{{Ideology}}
'''Ideoligions''' are both a system of mechanics introduced by, and the primary focus of, the [[Ideology DLC]]. They allow colonies to introduce a variety of new restrictions and capabilities to change gameplay, as well as new interactions with other factions.
{{TOCright}}

== Type of ideoligion ==
Whenever you start a new game, you will see the Ideology selection menu once you've selected a world tile.

* '''Ideology system inactive''' - Disables most of the Ideology system. Player colonies and factions will no longer have any ideoligion. With this option, you can create any ''style'', or cosmetic variant, of building (click the circle icon in the [[Architect]] tab, right next to the search bar).
:However, some aspects of the ideoligion system remain. You can still assign a [[Leader]], and will have access to a funeral and 2 [[ritual]]s - a dance party and drum party.{{Check Tag|Verify|Extremely quick testing}} In addition, there will be 3 randomized [[relic]]s that you can search for.

* '''Create ideoligion (fluid)''' - Design an ideoligion that can change over time.
:A fluid ideoligion only has access to 1 [[meme]] at the start of the game, which cannot be a high impact meme. Otherwise, a fluid ideoligion has the same customization options as a fixed ideoligion. The difference is that a fluid ideology can change over the course of the game. As you gain [[#Development points|development points]], you can add / remove memes, and re-customize just about everything else.

* '''Create ideoligion (fixed)''' - Design an ideoligion with complete control.

* '''Presets''' - Use an ideoligion already created for you. Want to live under the mountain, but don't want to make a full ideoligion? Pick the "Mole people" preset. You will start with a Funeral and 2 other random [[ritual]]s, as well as a random [[relic]]. Other aspects of the ideoligion will also be randomized.
:For example, the "Classic-like" preset will have the following precepts:
<div style="column-count:2; width:600px">
* [[#Corpses|Corpses: Ugly]]
* [[#Insect meat|Insect meat: Despised]]
* [[#Marriage name|Marriage name: Usually man's]]
* [[#Eating nutrient paste|Eating nutrient paste: Disgusting]]
* [[#Physical love|Physical love: Free]]
* [[#Women's spouses|Women's spouses: One only]]
* [[#Men's spouses|Men's spouses: One only]]
</div>

=== Development points ===
{{For|a guide for how to convert a non-fluid ideoligion to a fluid ideoligion via save editing|Fluid ideoligion save conversion guide}}
Fluid ideoligions are mostly the same as a static one, but can be changed over time through development points. When you have enough points, you can reform the ideoligion. It costs 10 points for the first reformation, and increases by +2 per reform until a max of 20 points. You cannot "store" points; once you can reform, no more points are gained.

Development points can be obtained in the following ways:
* Performing [[rituals]]. Rituals will give a varying amount of points depending on if they are "anytime" rituals or "dated" rituals, how many rituals the ideoligion has and the quality of the ritual. If a ritual achieves a goal that awards development points (such as a conversion), both the points for the goal and the ritual are received in full. Anytime rituals (including funerals) give 1 point for a good outcome and 2 points for a great outcome.
Dated rituals grant more points the fewer rituals the ideoligion has, -as detailed below- however Funerals, Gladiator Duels, Blinding, and Scarification rituals '''''Do not''''' count for the following table.

Reformation allows you to add ''or'' remove 1 meme, ''or'' change the structure of your ideoligion. If you add a meme, you cannot remove / replace another meme or change structure. In addition, you can only add 1 [[style]] at a time. All other changes are unlimited.

== Forming an ideoligion ==
An ideoligion consists of many separate aspects to customize:

'''Primary'''
* '''[[#Structure|Structure]]''' - What deities (or lack thereof) that followers believe in. Examples include ''Abstract theist'', that "god(s) are formless and everywhere", or ''Christian origin'', which is closer to the Abrahamic religions of the west. Structure helps determine the randomized names and lore of your ideoligion. This is almost entirely cosmetic, but can add a few ritual options.

* '''[[#Memes|Memes]]''' - The basic beliefs of the ideoligion. An ideoligion with the ''Cannibal'' meme will definitely enjoy human meat. Each ideoligion can have up to 4 memes. Most memes do not add much on their own, but affect what precepts the ideoligion has and cannot have. Some memes have access to [[roles|specialists]].

* '''[[#Precepts|Precepts]]''' - What a follower's belief systems are. Precepts directly determine how colonists will react to certain actions. An ideoligion with ''Cannibalism: Preferred'' will have followers enjoy eating human meat. An ideoligion with ''Cannibalism: Required (Ravenous)'' will want to eat human meat for every meal.
:Certain precepts have statistical effects beyond mood. For instance, ''Drugs: Essential'' boosts drug crop yield, synthesis speed, and sell price. These tend to be locked behind their associated meme.

'''Secondary'''
* '''[[Rituals]]''' - Special occasions, from Dance Party to Animal Sacrifice to Funerals. Every time you do a ritual, you can end up with a good or bad outcome. Good outcomes will increase colonist [[mood]], and come with a special, defined reward. For example, a spectacular festival can give you a random recruit, or cause a [[gauranlen pod]] to sprout.

:You can increase the chances of a good outcomes by following the ritual's requirements. A funeral can be done without your colonist's body, but the quality will be increased if the corpse is buried.

* '''[[#Roles|Roles]]''' - Every ideoligion has a Leader and Moral Guide. From there, you can have up to 2 types of specialists. A Shooting Specialist will be great at ranged combat, but is unable to do many types of skilled work. Note that you can have as many specialists of a specific type as you want. For example, you can have 3 Shooting Specialists in a single colony, but cannot have a Shooting, Plants, AND Research specialist in the same ideoligion.

* '''[[Relic]]s''' - Ideoligions can have relics. Relics can be either Legendary [[quality]] weapons or specific types of items that serve no other purpose. Relics must be found from a specific, multi-part relic hunt quest, which can take many years. Having a relic present will cause a number of benefits.

* '''Buildings''' - Buildings used by your ideoligion: [[altar]]s, [[sacrificial flag]]s, etc. Largely used for rituals. Altars and the like will eventually be demanded by followers of your ideoligion in a temple room.

* '''Preferences''' - Ideoligions can prefer [[apparel]], [[weapon]]s, and [[xenotype]]s {{BiotechIcon}}, as well as venerate specific [[animal]]s. Colonists will like having/being around preferred items. Whenever a colonist will dislike a non-preferred item is dependent on the preference in question.

'''Descriptive'''
* '''[[#Styles|Styles]]''' - How buildings made by an ideoligious builder will look. Largely cosmetic. However, it interacts with the Diversity of Thought precept. If colonists are neutral or bigoted, then they will enjoy being near styles of the same ideoligion. If colonists appreciate Diversity of Thought, they will enjoy being near styled buildings that their ideoligion could not make. Certain styles will affect more or less buildings.

* '''[[#Cultures|Cultures]]''' - Roughly where your ideoligion comes from. Astropolitian represents those coming from space. Corunan represents [[New Tribe|tribes]] in general. Entirely cosmetic.

* '''Lore''' - A randomly generated description of the ideoligion, based off of memes, structures, cultures, etc. Entirely cosmetic.

* '''Icon / color''' - An ideoligion's icon is used whenever an ideology will be displayed. The color of the icon will be a preferred color for followers. Followers gain a {{+|1}} moodlet for wearing their ideology's color, or their own favorite color. All colors require [[dye]] and the same amount of dye.

