I know I’m being anti-fun and a wet blanket about this but -

While I find “if not friend why friend-shaped” about cute but dangerous animals to be a fun meme, I increasingly react with knee-jerk negativity to “if evil why hot” because while it’s not that serious when applied to fiction there is an extremely worrying real trend of people who think of themselves as progressive and enlightened who equate physical appearance to morality.

Lifespan (accessible vers.)

Have you read the Premise of his sandbox already? The basic Setting Info? If not, please click here! You should read them first!

Since the Great Reveal, Humans have developed expanded lifespans. This is believed to be due to acute exposure to magic in high concentrations during the events. Following a short period of illness, most found themselves with additional resistances to certain disease types and ailments; healing and recovery of physical injuries and ailments, by comparison, take less time. The improved resilience alone immediately opened up new medical possibilities in terms of treatement and surviveability for those already suffering from conditions, disorders and other afflictions caused by changes in the body.

In general, Humans now live approximately twice as long on average.

Extended lifespan puts Humans on par with many other creatures in society, and has profoundly affected quality of life in areas like education, career possibilities, and family; as well as other areas of societal structure and foundation.

Here is a list of some races and their general lifespan averages, for comparison. This data is still in the early stages of assessment, and considered to be skewed greatly due to lack of official documentation and much of the evidence being currently unverifiable. The ranges listed here all considered to be approximate.

In Years

Humans: 170-180

Demons (across many types): 250-500

Elves: 500-700

Vampire: N/A; there are few records for how long certain vampires have lived, or their causes of death

Orcs: 250

Dragons: 500+

Naga: 800

Fae: N/A; not much is known about the lifespan of Fae. There also seems to be a large difference between the handful of Fae who decided to stay behind after The Great Reveal, and those visiting from beyond the Veil.

"Chimera-Types" (Harpies, -taurs, Satyrs, Kelpies, Sirens, Kitsune, etc.): 700

Most other creatures hover at lifespans between 200-400 years **NOTE: There are direct correlations between magical potency and rate of reproduction, as well as lifespan and rate of reproduction. Races that tend to live longer have very low rates of reproduction outside of medical assistance, which is heavily regulated.

pastel ui mod for sims 4 (wip)

hey all 👀 while I haven't finished this UI mod yet, I want to make it available to use while it's still a work in progress, instead of waiting until it's finished like I usually do with big projects like this.

This mod is only accessible if you're a free and/or paid member of my patreon, and will be available to download when it's fully finished for anyone who are not members. You don't have to be subbed to any tiers in order to access it (can just join as a free member), though any support would be appreciated 🥰💖

Setting Info (accessible ver.)

[IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN KNOWING MORE ABOUT WHAT LIFE IN THIS UNIVERSE IS LIKE, THIS IS THE RIGHT PLACE! WHAT YOU'LL FIND BELOW ARE DESCRIPTIONS OF THINGS PEOPLE ARE USED TO SEEING AND INTERACTING WITH IN THIS SETTING.]

Every Day Life

a summary

Obviously, culture is different across locations and people, but this is going to be a broad stroke sort of description centered mostly on the Big City that is the main focus of the sandbox. For a more in-depth look at "other places" and general culture, feel free to click the links at the end of each section below.

OVERVIEW

Day to day life for most is a mix of technology and magic present in almost every major city and accessible when interacting with public-facing tools and inventions even if not owned privately. Interactive holograms, clothing and material charmed for durability (or simply made of more durable materials) abound, though some come with a cost that isn't always accessible. Potions are regulated in a similar manner to medicine depending on the effect. Generally, financial class can be determined by where a person lives and the degree to which technology is present in their private life. Magical ability also plays into personal comfort, as sometimes capability with magic can make up for more expensive comforts in one-off circumstances.

Most of the persisting world infrastructure is modeled on pre-existing Human standards, though some things are augmented to take into account changes resulting from the The Great Reveal (what people call the event involving the merging of planes and large influx of magic and magical creatures to Earth in 2014). The event was not altogther a peaceful one, and there was systemic damage to cities and civilized areas that had to be rebuilt. Many major cities are unrecognizable from previous skylines. There are new islands, fault lines, mountain ranges, and some ecosystems have been forever altered for both better and worse due to the influx of magic and its effect on the earth. There are many locations that have still not been explored to the fullest, even if the most threatening dangers have been subdued; doing so is quite a lucrative (albeit risky) career path.

In general, buildings and locations are human-sized; more often than not, non-humans Glamour themselves when out and about for the convenience of others (certain body heights and shapes are outlawed in public, for example). This goes doubly or triply for slaves while out in public. There are some locations, districts, neighborhoods and grounds that are large and/or cater to the natural sizes of some creatures, such as demons and weres (those with 'blood curses'), but they and their perimeters are clearly marked and cost is certainly a factor in occupying these coveted spaces. It's very expensive to commission a building for these purposes, so many of these places are leisure resorts or businesses that cater to peoples of specific race or culture, to boast comfort and accomodation. (However, there are regulated limits for these as well, depending on certain factors like occupancy numbers, potential for collateral damage, etc.). While there are exceptions for calamitous events and self-defense, the cases in which someone could get away with this (especially in a public space) is extremely rare.

Due to the influx of population of other races and peoples to Earth during The Great Reveal, cities often have "Upper Levels" or "Islands" added to them to accommodate more people. These are floating districts that are akin to suburbs; they house some of modern architecture of the age in the form of homes, apartments, parks and office building. The style of these buildings are more modular and glossy. Actually owning real estate is a matter of wealth or extraordinary luck, and owning a home rather than staying in a massive apartment building is a slightly lesser flex.

Slaves and services rendered by them (under the eye of watchful masters) are pervasive, especially in the upper and lower most echelons of society. They are a class defined (using that term loosely) by four circumstances: 1) those captured during The Great Reveal, proven to have had intent to cause harm to the planet and its citizens during that time, 2) off-spring of those creatures, 3) those who "agree" to enter and be registered as slave status voluntarily, (unfortunately, this often includes children whose parents or guardians abandon or sell them), and 4) unprotected illegals; for these reasons, it's fairly rare to see Humans sold or traded on the market. They represent amassed wealth at least and are symbols of status at most. The acquisition and distribution of them are regulated, though not much else is (regarding personal treatment). Many fill service jobs and service families and estates, and usually regarded as an invisible part of the backdrop of life. They are a very controversial topic, of course, and they deserve their own post. It should be noted however, that worldwide, slavery systems are sometimes coded differently socially, and occasionally this causes culture clashes.

There's no shortage of vices to be found, of course, and the integration of magic and tech has been the catalyst for some interesting engineering with just about anything that can be imbibed. Clubs are lucrative, especially for elitist Masters who want to mingle with like-minded people and drown themselves in decadence while they flaunt their status. It's possible to find ones for any sort of theme or vibe. Some leisurely retreats are in fact segregated depending on the services that they offer, as there are some intoxicants that are either too potent or deadly for Humans to consume.
