Preparing for RoM ?

Nothing as yet. I'll wait until I get the pack before making a decision about my first spellcaster and where they live. They will definitely live in a new save though.

I really can't do anything to prepare other than scour CC sites for some items I don't think are available yet (and they might be in RoM, or one of them, anyway.) because the particular media based mage I'm trying to recreate (the *other* wizard named Harry with a series of books, only this one most definitely not YA.) I want to make as a full fledged mage, not use him to go through the process of becoming one.

I wonder if Hockey Stick is a valid kind of broom...

Anything else, I'd have to see what magic can do first.

I'm doing a war storyline, where Brindleton is going to be invaded by wizards. I already started building witch-related buildings in preparation, since I imagine they'll want to integrate into the neighborhood well.

I have the Broomstick Club, which is an old Victorian-style restaurant that has a secret room for witch meetings. There's a little retail shop that will sell potions and potion accessories. I might also build a little kennel with all the best-looking cats and dogs, so witches can pick out their familiars or just find new family members.

Aaand last but not least, I'm trying to convert 1 lot into the school, and five for each house. The House of Fire will have students that study Untamed, Wind will have Mischief, Water will have Alchemy, Earth will have Practical, and Void will teach the non-witch occults. They're all going to have Voidcritters as mascots, and luckily I have the decal stickers to decorate the lots.

Ive prepped a bit! Ive made the bases for a couple witch/spellcaster sims. I cleaned out my CC and am on the hunt for some spooky/witch aesthetic cc. I use to not download much of it cause having it in my game before just made me sad that there were no witches haha.

I thought about making a couple lots but honestly with all the amazing new build/buy stuff from the trailer it just sort of seems like a waste because any lot I make now would probably get completely overhauled.

@Gordy you have any plans of sharing the Broomstick Club? sounds cute!!!

A bit, yeah.

I've created a female and male witch and I will use them to test the pack when it comes out.
Names and traits are still undecided for them.

I might dabble in building a house that I feel is fitting to be redecorated for a magic-using family, but other than that, I plan on making some of my already existing Sims in my current saves into Spellcasters and then add the necessary details.

The only other prep for me is bouncing with anticipation :D

The outfit he's wearing. Is that CC or somewhere in full body I haven't looked yet? (or in a pack I don't have yet, of which there are still several)

Because that's about exactly what I'm looking for to make Harry Dresden

I've recreated my sims 3 twins in my signature and they will get a makeover once I get Realm of Magic!

Yes, it's a CC. It's made by Joliebean and can be found from her Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/posts/28601092

My first spellcaster sim is in Selvadorada learning archeology and exploring the temple as a backstory to discovering magic.