== Certainty ==
{{Split|destination=Certainty|reason=Would benefit from having a space for Analyis and strategies as well as more displays of how different stats really affect conversion times. example strats: forcing crises of faith, stacking convert power buffs, gene modding the convertee to have the Kind and Wimp traits etc. Leave section here with summary, and a [[Template:Main]] link to the oage. redirect [[Conversion]] there too}}
{{See also|Conversion Power|Global Certainty Loss Factor}}
'''Certainty''' is how willing a colonist is to maintain their current ideoligion. Conversion attempts reduce certainty. Once certainty hits 0%, a pawn's ideology will change.
=== Reassurance ===
Certainty increases by a set rate per day, which is dependent on current [[mood]].
* 1% / day at 20% mood or less
* 2% / day at 50% mood
* 3% / day at 80% mood or more
Between 20% and 80% mood, certainty gain is linearly interpolated.
Certainty does not regenerate while [[deathrest]]ing.{{BiotechIcon}}{{Check Tag|What else?|What else pauses reassurance}}
The [[Moral guide]] of an ideoligion can also reassure pawns of the same ideoligion, which increases certainty based on [[Conversion Power]].
If a pawn is converted, then they will start with 50% certainty in their new ideoligion.
=== Conversion ===
These ways to lower certainty are all considered "Conversion". The certainty reduction is increased by the converter's [[Conversion Power]], and decreased by the user's [[Global Certainty Loss Factor]]. Conversion strength is then multiplied by relevant [[trait]]s. For example, an [[Undergrounder]] will be harder to convert from an ideology with the Tunneler meme.
* Pawns will naturally try to convert each other during day-to-day conversation. This is governed by the [[Ideoligion Spread Chance]], which is increased by the [[#Proselytizing|Proselytizing]] precept.
* The [[role]] of [[Moral guide]] has a "Convert" ability. This is the same as normal conversion, but done on command. This has a cooldown of 3 days.
* If a pawn is held [[prisoner]], you can set the prisoner to Convert in the Prisoner. If there is a warden of the selected ideoligion available, they will start converting the prisoner.
The certainty reduction of a convert attempt can be calculated as follows:
{| class="wikitable"
| '''Certainty loss''' = 6% × [[Conversion Power]] of the Converter × If Converter is [[#Moral Guide|Moral Guide]] ({{Good|x2}}) × [[Global Certainty Loss Factor]] of Convertee × Relic Conversion Power Factor × Trait/Meme Agreeableness × AI Storyteller's Low pop conversion boost multiplier
|}
*'''Relic conversion factor:'''
{| class="wikitable"
! Relic Conversion Power Factor
|-
| {{Graph:Chart|width=200|height=200|yAxisMin=|xAxisMax=10| yAxisTitle=Conversion Power Factor|xAxisTitle=Relics in Reliquaries (#)|type=line|x=0, 1, 3, 5, 10 |y1=1.00, 1.10, 1.20, 1.25, 1.30}}
|}
'''Other certainty reduction''':
These ways reduce certainty by a set percentage. Reduction is not (directly) impacted by Conversion Power or Certainty Loss Factor.
* [[Rituals#Conversion ritual|Conversion ritual]]. Requires a Moral Guide. An effective conversion ritual reduces certainty by 30%. A masterful conversion ritual instantly converts the user to the desired ideoligion. Poor quality rituals instead ''increase'' certainty. The quality of the ritual increases the chance of an effective/masterful ritual; quality is increased by [[Social Impact]] of the moral guide, among other factors.
* [[Crisis of belief]] is an extreme [[mental break]] which immediately reduces certainty by 50%. If certainty reaches 0%, then the pawn will convert to a ''random'' ideoligion - even if you've attempted to convert them to a specific ideoligion prior. Notably, crisis of belief is one of 2 mental breaks that [[prisoner]]s associated with another faction are able to go through. (Colonists who have been arrested can go through other breaks)
* A [[Rituals#Throne speech|throne speech]]{{RoyaltyIcon}} can convert listeners to the speaker's ideoligion.{{Check Tag|Verify|Detail, too}}
[[Children]]{{BiotechIcon}} are a unique case of conversion, as babies have no ideoligion and one is assigned to them once they turn 3. For a more detailed description of how the ideoligion of a child is determined, see the [[Children#Ideoligion|Children]] page.

== Structure ==
Choosing your structure affects which symbols the game uses for your ideoligion, and allows for the selection of some rituals that would otherwise require specific memes. It also influences some random generation options and flavor text but these can be overridden by player selection.

|}

== Styles ==
An ideoligion can have 0-3 associated styles. People belonging to that ideoligion will apply those styles when making specific items. Colonists will get thoughts based on the styles of the objects around them, depending on their ideoligion's [[#Diversity of thought|diversity of thought]] precept either for having surroundings match or not match their ideoligion. Neutral surroundings produce no thought. If multiple styles of an ideoligion affect the same object, left-most applies. Note that building appearance in the construction menu will be based on your primary ideoligion, but the actual building might be different if built by a pawn of a different ideoligion.

=== Style dominance ===
Pawns consider objects with style dominance within 27 tiles outdoors, or in the same room regardless of distance. An item is considered "uniform" if pawn's ideoligion can build it, and "diverse" otherwise, regardless of the actual style: for example, a totemic table will be considered diverse for an ideoligion with morbid and totemic styles, because the morbid style overrides totemic tables. If the total style dominance of uniform or diverse objects is at least 10 more than the other category, pawns will get an appropriate thought; the actual style of the object does not matter for stacking either: a morbid slab and a totemic slab in the same room will be uniform for an ideoligion with both styles, cancel each other out and give no thought for an ideoligion with one of those styles, and diverse for an ideoligion with neither.

An ideoligion with no styles would still consider its own buildings (such as ideogram), but not ritual seats, to be uniform.

Clothing, whether worn or placed on the ground, and uninstalled objects have no impact on style dominance.

== Memes ==
You must choose one to four memes at the beginning of your playthrough to form the foundational ideas of your ideoligion. Some have much more gameplay impact than others. Hovering over a meme will show you the information in this table.

<nowiki/>* Appears on faction's options but conflicts with required meme 
<nowiki/>** Since only two memes available, one of Individualist OR Collectivist must be chosen 
<nowiki/>*** Only restricts what memes can be auto-generated and loaded from saved ideoligions, can otherwise lack or possess any memes

=== Natural goodwill with other factions ===
Additionally, Supremacist and Raider have {{Bad|-50}} with everyone, Loyalist {{Bad|-10}} with everyone, and Guilty {{Good|+10}} with everyone. There is a {{Good|+10}} bonus for having the same ideoligion.

Modifiers stack, but each pair only applies once; for example Flesh purity + Cannibal vs Flesh purity + Cannibal give {{Good|+10}} for Flesh purity/Flesh purity, {{Good|+10}} for Cannibal/Cannibal, and {{Good|+10}} for Flesh purity/Cannibal.

== Precepts ==
{{Recode|reason=Convert mood descriptions to [[Template: Thought]]. {{Error|DO NOT}} convert without adequate detail to fully utilize the template, including max stack count, duration etc.}}
Associated precepts have a chance to appear if a meme is present, but can still be removed if not required.

Some precepts are available to all ideologies, some require at least one of the enabling memes, and some may be unavailable if certain memes are present.

=== Present in every ideoligion ===
There are 19 issues (precept categories) that are present in every ideoligion and may not be removed. However, their level may be changed. They include "basic" precepts from the base game, used in "Play Classic".

== Roles ==
{{Main|Roles}}
Roles are positions available to pawns that grant them both special benefits and drawbacks. Every ideoligion has at least two roles: [[Leader]] and [[Moral guide]]. There can be only 1 '''leader''' globally, and 1 '''moral guide''' per ideoligion.

Additionally, each ideoligion grants up to 2 types of [[specialist]]s; a role that grants large bonuses and abilities related to a specific field in exchange of inability of doing one or more types of work. This limitation only applies to the type of specialization, not the total number of specialists.

== Relics ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Better summary with some specifics but leave predominately as link to the main page}}
{{Main|Relic}}
Relics are objects revered by your ideoligion. To obtain them you need to go through a series of quests. If you take control of them, they give various boni to your colony. When placed in a [[Reliquary]], pilgrims of your ideoligion will visit your colony to pay reverence to the relic.
Mood penalty for lost or destroyed

== Buildings ==
Ideoligions can add special buildings that are required for either rituals or as statues of that ideologion.

=== Ritual seat ===
Ideologions can have a maximum of 1 type of ritual seat.

