The '''Landgraab family''' is a wealthy family dynasty that resides in [[Sunset Valley]] in ''[[The Sims 3]]''; [[Bluewater Village]] in ''[[The Sims 2]]''; and [[Oasis Springs]] in ''[[The Sims 4]]''. The family name is occasionally spelt "'''Landgrabb'''", mostly in ''[[The Sims]]''. Which spelling is used depends on which game or expansion pack introduced the object or place or Sim that used it.
 
[[Landgraab Industries]] is featured prominently in both building names in ''[[w:c:simcity:SimCity 3000|SimCity 3000]]'' and brand names for objects in ''The Sims''. Most of the family's wealth appears to come from property and real estate (In ''SimCity 3000'', they are associated more with residential property building, a role which resurfaced in ''The Sims: Bustin Out'' when most of the town seem to fail to pay their rent.) In other Sims games, they are more associated with commercial property, giving the Landgraab name a literal meaning of "grabbing the land".
The '''Landgraab Family''' is a brilliant and wealthy dynasty that, in ''[[The Sims 3]]'', resides in [[Sunset Valley]]; and lives in [[Bluewater Village]] in ''[[The Sims 2]]''.

==History==
===Origins===
The Landgraab fortune, or at least a sizable part of it, presumably dates back to a historical figure named Gregory Landgraab, who does not appear in any known version of the Landgraab family tree. If ''The Sims 2: Seasons'' is installed, a chance card for the [[adventurer]] career reads as follows:
 
<blockquote>Around the turn of the century, Gregory Landgraab, a humble school teacher, suddenly came into a great deal of money and became one of the wealthiest landowners around. This was never explained, though many theories suggest foul play and the Ministry of Adventure has tasked (name) with solving the case, once and for all. After a great deal of research, (name) believes one of two people will have the answers he/she needs: Spencer Oswald, the Landgraab's accountant or the local fortune teller, the gypsy. Who should (name) bring in for questioning?</blockquote>
== The Sims ==
In ''[[The Sims]]'', one of the default [[Downtown]] lots in ''[[Hot Date]]'' is Landgraab Mall and there is a default [[Vacation Island]] lot named Wren's Fens National Park, which was originally one of [[Admiral Landgraab]]'s colonial acquisitions. Also, there is a painting of Admiral Landgraab in the Buy mode catalog, and some items refer to him. Admiral Landgraab's first name is not given, and his relationship to the [[Malcolm Landgraab IV]] of Bluewater Village is unknown.
 
The mentioned Gregory shares the same name with [[Gregory Landgraab]] of [[Oasis Landing]]. This could be a coincidence, as it's highly unlikely that they're the same person; alternatively, the Gregory from Oasis Landing could be named for the original Gregory.
=== Console ===
On the PlayStation 2, Xbox and Gamecube games of ''[[The Sims: Bustin' Out]]'' a Malcolm Landgraab is the richest man around. As he takes items of importance and interest, his surname could be indicative of his ''grab''by nature. [[Dudley Landgraab]] and his sister [[Mimi Landgraab]] are introduced along with their mother who is simply named [[Mom Landgraab]]. Mom and Malcolm were recently divorced, sending Malcolm into a rage of stealing from other Sims. It is unknown how this Malcolm is related to the Malcolm in ''[[The Sims 3]]''.
 
===Demetrius and Dacian Landegraab===
In ''[[The Sims Medieval: Pirates & Nobles]]'', a family under the name of Landegraab appears. They own the city of Tredony, known as one of the richest cities in the [[kingdom]]. There are only two family members, father and son [[Demetrius Landegraab|Demetrius]] and Dacian. Tredony and a neighboring city, Aarbyville, are at war and the player has the choice of choosing sides in the war.
 
If Demetrius and Dacian are direct ancestors of the Landgraab family, they would be the oldest known family members.
== The Sims 2 ==
In ''[[The Sims 2]]'', the Landgraabs are mentioned in the first expansion pack, [[University]]. One of the dorms at [[Sim State University]] is named "Landgraab House", and the Secret Society there is known as the [[Landgraab Society]]. The connections, whether past or present, between the family and Sim State are not mentioned.
 
