It’s been a while.

Re-downloaded the Sims 4 because I’m feeling pretty nostalgic and homesick for my pixelated witch-vampire family. It’s time I’ve made some changes.

Re-downloaded the Sims 4 and I’m starting from scratch with Raena and Riku. At first, I wanted to give them different names and backstories, but after a while I just stuck with what I was most comfortable with. I’m still doing some work on their noses, but so far, they look great~!

I decided to go back to CAS and update Raena’s appearance, and after hours of going through sliders and presets, I finally managed to tweak her appearance successfully.

explain how your two sims met please??

Okay... This is gonna' be a lot to unpack...

Okay, so a nasty family dispute nearly fractured Riku's entire coven and strained his relationship with his mother ( the head of the family ). She banished him with nothing but the clothes on his back and forbade him from returning until she decided he was welcomed back.

A stranger in a strange land, Riku quickly realized that he had no connections here in America and would need the protection of a powerful witch who would provide him with Guest Right/Sanctuary.

It was only through rumors and tips did he manage to track her down and convince her to offer him shelter until his mother summoned him back to Japan. At best, their arrangement was tense, and at worst, it was downright antagonistic. Riku's constant need for fresh blood and the callous way he treated her grated Raena's nerves, whereas Raena's withdrawn personality and lack of respect for his status as a high-ranking vampire infuriated Riku.

After a while, they managed to get along and become friends, but their friendship quickly spiraled into a passionate love affair. Riku would have stayed with her if his mother hadn't summoned him back home... But he was not to deny the head of the household, so he wrote a letter of goodbye to Raena.

On the same day he left, Raena found out that she was pregnant with his child. She tried contacting him, but it was all for naught, and she was left to deal with her pregnancy alone, detailing each moment in hopes that Riku would come back to her again.

Nine months later, Kira was born, and with her birth came new responsibilities for the hedge witch. She raised her daughter alone in her cottage and tried to move on from Riku by striking up a relationship with a fellow witch, Tomax Collette, but their short-term romance ended when she fell pregnant with his child. However, Riku would eventually come back, unable to take being apart from Raena, and came home to a little girl with his eyes and Raena holding an infant.

So, there you have it! The whole story! There was a lot of screaming and crying from Raena and a million apologies from Riku, but it was the children who healed the resentment Raena felt towards him for leaving, and she hesitantly agreed to give him a chance. They married, Riku cured himself of vampirism to age alongside Raena, and the rest is history.

I really love my middle-aged occult sims
