- Not to be confused with Roomies household (The Sims 3).
|
The Roomies 2.0 Household is a group of seven Sims, living together in Apocalypse Isle, a Fanon neighborhood created by someone with too much free time. The family consists of the Hopeless Romantic Ashton, a werewolf, the Natural Cook (who can't taste any of his cuisine) Duncan, a vampire, the Kleptomaniac Quinlan, a human (once a ghost), the vegetarian twins Gwyneth and Gwendolyn, both fairies, the good witch, Cecil, and the bad witch, Selene.
Like the Drama on TV household, everyone in the household has a mutual dislike for Selene Cooke, just as Apollo Bloom is despised by everyone in the said household. Selene has no friends, though she is close to becoming friends with her sister, with whom she is only acquaintances.
