World Willow Creek

Cassandra Goth ( /kəˈsændrə ɡɑːθ/) is a pre-made, playable Sim who first appeared in The Sims as a child residing with her mother, Bella, and father, Mortimer, in their home on 5 Sim Lane. She reappears as an adult in The Sims 2 in Pleasantview with her father and younger brother Alexander. She, her father, and her mother are also the only Sims to keep the same biography between The Sims and The Sims 2.

Cassandra is one of only two living pre-made adult Sims from Pleasantview that was not featured in The Sims 3 (the other being Brandi Broke). Her parents, however, are shown to be children in Sunset Valley, so it is possible for her to be born in-game once they become young adults.

Cassandra and her family return in Willow Creek in The Sims 4, albeit in a different timeline.

Biography[edit | edit source]

Life leading up to The Sims (console)[edit | edit source]

In The Sims for console, Cassandra lives with her parents, Mortimer Goth and Bella Goth, in 5 Sim Avenue. She is a B student. She has the same black pigtails, white blouse and black shoes, but now has pink sunglasses with black lenses and a black skirt. She shares a 20+ relationship with both her parents. She likes to play with her toys, play the piano, feed the fish and mourn at the tombstones. If the player leaves her alone when first playing her family she will go to the telephone and wonder what it is.

With Free Will on, Cassandra and her family will only mourn at the tombstones even if they are in a bad mood.

Life leading up to The Sims[edit | edit source]

In The Sims, she is a child living with her parents, Mortimer Goth and Bella Goth. Cassandra is an A student, and enjoys having tea with her grandmother, Cornelia Goth. She also enjoys reading and playing with her toys. She wears round, horn-rimmed glasses; a white-collared blouse; a blue, knee-length skirt; white socks and  black shoes. Cassandra is shy and doesn't say much. Not much is known about her until she has her own story to tell in The Sims 2.

Life leading up to The Sims 2[edit | edit source]

In the 25 years that have theoretically passed between The Sims and The Sims 2, she makes her reappearance living in Goth Manor with her aging father, Mortimer Goth, and her bright younger brother, Alexander Goth. She has grown into an adult and honors her last name. She wears a long, black, Medieval-style dress; host pigtails; round glasses and black high heel ankle boots. She rarely smiles.

She is engaged to marry Don Lothario and madly in love with him, but does not realize—or appears to be unaware—that he is also involved with several other women. She is also unaware of the crush that her neighbor Darren Dreamer has on her. Due to Darren's love for Cassandra, there is a chance he may flirt with her, making her fall in love with him. If Cassandra is engaged, she would be cheating on Don.

Like her father, Mortimer, she works in the science career track, where she is a field researcher. Cassandra is an adult and becomes an elder in 26 days. She is generally shy and neat, and is occasionally playful; her favorite activities are playing piano and reading. Cassandra wants to have a family and live a normal life.

She is close friends with Mary-Sue Pleasant, and has been since they were children. One of the Pleasant family's story-telling pictures suggests that Cassandra was the Maid of Honor at Mary-Sue's wedding.

When the Goths are first played in The Sims 2, Cassandra and Don are in the back garden, and a game tip instructs that the player should give Don a romantic gesture to spark things off. It then tells the player to marry them, which can be achieved by simply clicking the wedding arch and "Get married". In these circumstances Don usually leaves Cassandra at the altar, leaving her in a bad mood and, if Nightlife or later is installed, furious with Don. However, it is possible to have Don marry her by simply getting the relationship higher and doing more than just a kiss (getting the relationship to 100).

A bit of trivia is that Cassandra is the only pre-made adult in Pleasantview who can trace back to any of his or her great-grandparents. This is probably because Gunther and Cornelia's parents are buried in the family graveyard and haunt the grounds, and therefore need to have character files. Another interesting fact is that Cassandra and Mary-Sue have memories of meeting during their childhood, even though Mary-Sue is much older than Cassandra. (This can be reconciled if it's assumed that Cassandra had access to the Elixir of Life while Mary-Sue did not - or that maybe Mary-Sue had access to it, and got the negative effect).

The other interesting fact is that Alexander was born before Mary-Sue and Cassandra became best friends. That is noticeable when comparing Cassandra and Mortimer's memories. However, Alexander is still a child and Mary-Sue's daughters (who were born much later) Angela and Lilith are teenagers. This proves that Alexander is older than Angela and Lilith even though he's a child.

Another fact is that Mary-Sue wasn't present in The Sims and that Daniel Pleasant was much older than his sister Jennifer, indicating that he was possibly a teenager, which could've made Mary-Sue a teenager as well, both facts complicating the fact that Mary-Sue and Cassandra were childhood friends. It's possible that Mary-Sue did move to the neighborhood after the main events of The Sims. Also, there is no teen life stage in The Sims.

