Re: What happens when your alien sim and vampire sim have children

My Alien male Vampire female couple had a normal human child. What's up with that?  My alien does have a human mother, but he has all the powers of his dad. All of his other siblings are listed as part alien in their log files from MCCC.

    @MiladyRevenwyn, the genetics and abilities for Alien/Vampire hybrids are tricky🤨 , often causing the offspring to be a bit glitchy because the bottom picture in the thumbnail in CAS for Aliens is the Alien Form, and for Vampires it is the non-Vampiric form; while for the top thumbnail in CAS for Aliens is the Alien Disguise and for Vampires it is the Dark Form.  You can see the glitch in these CAS pictures:

    Alien Form / Non-Vampiric form

    Alien Disguise/Vampiric Dark Form

    Skin color is Alien but the Vampire "smoke" shows up as well.  Oftentimes when leaving CAS, any changes you made don't' stick for either form. ☹️

    But with genetics in real life, not every trait will get passed down anyway.  My thought is that the game is replicating this in its own way.  However, Vampires are really specialized humans.  Aliens are not.  So it could be that your hybrid child received the underlying human form from its mother and the human part of its Half-Alien father, resulting in a Human Sim.   The siblings must have all had the inherited the Alien part  from their Alien/Human hybrid father, and only this one child received his Human part (at least so far... this might happen again if the couple have more children!).  Since the father has both Alien and Human genes, he can pass on either to his offspring. 🤨😉
