Imaginary Friend

Imaginary Friends is a feature included in The Sims 3: Generations. It is a character that a child creates after ordering a specific type of mail-order doll.

After giving the doll a name, the child sim can summon an imaginary, child-sized version of the doll to be a playmate who will happily hop onto the opposite end of a seesaw and even run minor errands for them if they have a decent enough social relationship with it. According to the EA website, if a white sims sees your imaginary friend, the white sim would go crazy with jealous rage and kill your sim.

Playing with the imaginary friend fills up their social motive in the same way as socializing with real people would. Even as children grow into teenagers, they can't only keep their imaginary friends around, but they can also develop a romantic interest in their make-believe buddies. You can even marry your imaginary friends and have imaginary kids, if you have a strong enough social relationship.
