Sims Lore
Recently I've been fascinated by any kind of lore in the Sims 4. Though it doesn't always make it into gameplay, I have noticed so much with descriptions of sims/families, BB items, and little Easter ...

I love sims 4 lore! A few of my favorites are:
1. Princess Cordelia
2. The Von Haunt Estate Ghosts
3. The disappearance of Jacques Villarreal's wife
@permanentrose I found the Cordelia lore a few days after I got the game, and it's still one of my favorite things! Also, I like the story you came up with for the Villarreal family too! I wouldn't have thought of doing that!
@Lenny_Ogg I too have given an explanation for Jeb's bag in my own story. I'm glad Maxis gives us interesting characters like him to play with.
I think it's so much fun to try and "solve the mystery" of what happened. Like with the Von Haunt ghosts, or Jacques and his wife, or Jeb, or Cordelia.
More in the spoiler so I don't spoil the lore for anyone.

One thing that I think is interesting is that the Thebe/Laurent family in Tartosa are apparently the descendants of Princess Cordelia. Both Arnessa Thebe and Greta Laurent have purple eyes, the same as the Princess Cordelia available on the gallery. If you look at Arnessa and Cordelia, they actually look a lot alike. One interesting thing I saw in a video I watched was that in the item description for the plates with the parrots on them, it says Cordelia had one for each pirate boyfriend.
According to the lore, she had three boyfriends. If that's the case, why are there four plates? Who is the fourth, and is he the one from whom Arnessa Thebe is descended from?
I've actually considered playing (and possibly posting) a story that explains what happened to Cordelia. There's just so much to do with her. She also helped design Britechester University. I've yet to play much in Henford on Bagley, but I've heard there's a lot of lore with her there as well. More than just her cottage and the waterfall.
As for Jacques, I know the theory most people have, with him being a criminal, but I actually have a different theory (and it's a crazy one) of what happened. If I say any more, it'll spoil it should I ever decide to write about it.
I've actually brought the Von Haunt ghosts back to life using a spellcaster sim. I used a mod that let them live in their estate. Unfortunately, the tourists still walked through the gardens, so they had to move lol.
