Monarchs
Monarchs
Monarchs are your main focus in this mod, and you require a Monarch to use much of the mods features.
Monarchs are responsible for bestowing the in-game traits to other sims, such as; Crown Royals, Nobles, Heirs, and more.
They work best when paired with another sim who has been given the ‘Royal Advisor’ trait. (More information on Royal Advisors under the ‘Royal Advisors’ section of this document)
Monarchs also have a small career (a 10am-3pm rabbithole) available to only them, which can be found under the careers menu.
They also have a cute little custom plumbob with a crown, to make them feel really special!
other traits
other traits
All other traits in the mod can be given by the Monarch. With your Monarch selected, click on the sims you would like to bestow a title on. Choose ‘Titles’ and here you can choose which trait you would like to give the sim.
There are several other traits in the mod, including lower members of the Royal Family and noble titles.
Any royal can be sent to charity event rabbitholes, these provide fame and reputation (also available to nobility).
These traits can be added as club requirements if you have kept the file in the ‘Remove From Unwanted’ folder. (Overrides the 'clubs.club_tuning’ module.)
On a related note - you can also play through the ‘Missing Princess’ aspiration;
Your sim must meet the aspiration goals, including a few new features:
'Convince of Royal Blood' interaction
Reading the 'Royal Family Lore' book to gain the new skill of the same name
'Hold a Press Conference' event which will only become available once your sim is at the final level of the aspiration.
'Give Interview' to the journalists who attend the press conference.
'Podium of Truth', a new object specifically for the press conference
'Announce Self as Missing Royal', a new interaction on the podium of truth which will complete the events main goal.
(There is a cheat in the new settings menu to add the aspiration trait, as if you add the aspiration outside of CAS it doesn't add the companion trait... I don't know it's set up to work this way but it's very annoying)

change-able title
change-able title
In the buy menu there is an object called ‘[LN] Book of Bestowing Titles’. By clicking on this object your sim can choose their own title from dozens of options.
Please keep in mind that the game can take up to one sim hour to update a title.
There is also an option to remove titles which can be found on the object.
You can also make your own customizable titles, this is explained further in the ‘Customizable Titles’ part of this document.

customizable titles
There are several titles you can customize to whatever you’d like! This is not an in-game process and can be a little confusing for those who have never modded before, but I have written a tutorial which can be found here: TUTORIAL