== Apparel preferences ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Missing several details inc but not limited to how it spawns on pawns}}

=== Apparel type combinations ===
Some kinds of [[apparel]] can be set as desired apparel.
{| class="wikitable"

! Apparel type !! Name

The player can set any of these pieces to be desired for men, women, or both, and can choose between a relaxed and strong desire. Multiple kinds (a maximum of 8 {{Check Tag|Verify?|Verify what's the limit?}}) of apparel can be chosen. You can select both a relaxed and a strong desire for the same gender / apparel type combination, for example, a female relaxed headgear and a female strong headgear. Note that selecting the same apparel type and preference twice will result in a conflict, for example, if you select a female: strong cowboy hat and an everyone: strong hood. To maximize the number of available desired apparel:
{| class="wikitable"

|-

|-
| [[Apparel#Skin|Skin]] || [[Button-down_shirt|Button-down shirt]]
|-
| [[Apparel#Outer|Outer]] || Everyone: relaxed Everyone: strong
|}

=== Mood effects ===

Wearing a desired apparel or a certain color has mood effect on the pawn.

==== Desired apparel ====

Pawns that are wearing all of their desired apparel will gain a small mood bonus of {{+|1}} for a relaxed desire, and {{+|2}} for a strong desire. There is no difference in the mood bonus for having multiple pieces of desired apparel in the ideology, the bonus is only for wearing all of their desired apparel. Unlike role-specific apparel, there is no mood penalty for not wearing desired apparel.

==== Color mood effect ====

Ideoligions have an ideoligion color. Pawns gain a gain a {{+|1}} mood buff if more than 60% of a colonist's apparel is their favorite color or the color of their ideoligion. If their favorite color and their ideoligion's color are the same, they will gain both mood buffs for a total of {{+|2}}. For a full list of valid apparel color options, see the [[Dye]] page.

The color of the ideoligion can be set at generation, while a pawn's favorite color is determined when the pawn is generated.{{Check Tag|Children?|Confirm when children gain a favorite color}} Apparel can be dyed at the [[styling station]] for one [[dye]] per piece of apparel. Note that unlike with preferred apparel, outside of the [[Man in Black]] event, pawns will not necessarily spawn wearing color that matches their ideoligion or preferred colors.

=== Spawning ===

Pawns that have an ideologion with desired apparel may spawn wearing it. The criteria for this are not fully understood, but pawnkinds that do not spawn with apparel that occupies the coverage and layer of the item preferred by the ideoligion appear to always spawn with the item. If the pawnkind does have conflicting apparel that may, or is required to, spawn, then a portion of those pawnkinds will spawn with the apparel. This can lead to knock-on effects, such as some Empire [[Empire#Cataphract|Cataphracts]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} spawning with hats in place of their [[cataphract helmet|helmets]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} making them weaker in combat. Note that this also applies to colonist spawns, including at game start. In any case, it is unknown if this is limited by the apparel value limits imposed on some pawnkinds.

== Xenotype preferences ==
{{Biotech|section=1}}
{{Stub|section=1|reason= Needs proper write up. Test if specific to Sanguophage or the implanter gene.}}
Believers consider this xenotype to hold a higher moral or spiritual status than others. They will be happy if their colony has only preferred xenotypes. However, having any preferred xenotypes means that all other xenotypes are considered disliked and believers will be unhappy living alongside them.

Up to three [[Xenotypes]] can be selected as preferred xenotypes, including baseliner and a custom xenotype. If at least one is selected then a positive mood will be generated if every colonist is a preferred type, but a negative scaling mood if even one colonist is not a preferred type.

Believers will not accept becoming a non-preferred xenotype via reimplant ability or [[xenogerm]]s. If [[Sanguophage]] is not a preferred type and at least one other preferred type is set, colonists will refuse Sanguophage xenogerm implantation and quests that award Sanguophage xenogerm will fail to give the reward.{{Check Tag|Fail?|Will not offer that as a reward? Will generate as a reward but not give it? Will not generate the quest? Will not generate the option that would be to receive the xenogerm? Will replace it with something else?}}

Opinion:
* Preferred xenotype: {{+|10}}
* Disliked xenotype: {{--|30}}

Mood:
* All preferred xenotype: {{+|2}}
* Some disliked xenotypes: {{--|2}}
* Many disliked xenotypes: {{--|3}}
* Tons of disliked xenotypes: {{--|4}}
* I am disliked xenotype<: {{--|6}}

== Venerated animals ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=General stub. Also: Check body size requirements. Add Table of options with bodysize and hunger/body size}}
{{Quote|This animal is considered by believers to hold a special spiritual or moral status, which means it must be venerated and may never be harmed.|Description}}
An ideoligion can have up to 18 venerated [[animal]]s.

Colonists will not hunt or attack venerated animals with ranged weapons (but will attack them in melee), unless the animal is in manhunter mood. They will not slaughter tame venerated animals.

Colonists will butcher venerated animals without any issue, but will refuse to eat their [[meat]] or any meal made with it (including meals stacked together), even when starving. They can be manually ordered to eat such food, but will get -8 mood for 5 days. If a colonist that venerates an animal is unconscious, other colonists (of any ideoligion) will not feed them such food, and '''cannot''' be manually ordered to do so. Colonists take no issue using [[leather]], [[wool]], [[milk]], or [[eggs]] of the venerated animal.

Colonists will get -5 mood for 5 days if a tame venerated animal dies for any reason. Releasing tame animals is fine.

Colonists will get a positive thought for the amount of tame venerated animals in the colony, depending on their total body size divided by the total number of colonists: +2 for 1 or more, +3 for 2 or more, +4 for 4 or more, and +5 for 6 or more. In case of multiple venerated animals, all their body sizes are added together, producing a single thought. All colonists are counted for this, but only those of an appropriate ideoligion will get the thought.

Despite being tameable, [[Insectoids]] cannot be selected as a venerated animal.

Venerated animals are twice as easy to tame.

== Hair and tattoos ==
An ideoligion has associated hairstyles, beards, and tattoos. Specific hairstyles and tattoos may be allowed for men, women, or either. Some of those may be more or less common.

Newly spawned pawns of an ideoligion will always have matching appearance.

If pawn's hairstyle, beard, or tattoo do not match what their ideoligion allows (usually as a result of a conversion), they will try to use [[styling station]] on their free time to automatically change their looks, and will have a -??{{Check Tag|Value?}} mood penalty until they do so. They can also be sent to adjust their appearance manually.

Ideoligion

{{Ideology}}
'''Ideoligions''' are both a system of mechanics introduced by, and the primary focus of, the [[Ideology DLC]]. They allow colonies to introduce a variety of new restrictions and capabilities to change gameplay, as well as new interactions with other factions.
{{TOCright}}

== Type of ideoligion ==
Whenever you start a new game, you will see the Ideology selection menu once you've selected a world tile.

* '''Ideology system inactive''' - Disables most of the Ideology system. Player colonies and factions will no longer have any ideoligion. With this option, you can create any ''style'', or cosmetic variant, of building (click the circle icon in the [[Architect]] tab, right next to the search bar).
:However, some aspects of the ideoligion system remain. You can still assign a [[Leader]], and will have access to a funeral and 2 [[ritual]]s - a dance party and drum party.{{Check Tag|Verify|Extremely quick testing}} In addition, there will be 3 randomized [[relic]]s that you can search for.

* '''Create ideoligion (fluid)''' - Design an ideoligion that can change over time.
:A fluid ideoligion only has access to 1 [[meme]] at the start of the game, which cannot be a high impact meme. Otherwise, a fluid ideoligion has the same customization options as a fixed ideoligion. The difference is that a fluid ideology can change over the course of the game. As you gain [[#Development points|development points]], you can add / remove memes, and re-customize just about everything else.

* '''Create ideoligion (fixed)''' - Design an ideoligion with complete control.

