[Spoilers] Strangerville - Just ruined Erwin Priors life (oops)!

I'm halfway through Strangerville and am loving it!  I may have accidentally ruined Erwin Priors' life, though.  Spoilers ahead: I wanted someone to come with me, whilst I poked around the hastily ...

@HolidayNowPlease, the friend @SheriGR spoke of is me!  Edwin was an important member of my posse!

Spoiler
He fought valiantly in the final battle in my game! ❤️

I think @SheriGR is correct in that his paranoid personality trait makes him vulnerable to fleeing.  He must have had the paranoid moodlet triggered in her game, but not in mine. However, most paranoid Sims prefer to being underground when the paranoid  moodlet comes up so it might depend if you get him down to the basement whether he sticks with the posse or not.😉  But he is not essential to you mission, so don't worry about being able to finish .😉  Also don't worry about his well being. He will be just fine! 🙂

Spoiler
Sims who are infected/possessed by the spores aren't really harmed .  They just have a condition they have to live with for a few hours each night, but they won't die from it and while they can pass the infection on to others under certain conditions, nobody is really harmed from it! 😇  In fact, you might find it a bit helpful to infect you Sim in order to solve the mystery, but that isn't required either. 🤨😃 I finished the mystery the first time un-infected, but was infected for the second time just to see the difference. :eahigh_file:

I hope you enjoy solving the mystery and saving Strangerville! 🥳

        Thank you.  Here's how it went down:

        Spoiler
        I had to go to and thro a little.  I didn't release I needed to make multiple experimental vaccines and multiple final vaccines.  If I'm honest, this got quite annoying. 

        I also made a secret club called Solis Radius Aliquis (meaning A Ray of Sunshine, in reference to the storms).  I used it to keep the group of allies together.  I'd put bugs on my allies and listened in  to make sure they were genuine.  Erwin seemed scared of the army and Annabeth recalled being expiremented on at the lab.  I sort of hoped Erwin would secretly by a villain, but he checked out.

        Erwin joined my final team, as did a scientist called Annabeth Bertand (randomly generated Sim, I guess).  I vaccinated another sim called Beckham, who refused to help me and is now my Sim's nemesis lol.  😃  I'll get my own back later.

        Another Sim did join my army but promptly ran away soon as we arrived.  On regrouping, the four of us quickly went downstairs and started the battle.

        It went really well to start with, until Annabeth was overcome by possessed sims and passed out.  I ordered another ally to revive her, but the third ally disappeared somewhere, leaving me one on one with the Mother plant.  There was a photo finish but I only just overpowered the Mother, as my Sim was about to die.  Happily, the day was saved!

        The group all went down to 8 Bells to celebrate.  And played table football.  Erwin seemed to stand on his own, so I tried to include him in festivities.  Beckham wasn't there, happily.  I'm now contemplating how to get my own  back.  Suggestions welcomed 👿
