@Nakuruclaud&nbsp;&nbsp;@Piney_Cones&nbsp; Did you have Neighborhood Stories set to allow NPCs to move out/in? Have you checked to see if they’re on a different lot now, even if they haven’t died?

@Nakuruclaud I think this is what happened to the hermit in granite falls in my game.. I just don't remember who the guy was to verify my suspicion. Now the hermit is an erratic lady. I don't have aging on, but since when can that dude die?

crinrict · Answer

Sims in roles loose their roles if moved in (or possible if they move somewhere else in case of the pub owner).

In case of the hermit this is a bit strange as they are a hidden household and shouldn't be affected by the NS, I do think there's both a female and a male version tough. Did you have a guy first in that save game or in a different one ?