* '''Presets''' - Use an ideoligion already created for you. Want to live under the mountain, but don't want to make a full ideoligion? Pick the "Mole people" preset. You will start with a Funeral and 2 other random [[ritual]]s, as well as a random [[relic]]. Other aspects of the ideoligion will also be randomized.
:For example, the "Classic-like" preset will have the following precepts:
<div style="column-count:2; width:600px">
* [[#Corpses|Corpses: Ugly]]
* [[#Insect meat|Insect meat: Despised]]
* [[#Marriage name|Marriage name: Usually man's]]
* [[#Eating nutrient paste|Eating nutrient paste: Disgusting]]
* [[#Physical love|Physical love: Free]]
* [[#Women's spouses|Women's spouses: One only]]
* [[#Men's spouses|Men's spouses: One only]]
</div>

=== Development points ===
{{For|a guide for how to convert a non-fluid ideoligion to a fluid ideoligion via save editing|Fluid ideoligion save conversion guide}}
Fluid ideoligions are mostly the same as a static one, but can be changed over time through development points. When you have enough points, you can reform the ideoligion. It costs 10 points for the first reformation, and increases by +2 per reform until a max of 20 points. You cannot "store" points; once you can reform, no more points are gained.

Development points can be obtained in the following ways:
* Performing [[rituals]]. Rituals will give a varying amount of points depending on if they are "anytime" rituals or "dated" rituals, how many rituals the ideoligion has and the quality of the ritual. If a ritual achieves a goal that awards development points (such as a conversion), both the points for the goal and the ritual are received in full. Anytime rituals (including funerals) give 1 point for a good outcome and 2 points for a great outcome.
Dated rituals grant more points the fewer rituals the ideoligion has, -as detailed below- however Funerals, Gladiator Duels, Blinding, and Scarification rituals '''''Do not''''' count for the following table.

Reformation allows you to add ''or'' remove 1 meme, ''or'' change the structure of your ideoligion. If you add a meme, you cannot remove / replace another meme or change structure. In addition, you can only add 1 [[style]] at a time. All other changes are unlimited.

== Forming an ideoligion ==
An ideoligion consists of many separate aspects to customize:

'''Primary'''
* '''[[#Structure|Structure]]''' - What deities (or lack thereof) that followers believe in. Examples include ''Abstract theist'', that "god(s) are formless and everywhere", or ''Christian origin'', which is closer to the Abrahamic religions of the west. Structure helps determine the randomized names and lore of your ideoligion. This is almost entirely cosmetic, but can add a few ritual options.

* '''[[#Memes|Memes]]''' - The basic beliefs of the ideoligion. An ideoligion with the ''Cannibal'' meme will definitely enjoy human meat. Each ideoligion can have up to 4 memes. Most memes do not add much on their own, but affect what precepts the ideoligion has and cannot have. Some memes have access to [[roles|specialists]].

* '''[[#Precepts|Precepts]]''' - What a follower's belief systems are. Precepts directly determine how colonists will react to certain actions. An ideoligion with ''Cannibalism: Preferred'' will have followers enjoy eating human meat. An ideoligion with ''Cannibalism: Required (Ravenous)'' will want to eat human meat for every meal.
:Certain precepts have statistical effects beyond mood. For instance, ''Drugs: Essential'' boosts drug crop yield, synthesis speed, and sell price. These tend to be locked behind their associated meme.

'''Secondary'''
* '''[[Rituals]]''' - Special occasions, from Dance Party to Animal Sacrifice to Funerals. Every time you do a ritual, you can end up with a good or bad outcome. Good outcomes will increase colonist [[mood]], and come with a special, defined reward. For example, a spectacular festival can give you a random recruit, or cause a [[gauranlen pod]] to sprout.

:You can increase the chances of a good outcomes by following the ritual's requirements. A funeral can be done without your colonist's body, but the quality will be increased if the corpse is buried.

* '''[[#Roles|Roles]]''' - Every ideoligion has a Leader and Moral Guide. From there, you can have up to 2 types of specialists. A Shooting Specialist will be great at ranged combat, but is unable to do many types of skilled work. Note that you can have as many specialists of a specific type as you want. For example, you can have 3 Shooting Specialists in a single colony, but cannot have a Shooting, Plants, AND Research specialist in the same ideoligion.

* '''[[Relic]]s''' - Ideoligions can have relics. Relics can be either Legendary [[quality]] weapons or specific types of items that serve no other purpose. Relics must be found from a specific, multi-part relic hunt quest, which can take many years. Having a relic present will cause a number of benefits.

* '''Buildings''' - Buildings used by your ideoligion: [[altar]]s, [[sacrificial flag]]s, etc. Largely used for rituals. Altars and the like will eventually be demanded by followers of your ideoligion in a temple room.

* '''Preferences''' - Ideoligions can prefer [[apparel]], [[weapon]]s, and [[xenotype]]s {{BiotechIcon}}, as well as venerate specific [[animal]]s. Colonists will like having/being around preferred items. Whenever a colonist will dislike a non-preferred item is dependent on the preference in question.

'''Descriptive'''
* '''[[#Styles|Styles]]''' - How buildings made by an ideoligious builder will look. Largely cosmetic. However, it interacts with the Diversity of Thought precept. If colonists are neutral or bigoted, then they will enjoy being near styles of the same ideoligion. If colonists appreciate Diversity of Thought, they will enjoy being near styled buildings that their ideoligion could not make. Certain styles will affect more or less buildings.

* '''[[#Cultures|Cultures]]''' - Roughly where your ideoligion comes from. Astropolitian represents those coming from space. Corunan represents [[New Tribe|tribes]] in general. Entirely cosmetic.

* '''Lore''' - A randomly generated description of the ideoligion, based off of memes, structures, cultures, etc. Entirely cosmetic.

* '''Icon / color''' - An ideoligion's icon is used whenever an ideology will be displayed. The color of the icon will be a preferred color for followers. Followers gain a {{+|1}} moodlet for wearing their ideology's color, or their own favorite color. All colors require [[dye]] and the same amount of dye.

== Certainty ==
{{Split|destination=Certainty|reason=Would benefit from having a space for Analyis and strategies as well as more displays of how different stats really affect conversion times. example strats: forcing crises of faith, stacking convert power buffs, gene modding the convertee to have the Kind and Wimp traits etc. Leave section here with summary, and a [[Template:Main]] link to the oage. redirect [[Conversion]] there too}}
{{See also|Conversion Power|Global Certainty Loss Factor}}
'''Certainty''' is how willing a colonist is to maintain their current ideoligion. Conversion attempts reduce certainty. Once certainty hits 0%, a pawn's ideology will change.
=== Reassurance ===
Certainty increases by a set rate per day, which is dependent on current [[mood]].
* 1% / day at 20% mood or less
* 2% / day at 50% mood
* 3% / day at 80% mood or more
Between 20% and 80% mood, certainty gain is linearly interpolated.
Certainty does not regenerate while [[deathrest]]ing.{{BiotechIcon}}{{Check Tag|What else?|What else pauses reassurance}}
The [[Moral guide]] of an ideoligion can also reassure pawns of the same ideoligion, which increases certainty based on [[Conversion Power]].
If a pawn is converted, then they will start with 50% certainty in their new ideoligion.
=== Conversion ===
These ways to lower certainty are all considered "Conversion". The certainty reduction is increased by the converter's [[Conversion Power]], and decreased by the user's [[Global Certainty Loss Factor]]. Conversion strength is then multiplied by relevant [[trait]]s. For example, an [[Undergrounder]] will be harder to convert from an ideology with the Tunneler meme.
* Pawns will naturally try to convert each other during day-to-day conversation. This is governed by the [[Ideoligion Spread Chance]], which is increased by the [[#Proselytizing|Proselytizing]] precept.
* The [[role]] of [[Moral guide]] has a "Convert" ability. This is the same as normal conversion, but done on command. This has a cooldown of 3 days.
* If a pawn is held [[prisoner]], you can set the prisoner to Convert in the Prisoner. If there is a warden of the selected ideoligion available, they will start converting the prisoner.
The certainty reduction of a convert attempt can be calculated as follows:
{| class="wikitable"
| '''Certainty loss''' = 6% × [[Conversion Power]] of the Converter × If Converter is [[#Moral Guide|Moral Guide]] ({{Good|x2}}) × [[Global Certainty Loss Factor]] of Convertee × Relic Conversion Power Factor × Trait/Meme Agreeableness × AI Storyteller's Low pop conversion boost multiplier
|}
*'''Relic conversion factor:'''
{| class="wikitable"
! Relic Conversion Power Factor
|-
| {{Graph:Chart|width=200|height=200|yAxisMin=|xAxisMax=10| yAxisTitle=Conversion Power Factor|xAxisTitle=Relics in Reliquaries (#)|type=line|x=0, 1, 3, 5, 10 |y1=1.00, 1.10, 1.20, 1.25, 1.30}}
|}
'''Other certainty reduction''':
These ways reduce certainty by a set percentage. Reduction is not (directly) impacted by Conversion Power or Certainty Loss Factor.
* [[Rituals#Conversion ritual|Conversion ritual]]. Requires a Moral Guide. An effective conversion ritual reduces certainty by 30%. A masterful conversion ritual instantly converts the user to the desired ideoligion. Poor quality rituals instead ''increase'' certainty. The quality of the ritual increases the chance of an effective/masterful ritual; quality is increased by [[Social Impact]] of the moral guide, among other factors.
* [[Crisis of belief]] is an extreme [[mental break]] which immediately reduces certainty by 50%. If certainty reaches 0%, then the pawn will convert to a ''random'' ideoligion - even if you've attempted to convert them to a specific ideoligion prior. Notably, crisis of belief is one of 2 mental breaks that [[prisoner]]s associated with another faction are able to go through. (Colonists who have been arrested can go through other breaks)
* A [[Rituals#Throne speech|throne speech]]{{RoyaltyIcon}} can convert listeners to the speaker's ideoligion.{{Check Tag|Verify|Detail, too}}
[[Children]]{{BiotechIcon}} are a unique case of conversion, as babies have no ideoligion and one is assigned to them once they turn 3. For a more detailed description of how the ideoligion of a child is determined, see the [[Children#Ideoligion|Children]] page.