How to Make Custom Titles for Royalty Mod (The Sims 4)
How to edit the custom titles
LOT TRAITS
LOT TRAITS
Royal Residence - Sims living on this lot will enjoy a happy buff trait and will also see tourists snapping pics of their residence from time to time!
No Royals or Nobles Allowed - Pretty self explanatory! Royals and Nobles will no longer spawn on this lot. (Will not work if they live on said lot).
heirs
heirs
Your Monarch can name an heir by choosing one of their Crown Royals or Royal Partners and navigating to the titles menu.
succession
succession
To officially ascend the throne, your Heir must host a Coronation Event where they will receive the crown in a grand ceremony.
How to Begin the Coronation Event:
If your Heir was named while they were a Young Adult or older, the Monarch must start the Coronation Event.
If your Monarch has passed away unexpectedly, the Heir can inherit the throne by speaking to the Royal Advisor.
Receiving the Crown:
Your Heir can now kneel to receive the crown in a new Coronation animation!
Simply click on the sim you wish to bestow the crown, using your Heir as your active sim.If you prefer to have your Sims stand exactly where you want them - You can buy the [LN_RM] Coronation Marker from BB mode.
Click on this floor object with your Heir as your active sim, and choose the sim you wish to bestow the crown from the pop up menu.Choose from six historical crowns—European, Russian, Korean, Egyptian, Byzantine, or Aztec—to reflect your ruler’s heritage.
Additional Features:
The previously used Coronation Podium now allows Sims to "Fantasize About Coronation" and manually apply any crown outside of CAS.
Newly crowned Monarchs can also Recite the Ruler’s Oath, marking their commitment to the throne.
regents
regents
If your Monarch is worried about passing before their heir is of age, they can entrust the role of regent to someone.
If they do happen to die before their time, the regent will automatically become active upon their death and have all of the power the Monarch did.
Once your heir ages up, they can inform the regent that they are ready to take the throne.
However, if the regent and heir aren't on good terms then the regent may very well choose to keep the throne for themselves!
Your heir will need to gather the support of the nobility in order to throw a coronation without the regent interjecting.
Be careful though, as feisty heirs may find themselves in the new tower object ([LN] Tower in the catalogue), thrown away to rot... or worse, go 'missing'.
inherited traits
inherited traits
Any sim born to a Royal or Noble will inherit their trait!
Here is a list of the partnerships which automatically pass down traits:
Monarch + Royal Partner = Crown Royal
Monarch + Noble = Crown Royal
Crown Royal + Royal Partner = Crown Royal
Crown Royal + Noble = Noble
Noble + Noble = Noble
Crown Royal + Crown Royal = Crown Royal
Any Royal + Peasant = Illegitimate Royal
diplomacy
diplomacy
Monarchs now have several new interactions on the ‘[LN] Correspondences Book’, to send Diplomatic letters to other monarchs.
It will take around a day to hear back and have the relationship affected. These will either be good or bad, and will affect both the Monarch’s relationship with the other Monarch, plus it will affect the citizens of both worlds.
Citizens interacting with a citizen from another world which has a negative diplomatic relationship with their Monarch will experience a penalty when trying to build the relationship, making it harder to get along.
On the other hand, a good diplomatic relationship will do the opposite.
Diplomacy relations are on a world by world basis, setting up the mod for some of the future features.
There are several diplomatic relations stages;
Great Relations
Good Relations
Neutral Relations
Poor Relations
Terrible Relations
royal advisors
royal advisors
Royal Advisors are the right-hand sim of your Monarch! They oversee taxes, abdication, succession & more!
To make a sim a Royal Advisor, your Monarch must choose the ‘Designate as Advisor’ interaction on the sim they wish to be their Advisor.
daily duties
daily duties
Your Monarchs now have the option to carry out daily duties to keep them busy and engaged with their kingdom!
How to Enable
Go to build/buy mode
Under the ‘Lot Type’ tab, navigate to the lot challenges section.
Here, you will find a new lot trait, ‘Daily Royal Duties’. Having this on your lot will prompt you every morning mon-fri to accept or decline daily duties that day.
To disable daily duties, simply remove the lot trait.
Designating Room IDs
There are three new rugs included in this update, [LN] Room ID State Room, [LN] Room ID Throne Room & [LN] Room ID Private Quarters.
These rugs, when placed in a room, will designate that room as one of the above rooms. Sims that visit your Monarch as part of their Daily Duties can be sent to any of these rooms of your choosing that you deem most appropriate for the visit (or for roleplaying).
Three interactions will be available on sims who arrive, to send them to the room of your choosing.
These markers can easily be covered by any rug in game.
Daily Duties
You will be randomly assigned a duty to perform that day ranging from solo tasks to sims coming to visit your Monarch. Solo tasks when completed will end with a pop up.
All duties either add or remove money from the treasury, soldiers to/from the military & happiness to/from the empire happiness.
Some duties require the use of other objects included in Royalty Mod, such as the ‘[LN] Correspondences Book’.
If you forget your daily task, you can click on your Monarch at any time and choose ‘Check Daily Duty’ for a reminder.
laws and fines
laws and fines
Monarchs can now pass laws by navigating to the ‘Laws’ pie menu when clicking on themselves. This will cause a menu to pop up and you can choose any law from this menu.
(If playing on a save from before the 2.7.7 patch, you will still see the Law Enforcer sim in your relationship panel. This sim is no longer used to pass laws and has no special interactions - they are however still loaded into the game as removing them would break the save.)
If your sim is caught breaking a law, for example, the ‘Outlaw Witchcraft’ law is currently in place and your witch sim is caught performing magic, then they will be reported! After about a day, they will receive their fine, which they can pay off either in full or partially through the mailbox.
These fines stack! If they are caught breaking the law multiple times, they will continue to get fined!
**Laws such as Dairy restriction and no magic will not show in the pie menu if you do not own the Cottage Living or Realm of Magic pack!
taxes
taxes
Your Monarch can raise or lower the taxes through their Trusted Advisor.
Raising taxes will give you an immediate payment as well as giving you a higher weekly payment, but will come at the cost of your Monarch’s reputation.
Lowering taxes will lower the amount you get weekly, but will positively affect your Monarchs reputation.
Taxes can be collected once every Friday from your Trusted Advisor.
If you are playing as a peasant, the lot trait ‘Peasant Home’ will spawn a tax collector every friday. Your peasant sim can pay him taxes.
(This is currently separate from monarch-raised taxes, but will be implemented in the future.)
regional royals & nobles
regional royals & nobles
Royals and Nobles will automatically receive a gameplay trait based on where they live!
This will be built upon in future updates to help the worlds feel more connected!
events
events
There are a few events your royals can hold!
Royal Audience - Citizens can come and express their concerns to the Monarch.
Royal Banquet - A more ‘royal’ way to hold a dinner party!
Coronation - Can be held to have the Heir ascend the throne.

