Declaring an enemy is easy! All you need to do is a bunch of mean interactions until you get the notification saying that you and the other sim despise each other.
Once that notification happens you’ll be able to click on the other sim and you should see declare enemy available in the initial menu.

The criminal career is a pretty easy one to level up in. For this career your sim will need to gain the mischief skill to get promoted, as well as do mischief interactions after work each day.

- Witness The Death of a Sim
This final stage of the sims 4 public enemy aspiration gets spicy. Your sim wants to witness the death of another sim! How evil!
To do this your sim needs to be in the same room when another sim dies and grim comes for their soul. I decided to head to the BFF household and trap them all in their pool!
The funny part was that since these were my sim’s enemies I could click on them as they died and choose sadistic glee. Plus, my sim got a +3 Happy moodlet for 2 days called Enemy’s Demise. He was very excited about this!
You can do this by killing sims in so many ways from feeding them to a cowplant to setting them on fire!
