Not sure which yet, but something in Zero's mods broke the vendor in caster's alley that sells spells and familiars.
Trying to narrow down which mod exactly between the 22 I grabbed... but it may have even managed to completely corrupt my save.
Even after removing all the mods, still get the exception:
Exception in Unknown timeline: Exception running Element (AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'id')

Thank goodness for the 'recover save' feature. Had a save in there from an hour ago, before my new sim had gone to the spot - that worked on the vendor with all the mods removed. Now I'll add them each back until I get that error again...
One possible theory: new sim with no charisma skill, goes and tries 'haggle' as her first action and gets turned down, then tries buy and gets a script crash.
So if I end up with all the mods working... it will mean situational as this time I tried buy right away and not haggle.
All mods back in - vendor was still fine.
Gave myself a bloodline trait and learned spells from the 3 sages, vendor script crashes.
Removed all the 'Zero' mods. Went to good save before the mods - gave myself bloodline trait, sage trained 3 spells, went to vendor, no crash.
So some Zero mod does not like you either having a bloodline or already knowing any spells when you talk to the vendor...
Got a save from after having a bloodline and 3 spells and good vendor... adding zero mods back until it breaks...
...
2 hours in and I'm lost. Still get the error if I save and use what looked like a good save. It seems the vendor just doesn't like any sim with a bloodline trait.
Really need to get Zero's mods to work... wasted 30 of those minutes trying to get the vendor to re-appear by basically using nasty spells to chase away any sim that landed in caster's alley because that one vendor prefers socializing over staying in the stall... And fixing that is one of the mods I need...
