The Sims 4: Enchanted by Nature whisks players away to the whimsical new world of Innisgreen, where Sims can live out their days as magical fairies surrounded by nature and fairy dust. Like other occult life states in the game, fairies unlock special ranks, abilities, and hidden traits, but leveling up can take significant time. Thankfully, Sims 4 Fairy Cheats let you skip the grind by instantly boosting Fairy XP and earning Ability Points to explore the Harmonious or Discordant paths of fairy life.
This guide will show you how to unlock Fairy Abilities quickly using cheats, how Fairy XP works, and how to reach specific Fairy Ranks in The Sims 4.
How Fairy Abilities and XP Work in The Sims 4
When a Sim becomes a Fairy, they gain access to unique powers and interactions. However, they start at the lowest rank, called Faint. To unlock more Fairy Abilities, they need to earn Fairy XP, which raises their rank and grants Fairy Ability Points used to purchase powers.
Here’s how the progression system works:
- Performing Fairy interactions earns Fairy XP.
- Fairy XP determines your Fairy Rank.
- Higher ranks grant more Fairy Ability Points.
- Players need a total of 23 Fairy Ability Points to purchase every available Fairy Ability.
Fairy Ability Points are permanent once earned. Even if you reset your Sim’s rank, the Ability Points stay unless you deliberately refund them.
While 23 Fairy Ability Points unlock all current abilities, Sims can keep gaining Fairy XP beyond Radiant rank to earn extra points, letting them try different combinations or save points for future abilities.

How to Become a Fairy
There’s currently no publicly known cheat code to instantly transform a Sim into a fairy. Instead, Sims typically become fairies through in-game actions, like completing parts of the Fairy Stories aspiration or using mods that add transformation cheats.
How to Enable Cheats
Before using any Fairy XP or Ability Point cheats, you must enable cheats in your game:
- PC/Mac: Press CTRL + Shift + C (or CMD + Shift + C on Mac) to open the cheat console.
- Console (PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Series X|S): Press all four shoulder buttons at once.
Type the following command into the cheat console:
testingcheats onYou’ll see a message confirming that cheats are enabled.
Remember: Enabling cheats on console permanently disables Achievements or Trophies for that save file.
Cheat to Gain Fairy XP Instantly
Unfortunately, there’s no direct cheat for adding Fairy Ability Points alone. Instead, you gain Ability Points by earning Fairy XP. The cheat to set Fairy XP directly is:
stats.set_stat rankedStatistic_FairyOccult_FairyXP [number]Replace [number] with the exact amount of XP you want your Sim to have.
Note: This command sets your Sim’s total XP to the new number—it doesn’t add to the existing value. For example:
- Setting it to 0 puts your Sim back at the Faint rank.
- Setting it higher boosts them instantly to a more advanced rank.
Fairy XP Cheat Codes for Specific Ranks
Here’s how much XP your Sim needs to reach each rank in The Sims 4:

How to Refund Fairy Ability Points
If you want to reset your Fairy Ability Points and reallocate them differently, The Sims 4 offers a special in-game option:
- Summon Mother Nature.
- Purchase the Fairy Ability Refund Potion for 20 Fairy Dust.
Using the potion will refund all spent Ability Points, letting you redistribute them to try new abilities or pathways.
Harmonious vs. Discordant Fairies
While earning Fairy Ability Points, players can choose between two hidden paths:
- Harmonious Fairies focus on nurturing plants, animals, and helping other Sims.
- Discordant Fairies specialize in mischief, manipulating objects, emotions, and causing chaos.
Each path unlocks unique abilities and reward traits, but both require progressing through Fairy ranks and earning Ability Points.
If you want to give your Sim these reward traits instantly without completing the aspiration, you can use these cheats:
- Harmonious Fairy Trait:
traits.equip_trait LightPath_LightPixie - Discordant Fairy Trait:
traits.equip_trait DarkPath_DarkPixie
Change “equip” to “remove” if you want to remove these traits later.
Fairy Activities and Aspirations
To progress as a fairy, your Sim can:
- Throw Fairy Dance Parties: Throw 3 Fairy Dance Parties at a Fairy Home to help complete the first stage of the Fairy Stories aspiration.
- Visit the Mossveil Fairy Hub: Travel to this special location in Innisgreen and interact with it at least 3 times to advance your aspiration.
- Use Fairy Dust to enchant items: Another aspiration step involves enchanting 3 objects using Fairy Dust.
Currently, there’s no known cheat code to directly add the Into the Everdew trait. Players earn it naturally by completing the first stage of the Fairy Stories aspiration.
Ailments and Abilities
Currently, no cheats exist for directly adding or removing Fairy-related ailments. All ailment cures and inflictions must be performed via in-game abilities or potions.
Tips for Using Fairy Cheats
- Always save your game before testing cheats, in case you want to revert changes.
- Remember that on consoles, enabling cheats will disable Achievements or Trophies for that save file.
- Fairy Ability Points don’t decrease even if you lower your Fairy Rank with the XP cheat. You’re safe experimenting with different ranks!
