Mythology Pack Ideas

I could go for some Celtic Mythology. But if we had the greek gods my first vote is for Hades

Greek Mythology was always my favorite. Hercules, Xena, Aphrodite, Artamis, Apollo & all the myth creatures.

Werewolves originated in Greek Myth.

I liked going on adventures and collecting mythical magical artifacts. would make excellent museum pieces.

I'm for it, I would Love a Greek World, maybe Ancient Greece, and Rome, revived, Restored/Completed and reimagined.
tuscan Country side, I want to start a Vineyard so bad, don't really want to build it in Windenburg.

I would Go Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome, Egypt and Arabia
Gaul (France) England, Ireland and Scottland.
Those are the places and Cultures I'm interested in.

Greek Gods wouldn't make much sense in the sims world. Pass.

Actually werewolves where around longer than that the first known story was during the time of the Sumerian king Gilgamesh nearly 1000 yrs before the first Greek story about them.

But they go back even farther as there are vague references to them in some parts of Asia namely Siberia, Mongolia and China.

Not to mention werewolves or skinwalkers as they called them have been a part of Native American spirital beliefs for as far back as 6000 BC at the very least. As a cave drawing of them made by ancient Native Americans was found. And their belief in them probably goes back even farther.

I'd love to see a Faerie pack. Based on the folklore, where Fae were actually dangerous.

In the light of the new magic realm, there could be a Fae realm. You'd need to be careful not to eat the food or dance if you were a human.

The Fae Courts: Unseelie, Seelie and Solitary. Different types of Fae have different abilities and natures. You could go to them for favours, for a price. Which would rarely ever work out your way, but you could get lucky. And isn't that worth it?

Ability to trap imps and keep them as a sort of familiar.

Pseudonym names for Fae, as giving someone their real name allows that person to control them. There could be a way to find their real name underhandedly.
Also being able to bargain your own name (a terrible idea, don't do it) to say, bring back the dead, or become famous, with more chance of it going wrong.

Some humans would have the ability to see Fae and imps in the real world. And be more susceptible to Fae related 'incidents'.

Other general ideas I'll throw out:
Changelings, Glamours, Time moving slower in the Fae Realm, Faerie circles and toadstools, Fae powers, Silver good, Iron bad, make jewellery of either to protect yourself from or attract Fae.

I want to genuinely fear that if they enter the realm, my human sims may be unable to come back. And, I don't know how to politely put this but, enchanted human servants anyone?

Interesting, I would definitely play from a Native American Standpoint of werewolves too.

Hmm, Maybe it was meant to be... My werewolves that come From Europe are of Greek/Roman descendants. and they come to America where they meet a Native American family, I had intended for that family to be of supernatural origins. but the two families bonded and allied themselves together, so maybe The native American Family will be werewolves too.

Although the Irish Myth, is where I want to go with this too:

Isn't there a Sim named "Aine" somewhere in this the new ROM pack? She is of Irish Mythology and has most recently been associated with being the Queen of Fae, but I guess that depends on which of version of her myth you go with.

I would loooove a Mythology-themed pack!! They could add an Underworld where Ghosts roam, with the main world being Greek/Roman-inspired with perhaps a secret lot based off of Troy that requires a Sim with level 10 Handiness to construct a giant wooden horse to enter ?

Yes she is! In the ROM trailer. Strangely enough, my middle name is also Aine.
I had no idea it had roots in Fae mythology till you said so. Fascinating.
Wikipedia descriped her as: 'Reputedly the most powerful fairy in Ulster'

So I suppose I can say 'Most powerful fairy in Ulster' IS my middle name... reputedly.
