Chillio

 

Willow seems to have a fascination with fire.  You could say that it was her forte.

After setting alight items in Willow Creek park, the Romance Festival and burning to death one of her party guests in her own back yard, our evil witch decided to visit the home of one of her neighbours.

After being invited in and of course a "friendly introduction", she decided to set the poor unsuspecting Sim's bed on fire.  Of course this is not a normal thing to do but we are talking about an evil witch.  Willow Mendip, to be precise.

As I stated in a previous post, EA/Maxis seem to have changed things a little since The Sims 3.  Unable to cast any more "inferniate" spells because everything "clicked on" brings up a red notice stating that "this cannot be done because there is a fire on the lot", Willow runs out of the house waving her arms in the air, followed by the poor neighbour.  There's nothing else she can do but to call the fire brigade.  In The Sims 3, she would have been able to light fires in every room of the house, causing more havoc than she can in this incarnation.

The firemen/women take their time, seemingly more interested in playing with clay than putting out the blaze.  However, they manage it after a fashion and everything is back to "normal".  Apart from, of course, the poor neighbours blackened bed.

Willow takes her leave and decides to go homeward bound to practice some more magic.  What else can she learn?

Chillio.  That was what she learned - chillio.  It seems to go from one extreme to the other.  Instead of burning Sims to death, she can now freeze them to death.

Armed with knowledge of a new spell, she travels to Mount Komorebi.  Needless to say, she chose this location because of the snow...

After introducing herself to a Sim on the lot, again in a friendly manner, she invited the Sim outside to help build a Snow Pal.  The Sim was of course happy to oblige and followed Willow outside into the freezing cold.  Once the Snow Pal was finished and having lulled the poor Sim into a false sense of security, Willow "chillioed" her.  To put it more plainly, she froze her into a Simlish iceberg.

Other Sims started to appear on the lot and Willow chillioed a couple of them too.

Unfortunately, this practice of freezing Sims is not lethal, for now anyway.  Things may get better as time wears on.  We can only wait and see.
