The Night Finds Its True Heirs: Clan Aspirations Mod - Definitive Release
The whispers in the dark have grown into a chorus. What began as a personal dream years ago, and took its first steps with early releases of four, then nine clan legacies, has now fully awakened.
I am beyond thrilled to present the DEFINITIVE, COMPLETE VERSION of my Clan Aspirations Mod for The Sims 4.
This is more than just a mod. It's a systemic love letter to the rich, gothic-punk tapestry of Vampire: The Masquerade, woven directly into the heart of your Sims gameplay.
What Awaits in the Shadows?
Your Kindred are no longer just vampires. They are Brujah iconoclasts, Malkavian prophets, Tremere regents, and Tzimisce flesh-crafters. This mod grants them the legacy they deserve.
- 17 Unique Clan & Bloodline Traits: From the fierce Banu Haqim to the haunting Daughters of Cacophony, every bloodline has a foundational identity.
- 26 Deeply-Themed Aspirations: A full path for each of the 13 core clans and 4 rare bloodlines. This includes dedicated tracks for the artistic Toreador (Painter, Actor, Musician, Writer, Dancer) and the distinct families of the Hecata (Giovanni, Samedi, Nagaraja, and more).
- Meaningful, Powerful Rewards: Completing an aspiration is a true saga. It grants unique Clan Reward Traits—powerful passives that transform your gameplay—along with Vampire Power Points and buffs that make your Kindred feel unique, powerful, and truly rooted in their lineage.
This mod was crafted through countless hours of using the Mod Constructor, testing, dreaming, and an incredible amount of community support.
