Charlie had heard about the alien zombie Cexavu loose in Mountain Lake. He suspected that Gran Caran had something to do with the alien's appearance.
Charlie was concerned that the villagers could be in danger. The zombie was lurking in parks and local hangouts.
Cexavu was even trying to attack the youth of the town! Good thing he wasn't ever successful. He seemed to get painful headaches any time he tried to bite a victim.
But no plant was safe from his veracious appetite! Well, except for the potted, rubber plants. Those decorous items truly confused Cexavu.
Despite the the failed zombie attacks, Charlie was afraid the village couldn't count on Cexavu's continued bad luck. The alien zombie was relentless, hobbling quickly from one hot spot to another!

Charlie spoke to Gran. Should they set out armed pea shooters around town? Gran sighed and shook her head.
Gran: Charles, go beard the alien in his lair. Wait for me there. I'll bring a Purge elixir and one last potion to douse the scoundrel with, as a warning to play nice or leave!
So Charlie came face to face once more with the alien who had abducted him and performed fertility experiments! How things had changed. The alien, now a zombie, was more pitiful than powerful.
Charlie could easily confront this enemy. After all, he'd already challenged criminals, the Grim Reaper, and even Gran Caran ... and survived!
Finally the gypsy herself showed up. She wasted no time, but threw her Purge cure at Cexavu.
The zombie tried to fight back!
But he soon lost all anger. A confused alien stood before them.
Gran: Use the second potion, Charles. Now!
In a strange haze of smoke, a totally new alien incarnation materialized!
And despite the familiar clownish nature, Charlie understood at once that there was something tragic about this joker! Deeply, deeply tragic. Such sadness!
Cexavu: I come in peace! I promise!

As Gran and Charlie left Cexavu to his own devices, the tragic alien opened up his laptop in search of a friend.
Unfortunately for him, the computer shorted out immediately. There would be no dating site for Cexavu tonight!
But the Maker took pity on his lonely state and used NRaas magic to repair the device. Use it wisely, Cexavu!

Behind the Scenes: The Maker Speaks
I couldn't find a Tragic Clown elixir at the store, so Charlie actually threw a Procreation elixir at Cexavu. And then I used NRaas to give him the Tragic Clown Moodlet.
But after having the Procreation elixir tossed at him, not only did Cexavu and Charlie become instant Friends, Cexavu gained the temporary "A Twinkle in the Eye" moodlet, which increases the possibility of twins and triplets!
For a brief moment, I considered giving Cexavu the Unexpected Weight Gain moodlet as well. But I just couldn't bring myself to do that to innocent babies. ... Imagine Cexavu as a father!
Charlie was concerned that the villagers could be in danger. The zombie was lurking in parks and local hangouts.

Charlie couldn't help but cry. Poor, poor alien clown! Charlie never knew clowns could be so unhappy.
Gran: Let this all be a warning, Cexavu! You are not the only one around here with power! No more bullying! Learn from suffering and trials, and maybe one day, you can become a better member of the sim race!
Cexavu: I come in peace! I promise!
