'''Drowning''' is a form of [[death]] in ''[[The Sims]]'', ''[[The Sims 2]]'', ''[[The Sims 3]]'' and ''[[The Sims 4]]''. Drowning is the second form of death which covers all ages from [[child]] to [[elder]], the other being [[fire]]. Like [[starvation]], it is the slowest way for a Sim to die.
==Cause==
==The Grim Reaper==
When a Sim drowns, the [[Grim Reaper]] arrives as usual. However, players generally cannot have another Sim plead with him as with [[Death|other means of death]], as Sims will not be able to get to him while he is in the in the middle of the pool. Therefore, Sims who have drowned likely have no chance of regaining life unless they are resurrected.
However, two [[expansion pack]]s for ''The Sims 2'' provide exceptions to this. If ''[[The Sims 2: FreeTime]]'' is installed, a drowned Sim who had successfully [[Genie#The Sims 2|wished]] for the power to cheat death can plead for
==Drowned
In ''The Sims 2'', the [[ghost]] of a Sim who has drowned will be a shade of blue and will often create puddles or flood a room while they walk about. Other Sims may have to mop this up. Sometimes they will leap into bathtubs and start the bath water. Afterwards, they will jump out.
In ''The Sims 3'', the ghost of a drowned Sim is still blue and will have water dripping from their body, but won't create puddles.
In ''[[The Sims 3: Pets]]'', if a pet runs out of energy in a pool, they will teleport out of the pool. Pets can actually get the "Drowning" Moodlet. However, there is a bug where they will still have the "Drowning" moodlet after teleporting out. When it runs out, they will drown, but the game treats the animation as death by old age (pets). Instead of being red or blue depending on their lifetime happiness, the ghost will have the same blue texture as the drowning ghost for Sims, minus any ghost effects or noises.
==Notable Drowned Sims==▼
*[[Skip Broke]], resident of [[Pleasantview]], father of [[Dustin Broke |Dustin]] and [[Beau Broke]], and husband of [[Brandi Broke]]. His mysterious death is ascribed to a "suspicious pool ladder accident".▼
In ''The Sims 4'', the ghost of a Sim who has drowned has hydrophobia (fear of water) and leaves puddles around, similar to ''The Sims 2''.
▲*[[Skip Broke]], resident of [[Pleasantview]], father of [[Dustin Broke
*[[Willow Nigmos]], resident of [[Strangetown]], sister of [[Olive Specter]]. Her tombstone rests in Olive's yard.

==Notes==
* In ''[[The Sims 3: Island Paradise]]'', Sims with the Lungs of Steel [[lifetime reward]] cannot drown in the ocean, but can still drown in a swimming pool.
* Similarly, in ''[[The Sims 4: Island Living]]'', Sims with the [[child of the ocean]] [[Trait (The Sims 4)|trait]] are unable to drown, both in pools and in the ocean.
