Realm of Magic Gameplay

You get a stone in your inventory that you can use to instantly go to the Magical Realm. It has a fairly long cool down timer but then later you can learn a spell that takes you there. :)

I love Bewitched! I say go for it!

oooh, i didn't know that! thanks!

I'm playing a family like that. The wife is a spellcaster and her goal is to discover the ressurection potion and live from ressurecting sims of families that require that (i play rotationally so i can have the other families 'ask' her to resurect the deceased and cheat the payment in and out).

While she tries to find that potion with the cauldron she has found other random potions. She uses those on her husband who is a scholar and really benefits from it. He's studying at uni and working.

She also takes care of her twin kids.
She has a locked basement where she has the cauldron and other witchy cluter hidden from visits.

Is spellcasting genetic for when they have kids? I only played with this pack shortly when the game first came out and didn't finish so I never really explored it.

I think there's a Magical Bloodline trait that children of spellcasters can receive at birth. I think it's 100% if both parents are spellcasters, and 50% if only 1 parent is. But I'm not sure about the percentage thing.

I've just recently started getting into RoM gameplay; I have a save where one partner in a couple is a spellcaster, and her wife is a vampire, so I'll have to make sure and concentrate on both of them for development because I want to upload them to the Gallery once I feel they're far enough along.

I started new family recently
my female sim is spellcaster and her husband is normal sim
they got twins so one of the twins is spellcaster and other is not
but both have "weak bloodline" trait from being spellcasters kid

you can pretty much just visit magic realm few times and do rest of magic things home but it will take much longer to not take advantage of sages

+you may need to take up some serious gardening and collecting for the ingredients

I didn't know about the "weak bloodline" -- that's kind of cool.

oh good to know about the gardening so I have room for that in the yard! What do spellcasters need to garden? (just wondering how much space I'll need for this)

Just to let you know, Spellcasters will keep rank and perks I believe, but lose potions and spells learned when placed from the library or gallery. It’s reported here
