Even after his passing, Captain Whitaker still watches over the pets of Brindleton Bay… and the humans he once adored.

Sims can receive a curse from Captain Whitaker if they're:

Mean to Cats & Dogs (scold, yell at, scare, rude introductions...) -> Chance is 40%
Mean to Sims with "Friend of the Captain" trait -> Chance is 60%

Using the "Ask for Captain's Blessing" from Captain Whitaker - The Good Luck Pup will make you a friend of his. You'll receive a special trait that will protect you from all his curses, even after you become enemies, or he's no longer there...

Curse buffs don't expire, but they can be removed by pleading (read on)

Sims can receive one of the three curses:

Curse of the Sunken Ship

Because Captain died in a shipwreck, swimming is much more dangerous for Sims with this curse.

Whenever they swim, they'll very likely receive this buff that lasts 20 minutes:

If they don't get out of the water, or at least move to the shallow water before the buff expires, they'll summon the grim reaper and become a ghost.

Even if they made it out of the water just in time, they'll pass out for a while.

Mermaids, ghosts and Servos don't get this curse.

Curse of the Rising Tide

Upon receiving this curse, the Sim's bladder need will drop to -97... Hopefully they can make it to the toilet.

Then... once every few hours, they'll get a 60-min buff that increases the bladder's decay rate:

There are three such buffs:

The Stir -> 60% chance
Slightly boosts the decay rate
The Surge -> 30% chance
Decays even faster
The Crest -> 10% chance
If they don't use the bathroom, they'll pee themselves twice

Vampires and servos don't get this curse.

Curse of the Wagging Tail

Sims will receive a +200 playful buff that lasts 2 hours. They're immortal while the buff's active, but they'll laugh so hard that they'll summon the grim reaper and become a ghost, if they don't find a way to lift the curse before the buff expires..

This will ignore MCCC's settings and any no emotional death mod you might have, unless that Sim is immortal or normally not allowed to laugh way too hard.

Child Sims and servos will not receive this curse.

Whenever you receive a curse, you'll be notified:

Remove the Curse

You can do it by:

Pleading to Captain Whitaker's grave, which is found at the top left of the Deadgrass neighborhood in Brindleton Bay (the one with the lighthouse):

Go to the graveyard and you'll find an "unknown pet's grave":

Click on the grave and plead... about 3/4 through you'll receive a notification telling you Captain is listening. Don't cancel the interaction. Wait until it finishes.

Successful plea gives the Sim a buff that suppresses their autonomy of mean interactions toward cats and dogs:

In the following days, if the Sim doesn't behave and get a curse again, Captain Whitaker will not forgive them if they plead:

And will give the Sim a buff that prompts any mean, evil and uncompassionate Sims nearby to insult them, so they can have a taste of their own actions!!

Alternatively, Captain's Friends (those with the friend of the captain trait) can ask Captain to remove the curse from a Sim that's at the active lot:
