OH MY GOSH, THAT WORLD IS BEAUTIFUL. Even BEFORE you find the secret portal, Glimmerbrook (I think that was what it was called?) looks fantastic. Beasts.
And how could I get familiars, CAS, and is that wands AND hand magic I see?
@SERVERFRA sims can live in the 5-lot world, glimmerbrook, but they can't officially live in the main lot in the magic realm (however, gurus did say you can put a bed in there for them and they basically wouldn't have to leave the whole time you played them. just know, a cheat is needed to build on the lot in the magic realm)

We need to find familiars in the world, and yes, that's wands AND hand magic, confirmed.

I'm excited! It looks really cool and better than I had thought it may be. I wonder if other sims from other worlds (neighborhoods) will show there thru the portal too or if it will be just your sim that you bring there? I can't wait to find out more and even more can't wait until it comes out! Did not expect such cool familiars to be added for the witches!
Does anyone know if there will be added benefit for having other game/ expansion packs? Like in Sims 3 how if you had Supernatural and Seasons you got the Weather Stone? I'd love to be able to have a cat or dog as a familiar since I have the Cats & Dogs pack...

On the Dutch official The Sims website it says that spellcasters will be able to choose a totem animal! Among them are dragons and fairies!
Btw, did someone notice that snake in the last shot ^^
Hopefully that’s a sign that we can extract snake venom for a spell.
I hope my sims can live in the magical world. Didn't see much new hairstyles oh well.
I read that they cannot technically live there, but you can use the bb.buildmode cheat and add a bed the huge magical mansion so they can sleep there if you wish.

Yes, and you can send the off to search for crystals and such to make potions!

I wonder, if you have Outdoor Retreat... what if you just come and plop a tent and fire pit/grill down there to live there? Brew a few elixirs to fill hygiene and, as long as there's a public toilet, you're good to go.
I wonder how familiars will work. They seem permanent this time, which is awesome. All of my families have at least one cat and one dog, so I wonder how marking them as familiars will work? Will it involve a spell or will it be a simple as clicking on them and selecting the option? Will we be able to buy the other types mentioned in the official description or do you have to cast a spell? Can you have more than one?

I'm wondering about the cats and dogs as familiars part too.
Since familiars don't take up a household slot and don't have needs, they're different from pets and I wonder if you'll have to choose for a cat or dog - will it be a pet or a familiar?
As for other familiars, one of the Gurus said on twitter that you'll have to find them in the world, but there might be a purchase option too maybe in one of the stalls in the Realm.
According to another tweet from a Guru, you can have as many familiars as you want but you can only have one summoned/visible/active at a time.
Can't wait to find out more about them though, especially the way some of them connect to Voidcritters (apparently some of the critters are inspired by familiars )

I think rebuilding the mansion as a sort of boarding house/magic school would be really fun for story telling! Plus you could basically live there if there were beds and a kitchen.

I wonder if they get social needs up with a familiar. If not, I might have to leave the cat as a pet since my witch really doesn't socialize with other sims. She'll get a crow instead as a familiar.

Were crows one of the options? Sims should be able to fill their social need with their cat or dog even if it's their familiar. I've never checked, but I'm pretty sure we can do that now. As for the new ones coming with the pack, I'm not sure, but I would think the answer is yes.
Well I do cause in my experience they're very quick at shooting down hard no's. So although I don't think we'll have a zombie lifestate, there will be fun curses to play around with and perhaps one of them causes a temporary zombie-like state or brings out zombies, bit like during full moon in Supernaturals. Who knows, I'm curious.

Me too! I've seen only great things so far, and can't wait to have those and use them in different buildings.
It would be great if there were also new glass roofs of that kind, but maybe those are only made for those world decorative objects.

It's been confirmed!

If they're anything like the lackluster Mermaid Powers in Island Living...then idk.

Not really.