== Structure ==
Choosing your structure affects which symbols the game uses for your ideoligion, and allows for the selection of some rituals that would otherwise require specific memes. It also influences some random generation options and flavor text but these can be overridden by player selection.
{| class="wikitable sortable"

== Styles ==
An ideoligion can have 0-3 associated styles. People belonging to that ideoligion will apply those styles when making specific items. Colonists will get thoughts based on the styles of the objects around them, depending on their ideoligion's [[#Diversity of thought|diversity of thought]] precept either for having surroundings match or not match their ideoligion. Neutral surroundings produce no thought. If multiple styles of an ideoligion affect the same object, left-most applies. Note that building appearance in the construction menu will be based on your primary ideoligion, but the actual building might be different if built by a pawn of a different ideoligion.

=== Style dominance ===
Pawns consider objects with style dominance within 27 tiles outdoors, or in the same room regardless of distance. An item is considered "uniform" if pawn's ideoligion can build it, and "diverse" otherwise, regardless of the actual style: for example, a totemic table will be considered diverse for an ideoligion with morbid and totemic styles, because the morbid style overrides totemic tables. If the total style dominance of uniform or diverse objects is at least 10 more than the other category, pawns will get an appropriate thought; the actual style of the object does not matter for stacking either: a morbid slab and a totemic slab in the same room will be uniform for an ideoligion with both styles, cancel each other out and give no thought for an ideoligion with one of those styles, and diverse for an ideoligion with neither.

An ideoligion with no styles would still consider its own buildings (such as ideogram), but not ritual seats, to be uniform.

Clothing, whether worn or placed on the ground, and uninstalled objects have no impact on style dominance.

== Memes ==
You must choose one to four memes at the beginning of your playthrough to form the foundational ideas of your ideoligion. Some have much more gameplay impact than others. Hovering over a meme will show you the information in this table.

<nowiki/>* Appears on faction's options but conflicts with required meme 
<nowiki/>** Since only two memes available, one of Individualist OR Collectivist must be chosen 
<nowiki/>*** Only restricts what memes can be auto-generated and loaded from saved ideoligions, can otherwise lack or possess any memes

=== Natural goodwill with other factions ===
Additionally, Supremacist and Raider have {{Bad|-50}} with everyone, Loyalist {{Bad|-10}} with everyone, and Guilty {{Good|+10}} with everyone. There is a {{Good|+10}} bonus for having the same ideoligion.

Modifiers stack, but each pair only applies once; for example Flesh purity + Cannibal vs Flesh purity + Cannibal give {{Good|+10}} for Flesh purity/Flesh purity, {{Good|+10}} for Cannibal/Cannibal, and {{Good|+10}} for Flesh purity/Cannibal.

*Initial colonists, newly generated pawns (due to events, quests, raids, etc.), as well as pawns after changing map due to Archonexus quest have a 20 to 40 day grace period before they start demanding age reversal (it will replace their age reversal demanded date, even if it would come after that period).
*Whenever a pawn's faction or ideology change they'll get a 15-20 day grace period before they start demanding age reversal (unless their next age reversal demanded date will come after that period).

== Roles ==
{{Main|Roles}}
Roles are positions available to pawns that grant them both special benefits and drawbacks. Every ideoligion has at least two roles: [[Leader]] and [[Moral guide]]. There can be only 1 '''leader''' globally, and 1 '''moral guide''' per ideoligion.

</div>

Additionally, each ideoligion grants up to 2 types of [[specialist]]s; a role that grants large bonuses and abilities related to a specific field in exchange of inability of doing one or more types of work. This limitation only applies to the type of specialization, not the total number of specialists.

== Relics ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Better summary with some specifics but leave predominately as link to the main page}}
{{Main|Relic}}
Relics are objects revered by your ideoligion. To obtain them you need to go through a series of quests. If you take control of them, they give various boni to your colony. When placed in a [[Reliquary]], pilgrims of your ideoligion will visit your colony to pay reverence to the relic.
Mood penalty for lost or destroyed

== Buildings ==
Ideoligions can add special buildings that are required for either rituals or as statues of that ideologion.

=== Ritual seat ===
Ideologions can have a maximum of 1 type of ritual seat.

== Weapon preferences ==
Ideoligion can have one or several pairs of noble and despised weapons types. Weapon pairs can't be combined if they overlap.

== Apparel preferences ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Missing several details inc but not limited to how it spawns on pawns}}
Some kinds{{Check Tag|Detail needed|Needs a list of what kinds can and cannot be preferred}} of [[apparel]] can be set as preferred. The player can set any of these pieces to be desired for men, women, or both, and can choose between a relaxed and strong desire. Multiple kinds (a maximum of 8 {{Check Tag|Verify?|Verify what's the limit?}}) of apparel can be chosen. To maximize the number of available desired apparel:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Apparel type !! Gender / Preference combination
|-
| [[Apparel#Headgear|Headgear]] || Female: relaxed Female: strong Male: relaxed Male: strong
|-
| [[Apparel#Eyes|Eyes]] || [[Blindfold]]
|-
| [[Apparel#Skin|Skin]] || [[Button-down_shirt|Button-down shirt]]
|-
| [[Apparel#Outer|Outer]] || Everyone: relaxed Everyone: strong
|}

Pawns that are wearing all of their desired apparel will gain a small mood bonus of {{+|1}} for a relaxed desire, and {{+|2}} for a strong desire. There is no difference in the mood bonus for having multiple pieces of desired apparel in the ideology, the bonus is only for wearing all of their desired apparel. Unlike role-specific apparel, there is no mood penalty for not wearing desired apparel.

Pawns that have desired apparel may spawn wearing it. The criteria for this are not fully understood, but pawnkinds that do not spawn with apparel that occupies the coverage and layer of the item preferred by the ideoligion appear to always spawn with the item. If the pawnkind does have conflicting apparel that may, or is required to, spawn, then a portion of those pawnkinds will spawn with the apparel. This can lead to knock-on effects, such as some Empire [[Empire#Cataphract|Cataphracts]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} spawning with hats in place of their [[cataphract helmet|helmets]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} making them weaker in combat. Note that this also applies to colonist spawns, including at game start. In any case, it is unknown if this is limited by the apparel value limits imposed on some pawnkinds.

Ideoligions have an ideoligion color. Pawns gain a gain a {{+|1}} mood buff if more than 60% of a colonist's apparel is their favorite color or the color of their ideoligion. If their favorite color and their ideoligion's color are the same, they will gain both mood buffs for a total of {{+|2}}. For a full list of valid apparel color options, see the [[Dye]] page.

