Shark Shmark (Gold) *Requires The Sims 3 Island Paradise
Description: Beat 3 sharks in a fight
Complex. Sim specific. Two important notes: first, there are two kind of sharks, the small ones that can be fished (I’ve never seen or heard of a small shark attacking) and the large ones, and “Mermaids” are immune to sharks, they will not be attacked no matter what! Sharks are some not-so-powerful opponents, and the usual skills and traits are taken into consideration when fighting them (though the “Martial Arts” skill has a significantly reduce influence here). Sharks spawn randomly on designated spawners, though “Evil” “Mermaids” can summon them at will. If your sim is near a large shark, the odds of the shark attacking your sim is cumulatively affected by the amount of fish and meat in your sim inventory (poultry, patties, steak and all fish you will have just caught, fished or bought, I believe that tofu has no impact). The more you have, the greater the odds that the sharks will be attacking you. Another boost is if you click on the shark and “Watch Shark”. At some point, the shark will be attacking. There are four possible outcomes: Epic victory will result in your sim leaving with a “Fended off a Shark” positive moodlet and one or more very valuables shark teeth. Normal victory will result in your sim leaving with the positive moodlet. Defeat will result in a drastic loss of oxygen, and other needs, and the “Mauled by a Shark” moodlet. Epic defeat will result in your sim dying “Mauled by a shark”.

Something to Write About (Silver)
Description: Have your Epitaph Writer Sim get mauled by a bear
Career. Venue. Sim Specific. This one is tricky. The only way your sim can get mauled by a bear is by “Exploring the Catacombs” on the “Mausoleum”. Over the expansions, EA added more outcomes, and to make things worse, many of those new outcomes include being mauled by bears/zombie bears, yet only the original one triggers the achievement. Even worst, it looks like this specific outcome can only be attained by an “Adult”, so a “Teen” “Epitaph Writer” cannot fulfil this achievement until aging up.
