Spellcaster Question

So, once your Sim becomes a spellcaster and is not in the RoM are they discoverable as one by other Sims in other worlds? Similar to how Sims can be asked if they are mermaids or Aliens can be discovered or walk around without their disguise?
  • I've had non-magic sims react in surprise when my sim used magic outside of the world, and if it was harmful (a celebrity was being obnoxious so I deleriated her) I got negative social and reputation points for it. But it seems to be closer to Vampires, in that as long as you're good, no one really cares.
  • Spellcasters won't spontaneously use magic outside of the Realm. The only two exceptions are: your own played Sim will Teleportalate if you have that option turned on and Sims will do magic if they're in a club that has that as a rule.

    (I haven't been out socializing with my magic Sims yet so can't answer the reaction q, sorry)

    In the case where I deleriated a celeb, my spellcaster didn't care too much about the negative reactions, but interestingly, one of the other spellcasters there actually came over and (from what I can tell) gently repremanded my sim for her actions. There was no change in relationship or anything, but the bubbles were interesting.

    In the other case, it's generally been family members scruberooing each other, so more pride at doing a spell successfully than anything.

    Spellcasters won't use magic autonomously, but they will fly off on brooms in addition to teleportate.

    They also use brooms if you have it set up. I was pretty surprised when I sent my main home from a cafe and he just whipped out the broom in public and hopped on.

    Really?! For the life of me, I cannot get my spellcaster Sims who're in a club that specifically only has that one rule, to cast spells. They just stand around doing the idle chat or one of the actions that I've forbidden them to do. It's driving me nuts :rage:

  • I love the idea of spellcasters scolding each other. I am still laughing at some of the spell names @DaWaterRat
    Thanks @Sindocat. That's good to know.
