Fanon:Anthony Nagel

Anthony Nagel (rhymes with "haggle", born November 9, 1996) is a Sim and the Author Avatar of the user Gourd Roger in The Sims series. He appears in both The Sims 3 and The Sims 4, with two separate incarnations for each game. His name is meant to be a pun on the real name of the author as he sarcastically represents Simmers who tend to try to look like themselves hence, a display of the Author Avatar trope.

For his Sims 3 incarnation, he lives in Appaloosa Plains with his two pet cats named Purble and Santana. He currently works in the Architecture career after having worked in the Business, Military and Music careers to achieve his lifetime wish. As of this date, he remains single.

For his Sims 4 incarnation, he lives in The Summer Home in Windenburg and works as the highest-ranking Scientist in the Scientist Neighborhood. He is also engaged to Raphaela Bellante, a shop owner and a Secret Agent from Oasis Springs. A few days before their intended wedding, Raphaela decided to live together with Anthony in The Summer Home. With the introduction of The Sims 4: Cats & Dogs, he adopted a pet dog named LB.

The Sims 4
Anthony in The Sims 4 has the traits of Geek, Genius and Loner. He also has a hidden Playful side when testing his inventions to his workmates and to his neighbors. When he has an Awkward Conversation with one of his colleagues, he either activates the Knockout command on the Satellite Dish or use the mind control function of his SimRay. In fact, he owns six pieces of each invention.

He is also not that good at romancing other people as seen with his ex-girlfriend Sabrina and on his disastrous first date with Raphaela. However, that did not stop him from getting a good love life as he managed to make the latter his girlfriend and became engaged after a few Sim weeks (around 3 years in real-life estimation).

Appearance
Anthony is intended to look like his creator. He is a mestizo, or a person having both Asian and European features, of average height. He has black hair, light skin and dark brown eyes which is similar to most Asians to date. He is also slightly fat although his body is still generally fit but only roughly 50% muscle. His hair is generally medium length throughout the series. However unlike the author, he is also of German ancestry.

He is perceived to look "teeny" and youthful despite being a young adult. His voice's pitch is also slightly higher than the average due to his small stature compared to most other Sims, although he showed signs of voice deepening later in the game as his body matures further. For both incarnations of the character, he is always seen wearing glasses. In The Sims 3, he wore glasses for his Everyday and Formalwear. In The Sims 4, he also wears glasses for his Party outfit and in his uniform for the current level of his Science career.

He is meticulous when it comes to picking his Everyday and Party clothes. This make him quite recognizable in social situations and in some occasions, it makes him Tense due to his Loner trait.

School years
Anthony's story in The Sims 3 started as a Teen and immediately attended High School in Crestview School and Stadium, Appaloosa Plains. He also had a part-time job as a Bookstore Clerk. Despite combining school and clerical work, he managed to finish it with A's. After aging up to a young adult, he entered Sims University as a young adult. He chose the Technology major.

He lived alone during his stay in university but that did not stop him from getting a decent social life. His closest friends were Shasha Parks, Tiberius Willard, Kevin Beare, Esther Atkins and Nathan Gorski. He also did not apply for any part-time jobs. After graduating, he returned to his home world in Appaloosa Plains to work in various careers.

Life after graduation
After graduating from University, he started working in various fields to pursue his lifetime wish of being the Jack of All Trades. He first entered in the Military career until he reached level 5, and also in the Business and Music careers. He then realized that he's one step away from finishing the Jack of All Trades wish so he entered the career he really wanted: the Architecture career. Highly motivated to get to the top of his favorite profession, he immediately reached level 4 of the Architecture career in a span of only over one week. He is now currently working as an Aesthetic Architect and is just one task away from the Sultan of Style level.