The color of the ideoligion can be set at generation, while a pawn's favorite color is determined when the pawn is generated.{{Check Tag|Children?|Confirm when children gain a favorite color}} Apparel can be dyed at the [[styling station]] for one [[dye]] per piece of apparel. Note that unlike with preferred apparel, outside of the [[Man in Black]] event, pawns will not necessarily spawn wearing color that matches their ideoligion or preferred colors.

== Xenotype preferences ==
{{Biotech|section=1}}
{{Stub|section=1|reason= Needs proper write up. Test if specific to Sanguophage or the implanter gene.}}
Believers consider this xenotype to hold a higher moral or spiritual status than others. They will be happy if their colony has only preferred xenotypes. However, having any preferred xenotypes means that all other xenotypes are considered disliked and believers will be unhappy living alongside them.

Up to three [[Xenotypes]] can be selected as preferred xenotypes, including baseliner and a custom xenotype. If at least one is selected then a positive mood will be generated if every colonist is a preferred type, but a negative scaling mood if even one colonist is not a preferred type.

Believers will not accept becoming a non-preferred xenotype via reimplant ability or [[xenogerm]]s. If [[Sanguophage]] is not a preferred type and at least one other preferred type is set, colonists will refuse Sanguophage xenogerm implantation and quests that award Sanguophage xenogerm will fail to give the reward.{{Check Tag|Fail?|Will not offer that as a reward? Will generate as a reward but not give it? Will not generate the quest? Will not generate the option that would be to receive the xenogerm? Will replace it with something else?}}

Opinion:
* Preferred xenotype: {{+|10}}
* Disliked xenotype: {{--|30}}

Mood:
* All preferred xenotype: {{+|2}}
* Some disliked xenotypes: {{--|2}}
* Many disliked xenotypes: {{--|3}}
* Tons of disliked xenotypes: {{--|4}}
* I am disliked xenotype<: {{--|6}}

== Venerated animals ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=General stub. Also: Check body size requirements. Add Table of options with bodysize and hunger/body size}}
{{Quote|This animal is considered by believers to hold a special spiritual or moral status, which means it must be venerated and may never be harmed.|Description}}
An ideoligion can have up to 18 venerated [[animal]]s.

Colonists will not hunt or attack venerated animals with ranged weapons (but will attack them in melee), unless the animal is in manhunter mood. They will not slaughter tame venerated animals.

Colonists will butcher venerated animals without any issue, but will refuse to eat their [[meat]] or any meal made with it (including meals stacked together), even when starving. They can be manually ordered to eat such food, but will get -8 mood for 5 days. If a colonist that venerates an animal is unconscious, other colonists (of any ideoligion) will not feed them such food, and '''cannot''' be manually ordered to do so. Colonists take no issue using [[leather]], [[wool]], [[milk]], or [[eggs]] of the venerated animal.

Colonists will get -5 mood for 5 days if a tame venerated animal dies for any reason. Releasing tame animals is fine.

Colonists will get a positive thought for the amount of tame venerated animals in the colony, depending on their total body size divided by the total number of colonists: +2 for 1 or more, +3 for 2 or more, +4 for 4 or more, and +5 for 6 or more. In case of multiple venerated animals, all their body sizes are added together, producing a single thought. All colonists are counted for this, but only those of an appropriate ideoligion will get the thought.

Despite being tameable, [[Insectoids]] cannot be selected as a venerated animal.

Venerated animals are twice as easy to tame.

== Hair and tattoos ==
An ideoligion has associated hairstyles, beards, and tattoos. Specific hairstyles and tattoos may be allowed for men, women, or either. Some of those may be more or less common.

Newly spawned pawns of an ideoligion will always have matching appearance.

If pawn's hairstyle, beard, or tattoo do not match what their ideoligion allows (usually as a result of a conversion), they will try to use [[styling station]] on their free time to automatically change their looks, and will have a -??{{Check Tag|Value?}} mood penalty until they do so. They can also be sent to adjust their appearance manually.

Ideoligion

2025-01-26T21:20:07Z

Daylong698: /* Apparel preferences */ Added apparel number type limit

{{Ideology}}
'''Ideoligions''' are both a system of mechanics introduced by, and the primary focus of, the [[Ideology DLC]]. They allow colonies to introduce a variety of new restrictions and capabilities to change gameplay, as well as new interactions with other factions.
{{TOCright}}

== Type of ideoligion ==
Whenever you start a new game, you will see the Ideology selection menu once you've selected a world tile.

* '''Ideology system inactive''' - Disables most of the Ideology system. Player colonies and factions will no longer have any ideoligion. With this option, you can create any ''style'', or cosmetic variant, of building (click the circle icon in the [[Architect]] tab, right next to the search bar).
:However, some aspects of the ideoligion system remain. You can still assign a [[Leader]], and will have access to a funeral and 2 [[ritual]]s - a dance party and drum party.{{Check Tag|Verify|Extremely quick testing}} In addition, there will be 3 randomized [[relic]]s that you can search for.

* '''Create ideoligion (fluid)''' - Design an ideoligion that can change over time.
:A fluid ideoligion only has access to 1 [[meme]] at the start of the game, which cannot be a high impact meme. Otherwise, a fluid ideoligion has the same customization options as a fixed ideoligion. The difference is that a fluid ideology can change over the course of the game. As you gain [[#Development points|development points]], you can add / remove memes, and re-customize just about everything else.

* '''Create ideoligion (fixed)''' - Design an ideoligion with complete control.

* '''Presets''' - Use an ideoligion already created for you. Want to live under the mountain, but don't want to make a full ideoligion? Pick the "Mole people" preset. You will start with a Funeral and 2 other random [[ritual]]s, as well as a random [[relic]]. Other aspects of the ideoligion will also be randomized.
:For example, the "Classic-like" preset will have the following precepts:
<div style="column-count:2; width:600px">
* [[#Corpses|Corpses: Ugly]]
* [[#Insect meat|Insect meat: Despised]]
* [[#Marriage name|Marriage name: Usually man's]]
* [[#Eating nutrient paste|Eating nutrient paste: Disgusting]]
* [[#Physical love|Physical love: Free]]
* [[#Women's spouses|Women's spouses: One only]]
* [[#Men's spouses|Men's spouses: One only]]
</div>

=== Development points ===
{{For|a guide for how to convert a non-fluid ideoligion to a fluid ideoligion via save editing|Fluid ideoligion save conversion guide}}
Fluid ideoligions are mostly the same as a static one, but can be changed over time through development points. When you have enough points, you can reform the ideoligion. It costs 10 points for the first reformation, and increases by +2 per reform until a max of 20 points. You cannot "store" points; once you can reform, no more points are gained.

Development points can be obtained in the following ways:
* Performing [[rituals]]. Rituals will give a varying amount of points depending on if they are "anytime" rituals or "dated" rituals, how many rituals the ideoligion has and the quality of the ritual. If a ritual achieves a goal that awards development points (such as a conversion), both the points for the goal and the ritual are received in full. Anytime rituals (including funerals) give 1 point for a good outcome and 2 points for a great outcome.
Dated rituals grant more points the fewer rituals the ideoligion has, -as detailed below- however Funerals, Gladiator Duels, Blinding, and Scarification rituals '''''Do not''''' count for the following table.

Reformation allows you to add ''or'' remove 1 meme, ''or'' change the structure of your ideoligion. If you add a meme, you cannot remove / replace another meme or change structure. In addition, you can only add 1 [[style]] at a time. All other changes are unlimited.

== Forming an ideoligion ==
An ideoligion consists of many separate aspects to customize:

'''Primary'''
* '''[[#Structure|Structure]]''' - What deities (or lack thereof) that followers believe in. Examples include ''Abstract theist'', that "god(s) are formless and everywhere", or ''Christian origin'', which is closer to the Abrahamic religions of the west. Structure helps determine the randomized names and lore of your ideoligion. This is almost entirely cosmetic, but can add a few ritual options.