Strangely, while Cassandra is a Cancer in The Sims, she is a Virgo in The Sims 2. She and her friend, Mary-Sue Pleasant, are the only pre-made adults in Pleasantview to have at least one living parent. Cassandra always visits the Pleasant family the first day the family is played.

If Darren invites Cassandra over when first playing the Dreamer family, there is a high chance that she will flirt with him autonomously. It is unknown whether this was scripted, although it is a strong possibility since it is relatively uncommon for Sims to autonomously initiate romantic interactions on Sims they don't have romantic feelings towards, unless they have previously been directed to do so by the player.

In the neighborhood pictures for Pleasantview, Cassandra is wearing a different dress, which is black with faint white lines. Also, her hair is slightly different from the way it is in actual gameplay. The dress and hairstyle shown in those pictures appear to have been removed from the game itself.

Life leading up to The Sims 4[edit | edit source]

Cassandra appears in The Sims 4 as a teen, living with her parents and younger brother in the Ophelia Villa in Willow Creek. It has been confirmed that this version of Cassandra exists in an alternate continuity to the one found in previous games.

When first played, Cassandra is a high school student with a C grade. She is 13 days away from becoming a young adult. She wears black pigtails; black oval glasses; white earrings; a black blouse; a black and a gray check skirt; gray and white knee-high socks and black boots with white laces. She carries a homework book in her inventory, has two points in the violin skill and has the Musical Genius aspiration. She is friends with her parents and brother, but has no relationships outside of her household. She has the creative and gloomy traits, and the muser bonus trait.

This version of Cassandra originally had lighter skin than most previous incarnations of the character, and there is a much smaller age gap between her and her younger brother than there was in The Sims 2; However, Cassandra and her family were given an official makeover shortly after the release of patch 129 of the base game, which made her skin tone darker again.

It is still possible for her to get engaged to Don once she ages up into a young adult, since he is present in Oasis Springs, but they will have a much bigger age gap than in The Sims 2, where she was actually two days older than him when first played. If the player chooses, however, they may fix this by giving Don a Potion of Youth (effectively resetting the clock on his Young Adulthood) once Cassandra ages up and is two days into Young Adulthood, which would make her two days older than him. Alternatively, the player can simply get Bella, Mortimer or Cassandra to bake a cake and get Cassandra to blow out the candles, which will age her into a young adult a lot earlier than if she was to be a teenager until her birthday.

Depictions in other games[edit | edit source]

In SimGolf, there are her parents, the Tragic Clown and other characters for download from the official site. She will be one of the player's golfers. It is also mentioned that she liked Rock music, guns and death.

In the original MySims game there is a spooky ghost called Cassandra. Some players feel she could be Cassandra Goth, but it is uncertain as no last name is given.

Quotes[edit | edit source]

A list of Cassandra Goth's quotes from SimGolf.

Note that some of these quotes are of direct references to the rock singer Marilyn Manson's songs and/or lyrics. (e.g. The Love Song ["Do you love your guns?"], Snake Eyes and Sissies, Dried Up Tied and Dead to the World, Misery Machine, Sympathy for the Parents, Lunchbox...)

  • Rock star, yah
  • Do I ever love my guns, PARTNER?
  • You can't begin to feel on this shot.
  • This shot is a graveyard.
  • Shoot here and the world gets smaller.
  • Now I have sympathy for my parents.
  • Golf is a misery machine.
  • Put me in the graveyard.
  • Rip that DATA out by its roots!!
  • Into the river Styx.
  • Paint that DATA black.
  • That DATA is for snake eyes and sissies.
  • I can't control my animal instincts.
  • I'm dried up, tied up, and dead to the world.
  • Aaahh, wet death...
  • There's a devil in my lunchbox.
  • Well hello there Mr. Devil.
  • Just dead to the world.
  • This bench is killing me.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • Cassandra appears in all main series games except The Sims 3. Her brother appeared in The Sims 3 for Nintendo DS, married to Cecilia Goth, however, Cassandra does not appear nor is she referred to. This is because her parents, Bella and Mortimer, are children in this game.
    • However Cassandra can be born if Bella and Mortimer become adults and have a daughter, although there is no guarantee said daughter will look anything like Cassandra, since genetics are totally randomized. However, cheats can be used to change the appearance of a sim once they become a toddler.
  • She may be based on/a spoof of Wednesday Addams from The Addams Family, due to her appearance and personality.
  • She is named Carin Spökh in the Swedish version of The Sims, yet Cornelia's bio refers to her as Cassandra. This was probably a translation error.
