Mata

Mata is a jaguar found in Felicity Island. The player's Sim will encounter her throughout the story and need to befriend her with catnip leaf. The Village Shaman mentions that her name means "The Eye" in the SimNatives' language, alluding to her ever-watchful role as the guardian of the path to the Forbidden Village. S/he is referred to with female pronouns in-game, but SimPE shows her/his gender as male.

Player tips

 * Sims should not anger Mata. If she is angry the native people of the island will not like the player's Sim either.
 * If the player's Sim becomes enemies with Mata, she will not save the Sim from the hyenas later in the story.
