Gypsy matchmaker

The Gypsy Matchmaker is an NPC that came with The Sims 2: Nightlife and The Sims 2: FreeTime. The Matchmaker can summon a blind date for you (your compatibility with your date depends on how much you pay the Matchmaker), or sell you a cures for Vampirism, Lycanthropy (Pets), Witchiness (Apartment Life), or PlantSim (Seasons). In The Sims 2: FreeTime, if the lifetime meter of everyone in the household is high, the Matchmaker will sneak over to the house during the night and leave a Genie lamp. The Matchmaker is an unplayable NPC (barring hacks), but can be befriended and fall in love with a controllable sim. However, the only socializing actions allowed with the Gypsy Matchmaker is under the Talk, Flirt and Influence menus (which is much more limited than the Influence menu of a non-NPC Sim). She will, if not greeted, will stay for hours at a time, until she is greeted.

Player stories

 * My Sim fell in love with and married the Matchmaker. At this point she became controllable, but no longer sold potions or set up dates.--24.209.90.129 22:40, 20 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I have a theory that gypsies are vampires, and they have potions that make them seem regular.


 * There is one matchmaker connected with pleasantview, I don't know her name, but she is unlucky. It's probably a bug, but when you ask her for a blind date, she crashes the date by flirting with your sim or the sim that your sim is going out with. Also, the "bug" causes a free-will action to cause your sim to flirt with her. Does anyone else have this problem?


 * I had this experimental family and the matchmaker was the only one on the lot at the time when they got married =P (And she wore a halter dress D=)
