Only Sims who drink the "Immortality" potion from RoM should have that trait. I don't think I've seen any NPC's with the trait, so seems like that's a bug.I did check to see if it still only fluoresced occasionally. Seems to.Start 1:23 PMDone 1:49 PMDidn't fluoresce again until 9:35 PM

@JHardeman2 Are you seeing this persistently or intermittently?

@JHardeman2 Is THAT what that is? I see that on sims all the time. Never knew what it was. I even asked here and noone knew what it was. It's definitely bugged because I've seen it on sims that never had that trait(?)

I have several Sims with the "Immortal" trait. The infinity thing usually only pulses on occasionally. I think there's a quiet sound effect that accompanies it.I'll have to check my regular game to see if that's changed.Shouldn't show up on random Sim. It's from an Alchemy potion.

@DizzyDee-K It definitely does show up randomly. Had it first show up on an NPC in University so I originally thought it had something to do with Uni. I don't think I've ever seen it on any of my own sims, it's always been NPCs.

On PS4, the aura comes and goes but is never constant. I had a sim drink the immortality potion and the halo appeared, then faded. It now appears every now and then, which I believe is by design.

One of my Sims has Immortality as well and the animation goes away but comes back randomly.
