In view of the recent activity regarding werewolves, thought I'd do a sampler of what sorts of occults players want. Apologies if this was done long ago.

Since I started it, will go ahead. I honestly have no idea why all the fuss on werewolves. Not anti, just don't understand the attraction. On the other hand, have encountered the others in much of my reading and some gaming so think they would be a fun addition to the game. Think of how much livelier Granite Falls (or any world with forest) would be with these included.

I voted 1&2. They fit more with folklore than the third option and that suits my game best. I don’t really see a place for Mount Olympus in my world. I will say that elves seem to fit with Fey and option 2. Unless you mean high fantasy elves, but that’s not Classic mythology either. I actually might spring for a Tolkien inspired set of beings, though.

Werewolves + kitsuneDragons, Better plantsims,Fairies+ tbh all occult is welcomed if done well and if my computer would run the dang game :sweat_smile:

The more the merrier, let's have them all. I have always had an attraction to werewolves and vampires. With vampires it's always been about the romantic mystique that surrounds them, being courted, wooed, and swept off to eternity by the dashing count. Werewolves symbolize letting go of the confines of civilization and embracing primal urges and satisfying primal needs. Being an individual but also part of a collective that is bigger than the sum of its parts.Proper witches, not spellcasters, would be awesome too, and would dovetail nicely with fey folk for those who want occults that connect to nature. I would play the daylights out of a witch that was really connected to nature and the magical world around her. When I think of witches I think of someone totally in tune with Mother Nature, who knows how to use plants, earth's energy, connections to the animals to influence, to shape, and interact with the world for good, or evil, which ever path that witch chooses. I'm not as familiar with the other occults but why stop at witches, vampires, werewolves, and fairies. Better plantsims, aliens, ghosts, zombies, let's have them all.

I am happy with all of them being added to the game. But I picked the one that I desire most personally. I am most drawn to fea beings that are tied to nature. I want a GOOD plantsim soooo much. Dryads and wood sprites are my favorite thing ever. If we had a good plantsim, I could possibly pretend to have a dang dryad!! But any fairy will do.

What sort of occults would you like?

I'm in a toss-up as leprechauns would be fun as well, but who doesn't like elves?

I'm more referring to elves in Lord of the Rings. Excellent archers, a bit magical, and with an epic lifespan. Still, Clement Frost might need the help... Not that my elf wants to do it, it's too busy trying to scout hunting grounds and avoid vampires at night.

That's the sort of elf I have in mind as well. Plus, excellent craftsmen in wood, heavy into the arts - especially music and poetry.

Shapeshifters!

I've wanted to create Sims from a trilogy of books I love and tell their story for a long time, but I can't without Shapeshifters. I could use my imagination and some photoshop magic to make it happen, but I'd rather we had Sims capable of such a thing instead. Realistically, I know it'll never happen, too complicated I would imagine. But, a gal can dream, right? ;) Perhaps we'll get them in the new iteration in a few years? Stranger things have happened...

Happy Simming! <3

I will add that I like the idea of having khaijit (humanoid cats) and alfiq (intelligent talking cats) in the game but I don't know if they could get away with it since it belongs to Bethesda. I do enjoy the Elder Scrolls games.

We already have werewolves, so I chose 2&3. I love playing with elves. Fantasy is a very nice release from real world stuff.

fauns
satyrs
dryads
nyads
nymphs
minotaurs
leprechauns

I feel absolutely no connection to anything but werewolves in that list... I mean Greek mythology is Greek, Fairies and Pixies is Anglocentric (British Isles and therefore also the US). Werewolves... yeah they I can get behind. They exist in a LOT of cultures all over (well some sort of lycanthropy. I hope they make the same decisions as with vampires so you can tailor make what kind of lycanthrope you will be)