===Admiral Landgraab===
In the ''Open for Business'' expansion pack, a family named the "Landgraab IV family", is introduced with one surviving member, [[Malcolm Landgraab IV]]. The family tree shows two other Malcolms, Malcolm IV's father and grandfather, but doesn't mention the original Malcolm or his children Dudley and Mimi. Malcolm Landgraab IV owns Club Dante and the Electronics Supercenter in [[Bluewater Village]]. While he is rich, most of his money is tied up in the house and its furnishings. In the neighborhood view it states that he has §197,000 in net worth, but in funds, around §28,000.
In ''The Sims'', ''[[The Sims: Hot Date]]'' and ''[[The Sims: Vacation]]'', [[Admiral Landgraab]] is mentioned as another historical figure with an extensive background. Wren's Fens National Park on [[Vacation Island]] is described as one of his first colonial acquisitions, an Admiral Landgraab nutcracker can be bought on Vacation Island, and some items refer to him. His portrait, which is available in [[buy mode]], includes a short bio. Admiral Landgraab's first name is not given, and his relationship to the [[Malcolm Landgraab IV]] of Bluewater Village and the Landgraabs of Sunset Valley is unknown. It is likely that he lived after Gregory, as that would give the family time to gain prestige, but this is not confirmed. However, Admiral Landgraab might also be Gregory himself instead.
 
His exploits are much further elaborated on in ''[[The Sims 3: World Adventures]]''. Despite being his descendants, the Landgraab family has no easier time navigating his chateau in [[Champs Les Sims]]. They also get no bonuses for doing so.
If ''Seasons'' is installed, a chance card for the [[Adventurer]] career mentions a "Gregory Landgraab", who does not appear in any known version of the Landgraab family tree.
 
===The Sims 3===
Here is what the chance card says:
In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', the Landgraabs are seen living in one of three mansions (the other two being the Goth mansion and the Alto mansion) and are already very wealthy. [[Nancy Landgraab|Nancy]] is a Landgraab by birth, born to [[Chester Landgraab|Chester]] and [[Queenie Landgraab]], and followed the family legacy by becoming vice president of the business district. At one point before the game, she married a modest, artistic doctor named [[Geoffrey Landgraab|Geoffrey]], who took his wife's name for its privileged status. They had a son named Malcolm, a smart child who Nancy is attempting to make a proper heir, however, it is stated that Nancy is too busy with work and publicity to dote on Malcolm, so although he is friends with his parents, he has a better relationship with his father than his mother and constantly dreams of being a doctor every time his father gets a promotion.
<blockquote>
Around the turn of the century, Gregory Landgraab, a humble school teacher, suddenly came into a great deal of money and became one of the wealthiest landowners around. This was never explained, though many theories suggest foul play and the Ministry of Adventure has tasked (name) with solving the case, once and for all. After a great deal of research, (name) believes one of two people will have the answers he/she needs: Spencer Oswald, the Landgraab's accountant or the local fortune teller, the gypsy. Who should (name) bring in for questioning?
</blockquote>
 
It is unknown how he is related to the other Malcolms in ''The Sims: Bustin' Out'' and ''The Sims 2'', but his parents do not fit into the family tree given in ''The Sims 2''. While [[Malcolm Landgraab III|Malcolm III]] might have been a child during the [[Sunset Valley]] time frame, he would not be ''this'' Malcolm. However, it is possible that he could be the Malcolm in ''The Sims: Bustin' Out'' and/or ''The Sims (console)''. Regardless of their relationship to the rest of the family, they also are very well off. They live in a large home and have §75,000 in household funds.
 
