~ Fixed a small tuning error with the Vampire package.
13th February 2025
~ A tiny update to the Vampires package to hopefully prevent the ability to buy The Ultimate Tome on CC objects if they’re not tagged correctly. Please do let me know if this issue persists if you were affected by it.

It’s Spooky Season! 🎃
Now I don’t normally do much for Halloween since I don’t celebrate it personally. However, this year, I do have a little something up my sleeve to celebrate the season.
With the Werewolf pack, Maxis added a lovely lot of Lore to the occults; including Vampires and Spellcasters. It gives more of a history between the three species and I’m here for that!
The downside is, you can only learn this Lore if you’re a werewolf; so vampires and spellcasters can’t learn about it. So that’s where Occult: Lore & Order comes in!
- Lot51’s Core Library ~ This is used for the Vampire package to add interactions to the computer and bookshelf.
🧛Vampires🧛
➡️The mod edits the Vampire Lore books to add some new notifications. These new ones are only available, however, if your Vampires have gained the new Vampiric Vision trait. This trait can be gained by simply reading the vampire lore books; the same way werewolves earn the Lunar Epiphany perk.
➡️ There’s also a new Vampire Lore book; Operation High Fang, which is unlocked at the same time as the Ultimate Tome. This contain further information on the plan to improve the vampire’s image. This book can be purchased both on the computer and on the bookshelf, exactly the same as the others.
➡️ All these notifications tell the same story as the werewolf ones, but from the vampire’s perspective. What that means is, they’ll be slanted more in favour of the vampires.
🧙Spellcasters🧙
➡️ I’ve created three brand new Magic Tomes containing historical texts. Spellcasters will need the Insightful Eye perk in order to be able to read them. These books can be purchased at the Wands, Tomes, & Familiars stall in Casters Alley. They will be randomised, just the same as the spell books.
➡️ Volume 1 is available to Spellcasters ranked Acolyte and above.
➡️ Volume 2 is available to Spellcasters ranked Adept and above.
➡️ Volume 3 is available to Spellcasters ranked Master and above.
➡️ These volumes will contain the same Lore as the werewolves, but slanted more in favour of the Spellcasters.
This mod overrides the following files:
Vampires
book_VampireLore_Advanced
book_VampireLore_Beginner
book_VampireLore_Intermediate
book_VampireLore_UltimateTome
loot_VampireResearch_Notification_ReadBook
loot_VampireResearch_Notification_UltimateTome
Spellcasters
purchase_MarketStalls_Magic_Wand
witchPerks_Open_2A_InsightfulEye
Therefore it will conflict with any others that do the same. If you DO find any mods that conflict with these, let me know and I’ll see what I can do!
There are two files: one for Vampires and one for Spellcasters. They can be used together or independently. Naturally, the vampire package requires the Vampires pack and the Spellcaster package requires the Realm of Magic pack.
The mod is currently in:
~ English (by me)
~ Russian (by Shani_k)
~ Spanish (by MrFralien)
~ Dutch (GothiqueAngel)
~ Portuguese (Hatsune)

If you have any problems, please head over to my Discord server and I’ll do what I can to help.
None of these mods are required for Lore & Order to work but I highly recommend using them to enhance the lore and gameplay around the Occults:
Vampire Magic by Zer0
Mooncasters by Zer0
More Dormant Occult Traits by baniduhaine
Werewolf Bloodlines by baniduhaine
Vampire Bloodlines by baniduhaine
I hope you enjoy this little mod. Happy Spooky Season! 🎃
