All Familiars, Their Abilities And How To Get Them | The Sims 4 Guide

A complete guide to familiars from The Sims 4, including how to get a familiar, familiar abilities, and all the familiars you can have. You will need The Sims 4 Realm of Magic expansion pack installed to have access to familiars, and only Spellcaster sims may have familiars.

There are 11 familiars in total and they include the sixam owl, fairy, raven, bunnerfly, glowfrog, snub-nosed leaf bat, hexdoll, dragon, phoenix, skull and velid.

If you have The Sims 4 Cats and Dogs installed then you can make your pet cat or dog a familiar.

I bought realm of magic like a year ago and have probably spent about 30 minutes using the gameplay. This makes me want to go play

I haven't really played with the familiars - I certainly didn't realise they could save your sim from death! Will have to check them out. Thanks for the info - enjoyed it.

I like the Bunnerfly because its vampiric style reminds me of Bunnicula from the fun kids' book series of the same name. As for the fairy, there's a reason it looks the way it does. It's clearly an homage to the fairies in the N64 era Legend of Zelda games like Navi, Tatl, and Tael.

Your description of the evil bunny thing made me realize how niche my tastes are 😅 my parent sims are based on fictional characters, one who has bunnies, and another who's a necromancer. Their son has the bunny familiar which could not have been more perfect 🥺

I like to think that the fairy is a nod to Navi. One of the popup text from the fairy starts with "Hey, listen..." That's my head canon. It's a fairy from Kokiri Forest.

The dragon is good for angry Sims. It helps to heal negative moodlets faster.

They help you win duels. That's helpful.

Anyone who has played Ocarina of Time feels a certain way about the Fairy familiar.

2:48 Every time I see a light with wings all that pops into my head is “HEY LISTEN!” 🤣😭

My sim died while mixing a potion once... I am so lucky he had a familiar there to protect him.

The skull is my absolute fav and I was prepared to have to spend ages searching in the shops for one but they were in stock first try 😎💅

[katarinasmith]

Great video! I loved the Harry Potter references! I’m a huge fan! I love your videos so much and your personality! Keep up work!

[kevinpeters]

The fairy gave me “HEY! Listen!” vibes

[wildebloem]

Love your game play tutorials, the explaining how n what. Only recently started to play with spell casters. Your video helped a lot, really didn’t know that the familiars can save the sim !! Thank you 🥰🧙🏼‍♀️

[gretelbee]

I love your videos! You need more subs!

[FernandoW]

I like the veild because I love the card game, I use a mod to allow adults to play

[lillySims-ifgh]

Thank you for this. I wasn’t sure if there was something I was missing but it’s nice to know that actually they are just pretty useless over all. I did like the Cats and Dogs overlap where you can send them to forage. Thanks for the info

The best career in the sims 4 is magic

Once you learn the spell call duplication you will never have to go to work you will never have to farm anything you don't need your green house your money tree and those stuff

Go find the golden frog from the jungle temple and dup it in 1 click $30, 000 instantly and your bills everything you ever want will be yours in just a few click

Infinity money just repeat the duplicate and sell

The more expensive the item the better more money

[marvinbrauer]

So funny “these are useful and that’s where you’d be wrong’. They’re cute pets❤

[PedroWills]

If you bind a cat/dog as a familiar, will it behave as both a regular familiar (give the moodlet and save from death) and a regular pet (you know, do pet things)? I know that the answer should be obvious, but you can never truly know with this game lol. I also couldn't find the answer to this anywhere.
