About the story!

Hello!

First my grammar can be strange. Please understand.

I really like the vampire pack. I'll play a game and ask you about the game world view you created.

First. Why is Batoré's brother's name a Wolfsbane manor?
         These are vampires, why do you live in a house with many aconitum?

(Aconitum this name is the Greek word "ἀκόνιτον" (akoniton) which means "without soil." Plant poisons are also used to kill wolves, sometimes called "wolf's bane." Also, Queen of poisen, aconite, wizards' monkshood, leopard's bane, women's bane, devil's helmet, blue rocket Also called a rocket.)

Second. What is the identity of the red vampire in the trailer? Do you want to tell me information or forever?

              Is this red vampire the forgotten woman, the immortal queen?

Third. Why is there a wolf statue in Vladislavus's house?

Fourth. Who is the red queen and another black man? Why is the biggest picture on the house of Vladius?

            I'm really curious.

Fifth. What does the Fairy Gargoyle in the Vampire Pack mean?

         Item description is not unusual. "Fairies do not help others without a price. Be careful. You may be expecting something." It says in the description. Doesn't it mean anything?

If you can tell me I want to hear the answer! I'm curious!

    @led_zon96, you bring up many good questions! :eahigh_file: I always love a good backstory about our Sims characters! 🥳 Old Sims families like the Goths and the Landgraabs will always have a special place in my heart because of their history throughout all of the versions of the Sims games. ❤️

    But most of us helping here don't work for EA. There are some EA employees who read these posts and sometimes answer, but it is usually about topics that relate more to customer service or similar issues.  None of the EA employees here are developers or artists that would have made the decisions in the game that you are talking about. ☹️  They work in a completely different department. 

    I don't know the best way to ask them these questions. 🤔 You could ask some of the questions on Twitter if you follow any of the Sims Gurus.  Or sometimes there have been Guru Garage Livestreams for The Sims 4 on Twitch .  I think those usually have a way to ask the developers some questions. But you have a lot of questions, and there are other people who have their own questions, so they would have to spread any time spent answering questions among all of the people who are asking them. 😇 

    As for the artwork, I think those were just representation of Vampire and Werewolf lore that an artist thought would add a spooky mood to the gameplay! 😉 I think that might also be why there is Wolfsbane in the Vampires pack (even though we have no Werewolves in the game). It is my understanding that Vampire/Werewolf lore has Vampires and Werewolves as enemies.  Therefore, If your Sim is a Vampire, it would make sense to keep a plant that is "the bane of wolves" around, in case any Werewolves should wander into Forgotten Hollow!  It might seem odd to players since there are no Werewolves in TS4 yet, (and we don't know if there will ever be any or not), but I think things like wolfsbane were added to acknowledge this Vampire/Werewolf lore that many people know about. It adds to the creepy atmosphere! 🤨😉
