the hermit in Granite Falls

My sims were vacationing in Granite Falls, got caught in a thunder storm, and sought shelter in the hermit's cabin. Just wanted to share a few pictures of the hermit in my current save. Until now, the hermits I've come across were elderly and always looked a bit sad. This one is such a character, buff, and has his own, unique style. I found this one amusing as he slipped and fell four times walking across the same mud puddle, got so dirty that he had to take a shower. When I saw what he was wearing after he showered, it just made me chuckle. I tried to get my sims to become friends with him but he was so preoccupied with other stuff that they barely got to talk and then the vacation ended. I think I will have to visit again and see what he's up to. Oh, and his name is Izaiah Curry :)

  • If you make friends with him, you won't have to go out to his place, he'll come to visit you. Every time my sim made friends with the hermit, it always happened that way.
  • Haha, thanks for sharing this cool character! :smiley:

    I once had a Sim get pregnant with a hermit's baby when she was on vacation in Granite Falls. Their son is called Fox and he's always had a bit of his father's wildness to him. :smiley: When he was a kid he didn't ever meet his father the hermit, but then his half-sister hired the hermit to work at her restaurant as a host. I always like to think he took the job so that he could try to get to know his son better, even though he was an old man by then.
  • I need to visit the Hermit more often... such a beautiful hidden away area. I love the secret places in the game. The Hermit's baby, now thats a campfire story :wink: How did you manage to hire him at your restaurant? I've deleted the random "not in world" sims several times and can never get the unplayed sims I've downloaded from the gallery which I've left in the Not In World section.
  • I think I've seen previous hermits out in the parks dumping potions on plants, but I've never seen one take on a career before. That's interesting, I will keep an eye out for Izaiah and see if he does anything. I've befriended hermits before as part of the herbalist aspiration, but I've never thought to go beyond that.
