The Coven Challenge
Expansions needed: Realm of Magic, Get Together and Get to Work
Your Story
Ever since you were a child, you were obsessed with the idea of having magical powers. For as long as you can remember, you’ve dreamt about casting powerful spells, brewing enchanted potions, and even flying on brooms! And not just that, but your dream extends to others. You are compelled to meet others who are like minded, true kindred spirits! Wouldn’t it be wonderful to whield such power with an entire coven full of witches?
As we all do, children grow up, and become adults. We find ourselves spending less time working towards our dreams, and more time just working. As it stands, you find yourself working in a dead end job, for someone who does not appreciate your imagination. It seems like all you ever do is work a job you hate, come home, go to sleep, and then repeat the whole dreadful process over again.
Then, one night, after a very stressful day at work, you find yourself at your wits end. As you sit on your porch, watching as the moon escapes through the dense tree cover of the empty lot next to yours, you see a bright flash. Curiosity gets the better of you, and you go to investigate. There you find an old woman, wearing strange clothing. She holds a stick in one hand and a broom in the other, but those were not the strangest things about her. She was followed by a glowing orb with wings!
Your first instinct to was to run, but that is quickly diminished by her kind smile as she spots you. She tells you of a magical realm full of spellcasters possessing the powers that you once dreamt of!
In that moment you made a decision! You will quit your dead end job, and move to Glimmerbrook, the town which resides next to the Realm of Magic! There you will build the coven you have always dreamt of, and find a way to support yourself by applying your magical craft.

Rules
- Your journey begins in CAS. There you will create your sim. Make them look however you like. They can be a spellcaster or an ordinary sim, and they can have any traits you like. The only rule is that they must have one of the Realm of Magic aspirations; Spellcast and Sorcery or Purveyor of Potions.
- Move your sim into one of the Glimmerbrook lots.
- You cannot use any cheats unless you need to reset your sim.
- If you began with an ordinary sim, have them find a sage that will change them into a spellcaster.
- Once your sim is a spellcaster, you are ready to begin building your coven by creating a club.
- Only members of your coven can be part of your household, though they are not required to be part of it.
- These are the club rules:
~You will only be able to invite 5 members at first, but the entire coven must have a total of 8 members (including yourself) by the end of the challenge.
~The Coven actives should be as follows:
-Use Cauldron (under the Hobbies tab)
-Cast Spells (under the Mischief and Mayhem tab)
-Tend Garden (under the Outdoor tab)
-If you have, “Seasons,” you must also set Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter Activities, coordinating with whatever season you are currently in (IE: If it is Summertime the club activity will be, "Summer Activities." Then when it becomes Fall, change it to, "Fall Activities.").
-If you plan on having a rival club, you may add the different Social Activities (Be Mean or Be Mischievous to rival club).
-If you would like to ban activates, you may pick and choose what they are.
- Other than the activities, you are free to customize you club anyway you’d like. Have them wear matching outfits or just street clothes. Have a clubhouse or meet at different places every time, ect. The choice is yours!
- Because you are fed up with the society rat race, and as an added difficulty, you are not allowed to have a job unless it is a gardener or an odd job. You will need to then save enough money to open a retail magic store.
- You may use the bb.showhiddenobjects cheat to stock your store with all things magical. Brooms, crystals, voodoo dolls, cauldrons, you name it! Just as long as they are all magical in nature.
