Best Traits for Sims 4 Fount of Tomarani Knowledge Aspiration

This aspiration is a unique one because most have a bunch of traits and lot traits that can help. However, this one is super random and doesn’t have any skills for your sims to gain. The only trait I can think that may be helpful is the loves outdoors trait because your sim will spend a lot of time outside!

Stages of the Aspiration

There are three levels of the sims 4 fount of Tomarani knowledge aspiration to play through. Each has simple tasks to complete so it’s an easy one to finish. When you finish each task you’ll get satisfaction points to spend!

Introduce yourself with this introduction one time and you’ll be good to go!

  • Meet a Sim with the Child of the Village Personality Trait

Finding a sim with a specific trait can be annoying, but I found the sim you need to find! There are probably other sims with this same trait, but this one is easy to find. So, you’re looking for Vanesha Cahyaputri. This sim is a young adult who is a property owner at the Taka Soi 15 lot.

You can find this sim by heading to that lot in the top neighbourhood and going to the upstairs lot to visit their home. If you rent the bottom apartment they’ll be easy to find because they’ll be your landlord!

  • Collect Unique Tassels

There are so many collections to find in The Sims 4 and with For Rent we got the addition of tassels. These are decorative tassels that you can display! There are a few ways your sims can get these.

The first way is to find the same market tent at the night market where you purchased the shirt int he second stage. Then you click on it and choose purchase goods instead of buy local attire. You’ll scroll through their items and find any tassels they have. I was able to purchase 2 of the 3 I needed, you’re looking for different coloured tassels!

Another way you can get tassels is by exploring Tomarang’s Cave or sneaking into the tiger sanctuary at night. You’ll enter these locations and get action cards to answer and you may get a tassel this way too!
