I removed Brant from the family of Sims. In his place I added Lilith, a Vampire Sim, to the family. Vampires are Sims that require a lot of attention due to the fact that they can't spend too much time in the sun. I remember once I had a Vampire Sim that went to work with a low Vampire Energy level, and when he came back, he burned to death. Ever since then, I've been too afraid to have Vampire Sims because I was afraid they would just die. I'm working on getting Lilith's Vampire points up to make her resistant to the sunlight.
