Prize: Dragons
Where do I find them? In the Pet store (if you haven’t built the pet store yet you can still get the dragons once it is built)
Cost?
- There are two 1 star dragons- one costs 50,000, the other costs 25 SP
- There are two 2 star dragons- one costs 250,000, the other costs 25 LP
- There are two 3 star dragons- one costs 50 LP, the other costs 100 LP
Is the prize worth it? Yes it really is! It is unusual and cute, why wouldn’t you want one? Once you have brought a dragon it will appear at the house, near the mailbox as an egg: 
You can move it into the house, the dragon takes a day to hatch: 
Once it has hatched it will fly around the house, like dogs and cats it will find simoleons and LP:
A sim can interact with the dragon to increase the dragons happiness, they can praise or feed them:
You will now be able to complete the Saved by the Spell Discovery Quest

I am on the book of spells quest but am also on two an a half sims quest at the same time, is this a problem? And also I have just done ‘cast random spells’ and was wondering do you
have to have the pet store, and does the dragon cost money?
It’s not a problem
You need a pet store to get the dragons yes and on the post at the bottom it lists how much the dragons cost.
Thanks! Just need to save up for the pet store now…
I just wanted to ask you “if I start -during the 1st time I have to distract a mummy -the 2nd one, will it still be counted ?Or generally can I do them at the same time or is it something else wrong and I can’t do the for a reason ?I haven’t been at that stage yet so that’s why I ask you .I hope you understood what I wanted to ask you because my english are not so good .if you haven’t understood please ask me at the comments to explain it again !!
No, I have been informed that it doesn’t work
Hi, I was wondering if you don’t finish the wizard quest in time can you buy a dragon with real money on specials?
No you can’t buy items that you could have one by completing quests from the online store anymore
None of my sims will go visit the wizards house. What should i do?
Can they not access the crystal ball? Move it into an area in a house that has space around it
Hi I am 84% through this quest and how many times do you have to distract a mummy? Or is mine just glitching?
3 times
No, you have to distract 3 times
Hi I finished this quest on time and it said I can have a dragon. I looked in the pet store but the dragon isn’t there… Please help 😦
You will need to contact EA to see if they can help you with this technical issue, sorry!
I have completed my quest, but it looks like it will only let me have one wand podium in a home, even though I can keep buying them. Is there a way to unlock that limit? I have a couple of sims that I would like to be able to have one in their home.
Same, I can’t place another one, some people have said you can but I can’t, so maybe you can’t?
Idoing the quest book of sell I did the talk to the wizard for 3 hours get a dragon or egg. WHERE IS IT?? I didn’t waste all my time to end up with nothing.
in the pet shop
Hi, I was wondering, how many pet dragons can we have on 1 house? And is there a way to get 6 dragons in 1 house? I want to buy all the 6 various dragons and have it in 1 single home if possible. I’m doing the quest now, but want to know in advance.
2 as that is the limit of how many pets you can have in one house
Hi, another question, can pets visit other houses just as Sims can visit other houses?
Technically speaking I just want all 6dragons to be in 1 house. So I was wondering 2 pets in each hkuse. And the other 4pets visit the main house = 6dragons at home.
Havent gotten my pet store yet. But I’m at the toddlers quest soon enough. Wish me luck! 🙂
No they can’t sorry!
Pets have to stay at their own house
I will be finished with this very long quest in about four hours!
I am so excited to get a pet dragon. 🙂
This blog is very helpful. I like seeing what action comes next in the quest. Thanks!
That’s good! You’re welcome!
How many lps costs the last step “talk to the wizard (3h and 10m)”???,because I want to pay it ,because i don’t have much time left until the limit
It would be 3LPs
Hi, I have completed this wuest and now my podium is gone ? Do I have to buy a new one now ? If so thats annoying 😩
Yes you have to buy a new one
I have finished the quest but my sims can’t go to the wizards house and there is space around the crystal ball
If you have finished the quest you can’t go back to the wizards house.
i didn’t finish in time.. can i still have a pet dragon? 😦
Sorry but the only way to get them is by completing the quest on time
Can my sims go to work while this task is being completed? I read something at the start about everyone staying home?!
The rest of your sims can, the one who is doing the task can’t until they are done.
Just want to mention that you can’t perform “distract a mummy” simultaneously, you’ll need to do them one after another. I’m on my first “distract a mummy” task right now and the other mummies won’t allow you to click on them.
Okay, thanks
Can i know how to act a couch?
Click on a couch and select the option
hii,Im doing the Book Of Spells quest right now and i dont have the magic podium in my inventory.ive checked everywhere for it. But it is still at the wizards house.
Have you done the goal to pick it up yet?
I already completed this quest and was awarded an owl. How can I get a dragon?
You get an owl if you complete the hobby in time, which means you would have already done the quest, if you didn’t do the quest in time you won’t be able to get the dragons,if you did they will be in the pet store.
I just read the book on the book shelf that gives u the clue and is 3 min and 30 min long so what do I do next???
It told you the answer, click on the door, select the answer it gave you and you will be able to open the door.
Can you pleaseeeee tell me what the clue to open the door is??
I’ve read the post,search for clue with the cat painting,i’ve done that. But then ‘search for 4 clue with 2seconds each’ that’s the bookshelves i guess. But i’ve done that and that should ‘tell me to search for final clue at 3min 30seconds’,that i can’t find!!!
The clue at the bookshelf talks about the book ‘The prestigious’… I don’t get it:( (i thought it’s arrange alphabetically bcos cat sitting on book..but that’s not the answer)) i’ve clicked everything,nothing is searchable at 3min 30 seconds … Can anyone just pleaseee tell me the answer for the clue to open the door pleaseeee
I don’t want to ruin it for other who want to work it out themselves, you need to read the book, that is on one of the bookshelves and that tells you the answer.
The wizard did not reappear at the end of the quest…is there a way to fix this glitch?

