Mortimer Goth

Mortimer lives in the Goth mansion with his daughter Cassandra and son Alexander. Wife Bella is missing, having been abducted by aliens.

Life leading up to The Sims 1
Mortimer Goth was born outside of SimCity in the Old Country, which could refer to a place such as England or an unknown rural area. His father, Gunther moved the family to SimCity when Mortimer was young. By the time we get to the original Sims, Mortimer lives with is wife Bella and his daughter Cassandra. He is also in the science career track (which he will later excel in). His parents live in a large estate on Maple street nearby. Strangely enough in the original sims his star sign is actually Taurus, which later changes to a Cancer in the Sims 2.

Life leading up to the Sims 2
Between the two sims games, a lot happens in Mortimer's life. He rises through the ranks of the science career to become an esteemed mad scientist, accumulating a lot of wealth along the way. (which later attracts the attention of the Caliente sisters.) Mortimer's parents; Gunther and Cornelia both die, and eventually Mortimer and Bella have a son, Alexander. As of The Sims 2 he is retired and his daughter, Cassandra (who is an adult by this time), is following in her father's footsteps in the science career. Cassandra is engaged to the town casanova Don Lothario, with plans to settle down.



Perhaps the most significant event is the mysterious disappearance of Mortimer's wife Bella. All evidence points to alien abduction, but it's interesting to note she was last seen "scaling the deck" of Don Lothario's condo. Bella's disappearance was well publicised, with "missing" notices appearing on milk cartons and in papers. This publicity has lead to many theories and rumours, and even supposed sightings in Strangetown. As of The Sims 2, she remains missing.

Homes
In the Sims 1, Mortimer lives with his wife Bella and his daughter Cassandra in a small house on Sim Lane (despite his parent's massive mansion on Maple Street). It only has 5 rooms on two floors: a lounge, a kitchen and two bedrooms as well as a small bathroom. The garden, although much larger, is plain except for the large graveyard, which characterises the Goths' often seemingly morbid appearance. at night ghosts often haunt the lot.

By the Sims 2, Mortimer's wealth led to a much larger estate, with 3 floors as well as a roof terrace. There is a kitchen, a study, an entrance hall and a dining room, three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a landing as well as a bare attic room. The garden is very interesting. The front path is flanked by two large trees. The whole house is on a raised deck, with a flight of steps to reach the front door. If a user closely examines the floor plans, one can tell that the Sims 2 house has the same floor plan (except with more floors and a foundation), suggesting that this is perhaps the same house with many additions added on. Behind the house is a wedding arch, along with chairs and tables(suggesting an imminent wedding) perhaps intened for Don and Cassandra. Also featured is a graveyard with six dead relatives.
