I have mccc and that's it.

Has anything like this happened to any of you or something similar?

What icon does he have for his needs tab when his needs are full? If it's the normal one, then he'll have to go to the magic realm and go through the rite of ascension (there's a roughly 50/50 chance of being a spellcaster if only one parent is a spellcaster, but all children get the appropriate bloodline trait depending on how strong the bloodline of their spellcaster parent is.) If it's a spellbook, then it looks like there's a glitch.

I sometimes have a similar issue. There's no icon above the traits in CAS but they do sometimes make the spellcaster animation in CAS. (I don't play occults but some of my townies are spellcasters and when they have half spellcaster children, this usually happens)

Maybe not the same, but very similar.

Unplayed household, MCCC got together two mermaids. I've never played mermaids but I know these two to both be mermaids from Let's play etc... one is Nalani that mermaid from the trailer.

Also due to MCCC Nalani and her husband had 4 kids.. I assumed they would be merchildren and was watching the family, though still never playing them, thinking that maybe they'd be fun to have my first experience with mermaids.

But all 4 of the children are aliens instead of mermaids?!?! How does that happen? In my manage households they are all in their alien forms...

https://sims.fandom.com/wiki/Ukupanipo_Hekekia This guy, this is the husband and the mermaid Nalani from the trailer is the wife...

How did these two have all alien children? *confused* I've never played them... are they half alien too? That'd be really weird for people who have IL and not GTW

Any chance the husband could have been alien abducted multiple times with pregnancy? That'd be my only guess. Unless you have that turned off on mccc.

He had the normal sim icon, I just thought it was weird that he had the weak bloodline trait given he was a normal sim, I had his dad learn the spell for ascension and to make his son a witch via said spell.

I have it turned off. (Pregnancy off and abductions set to very rare) Also would an alien abuction even happen on a family over and over if I don't have any scientists in this save and have never played that family? Maybe if MCCC setting isn't working right I suppose but that seems odd too lol

I believe they did that so you can make sims with strong bloodlines via their grandparents. Each generation of active spellcasters is more powerful than the last (none, weak, strong, ancient) but if, for some reason, your sim doesn't activate as a spellcaster, their next generation is born one step weaker. So your hybrid's kid, now that they're active, will have a strong bloodline even if they're not naturally a spellcaster. If said kid doesn't become a spellcaster, their child will be back to weak bloodline.

That sounds weird :''D Haven't had this problem in my game. I instead have the problem that whenever mermaid sims have babies with other sims, the kids are always mermaids... The random mermaid sims around my town also spawn without tails in their mermaid forms (slightly disturbing to watch only the top part of the sim swimming in the pool...) and sometimes they don't have faces at all which is also very creepy :'D

That sounds nightmareish.. how do you sleep at night? xD

There's a bug i came up with while trying to obtain "super-sim" (every life form + sulani power, ffw and ancient bloodline). Any bloodline level blocks ability to become alien, even using cheat to obtain occult form. My half-alien sims were not able to breed full-alien baby with this trait, and abducted spellcaster (son of Gemma Charm, btw) has given birth to regular sim.