* '''[[#Memes|Memes]]''' - The basic beliefs of the ideoligion. An ideoligion with the ''Cannibal'' meme will definitely enjoy human meat. Each ideoligion can have up to 4 memes. Most memes do not add much on their own, but affect what precepts the ideoligion has and cannot have. Some memes have access to [[roles|specialists]].

* '''[[#Precepts|Precepts]]''' - What a follower's belief systems are. Precepts directly determine how colonists will react to certain actions. An ideoligion with ''Cannibalism: Preferred'' will have followers enjoy eating human meat. An ideoligion with ''Cannibalism: Required (Ravenous)'' will want to eat human meat for every meal.
:Certain precepts have statistical effects beyond mood. For instance, ''Drugs: Essential'' boosts drug crop yield, synthesis speed, and sell price. These tend to be locked behind their associated meme.

'''Secondary'''
* '''[[Rituals]]''' - Special occasions, from Dance Party to Animal Sacrifice to Funerals. Every time you do a ritual, you can end up with a good or bad outcome. Good outcomes will increase colonist [[mood]], and come with a special, defined reward. For example, a spectacular festival can give you a random recruit, or cause a [[gauranlen pod]] to sprout.

:You can increase the chances of a good outcomes by following the ritual's requirements. A funeral can be done without your colonist's body, but the quality will be increased if the corpse is buried.

* '''[[#Roles|Roles]]''' - Every ideoligion has a Leader and Moral Guide. From there, you can have up to 2 types of specialists. A Shooting Specialist will be great at ranged combat, but is unable to do many types of skilled work. Note that you can have as many specialists of a specific type as you want. For example, you can have 3 Shooting Specialists in a single colony, but cannot have a Shooting, Plants, AND Research specialist in the same ideoligion.

* '''[[Relic]]s''' - Ideoligions can have relics. Relics can be either Legendary [[quality]] weapons or specific types of items that serve no other purpose. Relics must be found from a specific, multi-part relic hunt quest, which can take many years. Having a relic present will cause a number of benefits.

* '''Buildings''' - Buildings used by your ideoligion: [[altar]]s, [[sacrificial flag]]s, etc. Largely used for rituals. Altars and the like will eventually be demanded by followers of your ideoligion in a temple room.

* '''Preferences''' - Ideoligions can prefer [[apparel]], [[weapon]]s, and [[xenotype]]s {{BiotechIcon}}, as well as venerate specific [[animal]]s. Colonists will like having/being around preferred items. Whenever a colonist will dislike a non-preferred item is dependent on the preference in question.

'''Descriptive'''
* '''[[#Styles|Styles]]''' - How buildings made by an ideoligious builder will look. Largely cosmetic. However, it interacts with the Diversity of Thought precept. If colonists are neutral or bigoted, then they will enjoy being near styles of the same ideoligion. If colonists appreciate Diversity of Thought, they will enjoy being near styled buildings that their ideoligion could not make. Certain styles will affect more or less buildings.

* '''[[#Cultures|Cultures]]''' - Roughly where your ideoligion comes from. Astropolitian represents those coming from space. Corunan represents [[New Tribe|tribes]] in general. Entirely cosmetic.

* '''Lore''' - A randomly generated description of the ideoligion, based off of memes, structures, cultures, etc. Entirely cosmetic.

* '''Icon / color''' - An ideoligion's icon is used whenever an ideology will be displayed. The color of the icon will be a preferred color for followers. Followers gain a {{+|1}} moodlet for wearing their ideology's color, or their own favorite color. All colors require [[dye]] and the same amount of dye.

== Certainty ==
{{Split|destination=Certainty|reason=Would benefit from having a space for Analyis and strategies as well as more displays of how different stats really affect conversion times. example strats: forcing crises of faith, stacking convert power buffs, gene modding the convertee to have the Kind and Wimp traits etc. Leave section here with summary, and a [[Template:Main]] link to the oage. redirect [[Conversion]] there too}}
{{See also|Conversion Power|Global Certainty Loss Factor}}
'''Certainty''' is how willing a colonist is to maintain their current ideoligion. Conversion attempts reduce certainty. Once certainty hits 0%, a pawn's ideology will change.
=== Reassurance ===
Certainty increases by a set rate per day, which is dependent on current [[mood]].
* 1% / day at 20% mood or less
* 2% / day at 50% mood
* 3% / day at 80% mood or more
Between 20% and 80% mood, certainty gain is linearly interpolated.
Certainty does not regenerate while [[deathrest]]ing.{{BiotechIcon}}{{Check Tag|What else?|What else pauses reassurance}}
The [[Moral guide]] of an ideoligion can also reassure pawns of the same ideoligion, which increases certainty based on [[Conversion Power]].
If a pawn is converted, then they will start with 50% certainty in their new ideoligion.
=== Conversion ===
These ways to lower certainty are all considered "Conversion". The certainty reduction is increased by the converter's [[Conversion Power]], and decreased by the user's [[Global Certainty Loss Factor]]. Conversion strength is then multiplied by relevant [[trait]]s. For example, an [[Undergrounder]] will be harder to convert from an ideology with the Tunneler meme.
* Pawns will naturally try to convert each other during day-to-day conversation. This is governed by the [[Ideoligion Spread Chance]], which is increased by the [[#Proselytizing|Proselytizing]] precept.
* The [[role]] of [[Moral guide]] has a "Convert" ability. This is the same as normal conversion, but done on command. This has a cooldown of 3 days.
* If a pawn is held [[prisoner]], you can set the prisoner to Convert in the Prisoner. If there is a warden of the selected ideoligion available, they will start converting the prisoner.
The certainty reduction of a convert attempt can be calculated as follows:
{| class="wikitable"
| '''Certainty loss''' = 6% × [[Conversion Power]] of the Converter × If Converter is [[#Moral Guide|Moral Guide]] ({{Good|x2}}) × [[Global Certainty Loss Factor]] of Convertee × Relic Conversion Power Factor × Trait/Meme Agreeableness × AI Storyteller's Low pop conversion boost multiplier
|}
*'''Relic conversion factor:'''
{| class="wikitable"
! Relic Conversion Power Factor
|-
| {{Graph:Chart|width=200|height=200|yAxisMin=|xAxisMax=10| yAxisTitle=Conversion Power Factor|xAxisTitle=Relics in Reliquaries (#)|type=line|x=0, 1, 3, 5, 10 |y1=1.00, 1.10, 1.20, 1.25, 1.30}}
|}
'''Other certainty reduction''':
These ways reduce certainty by a set percentage. Reduction is not (directly) impacted by Conversion Power or Certainty Loss Factor.
* [[Rituals#Conversion ritual|Conversion ritual]]. Requires a Moral Guide. An effective conversion ritual reduces certainty by 30%. A masterful conversion ritual instantly converts the user to the desired ideoligion. Poor quality rituals instead ''increase'' certainty. The quality of the ritual increases the chance of an effective/masterful ritual; quality is increased by [[Social Impact]] of the moral guide, among other factors.
* [[Crisis of belief]] is an extreme [[mental break]] which immediately reduces certainty by 50%. If certainty reaches 0%, then the pawn will convert to a ''random'' ideoligion - even if you've attempted to convert them to a specific ideoligion prior. Notably, crisis of belief is one of 2 mental breaks that [[prisoner]]s associated with another faction are able to go through. (Colonists who have been arrested can go through other breaks)
* A [[Rituals#Throne speech|throne speech]]{{RoyaltyIcon}} can convert listeners to the speaker's ideoligion.{{Check Tag|Verify|Detail, too}}
[[Children]]{{BiotechIcon}} are a unique case of conversion, as babies have no ideoligion and one is assigned to them once they turn 3. For a more detailed description of how the ideoligion of a child is determined, see the [[Children#Ideoligion|Children]] page.

== Structure ==
Choosing your structure affects which symbols the game uses for your ideoligion, and allows for the selection of some rituals that would otherwise require specific memes. It also influences some random generation options and flavor text but these can be overridden by player selection.

