Which occult life state should I try?

I couldn't decide between werewolf or witch so picked witch because I play with them more often than werewolves - but werewolves are great for a laugh. The one I would have chosen though is genies but that choice wasn't there.

Witches can do magical upgrades and they do better with a familiar such as a cat. In my Isla Paradiso Bunch videos I have a witch, Judy. The household has a cat. Judy gets a positive moodlet from the cat but, the cat hates her and will shred her feet without provocation when it gets the opportunity. This gives Judy a negative moodlet and me a laugh.

I think a witch would be a good start. They are the most ‘human’ of the supernaturals and would be a good introduction into the different supernatural states :)

They do so many useful spells around the house or on different objects and sims.

Although watch out for the autonomous spells they do as they skill up. Before I split up my saves between the supernaturals and the normal sims, I had them all combined together. A witch went crazy shooting out love spells left and right and I was stuck with kissing cousins in my save. :s :D

I couldn't decide between Witch or WW either, for exactly the same reasons as @Karritz - I play with Witches more, but WW's are really fun too.
I also watch out for the love charm ( can't remember its name exactly ) because one of my witches was always casting it on herself, and next had some undesirable and herself enter a romance, and it wasn't with who I had earmarked her for!

They're really useful, especially if you can be a petty and vindictive player like me :p You can cast all kind of curses and stuff
They spend less magic power during a full moon, and can replenish their magic with a ride on their broom in the broom arena. You get extra experience toward leveling your magic if you have a familiar ( pet ) and they can learn alchemy faster than other sims. I just LOVE alchemy and it is SO lucrative if you sell at the elixir consignment store.

Little toddler witches can make their toys disappear, and the look on their faces when they do it is so precious!

The do more but I can't think of it all off the top of my head now. I'm about to go off to bed as well.

They are all pretty great but I had to pick witch. With a witch, you don't have the transformation on the full moon, don't have to worry about wings, or dying from too much sun. Not that I use it often, but a highly skilled witch can resurrect the dead as a zombie, then with a sunlight charm, you can make them a normal Sim again. The hunger, bladder, and hygiene charms come in handy as well if you need to quickly fill one of those needs.

Werewolves are good for collecting gems, insects, and metals though but I believe dogs can do this just as good. Fairies aren't bad either, they have some powerful aura's that can help anyone nearby and the Sim themselves. Vampires are nice but the sun gets annoying.

Witches for overall amount of stuff they can do.Not to mention Josh doing broom riding tricks would be hilarious :D

Conversion ritual will keep you busy all day can turn the worst junk item into crazy rare stuff,the randomness is fun plus can conjure apples and use those
Shooting fire and ice at people
Magical upgrades even on the dresser (Which turns the dresser into a magic Narnia adventure portal to explore and find rare stuff)
haunt people with ghosts
Turn them into frogs
Best one IMO bring back the dead eitherhome lot graves and urns or cemetery awakens dead as zombies :o

I picked werewolf love the fact they can go hunting, eat raw meat, howl at the moon, play fetch, and the transformation is neat!

I think witches are fun and you can be both mean and nice as a witch. I use alchemy with my witches so they also have to have gardening skills which I know you enjoy doing. I like that you have to work at being a witch and the spells don't get learned all at one time. You can eventually get the reward to use hands for spells instead of the wands which is nice reward for witch who has mastered her craft.
Josh will be a beautiful warlock!
I came very close to clicking werewolf but, you can do that later as you decide to explore more things in the SN EP. Werewolf is the last occult I tried and of course I ended up loving them very much.

Not sure why I picked Werewolf (as I don't have Supernatural in my game and know very little about them), but it just seemed to be the right fit for Josh. I dunno why. :p

You're using him as the guinea pig right? :lol:

He looks like he'd make a good Werewolf!

You can make him rich quick by hunting. Witches are my favorite, but I love the animations for Werewolves.

Vampires are my personal favorite, Fairies are good if your doing gardening, and Witches are all around fun if you put in the effort to level up their magic. Witches are also the kind that can easily be used as just a regular sim, you don't have to do anything with their magic unless you want to, while vampires need a certain diet and you can't hide fairy wings(haven't played them in awhile). Never played werewolves, didn't like the ones I saw running around town, ugly.
