Help my main character suddenly died
« on: July 30, 2012, 12:09:23 PM »
My Cersei died suddenly, she was young adult after drinking young again potion few days ago. Now it says resurrect  her by making Ambrosia. I got no one with the skills apart from her, that's ok I can teach someone. But how do I resurrect her with Ambrosia? she is in the urn for God's sake, she can;t eat it can she? I did not save for a while and I really want her back. Please help. I read somewhere that someone who has a 10 logic skill can take ashes to science lab and resurrect her, her husband has it but no option is coming up. Everyone is crying :S

I assume that Cersei had a good relationship with her husband? If so, in a few days, he or another of Cersei's friends should get an opportunity to take Cersei's remains to the science lab. Cersei will not be resurrected, but will be a controllable ghost.

If you're happy with her as a ghost, there you go. If not, you can make some Ambrosia and have her eat it to revive her to an actual Sim. The recipe costs 12,000 without any rewards/other perks, and you also need a Deathfish and a Lifefruit. So, level 10 cooking, level 10 fishing, and level 7 gardening.

If you are playing this file for the HOF, it is game over.  If you are playing it just to play it and write a cool story, then turning her back to life is ok.  Make sure her tombstone/urn is on your lot.  In a few days she should appear as a ghost.  If you have the ambrosia made and ready invite her, (invite guests to meal) to eat the ambrosia.  This will return her to life but she may not have the memories or relationships she had before. 
What?  Grannies can't play games?
I speak perfect Nooblik, (and some Simlish)!

I got Ambrosia recipe and Cersei knew how to make it, only needed ingredients. Now I need to improve all the sims. Yes her and her husband had amazing relationship. I really want to bring her back as a Human, well she was a Vampire. There was a wedding coming up soon and I just built them Haunted Mansion and have not even finished decorating it. :S Thanks for the help.

Long time will pass before someone will improve enough to bring her back, does it matter? No I am just playing for fun, not making any stories yet. She was my first character in Sims 3 and reall want to hold on to her.

If she was a vampire, I'm guessing she died of thirst?  Do you have a saved back up file from before she died that you can use and prevent her from dying?  Another idea I just had is that once she's a controllable ghost, she can make her own Ambrosia.  She will retain her skills when she's brought back at the Science Center and make sure you have the Life Fruit and Deathfish available.  In that case, you just really need to wait for the opportunity to come for the Science Center.  It doesn't have anything to do with the logic skill, either.  Anyone in the household can get that opportunity as long as the slot for special opportunities is vacant on the opportunities tab.

Yup, what Pam and others have said. Also, you don't necessarily need level 10 fishing for deathfish - as long as you have a sim who can fish with live bait (I forget if that's level 5 or 7, but it's in the guide), you can catch some angelfish with alley catfish (which can be purchased from the grocery store), and then send them to the graveyard at night with the angelfish to get the deathfish. So, just keep that special opp slot open for one of her survivors, have a sim or 2 acquire a sudden interest in fishing and gardening (maybe even Cersei herself if the "oh my ghost!" opp appears sooner rather than later), and you'll get her back...if I'm reading this right, she'll be back as a vampire ghost, not human, but my understanding is that you can cure that for a couple thousand simoleons either at the hospital or the science center (not sure which). I don't know if vampirism can be cured before she eats ambrosia though, as my only foray into sim vampirism also ended tragically and I didn't continue with the file, but maybe someone else has experience with that.

Yeah, you don't need level 10 to catch a Deathfish.  It's listed as a level 10 fish, but it's possible to catch them before that. 

I haven't brought a vampire back to life, but I suspect the resurrection has to come before any vampire curing can be done.  It would be interesting to find out otherwise, though.

Thank you all for your replies.

Cersei is my most improved character and her gardening and cooking are level 10, also she had Ambrosia recipe in her inventory when she died. I was foolish enough to let her thirst go red and she probably died of thirst just shy of opening fridge for plasma juice.

I have one Teen sim who is fishing level 7 but haha going after curfew to cemetery not gonna be easy :) but he is ageing up very soon.

As for Cersei I don't wish to cure her, she is more beautiful as a vampire and also I find it easier for her since she is a rock star and starts her life later during the day, I like her having vamp;ire vigour.
She has come back as a vampire ghost yes, but what concerns me is that I only saw her once. Maybe because they have a huge mansion and I have 5 other characters to take care of I have not seen her. Most concerning also is that "Oh my Gosh" option is not coming up and considerable time has passed since she died ( I mean sim days)

I got good news. I sent her teen girl to explore catacombs to find a life fruit tree. Well, she did not but when I looked her backpack few days later to sort out the mess, I found a Ginnie lamp!!!! :)) hahaha are not I lucky? no fuss needed Cersei is back to life and carried on like nothing happened.

Only thing is she lost her job, but I found her a new one since I was fed up being a rock star and did not have guts to quit. Second is on a left hand side of the screen where there are all sim avatars displayed, she is no longer at the head of the family, not not even close to her husband's. Instead a new edition (her son's wife) is above her. Does this have any relevance of her baing back from dead.

She was probably brought back to the beginning of the life stage she was in when she died.  I'm glad you got her back.
