GUIDE: Palace de Legba Cemetery

There are many Sims who have come and gone since the start of the Voodoo Vampire Legacy, most of which are buried on the grounds of the Palace de Legba. There's not enough information archived about these Sims to create individual profiles for each of them, but they did play parts in the overall story of the Legacy de Legba, so I wanted a place for them here on the blog.

I am not likely to update this page as the cemetery grows, as I hope any Sim to be buried on the grounds from here on out will be already documented on the site.

Without further adieu, here's a quick guide to the Sims currently resting in the grounds of Palace de Legba...

SECTION I: GROUNDS OF HONOR

This section of the cemetery, nestled along the front porch of the palace, is reserved for those who served the legacy and the coven well in life.

Savanna Ito

Savanna was an early member of Papa Legba's coven. She was loyal to Papa Legba, despite not caring for his demeanor or plans for world domination, and was often seen at family events. After Papa Legba was ejected from the palace, Savanna remained loyal to the legacy, and thus to Prince Ixie. Even so, Papa Legba remained friendly with Savanna and continued to act as a vampiric mentor to her. She died of sun exposure shortly after converting to Ixie's sect of voodoo.

Graham Engel

The first Sim ever converted by Papa Legba. Graham was a devoted disciple and lover of alternative rock. He never did a single thing wrong by Legba, nor did he ever question a decision of the coven. He died by sun exposure during a gathering of the coven. Although no record of his appearance exists, believe me when I say he was cringe and you could tell he watched anime.

Camryn Schmid

Camryn was a scientist who was befriended by Blakeley during her time in Strangerville. After Blakeley's disappearance, Camryn happened to cross paths with Papa Legba, who saw her skillset and access to military secrets as an asset for the coven. He converted her, and she became an active member of the coven.

After being revived by Prince Ixie, Blakeley recruited Camryn to help her return to Strangerville and defeat the Mother Plant once and for all. They were successful, but Camryn died of sun exposure during the caper.

Jordyn Baker

Jordyn was the birth mother of Narcissus and one of Papa Legba's first victims. She was kidnapped at the same time as Cadence McCartney, while they were both visiting a Newcrest stripclub.

Unlike Cadence, Jordyn never stopped fighting back against Papa Legba. She resisted his advances and remained hostile toward all members of the coven. After giving birth to Narcissus, she became incredibly close with Cadence, and two eventually became lovers. This enraged Papa Legba so much that, as soon as Narcissus was old enough to be weaned from his mother, he murdered her by setting her on fire. Her body was buried in the basement of the palace, until Ixie took charge. When he built the palace cemetery, he had her body moved to Grounds of Honor.

SECTION II: CATTLE'S FIELD

This hidden section, locked behind a fence in the backyard of the palace, is where Cattle and Sim prey are disposed of.

Isaias Chong

Isaias was a casual high school friend of Ixie. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time and got hunted up by one of the palace Cattle. He now haunts the palace as one of our friendlier ghosts.

Liliana Anthony

Liliana was low-ranking military official stationed in Strangerville. She was sent to Forgotten Hollow to investigate the disappearance of Blakeley Keller-Hollow and Dr. Camryn Schmid. When she arrived at the Palace de Legba to question those who lived there, she found herself smitten with Papa Legba, and she gave herself easily to him. She lived many years as Cattle for the palace, and also as a nanny for Narcissus and Lulabelle. Prince Ixie hoped she would bear him a son so he could continue the Legba bloodline, but they were never able to conceive. She was drank to death by Papa Legba while he was visiting the palace for a family event.

Angelus Hudson

Angelus was a bonafide psychopath and wannabe serial killer who showed up at the wrong palace looking for her victims. A former stripper with violent fantasies, she took a job as a nanny for Prince Ixie's two young wards with plans to attack, rob, and eventually murder the family. Prince Ixie, however, had other plans.

Angelus was drugged and converted to Cattle after a mere two days living in the palace. She may have been an evil attempted murderer, but she was the best nanny the family ever had, and she served the family for many years. She raised Lulabelle and Narcissus through adulthood, and cared for Ixie's two daughters through their toddler years. She became a lover to Blakeley and an adoring caregiver to all children in the home. She always hated Ixie, though, and fought back against him every chance she got.

Nanny Angelus was "accidentally" drowned by Ixie while practicing voodoo. Her spirit is a constant nuisance in the palace.

Antoinette Lim

Antoinette was the first childhood friend made by Narcissus and Lulabelle. She was a rambunctious scamp who thought their weird vampire dad was SUPER cool. Papa Legba recklessly turned the irresponsible child into a vampire, and she died from sun exposure shortly after. Her ghost was banished from the palace for being too depressing.

Daichi Yamazaki

I honestly have no idea who this guy is. He just appeared at the palace one day, and Ixie drank him to death SO quickly for NO good reason. I sent his spirit back to the Netheworld pretty immediately because he made me feel bad.

SECTION III: THE ROYAL FAMILY

The frontmost section of the cemetery sits against the property line, greeting visitors and guarding the palace grounds. Only members of the royal family may be buried here, although being dead is not a requisite...

Papa Legba

Papa Legba is an immortal being, but tradition says that he was once a mortal soul made of flesh and bone. Perhaps there is a body here, perhaps the stone is but a carrier of his now immortal soul. No one knows for sure, but the headstone has a powerful aura and a haunting presence. I wouldn't go near it.

Blakeley Keller-Hollow

Blakeley has died twice, but this has always been her headstone. After her first death, before her spirit was given access to the earthly realm, Papa Legba spent many moonless nights mourning her loss at this graveside. Her sons grew up leaving roses for her and spending their days sitting on that bench, talking to her.

Blakeley is gone forever now, as her final wish was to be freed forever to explore the Netherworld. She is finally at rest with Death forever, as she always wanted.

Lee Keller

When Lee was a teenager, he had a very near brush with death. By which I mean, he literally burned to death, and was legally dead for several minutes. He went to the Netherworld and was halfway through being judged before Papa Legba yanked him back up to the earthly realm.

The family cannot remember which of these headstones is from Lee's near death experience, and which actually guards his body. His spirit has been released to the Netherworld, so there is no ghost to call forth, no way to check without digging the grounds up.

Ixie Goth-Hollow

Prince Ixie is an immortal being, but tradition says that he was once a mortal soul made of flesh and bone. Perhaps there is a body here, perhaps the stone is but a carrier of his now immortal soul. No one knows for sure, but the headstone has a powerful aura and a haunting presence. I wouldn't go near it.
