Partners in Crime

 

Willow seems to have a little problem getting her Coven members to cast spells, be mischievous and basically mean and evil to other non-coven members.

During The Sims 2 years, if your Sim had a good relationship with another and had enough "influence" points, you could get your Sim to influence another Sim to talk to someone for example.  You could also influence other Sims to clean or cook.  Unfortunately this feature is not available in The Sims 4 and I don't remember it ever being in The Sims 3 either.  This feature, had it been added to The Sims 4, would have benefitted Willow enormously in as much as she would have been able to influence her coven members to cast evil spells and do all the mean and nasty things that The Coven members should be doing but don't do themselves.  It seems therefore that Willow, even though she belongs to an evil group of witches, is on her own.

One thing that she does have however are potions.  Giving a potion to another Sim will allow that Sim to drink it - no questions asked it seems!  One such potion is the potion of "Masterful Insults".  Giving this potion to one of her coven members seemed to Willow to be a good idea so as to make that Sim insult others.  How wrong she was!  This potion just made her coven member angry.  Maybe Willow should have hung around a little longer to see what else this Sim would do but after having spent too much time at Pupperstone Park already, Willow was ready to do something else.

That evening, Willow decided to have a party.  Of course, this wasn't just any party, this was a Willow Mendip party.  Music, Pufferfish Nigiri, and fire.

She invited most of the Sims that she was enemies with and, not surprisingly, they all turned up.  Even the Grim Reaper made a show and Willows vampire friend, Caleb Vatore decided to pay a visit.  This is where things became a little more interesting.

After the Grim Reaper had reaped a couple of souls, Willow chatted with Caleb amongst the frozen Sims in her garden.  It came to pass that an option to "Become Partners in Crime" came up with Caleb.  Of course Willow chose this and they sealed the deal by shaking hands.  Now it seems, that Willow and Caleb can plan some mischeivous stuff to do together.

I wonder what an evil witch and a vampire will do to cause a little bit of mayhem in Glimmerbrook.  We will just have to wait and see...
