In The Sims 3, what is the name of the time-traveling character?

In The Sims 3, the time-traveling character is Emit Relevart.

Emit Relevart appears in The Sims 3: Into the Future, the game’s eleventh and final expansion pack. He arrives in a time portal and introduces Sims to Oasis Landing, a futuristic world that can be visited from the present-day neighborhood.

His name is a playful clue: “Emit Relevart” is “Time Traveler” spelled backward. The character also evokes Doc Brown from Back to the Future, especially through his eccentric inventor persona and role as the guide to a machine-based time-travel adventure.

Players can use the Time Portal to travel between the present and future, meet descendants, and influence different possible futures. The three wrong options—Miles McTime, Doc Chrono, and Tim Trotter—sound like plausible time-travel names, but they are not characters from The Sims 3. Emit Relevart is the canonical answer.