It is also mentioned several times in ''The Sims 3'' that Nancy's family, helped start the town. It says in the family bio that "Nancy's family more or less founded the town", while the description of Sunset Valley states that "before Pleasantview, the town was founded by the Goths and built up by the Landgraabs". They have a business feud with the [[Alto Family|Altos]], and are enemies with them, though young Malcolm and [[Holly Alto (Sunset Valley)|Holly Alto]] have no quarrel with each other.
== The Sims 3 ==
In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', the Landgraab household contains Geoffrey, a modest doctor who took his wife's surname, Nancy, a snobbish businesswoman with a long family history of evil Sims, and [[Malcolm Landgraab (The Sims 3)|Malcolm]], a smart yet confused kid who just wants his family to be normal. It is unknown how he is related to the other Malcolms in The Sims: Bustin' Out and The Sims 2, but his parents do not fit into the family tree given in The Sims 2. So, while [[Malcolm Landgraab III|Malcolm III]] might have been a child during ''The Sims 3'' time frame, he would not be ''this'' Malcolm. Regardless of their relationship to the rest of the family, they are very well off. They live in a large home and have §75,000 in household funds.
 
The Landgraab family is "old money", so it is likely that they inherited their money from the earlier generation of Landgraabs that founded the town. However, it does not specify who exactly founded the town. It is possible that Admiral Landgraab, being the earliest mention of the Landgraab family from ''[[The Sims]]'', is the town founder. However, he is not listed in the Landgraab family tree for ''The Sims 3'', so [[Kermit Landgraab]] and/or [[Kitty Landgraab]] would be primarily who built up the town since [[Goth Family|The Goths]] founded [[Sunset Valley]] and [[Pleasantview]].
 
====Magnus Landgraab====
{{FamilyPage
If a Sim is level 10 in the thief branch of the criminal career, they can get a random event mentioning Magnus Landgraab. The event reads:
|etymology = '''Landgraab'''-- as in grabbing land.
 
<blockquote>(Sim Name) was scoping out another job when he noticed that Magnus Landgraab was getting a delivery of expensive solid platinum induction coils for some nefarious purpose. Using his/her incredible skills he/she managed to snag one of these coils for free money. Magnus will never notice, especially since his plans never work anyways.</blockquote>
'''Malcolm Landgraab''', II, III, IV-- (there was a quote on him) We will establish our estate upon
 
From the description of the event it can be concluded that Magnus is male thief or evil inventor whose "plans never work".
'''Mom'''-- is a biological and/or social female parent of an offspring
 
In addition, if a Sim works in the [[law enforcement]] career at level 10, another random event might occur, where the Sim will foil Magnus' plan to take over a small nation.
'''Marion Landgraab'''-- (form of mary) "bitterness","rebelliousness", "wished for child" or "drop of the sea"
 
[[File:OpportunityLandgraab.png|250px|The law enforcement event which mentions Magnus Landgraab.]]
'''Margaret Landgraab'''-- "pearl" or "precious" (Greek).
 
===The Sims 3 (console)===
'''Dudley Landgraab'''-- (dude)is an individual, typically male, or the place of the dead, a burying-ground
In [[The Sims 3 (console)|''The Sims 3'' for PS3/XBOX360]], [[Malcolm Landgraab (The Sims 3)|Malcolm Landgraab]] is an adult who has grown up and moved to [[Moonlight Bay]]. He has a wife named [[Hannelore Landgraab]] and a son named [[Adrien Landgraab]].
 
===The Sims (console) and The Sims: Bustin' Out===
'''Mimi Landgraab'''-- faithful guard strong opponent bitter, as in a bitterly wanted child, - the star of the sea
In console versions of ''The Sims'', a character named Malcolm Landgraab is the richest man around who gives the main character real estate opportunities (fixing up each house they live in to sell at a higher price), and later marries [[Mom Landgraab|their mom]].
 
His children are [[Dudley Landgraab]] and [[Mimi Landgraab]], both slackers, party animals and heirs to his vast fortune. In the sequel, ''[[The Sims Bustin' Out (console)|The Sims Bustin' Out]]'', Malcolm and Mom divorce and he flies into a rage of repossessing everyone's money and goods before the player stops him. Depending on the player's choices, a senator named Malcolm Landgraab can be killed as part of a government conspiracy. In the final stage, Mom chases Malcolm Landgraab out of his own mansion. It is unknown how this Malcolm is related to the Malcolm in ''[[The Sims 3]]''. It is theorized that they are the same person, but ''Bustin' Out''<nowiki/>'s Malcolm's malevolent behavior contradicts ''The Sims 3''<nowiki/>'s Malcolm's [[Good (The Sims 3)|Good]] trait, making this unlikely.
'''Buckingham'''-- In the 7th century AD, Buckingham, literally "meadow of Bucca's people"
 
