Grim Reaper



When someone dies, the Grim Reaper will appear to take them away. This concept was first introduced in The Sims: Livin' Large.

If no one is around when the Reaper comes to call Death stays on the lot for a little while, uses the toilet and watches television. If the Sim that died is the last Sim on the lot an amusing dialogue will appear.

The Grim Reaper is also thought to be the father of Nervous Subject in Strangetown.

Plead with Death
If another family member wants to, they can plead with Death to spare the Sim's life. There is no way to save someone who has drowned, so be warned.

The Sims
If Death is in a bad mood, he will take the corpse anyway; if Death is in a good mood, he will play rock, paper, scissors with that Sim, or put a dice under three cups mix them up. The Sim will have to try to pick which holds the dice. If the Sim wins/picks right cup, the deceased is brought back to life for a second chance, but if the Sim loses/picks wrong cup, Death will either take the corpse or, be nice and, create a zombie. So is you want too.....BRING YOUR SIM BACK

The Sims 2
A Sim with a good relationship with the deceased has the chance to plead for their life. Death will hold his hands behind his back, hiding the sims life in one fist, and the Sim must choose left or right. If the Sim chooses incorrectly, the person will die. However, if they choose the correct one, the other Sim will come back to life with some of their Motives actually up. The higher reationship they have with that sim, the more chance they will win.

Resurrection
In first person mode on certain games, as the ghost, you can either pay the grim reaper §100, or, challenge him to a fiddle contest. Paying will automatically renew your Sim their life, while, the Fiddle contest can take time. The best way to ensure that your deceased Sim will win, is if you fill their wants and needs bar. When your Sim returns to life, all of their needs will be half-way full. Your Sim will not look any different, or act any differently than they did before they 'died'.

On The Sims 2 for PC, the Resurrect-O-Nomitron from the Paranormal career track can bring back the dead, by phoning the Grim Reaper and paying him. You must have the University Expansion Pack installed to get the Resurrect-O-Nomitron. If you pay under ~$996~ then your sim wont come back, Grim will just take your money.~$996-$1408~ makes them a zombie and above~$1408~ brings them back as a human.

Zombies
In The Sims, sometimes the Grim Reaper will be nice and turn the deceased into a zombie. A zombie has a bluish hue, walks funny and has no personality points,Zombie's need also low faster than a normal sims and his move are slower than normal sims. Using the Resurrect-O-Nomitron on The Sims 2 for PC, and paying between §998 and §4,127 can create a disturbed zombie.The zombie has a blueish skintone, distorted facial features and a set personality. In Apartement life, the evil witch can resurrect sims as a Zombie.

Sim/Grim Reaper Hybrids
Sim/Grim Reaper hybrids are very rare, but possible. To get a hybrid, one must somehow get the Grim Reaper to remain on the lot after a death, then have a WooHoo with him when he relaxes on a bed. However, because an actual "relationship" with the Grim Reaper is next-to-impossible, the event is incredibly unlikely to occur. Nervous Subject from Strangetown is further proof that these hybrids exist. Hybrids have very erratic personality points, such as Nervous having no points but a full bar of being active. They have droopy eyes and sallow skin.
