The Sims 2 Witches

I just recently got the Apartment Life expansion for the Sims 2 after reinstalling it when Sims 3 failed to impress me! I didn't know I had been missing out on Sims 2 equivalent of Makin' Magic, which was my favorite expansion for the original Sims!

It appears that the only way to become a witch in Apartment Life is to meet the head witch or warlock, become good friends, and ask them to make you one. The only challenging part of this is actually meeting the witch, because it's just random that they will show up on a community lot. The way it worked for me was to make my Sim's turn ons witch and robot. There were no robot people made yet in my neighborhood, so when I called the matchmaking service and asked for a blind date (which cost me 4,ooo simoleans) she made the head witch appear! Then it was easy.

Once your Sim is a witch, you can chose to be Good, Neutral or Evil. Depending on your alignment, you can learn spells by studying your spell book. Also, if you are full Evil or full Good, you can make an awesome thrown, which restores all your needs when you sit in it! Other craftable items include wall scones, a ceiling lamp and floor lamps, which can make your house look very spooky (if you're evil) or very pretty (if you're good).




As a witch you can learn to make all the important potions:
-ReNuYu Porta-chug
-Witchbegone-E
-Plantophic-C
-Vamprocillin-D
-Lycanthropic-B
-Love Potion #8.5
-Magically Spiced Sugar - increases Niceness (may only be available to Good Witches)
This will save you from having to call up the matchmaking gypsy every time you need one!

The following is a list of all the regents you can create, which are needed to cast the spells you can learn:
-Dragon's Scales (DS)
-Magic Dust (MD)
-Essence of Light (EoL) Used for Good Spells
-Crystallized Moonbeam (CM)
-Eye of Newt (EoN)
-Viper's Essence (VE) Used for Evil Spells

Now the important part, the spells are all named funny, and when you want to cast them it can be hard to remember exactly what each of them do! I wrote these all down to have as a quick reference when I want to cast something, instead of having to go all the way back to my spell book each time and "check abilities".

Happy Siming!
