"Amidst the rolling, idyllic hills of Henford on Bagley lies a hidden world; one of trust ... and treachery.
Here, for the fortunate few, a life-changing prize of one hundred and sixty thousand simoleons awaits.
But be warned: in this game, not all is as it seems.
Neighbors might smile, whilst plotting your downfall.
Alliances might form, only to be shattered by betrayal.
A careless word could lead to banishment, or worse… murder.
Do you have what it takes to survive the lies, the mind games, the manipulation?
Do you have the courage and cunning to play...The Traitors?"
Applications now open for the very first edition of The Traitors: Sims 4. See below for instructions.
I’m super obsessed with the traitors (even applied once but I was rejected alas). For the unindoctrinated, it’s a mafia/werewolf type game where a majority of “Faithfuls” have to root out the “Traitors”, all while doing challenges to build up a prize pot, and when I made a cursory google of traitors+sims and saw @whyeverr ‘s reapers posts, I was hooked.
Anyway on to the important bits:
13 sims allowed
Young adults, adults and elders (diversity of age will be greatly appreciated, I’ll turn aging off so don’t worry your elders won’t all die haha)
maxis match/maxis mix cc please (disclaimer: I may change eyes and skin to better suit my style)
no occults ☹️
likes, dislikes, skills, jobs, the whole shebang is allowed and greatly appreciated, let your sims feel like whole people.
Outfits- one per category please. Make sure to choose an outfit in the formal category for your sim's first day and all their confessionals (it doesn't have to be formal wear)
in your post include whether your sim would like to be a faithful (normal player) or traitor (sworn to murder faithfuls) and why they would be best suited for said role.
there is a chance I may privately message you to make your sim a relative or friend to join them in the castle, so feel free to make one ahead of time, just don't post publicly so it's fun for everyone.
and finally do tag me in your submission
Submissions open until the 7th of October or however long it takes for me to get 13 sims!
ps: your sims won't actually die haha, they'll just be sadly eliminated from the game.
"Like my Pa always said; Desperate times call for desperate measures..."
This Sim was lovingly created for @plumbob-pudding's Challenge; The Traitors! ♡
➤ TESSA HAYES’ CHARACTER INFORMATION
NAME: Tessa E. Hayes
PRONOUNS: She/Her
AGE: 20 (Young Adult)
CAREER: Rancher/Professional Rider
HOMETOWN: Chestnut Ridge
RELATIONSHIP STATUS: Single
SEXUALITY: Uncertain (But she hasn’t told anyone this yet)
TRAITS: *Rancher, Family-Oriented, Ambitious (Additionally the Animal Enthusiast and Perfectionist can be added if More Traits in CAS is in use)
ASPIRATION: **Championship Rider
*Don't own Horse Ranch? No worries! Just switch this with Loves Outdoors!
**No Horse Ranch? No problem! Just switch this with Country Caretaker!
THE STORY SO FAR: Tessa is the eldest child of seven (three boys and four girls all aged between Young Adult and Toddler) living on her father's ranch in Chestnut Ridge. Three months before Tessa came to learn about the heinous game taking place in Henford-on-Bagley, her father (Jackson Hayes) was eaten by a Cowplant, meaning Tessa was now considered the head of the Hayes household. Despite the sudden change, things were fine in the beginning; having worked on the family ranch since she could crawl, Tessa was able to take her expanded responsibilities of looking after the ranch, its animals and her siblings in stride. However, as several weeks passed, Tessa soon found herself struggling to make ends meet despite her hard work.
As if this amount of pressure wasn't enough on its own, the Hayes family faces the very real possibility of losing their ranch now that the legal ownership of the land is being questioned, leaving Tessa with a difficult choice to make. Either she can hope that she miraculously receives 150,000 Simoleons from the Penny Pixies or she can take a risk filled with lies, betrayal and a possible brush with death.
And since it doesn't look like she'll be hitting the 'motherlode' any time soon, Tessa's only choice to save everything she holds dear is to roll the dice and hope she has what it takes to survive The Traitors.