The wizard doesn’t give you a free one, you need to buy the magic wand podium from the Sorcerous supplies store.
I’m having the same issue, So, just to be sure, Even if you done the quest in time, you still need to buy it? Not free?
Yes you still need to buy it
I finished the book of spells quest but don’t see where I can start the other quest. Help!
What other quest? Do you mean the spell casting hobby?
Yes, this one too.. I already press start now on the hobby quest, then, where did it go?
You need to buy a magic wand podium from the sorcerous supplies store to do the hobby.
Can I do any of the steps in this quest ahead of the next step? Or do i have to wait for each step to go to the next task? … I think i don’t have enough time left 😦
The only one you can do early is reading the book
I am at the last step, time to talk to the wizard, but he hasn’t appeared in my home, he isn’t in the park, and he isn’t in his home. I have only 5 hours to complete this quest! Any ideas?
Is he not at any house?
I have only few hours left and I can’t complete the quest at time… If I but another ball and place in another house, will I be able to do the quest again?
No you can’t do the quest again unless you restart your whole game
Can anyone tell me how to complete the action to distract mummy. Everytime I gone back to view the progress, the action has been cancelled and I had to redo. Till now the action cannot be completed…
Don’t go there until the task is finished, that should work
Hi i finished casting random spells and then i tried talking to another sim but it wasn’t in the options
Have you tried with another 2 sims? Maybe adults.
Hi 🙂 thanks for the helpful website, I wouldn’t have been able to finish half these tasks without it.
I’m having a problem with the dragons tho. I competed the quest in time and checked the pet store but all I see are the cats and dogs for sale. Should I talk to EA about this?
You’re welcome!
Yes you should, they might be able to help
When I went to the wizards house all my horses transported there too I can’t get them back to the farm I have tried everything what do I do?
How strange, I think you should contact EA about this problem as I can’t fix technical issues, sorry!
HI first of all your blog is fantastic,it’s so amazing your only 19 . I just wanted to stay you can read the book early and click on your sim instead of using the crystal ball 🙂
Hi,
I completed the book of spells quest and it said I can do a flying broomstick hobby etc.. To get an owl. How do I practice flying etc…? Thank you
You unlock the spell casting hobby when you complete the quest, to do this buy a wand podium from the Sorcerous supplies store, once that hobby is completed you will unlock the broomstick flying hobby

Its hard to say, You may have to use a few Lps
Thank you! Now I know what to do. 👏👌😂😁☺️
Do you have to use the same Sim to complete all of the actions? I sent my Sim that got the magic wand initially to work and now I was wondering if one of the other sims could start working on the next task?
No, you can use different sims but most tasks have to be completed when you receive the goal so can’t be started early
