Goth Boy is a Goth who prefers to stay hidden in his misery and dark solitude. He is cynical, pessimistic, often depressed, and refers to life to be as bleak and meaningless as his soul. Throughout the MySims series, Goth Boy serves as a poet, a finance advisor[1], a mini-game and festival host, the owner of a tattoo parlor, a Turkey on a Fork vendor, and a Specter Squadron pilot.

In other games[]
- Goth Boy appears in The Sims 4 as one of the rare MySims trophy that can be collected by players. His description reads: "Meet Goth Boy! Nothing makes him feel warmer than wrapping himself in a cloak of emotional darkness. He loves writing bad poetry and hates his job at Turkey-on-a-Fork. Wait a second...is "Goth" even still a thing?"
- Goth Boy's trophy appears again in The Sims Mobile as an heirloom charm.
Trivia[]
Development[]
- In an exclusive MySims walkthrough video with executive producer Tim LeTourneau, Goth Boy's profile shows his real name to be Herman.[2]
- However, there is no mention of his first name in the actual game.
Inconsistencies[]
- In the MySims intro, Goth Boy has Buddy's voice and the red part of his hair covers his right eye. In the actual game, as well as all the other games he appears, he has Poppy's voice in a low pitch and the red part of his hair is covering his left eye.
- On his MySims Agents concept art, Goth Boy appears to have a tattoo of a Z on his upper arm, but he does not have it in any of his appearances.
- However, he mentions Justice is working on a tattoo design for him in the game.
References[]