THERE'S NO PUBLIC DOWNLOAD FOR TESSA RIGHT NOW, BUT I WILL UPDATE THIS POST IF SHE DOESN'T MAKE IT IN TO THE CHALLENGE OR IF SHE'S ACCEPTED AND THEN ELIMINATED! ♡
➤ IS TESSA GOING TO BE FAITHFUL OR A TRAITOR?
Tessa was designed with the intention of filling a Traitor role!
(But this can be 100% changed if the challenge has too many of those! ♡)
Why is she suitable for this role? Because the looming threat of losing everything she holds dear to her means she's willing to do absolutely anything it takes to avoid a negative outcome, even if it means going against the strict moral code she usually follows.
She's not necessarily a cold-blooded Sim and doesn't find any delight in the idea of backstabbing others but her hyper-fixation on saving her family's ranch clouds her judgement and causes her to act in ways she normally wouldn't - fear tends to do that to people who are faced with an impossible scenario.
Under all the fear and stress, Tessa is usually a friendly, supportive Sim with a genuine warmth she shares with others, but that type of person has no place in a game like this, do they?
Her appearance is also intended to be misleading. At a passing glance, Tessa looks like a typical young lady you'd find on any ranch with a pretty face and a charming smile. But under all those loose layers of clothing, she's as strong as an ox (thanks to all that ranch work) and is as equally stubborn to boot. Tessa tries to keep her physique purposely covered up with loose/baggy clothing because who would honestly expect this darling little ranch girl to be built like Adonis?

🍾 Camilla Soriano 🍾 for @plumbob-pudding's The Traitors!
Born the eldest daughter to wealthy Tartosiano vintners, Camilla Soriano was raised to believe she’d inherit their vineyard—and fortune. But when her parents announced their imminent retirement and named Camilla’s prodigal younger brother their heir instead of her, her entire world shattered. Knowing it was only a matter of time before she was ousted by her vindictive sibling, Camilla made up her mind to get her own vineyard on her own terms. But land isn’t exactly cheap, and neither is building a business from the ground up, and Camilla knew she’d need funds—and fast. After hearing of a reality TV challenge in Henford-on-Bagley that awarded a hefty 160,000 simoleons to the lucky winner (or winners), Camilla decided to make her bid for the prize. Being as naturally competitive and talented as she is—including at sniffing out secrets—she’s aiming to be one of the Faithful to best utilize her strengths. But will the temptation of being the sole winner and having all that money to herself, especially when she needs all the financial help she can get, lure her to switch sides?
It’s time to find out on this season of The Traitors!
More information below the cut!

FUN FACTS
Born and raised in Tartosa, so Tartosiano is her native language. However, she was taught Simlish from a young age and speaks it fluently.
While she’s never lived anywhere but Tartosa, her wealthy family takes frequent vacations (and has since she was a child) so she’s been to a lot of different places.
Her immediate family consists of her father, Emilio; her mother, Viola; her younger brother, Dante; and her younger sister, Renza (“Ren”). Her maternal grandparents, Francesca and Lorenzo Cantore, also live at the vineyard with Camilla’s parents.
Despite seeming very self-focused, she has a soft spot for Ren. She dotes on her, and Ren adores her in return.
Ren is 20 and in university studying to be a journalist, and Dante is 26 and currently unemployed.
Camilla’s parents inherited the vineyard from Viola’s parents, and growing up Camilla was always told by her grandparents that she would inherit the vineyard one day—something her parents agreed to and never contested (until now). Emilio and Viola won’t tell her why they’ve suddenly changed their mind, but Camilla believes it to be because of her mother’s favoritism of her only son.
Most of Camilla’s experience working at the vineyard was marketing, but she knows how to cultivate grapes and make wine as well.
Hii quick question about submissions for The Traitors, will the game be set in current times? I have a character idea that wouldn't really work outside of the 21st century, also, are we allowed to submit more than 1 sim?
Yes the game would be set in modern times, I suppose if it works, you can have your character be a quirky, loves historical living type person? And yes of course, the more the merrier
