Chief of Mischief Aspiration Guide

For Sims who want to rule the world… one prank at a time!


What Is It?

This aspiration walks your Sim down the path of chaos, pranks, and sabotage. It’s all about causing trouble, laughing maniacally, and levelling up your Mischief skill — though keep in mind, being mean does not build Mischief.

Aspiration Reward Trait: Tormentor

Once completed, your Sim gains the Tormentor trait — allowing them to sabotage almost anything, including objects and other Sims’ best efforts!
Perfect for public enemies, pranksters, or chaos-loving legacy heirs.