===The Sims 2===
'''Blair Buckingham'''-- (Celtic) "a plain". From a surname
In ''[[The Sims 2]]'', the Landgraabs are mentioned in the first expansion pack, ''[[The Sims 2: University|University]]''. One of the dorms at [[Sim State University]] is named "Landgraab House", and the secret society there is known as the [[Landgraab Society]]. The connections, whether past or present, between the family and Sim State are not mentioned.
 
In ''[[The Sims 2: Open for Business|Open for Business]]'' expansion pack, [[Malcolm Landgraab IV]] is introduced as a bachelor in a very large mansion in [[Bluewater Village]]. His family tree reveals exactly who his parents and grandparents are, but only dates back to Malcolm II and not Malcolm I. Malcolm Landgraab IV owns Club Dante and the Electronics Supercenter in Bluewater Village. While he is rich, most of his money is tied up in the house and its furnishings. The neighborhood view shows that his initial net worth is around §197,000, but he starts out with around §28,000 in funds.
'''Virginia Buckingham'''-- (Latin) "chaste". According to legend, she was a Roman woman killed by her father so as to keep her a virgin-- (Latin) "chaste".
 
===The Sims 3 Store===
|tree = '''Note:''' ''There are two possible versions of the Landgraab family tree. Neither of these versions has been confirmed by the producers.''
In [[Lunar Lakes]], the Landgraab household consists of elder scientist [[Christina Landgraab|Christina]] and her three clone-children, young adult [[Chris Landgraab|Chris]] and teens [[Chrissie Landgraab|Chrissie]] and [[Christa Landgraab|Christa]]. While they live in a large and expensive house, they start out with §10,000 in funds.
[[Image:Landgraab Family Tree.png|750px]]<p>
 
How can the one above be possible if the Evil Malcolm is from console, which takes place at the same time as Sims 1. ''Children'' from the Sims 3 are adults in the Sims 1. Meaning The one below '''''has''''' to be right.
In [[Midnight Hollow]], the Landgraab household consists of just [[Todd Landgraab]]. He is a rich gentleman, but it’s unknown whether he really is related to the Landgraab family or only shares their surname.

===The Sims 3: Into the Future===
*[[Malcolm Landgraab (console)|Malcolm Landgraab I]] (''deceased'')
The Landgraab family reappeared in [[Oasis Landing]]. The household consists of [[Gregory Landgraab|Gregory]], [[Cheryl Landgraab|Cheryl]], [[Timothy Landgraab|Timothy]], [[Lara Landgraab|Lara]] and the family [[Plumbot]], [[Model U]]. Unlike the Landgraab families from other worlds, the family is unplayable at the start of the game.
*[[Malcolm Landgraab II]] (''deceased'')
 
*[[Marion Landgraab]] (''deceased'')
Gregory shares the same name as Gregory Landgraab who is mentioned in the [[chance card]] of [[adventurer]] career in ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons]]'', as stated [[Landgraab family#Origin|above]].
*[[Malcolm Landgraab III]] (''deceased'')
 
*[[Margaret Landgraab]] (''deceased'')
===The Sims 4===
*[[Blair Buckingham]] (''deceased'')
The Landgraab family appear in ''[[The Sims 4]]'', which takes place in an alternate universe from previous games in the series. The family can be found living in a mansion in [[Oasis Springs]], and is made up of the same three family members who appeared in ''The Sims 3'': Geoffrey, Nancy, and Malcolm. Like their former incarnations, Geoffrey and Nancy are adults; Malcolm, however, has been aged up from a child to a teen. One notable difference between the universes is that while Malcolm in ''The Sims 3'' had the [[good]] trait, Malcolm in ''The Sims 4'' is [[evil]]; and Nancy, who was portrayed as a snobbish but overall kind businesswoman in the former, is a career [[criminal]] in the latter. Meanwhile, though Geoffrey's personality remains almost unchanged, his career is changed from medicine to [[secret agent]], something which the family bio implies will create tension in his marriage to Nancy, once it emerges that they operate on opposite sides of the law.
*[[Virginia Buckingham]] (''deceased'')
 
