Diving into Sims 4, you’ve got a bunch of paths to take, but if you’re drawn to the magic and mystery, turning your Sim into a spellcaster is a wild ride. With the Realm of Magic game pack, you’re all set to jump into this adventure.
Starting Your Magical Journey: The Glimmer Brook Gateway
Kick things off by heading to Glimmer Brook. This place is your golden ticket. Look for the Glimmer Brook Watch lot; from there, things get interesting. Head northwest, and soon enough, you’ll come across this mystical portal archway. This is your gateway to some serious magic.
Entering the Enchanting World: The Magic Realm
Stepping through the portal, you land in a place where magic is the real deal. There’s this huge building up north; that’s where all the magic happens. This isn’t just any building; it’s where you need to be to kickstart your spellcasting career.
Meeting the Guardians of Magic: The Sages
The Magic Realm’s got these three heavy hitters who are all about different kinds of magic:
- Morgan Ember: This one’s all about Untamed Magic, where the wild forces of nature do their thing.
- Simeon Silver’s Water: He’s your go-to for Practical Magic, the kind that spices up the everyday.
- Elphaba: She’s into Mischief Magic, for when you want to stir up some trouble.
To get the magic rolling, go chat with these Sages. Tell them you’re “I was born ready,” and they’ll know you mean business.
Undertaking the Transformation Task
The Sages will give you a quest: find seven magical motes. They’ll even cast a spell to help you spot them, but you’ve only got eight Sim hours. Time to hustle and gather those motes.
The Transformation: From Sim to Spellcaster
Once you’ve got all seven, head back to any Sage. Hand them over, and watch the magic happen. Your Sim transforms into a full-fledged spellcaster, ready to dive into all things magical.
Alternative Pathways to Magic
If you’re looking for a shortcut, you can always use the Create-a-Sim to make a spellcaster right off the bat. But if you want to upgrade an existing Sim, start from the Glimmer Brook map marker. Follow the stream to the top right until you find the Magic Realm entrance. Inside, look for folks with mysterious symbols floating above them. They’ll clue you in on collecting 7 Magic Modes, these glowing purple plants. Get those, and your Sim steps up into the magical big leagues, spellbook and all, marked by a special aura around their plumb-bob.
