

The main goal is to complete all three aspirations for whichever playthrough you choose to do.

In some instances, you will have a choice between two different aspirations for an occult type - pick whichever you think suits your sim's story best.

Master all skills listed under your desired playthrough.

Have at least one child through each occult life state. That means one vampire, one spellcaster, and one werewolf child.

Once you have completed each occult life state's aspiration, marry your one true love! They can be whatever type of sim you like.

Change up your sim's style with each different occult type for some extra fun!

Playthrough Options:

🍭 Sweet: Good Playthrough You are kind-hearted and have a whimsical soul. Since you were just a child you have dreamt of a life filled with magic and fantasy, wishing only to make the world a better, more peaceful place. With lots of research and a bit of luck you discover the existence of occults! How marvelous! You dedicate the rest of your life to finding which of these supernatural abilities will help you become your version of the Ultimate Occult.

Traits: Good, Cheerful, and one trait of your choice!

Aspirations: Good Vampire, Purveyor of Potions, and Cure Seeker OR Emissary of the Collective.

Skills: Vampire Lore, Mixology, and Gardening.

🔥 Spicy: Evil Playthrough You are cold-hearted and have a malevolent soul. Filled with anger and rage since you were young, you have longed to find a way to exact revenge on any and all you see fit. Countless hours researching at the library (and at seedy nightclubs) have brought you to the realization that occults do, in fact, exist among us. You dedicate the rest of your life to finding which of these supernatural abilities will help you become your version of the Ultimate Occult.

Traits: Evil, Hot-Headed, and one trait of your choice!

Aspirations: Master Vampire, Spellcraft & Sorcery, and Lone Wolf.

🍋 Sour: Neutral Playthrough You are mild-hearted and have a rambunctious soul. For you, life has always been about having fun with your friends and caring little about the consequences. You're here for a good time, not a long time! Or so you thought - until a chance encounter with an occult sim changes the trajectory of your life forever. You spend the rest of your life bouncing from one supernatural community to another living your best life as your version of the Ultimate Occult.

Traits: Any three traits of your choosing!

Aspirations: Vampire Family, Spellcraft & Sorcery OR Purveyor of Potions, and Wildfang Renegade.

Skills: Vampire Lore, Mischief, and Fitness.

Getting Started:

Create your Ultimate Occult sim as a Young Adult mortal in CAS. They must become their first occult type through gameplay!

Move into any lot of your choice. Free real estate cheat is allowed and encouraged as this challenge is more focused on gameplay and story, not the grind.

Household funds are entirely up to you. Did your sim recently inherit a mysterious mansion and subsequent fortune? Are they more of a Rags to Riches type of character? Get creative and play accordingly but beware - once you hit that play button you are not allowed to alter their household funds!

Your sim can have any job or career you like. I suggest picking one that will help you towards mastering your skills.

Challenge Rules to Follow:

Cheats are allowed, within reason. You may cheat money at the very beginning but refrain from doing so otherwise. Skills, aspirations, and satisfaction points must be completed through gameplay only!

The main goal is to complete an aspiration from each occult type so keep that in mind as you decide which path your sim will take. Will they start off as a vampire or werewolf? Will they settle on becoming a spellcaster instead? Perhaps the allure of eternal life is their end goal? Or maybe the occult life is not for them after all? Remember to stay true to your treat flavor of choice as you plan out their gameplay and storyline.

At no point are you allowed to permanently move another sim into your household UNTIL you are on your third and final occult type. They must be your sim's significant other.

HOWEVER, while you are playing through the first two occult life states you may move your sim's significant other into your household for baby-making purposes. (This is mainly so you can name your own baby if you are playing with a sim that cannot get pregnant themself).

Once the baby is born and aged up into a toddler the significant other must be moved out. When splitting the household, be sure to give back all (or at least the majority) of the money they brought in when they initially moved in!

Be careful when moving certain occult sims into your household, especially Sages. They will lose their Sage status if you do so, and the game will generate a random NPC to take their place. (There are cheats and mods to work around this, which you may use!)

Take advantage of the Rewards Store! Any and all rewards are allowed for this challenge, including the Money Tree.

Pets are allowed.

Optional: Turn off aging for unplayed households. This is mainly to ensure special NPC sims (namely the Sages and some of the werewolves as vampires are immortal) do not age up and pass away while you're working on other occult life states. Adjust your Neighborhood Story settings accordingly.

Set lifespan to normal for your own household.

Aliens and Mermaids are not included in this challenge as they lack gameplay/aspirations. However, you are welcome to add them into your story at any point if you see fit.

A before and after shot of the newest addition to the Sinclair household! As is tradition in Leon's old-money family, his son is given two first names: Cornelius Grey.

Rory brings Leon in for a big hug once the brawl is over. "That was pretty good! Welcome to The Wildfangs, Leon. We're happy to have you."

Leon arrives in Moonwood Mill in the early evening. He makes sure to follow the directions Rory gave him without any dangerous detours this time.

After a quick shower Leon checks his phone. Rory had sent him a text: "Call me as soon as you wake up." He does exactly that. She sounds genuinely relieved to hear his voice and invites him over to her place in Moonwood Mill for Harvestfest, promising to explain everything to him.

A few hours later, Leon comes to on his living room floor. Groggy and exhausted, he starts to recollect what happened as he looks at his newly destroyed living room furniture.

Still feeling poorly, Leon calls in sick to work and spends the majority of the day sleeping. The sun has already set, and the moon is rising high in a blood-red sky when he finally gets out of bed.

Augustus Leon ponders the newest collection to arrive at Casbah Gallery before taking to his office and writing a column on his favorite (and least favorite) pieces.