A fourth member of the Landgraab family, [[Johnny Zest]], appears in Oasis Springs in ''The Sims 4'', though he neither lives with the rest of the family nor shares their last name. Johnny's bio explains that the family disowned him when he announced his intention to become a professional [[Entertainment|comedian]], and that subsequently he now uses his stage name all the time. It is not specified whether Johnny is the son of Geoffrey and Nancy, and therefore the brother of Malcolm; a sibling of Nancy's; or a more distant relative. His appearance and the appearance of his home are reminiscent of [[Dudley Landgraab]] and [[Dudley's Trailer]] in the original timeline's console spin-offs; since it's not clear whether "Johnny" is his real first name or part of his stage name, it's possible that he is the alternate universe's version of Dudley.

In ''The Sims 2'', Malcolm Landgraab IV lives alone in a huge mansion overlooking the town. The house is large by Sims-standards, and features a hot tub and indoor swimming pool. Oddly, the house has no television, despite the fact that Malcolm owns an electronics store. There is also a strange, empty shed to the left of the house. Its size and placement are just right for it to be a garage, with the addition of a driveway, a garage door, and, of course, a car. The house has very expensive furniture.
In ''The Sims 2: Open for Business'', Malcolm Landgraab IV lives alone in a huge mansion on [[74 Gondola Way]] in [[Bluewater Village]]. The house is large by Sims-standards, and features a large office and balcony, a hot tub, and indoor swimming pool. Oddly, the house has no television, even though Malcolm owns an electronics store. There is also a strange, empty shed to the left of the house. Its size and placement are just right for it to be a garage, with the addition of a driveway, a garage door, and, of course, a car. Also worth noting is that there are several blank white walls on the upstairs portion of the house, and while they are painted an "off-white", the player might prefer to revamp the second floor to match the rest of the house's interior. The house has very expensive furniture, many of it new mission-style furnishings that are featured in ''Open For Business''. It also has hedges and a few rosebushes to the left and right of the entrance, and some trees and bushes in the back. Malcolm would do well to hire a [[gardener]] or [[butler]]{{vgversion|TS2:AL}}, especially if ''Seasons'' is installed.

In ''The Sims 3'', the Landgraab family lives in a luxurious mansion on [[10 Summer Hill Court]], in the town of [[Sunset Valley]]. Judging by the house and where they live, it is quite obvious that they are wealthy. It is the most expensive lot in town.
 
<blockquote>An elegant home on the most exclusive circle in town, this stately manor resounds with grandeur. Four fireplaces, a massive kitchen, formal and informal living areas, a large custom pool, two car garage, and elegant neoclassical landscaping round out its elegant features.</blockquote>

==Landgraab Chateau==
[[File:Chateau_Landgraab.jpg|thumb|Chateau du Landgraab.]]
In ''[[The Sims 3: World Adventures]]'', Sims can travel to [[Champs Les Sims]], home to a giant tomb known as the [[Chateau du Landgraab]]. Unlike most tombs, this tomb is rather unconventional in the sense that, since it is set in a huge mansion rather than an actual underground tomb. Most of the dungeon is actually above ground level. Since players also explore a basement underneath the chateau, it is one of the largest tombs in the game.
 
Furthermore, it is very hard to get into, due to the fact that its original inhabitant, [[Admiral Landgraab]], was very paranoid and filled his large estate with booby traps. In order to fully explore the house, players will need to fulfill several adventures in France that will give them keystones, and one keystone is only obtained by doing an adventure in China to explore the cellar area. It should also be noted that Pangu's Axe is required to explore a small underground part behind the house, near the groundskeeper's shack.
 
Those who hope to complete the tomb should keep in mind it is impossible to complete in one trip, and may take (depending on Visa level) multiple trips to round out exploration of the chateau.