Monarchs can enjoy a career open to them only, a small job which allows them to earn money doing their Monarch-ly duties.

Any Royal or Noble now has the option to make any Noble sim a Lady-in-Waiting!
These new sims can be ordered to follow your sims around, do their hair and makeup, make them tea and coffee, and have several new social interactions with each other.
To make a sim a Lady-in-Waiting, click on a Noble sim and navigate to the ‘Royalty Mod’ pie menu.
In here you will find the Lady-in-Waiting pie menu where you will see the interaction to make a sim a Lady-in-Waiting.
To have a Lady-in-Waiting change your sims hair or makeup, you can find a new seat object in Buy Mod: [LN] Styling Station.
There must be a sim with the Lady-in-Waiting trait on the lot for your sim to be able to click on the chair and choose the sim they want to perform the action.

**Do not make a sim a LIW during an event or club gathering.
correspondences
correspondences
There is a new item in Buy Mode, ‘[LN] Correspondences Box’.
Your Monarch will receive mail and gifts here once a day which will be sent to their inventory.
Envelopes in your sims inventory can be clicked on to show the option to open them.
After opening, your sim can read the letter inside, they will then receive a notification telling them that they can respond to the correspondence using the Buy Mode item, ‘[LN] Correspondences Book’.
After writing their reply, another notification will pop up letting you know that you can give these letters to a Lady-in-Waiting who will then automatically take them to the mailbox.
You can give them one at a time, or give multiple at once.
Your sim can also write correspondences to specific Nobles or Royals, give them to a Lady-in-Waiting and receive relationship points with the sim it was sent to.
reactions & introductions
reactions & introductions
Royals and nobles will get a disgusted moodlet when around peasants.
But Royals or Nobles with the ‘Good’ trait or ‘Beloved Monarch’ trait will get a happy buff when around peasants and then a guilty buff after being with them!
All classes of sims (except other royalty) will react to royalty when near them. Female sims will curtsy and male sims will salute.
This will only happen once every 4 hours to prevent it getting annoying.
Peasants can no longer just approach a Monarch and introduce themselves, they have a chance of success based on the Royals mood and their status.
Dungeon guard
Dungeon guard
Your Monarch now has the option to appoint a sim as a dungeon guard. You will use this Sim to enact punishments on your prisoner!
You can find this interaction under 'Titles'.
