Decisions. Decisions

Both in reverse order respectively.

There's a recent poll showing other people's preferences on this.

Are you guys going to create a Spellcaster in CAS or create a civilian sim and let them become a spellcaster in-game?

I'm leaning toward the latter. you?

The latter, for sure. I always try to "unlock" the life states rather than creating them in CAS. At least the first time trying them anyway. I think I just want the whole experience.

I'm going to have my human Sim who was raised by vampires become a spellcaster.

My Miss Peregrine sim is going to make the journey to magic.

I am playing her as a writer of children's books and she runs an orphanage of unusual children.
So the book, Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children, is a work of fiction inspired by her life.

This gives me the freedom to not be exact to the book and movie.
I can have her be a witch. I mainly want her to be involved with alchemy, practical magic, and have a bird familiar.

I'm using cheats, I had already created my spell casters years ago. And I had them build all their mundane skills, and acquired traits, I can't start over now. but they were suppose to be born with magic.

But i'm going to make sure it's done in a magical way. I'm Going to take two of my Sorcerers Kaegan and Daerick to the old ruins of the Cathedral where magic was born. There their powers will be cheated in.

Vivian, Kaegan's Future wife, I'm going to take her to Sylvan Glade and restore her Powers there.

I'll have a lot of other chances to "Experience" the game play of unlocking and learning new stuff. But Kaegan, Daerick, Vivian, are essentially Suppose to be my most Powerful Mages, who will teach my future spell casters. So I have to rightfully grant them their powers through cheats. up until a certain point because their stories... some parts of their stories aren't playable but at the part where I'm having it begin they have already learned so much about their powers.
Still just beginning and they themselves still have a lot more to learn.

I'll probably create one in CAS the first time.

Definitely going to play unlocking it first. I have a plan for one of the kids of my gen 2 heir and his mermaid wife (whichever human child is born first) will feel jealous of his moms/siblings occult powers and seek out alternative ways of becoming something supernatural. They'll consider vampirism - but they love grilled cheese far too much to give it up for eternity :D

Both. I have one Sim who's going to go poking at the portal (and might just end up moving his entire family to Glimmerbrook, for reasons). But I'm sure I'll also go and create a Spellcaster in CAS, just to see how different it is that way.

I have a sim I've been waiting to be a spellcaster for literal years, so she will in-game. I'll also make CAS options to try it out. :)
