To suck the life-force from innocent Sims...

[Syera]

Someone and I were discussing The Sims 2 and Stargate SG-1.  She jokingly suggested that Maxis should make a Stargate EP so that our Wraith sims could feed on other Sims.  I told her it might be possible to for a modder to make a Wraith option.

So, could someone make a mod that would add the option to Wraith other Sims to the pie menu?  In a nutshell, it should drain a Sim's energy motives and take days off their lives (a day every five seconds, perhaps) and give them to the sim doing the Wraithing.

Now, an SGA Wraith generally feeds (or Wraiths) a person by using organs located on the palms of their hands to suck the life out of the person through their chest (silly, I know).  I'm not sure if there are any appropriate animations in TS2 - perhaps the vampire neck-bitey animation could serve as an analogue?

I'm not sure if this would work, but if it did, I think a few nutty SGA fans would be very pleased.

Would it work to use another hack such as the infamous Puppy Killer to change the length of days left for both victim and Wraith? You could choose any sim you wanted as the Wraith, and any interaction you wanted as the cause for the change..... again, just a temp. fix while you're waiting for an actual Wraith-ish hack.

Well, yeah, it would work, but it wouldn't be near so much fun. 

I forgot to mention that the Sim doing the wraithing should have his hunger meter fill up.

Couldn't the aspiration sucking-up thingy be adapted for this?

The Wraith don't use vacuum cleaners to feed.

Shaklin has a mod called Vampir "Extension" + VampireHunter-Mod / Vampir Erweiterung + VampirJäger-Mod it does roughly what you want (has multiple options). The only problem is it uses references to vampirism. You might be able to do something with it.

With the addition of a few other mods, I just might.  Thank you for the suggestion.

The animations for any kind of vampiric feeding are presently lacking.

Yes, it is. It is also a most non-awesome hack and it shouldn't be in your game.

I live for the non-awesome life lol.
