Don Lothario

Don Lothario is one of the pre-created Sims featured in The Sims 2 and the second neighborhood of The Sims 3.

For theories on his involvement of Bella Goth's abduction, see Bella Goth/theories.

Don Lothario is one of the pre-created Sims featured in The Sims 2. He resides in Pleasantview, one of the neighborhoods that ships with the game. He wears blue jeans, a purple striped top, and has a black pompadour. He likes to dance a lot, and likes to play on his computer. According to the neighborhood back-story, Don's the local womanizer, holding down relationships with four women at once. His lovers are the Caliente sisters, Nina and Dina, the maid Kaylynn, and Cassandra Goth, to whom he is engaged at the game's start. Don is also involved in the plot surrounding Cassandra's mother, Bella. The back-story tells players that Bella was mysteriously abducted and never returned home. However, apparently she was last seen at Don's home. It is said that Bella went to Don's house to welcome him to Pleasantview, but was never seen again.

Don is the only child of Adriana Lothario and Nicolo Lothario. When you first play the Goths, Don and Cassandra will be in the backyard, which will be set for a wedding. You can try to get them married right away, but Don will usually leave her at the altar.

When Don is first played in The Sims 2, he is 28 days away from becoming an elder and is an Intern in the Medical career track. He has 2 points of Logic skill, 3 points of Mechanical skill, and 4 points of Cleaning skill, which are the skills required for his job.

The Sims 3
Don appears in Riverview. The family bio reads "Don woke up one morning in a whole new world. He remembers stepping onto a teleporter, several women laughing, then nothing else until he found himself here..." "Here" refers to an old granary, abandoned for years and waiting for nature to demolish it, that is, until Don showed up. Don's bio reads "Don Lothario was facing a big choice between marriage and continuing to be a man about town. Will his "accidental" teleportation to a new town change his old ways?"

There is no sure way of knowing how he was teleported into the sleepy town of Riverview, but afterward, Don seems to have either simply moved into the old granary or bought it somehow. (He possibly worked for some time.) Don's story in The Sims 3 seems to have started a few days after Don was teleported to Riverview since the old granary was (poorly) furnished and Don owns a car.

It is hardly believable that Don is in TS3 as he is an adult in Riverview while Mormiter and Bella are children. He shouldn't be born as he is an adut in this game and and a adult in The Sims 2 and there is about a 40 something year difference between the two games.
