Its too bad you can't seduce him like other NPCs.

I think you can. There was a video from TheSims (YouTube) in where a girl flirted with Grim.

When Late Night patch came out, Grim Reaper became less sociable with Sims in general.  He very rarely does anything with anyone for more than a few moments and it's impossible to have babies with him anymore.

However, I still have him saved from the first month I ever played TS3  I was originally going to use him instead of Artie for my Dynasty but I was told to make a YA Sim instead of use one I had.

Okay. That explains everything.

I tried to shift+click him to move him in but "Trigger Age Transition" popped up.

Seems that the problem was that when people would add Grimmy to the household, he'd quit his job and there was nobody qualified to take over.  So when Sims died in that game, they'd be stuck as a ghost at the spot they died while their family would get stuck in a perpetual state of death shock because there was nobody to come and collect them.  Also, Grimmy has no skin color, and when he'd start breeding, this would lead to corrupted Sims and corrupted save files.  While I have no experience with this, you may want to be careful aging him up, too.  If he dies of old age...who's going to collect him (or anyone else for that matter)?

You might be able to find a copy of Grim floating around the net somewhere (I believe they've all been purged from the Exchange), but I wouldn't recommend using him.  It would solve the "no one to reap" glitch, but he still won't have a skin tone.

The fact that the game would be in a corrupt state when reproducing with The Reaper Himself seemed irrational, but it makes sense. Just for fun, the other day I aged Grim up and turns out he's a Young Adult. I'm afraid to age him up again, because of him reaching the elder stage and that means no more reapin' (and I've never played an elder sim in my decade of simming)

There is thread somewhere, where Metro had done an experiment on Grim.  When there is no Grim, there are sims laying around everywhere, pretty weird thread.
Is it true that cannibals don't eat clowns because they taste funny?

So my elder sim's imaginary friend "Cuddles" has some how turned human and walks around when he pleases. I'm not sure how this happened because Chris barely even played with him! Although Chris seems rather excited to see him..
Just click on the picture to look at the video (it'll take you to photobucket.)

Oh, that is odd!  I'm so glad sims don't walk like that on a regular basis.

It looks like the outline of a gnome to me, it must be a glitch or something. Could you click on it?

The fact that the game would be in a corrupt state when reproducing with The Reaper Himself seemed irrational, but it makes sense.

It's not so much the reproducing part that causes the issue, as it is that he has no skin tone.  This in and of itself doesn't necessarily cause an issue, but trying to reproduce the effect does.

There was a thread a while back that was related to Late Night where one of the NPC bouncers in town had jet black skin.  It was an incredible looking effect, and a lot of people wanted her in their game.  However, someone took a peek at that Sim's actual coding and learned that her skin tone was corrupted:  she essentially didn't have one.  Before she made it into circulation, someone installed her in their game and found that this corruption did nothing but get worse and caused severe graphical issues, especially after she got pregnant.

An identical situation happens with Grim.  If a child inherits it's skin tone from him, the part of the file that contains the information for this Sim becomes corrupted...and as we all know, corruption will spread like the bubonic plague.

Personally, I think William Fagmann is Grim's child. He's so dark and grim never takes him when he dies. Yes, I know he has the Unlucky trait, and Grim says "Your antics amuse me and others, so I'll let you live" (or something like that.)
But, William is so dark, he could be a child of Grim.

Children of Grim are much darker, as hard as that might be to believe.  ;)
