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.

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 The Sims, when there is a sim who has been turned into a zombie, you can't resurrect it, except if you have Unleashed, then you can go to Old Town to any lot that has a shop that sells candles, and find a woman wearing a yellow dress and a big fancy sunhat named Miss Lucille. Then ask for her to resurrect the zombie (for a price), but this interaction is only available if you have Livin' Large and Unleashed. Sometimes, when the zombie's mood is bad, she wouldn't resurrect it, and she will say that the zombie does not want to be resurrected now. The same goes for cats and dogs.

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 (kind of a reference to the song "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" by The Charlie Daniels Band). 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 your Sim won't come back and Grim will just take your money. Paying the Grim an amount between $996 - $1408 will make the resurrected Sim a zombie and if you pay the Grim Reaper more than $1408, he'll bring your Sim 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. A Zombie's need also lows faster than a normal sims and it's moves 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 Apartment 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.

Easy Hybrids!
You can also get a hybrid in The Sims 2 by doing this: --Note-- You have to add an extra, useless sim (which will die)to the family in which you want someone to get pregnant. 1. Turn on the boolprop cheat 2. Shift-Click on whatever sim you want, click SPAWN in the pie menu and then select ''Tombstone of L&D" A tombstone should appear. 3. Shift-Click once again, but this time select Spawn- Rodney's Death Creator. This also looks like a tomstone. Don't get them mixed up! 4. As the useless Sim, click on the Death Creator and select your way to die. (Die By Sattelite is the funniest) 5.He/She will die. When the Grim Reaper shows up ,pause the game and, as the sim you want pregnant (it can be a boy, but adults only!), click on the tombstone of L&D and select Get pregnant with...-Grim Reaper. 6. Ta-dah! You are now pregnant with the Grim Reaper! Enjoy!

7. --Easter Egg-- When your hybrid baby grows up, you make him\her get pregnant with Grim, then when THAT baby grows up, get it pregnant with Grim, and so on and so forth until you get a ghost baby!He/she is a Controllable Ghost! And by the way, they are white ghosts.


 * Please note: Not all of the hybrids will come out with droopy eyes; not having sallow skin has yet to be proven.*

Trivia
If you have the boolprop cheat on you can have your Sim wear Grim's outfit and if Grim comes on the lot you can also use boolprop to steal his scythe and put it as a Decoration or put it in your Sims hand.

Player stories
I made my sim a man named Grim last name Reaper he had the Reaper outfit using the boolprop cheat he mad a wife named cancer and he owned a bar/grill named "Deaths Bar/Grill" His wife wore goth robes they also had a dog named Stroke, Stroke was a Female Husky. COME EAT AT DEATHS BAR/GRILL FEATURING THE NEW DEATH DRINK SEE HOW MANY YOU CAN DRINK TILL YOU DIE! The top score is 5 then the people die except for Grim,Cancer,and Stroke.

(I wrote the Easy Hybrids section-- Read it so you understand) So I got a controllable ghost (Clara last name Reaper) And I somehow mannaged to make a real WooHoo with the Grim Reaper and her!! And then Grim dissapeared and Clara had a baby boy which I named Grim and when he grew up he had Grim Reaper outfit! It was SO COOL! (No hacks, only the boolprop cheat)

YES, you CAN woohoo with Grim and YES, you can control ghosts!
