10 Extremely Rare Video Game Perks You Didn't Know Existed
7. Pyromaniac - The Sims 3
One of the things that Sims 3 does better than other entries in the franchise is character traits. The game offers a huge selection of them, bigger than any other Sims title, and each one can give your Sim a truly unique personality.
This said, not every trait your Sims can obtain is visible. There are actually several hidden traits that your characters can receive during gameplay, and one of them, Pyromaniac, can even grant your Sim the ability to control fire!
To get the trait, your Sim has to successfully seduce a firefighter (or a genie if you have the Showtime expansion) and then have a baby with them. The child will be secretly born with the Pyromaniac traits, giving them incredible fire-related powers.
Despite looking like regular Sims, Pyromaniacs can start fires with the snap of their fingers and survive in fire for longer amounts of time. They can even transform any fruit into a flame fruit that will restore their energy when eaten!
They also get a kick out of watching the flames they start, so both you and your Sim can feel good once you unleash their destructive powers onto your unsuspecting neighbors!
