3. Welcoming Dorothy Gale to Wicked
Dorothy Gale: An Essential Character
No story about Oz would be complete without Dorothy Gale, the narrative’s central figure. Although she plays a minor role in Wicked, her pivotal moment comes toward the end when she ultimately defeats the Wicked Witch of the West.

4. Recreating Shiz University

To reenact university life for your characters, they will need an appropriate backdrop to study in. In Wicked, the characters attend Shiz University, where you can easily introduce the educational setting by using Hogwarts School by PlumbobKingdom. While it may not directly mirror Shiz, this elaborate build offers classrooms, a cafeteria, and more, creating a fitting environment for your Spellcasters.

9. Expanding the Wicked Cast
Integrating All Wicked Characters
To bring the full richness of Wicked to your Sims 4 adventures, it’s essential to incorporate other key characters such as Prince Fiyero, Boq, Madame Morrible, The Wizard of Oz, and Nessarose. Their unique narratives contribute to the rich tapestry of the story. Catpanda2002’s Gallery pack effectively captures the essence of these characters but requires a substantial investment in Sims 4 packs—26 in total.
