In The Sims 4 Werewolves, Greg is a reclusive lone wolf who is hostile and unable to communicate with other sims. There is a lot of mystery surrounding where Greg came from, which has been spread further by The Sims 4 guru team. To learn more about Greg in The Sims 4 Werewolves, including where to find Greg, his backstory and what he looks like in human form, read on.

Where to find Greg

Greg lives in a ramshackle trailer towards the west of the Moonwood Mill map. You can initially access this location by travelling west of the lakeside peak which has a boarded-up entrance. The peak can also be travelled to, this is where you'll find Moonpetal flowers during a full moon.

You cannot interact or gain access to Greg's trailer and Greg is never seen in sim form. However, if you interact with the warning signs on his property he usually spawns outside his door.

Greg Lore

Much of the speculation behind Greg's origins were explored before the initial Sims 4 Werewolves release. Through item descriptions in the game, we can surmise that Greg is an incredibly ancient and powerful werewolf who was one of the original mooncasters. Mooncasters were magic users who transitioned into wolves to fight against vampires. Greg was once called Greggorius Lunvik, and was husband to the celebrated astrologer Avelina Lunvik, whose research into the lunar cycle greatly helped wolf-kind.

Through artefact descriptions, other information regarding Greg's backstory can be found. From the artefact 'Cowplant Taming Tablet' we hear tell of a sim called Yina Kia who was a dear friend of Greg and Avelina's and was killed by a moocaster's cowplant. Moocasters were magic users who opted to breed cowplants for combat instead of becoming wolves.

Through his diary, Greg speaks a little more about how his friend's death grievously affected him. From the 'Tamed Cowplant Jawbone' artefact, the words 'avenge you' are carved onto it, along with the unmistakable scent of Greg. Combined with the other artefact descriptions in the game, we can assume that the quest for vengeance led Greg down a dark path. Greg's struggle with his fury ultimately lead to his inability to shift back into human sim form.

Greg's Diary

To find out more about Greg's backstory in the game, it is possible to find his diary through artefact spots. Early in the werewolf ability tree, you will receive the option for enhanced smell and the ability to scavenge. Smell highlights points of interest on the ground, if you scavenge on these areas you'll receive a randomised werewolf artefact, one of which is Greg's diary.

For the ability to gain information from artefacts, you'll also have to unlock the dormant werewolf ability, 'Lunar Epiphany'. This can be unlocked by simply reading werewolf-related books and is a useful ability to pick up early on.

Through CAS cheats it is possible to edit and see Greg's human form. He appears to be an older gentleman with a traditional dress sense. Considering he is said to have been one of the original mooncasters, this isn't surprising.

To view Greg for yourself, enable cheats (CTRL + shift + C), press shift, and click on him in the game. You should have the option to edit in CAS as well as add him to your family if you wish.
