'''''[[PrecipitationBonehilda]]''''' is aan game[[NPC]] mechanicthat firstwas introduced in ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons]]Makin'' and ''[[The Sims Castaway StoriesMagic]]'', and later reintroducedreturned in ''[[The Sims 3: SeasonsSupernatural]]'' and ''[[The Sims 4: SeasonsParanormal Stuff]]''. PrecipitationShe iscan abe partsummoned offrom [[Weather (game mechanic)|weather]] and is typicallyeither a randomspecial and unpredictable event; while Sims can get weather forecasts by watchingupright [[TVcoffin]],{{Vgversion|TS:MM}}{{Vgversion|TS3:SN}} theseor predictionsby mayperforming be inaccurate. Precipitation can fall either as rain, hail, ora [[snowMedium|seance]], depending on the season; snow is typically only a wintertime occurrence, while hail only falls in the summer{{Vgversion|TS4:PS}}.
 
She mainly functions as a [[maid]], with the ability to clean a Sim's house free of charge. However, depending on the game, she can also repair broken appliances, do [[laundry]], tend to a [[garden]], socialize, prepare meals, and care for children. As a walking [[skeleton]], any human maids who see her while they are working may freak out and quit their job, and house guests will generally be [[tense]] in her presence. In [[Haunted house residential|haunted houses]]{{Vgversion|TS4:PS}}, she is able to protect the residents by fighting off a vengeful spirit known as [[Temperance]].
Precipitation can vary in intensity, accumulation, and duration; heavy precipitation tends to affect the surrounding environment more than light precipitation. For instance, heavy rainfall tends to produce [[lightning]] storms more often than light rain, while heavy hail is more likely to damage [[gardening|crops]] and injure Sims. A large-enough accumulation of snow is a prerequisite for many wintertime activities, such as making [[snowman|snowmen]] or having snowball fights.
 
Bonehilda will occasionally grab a drink from a nearby [[Bar (object)|bar]], [[sink]] or [[refrigerator]] when she has nothing else to do, which will humorously flow right through her and leave a puddle on the floor. She also seems to be a fan of the [[Grim Reaper]], and might stop to ask him for an autograph if he shows up{{Vgversion|TS:MM}}.
Precipitation can be controlled to an extent using [[weather-controlling machine]]s. Precipitation affects a Sim's [[mood]], and Sims will often have [[want]]s or [[wish]]es of seeing certain types of precipitation. Some life states, such as [[PlantSim]]s, will benefit from precipitation, while others, such as [[SimBot]]s, are negatively affected by it. Although precipitation is largely benign and harmless, some forms of precipitation can kill Sims if they are heavy enough, or if Sims spend too much time outdoors. Sims are safe from all forms of precipitation while they are indoors.
 
Removing her skeletal appearance using cheats or mods results in a Sim that resembles the Grim Reaper{{Vgversion|TS3:SN}}, or a light-skinned woman with long red hair and green eyes{{Vgversion|TS4:PS}}.