== Styles ==
An ideoligion can have 0-3 associated styles. People belonging to that ideoligion will apply those styles when making specific items. Colonists will get thoughts based on the styles of the objects around them, depending on their ideoligion's [[#Diversity of thought|diversity of thought]] precept either for having surroundings match or not match their ideoligion. Neutral surroundings produce no thought. If multiple styles of an ideoligion affect the same object, left-most applies. Note that building appearance in the construction menu will be based on your primary ideoligion, but the actual building might be different if built by a pawn of a different ideoligion.

=== Style dominance ===
Pawns consider objects with style dominance within 27 tiles outdoors, or in the same room regardless of distance. An item is considered "uniform" if pawn's ideoligion can build it, and "diverse" otherwise, regardless of the actual style: for example, a totemic table will be considered diverse for an ideoligion with morbid and totemic styles, because the morbid style overrides totemic tables. If the total style dominance of uniform or diverse objects is at least 10 more than the other category, pawns will get an appropriate thought; the actual style of the object does not matter for stacking either: a morbid slab and a totemic slab in the same room will be uniform for an ideoligion with both styles, cancel each other out and give no thought for an ideoligion with one of those styles, and diverse for an ideoligion with neither.

An ideoligion with no styles would still consider its own buildings (such as ideogram), but not ritual seats, to be uniform.

Clothing, whether worn or placed on the ground, and uninstalled objects have no impact on style dominance.

== Memes ==
You must choose one to four memes at the beginning of your playthrough to form the foundational ideas of your ideoligion. Some have much more gameplay impact than others. Hovering over a meme will show you the information in this table.

<nowiki/>* Appears on faction's options but conflicts with required meme 
<nowiki/>** Since only two memes available, one of Individualist OR Collectivist must be chosen 
<nowiki/>*** Only restricts what memes can be auto-generated and loaded from saved ideoligions, can otherwise lack or possess any memes

=== Natural goodwill with other factions ===
Additionally, Supremacist and Raider have {{Bad|-50}} with everyone, Loyalist {{Bad|-10}} with everyone, and Guilty {{Good|+10}} with everyone. There is a {{Good|+10}} bonus for having the same ideoligion.

Modifiers stack, but each pair only applies once; for example Flesh purity + Cannibal vs Flesh purity + Cannibal give {{Good|+10}} for Flesh purity/Flesh purity, {{Good|+10}} for Cannibal/Cannibal, and {{Good|+10}} for Flesh purity/Cannibal.

== Precepts ==
{{Recode|reason=Convert mood descriptions to [[Template: Thought]]. {{Error|DO NOT}} convert without adequate detail to fully utilize the template, including max stack count, duration etc.}}
Associated precepts have a chance to appear if a meme is present, but can still be removed if not required.

Some precepts are available to all ideologies, some require at least one of the enabling memes, and some may be unavailable if certain memes are present.

=== Present in every ideoligion ===
There are 19 issues (precept categories) that are present in every ideoligion and may not be removed. However, their level may be changed. They include "basic" precepts from the base game, used in "Play Classic".

*Initial colonists, newly generated pawns (due to events, quests, raids, etc.), as well as pawns after changing map due to Archonexus quest have a 20 to 40 day grace period before they start demanding age reversal (it will replace their age reversal demanded date, even if it would come after that period).

== Roles ==
{{Main|Roles}}
Roles are positions available to pawns that grant them both special benefits and drawbacks. Every ideoligion has at least two roles: [[Leader]] and [[Moral guide]]. There can be only 1 '''leader''' globally, and 1 '''moral guide''' per ideoligion.

Additionally, each ideoligion grants up to 2 types of [[specialist]]s; a role that grants large bonuses and abilities related to a specific field in exchange of inability of doing one or more types of work. This limitation only applies to the type of specialization, not the total number of specialists.

== Relics ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Better summary with some specifics but leave predominately as link to the main page}}
{{Main|Relic}}
Relics are objects revered by your ideoligion. To obtain them you need to go through a series of quests. If you take control of them, they give various boni to your colony. When placed in a [[Reliquary]], pilgrims of your ideoligion will visit your colony to pay reverence to the relic.
Mood penalty for lost or destroyed

== Buildings ==
Ideoligions can add special buildings that are required for either rituals or as statues of that ideologion.

=== Ritual seat ===
Ideologions can have a maximum of 1 type of ritual seat.

== Weapon preferences ==
Ideoligion can have one or several pairs of noble and despised weapons types. Weapon pairs can't be combined if they overlap.

Wielding a noble weapon grants +3 mood while wielding a despised one grants -5.

Killing any pawn{{Check Tag|Verify}} with a noble weapon grants +3 mood for 1 day{{Check Tag|Thought Template|Convert to thought template}} while using a despised one to attack anything - including objects - grants -5 for 2 days.{{Check Tag|Thought Template|Convert to thought template}}

== Apparel preferences ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Missing several details inc but not limited to how it spawns on pawns}}
Some kinds{{Check Tag|Detail needed|Needs a list of what kinds can and cannot be preferred}} of [[apparel]] can be set as preferred. The player can set any of these pieces to be desired for men, women, or both, and can choose between a relaxed and strong desire. Multiple kinds (a maximum of 8 {{Check Tag|Verify?|Verify what's the limit?}}) of apparel can be chosen. To maximize the options:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Apparel type !! Gender / Preference combination
|-
| Headgear || Female: relaxed Female: strong Male: relaxed Male: strong
|-
| Eyes || [[Blindfold]]
|-
| Skin || [[Button-down_shirt|Button-down shirt]]
|-
| Outer || Everyone: relaxed Everyone: strong
|}

Pawns that are wearing all of their desired apparel will gain a small mood bonus of {{+|1}} for a relaxed desire, and {{+|2}} for a strong desire. There is no difference in the mood bonus for having multiple pieces of desired apparel in the ideology, the bonus is only for wearing all of their desired apparel. Unlike role-specific apparel, there is no mood penalty for not wearing desired apparel.

Pawns that have desired apparel may spawn wearing it. The criteria for this are not fully understood, but pawnkinds that do not spawn with apparel that occupies the coverage and layer of the item preferred by the ideoligion appear to always spawn with the item. If the pawnkind does have conflicting apparel that may, or is required to, spawn, then a portion of those pawnkinds will spawn with the apparel. This can lead to knock-on effects, such as some Empire [[Empire#Cataphract|Cataphracts]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} spawning with hats in place of their [[cataphract helmet|helmets]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} making them weaker in combat. Note that this also applies to colonist spawns, including at game start. In any case, it is unknown if this is limited by the apparel value limits imposed on some pawnkinds.

Ideoligions have an ideoligion color. Pawns gain a gain a {{+|1}} mood buff if more than 60% of a colonist's apparel is their favorite color or the color of their ideoligion. If their favorite color and their ideoligion's color are the same, they will gain both mood buffs for a total of {{+|2}}. For a full list of valid apparel color options, see the [[Dye]] page.

The color of the ideoligion can be set at generation, while a pawn's favorite color is determined when the pawn is generated.{{Check Tag|Children?|Confirm when children gain a favorite color}} Apparel can be dyed at the [[styling station]] for one [[dye]] per piece of apparel. Note that unlike with preferred apparel, outside of the [[Man in Black]] event, pawns will not necessarily spawn wearing color that matches their ideoligion or preferred colors.

== Xenotype preferences ==
{{Biotech|section=1}}
{{Stub|section=1|reason= Needs proper write up. Test if specific to Sanguophage or the implanter gene.}}
Believers consider this xenotype to hold a higher moral or spiritual status than others. They will be happy if their colony has only preferred xenotypes. However, having any preferred xenotypes means that all other xenotypes are considered disliked and believers will be unhappy living alongside them.

Up to three [[Xenotypes]] can be selected as preferred xenotypes, including baseliner and a custom xenotype. If at least one is selected then a positive mood will be generated if every colonist is a preferred type, but a negative scaling mood if even one colonist is not a preferred type.

Believers will not accept becoming a non-preferred xenotype via reimplant ability or [[xenogerm]]s. If [[Sanguophage]] is not a preferred type and at least one other preferred type is set, colonists will refuse Sanguophage xenogerm implantation and quests that award Sanguophage xenogerm will fail to give the reward.{{Check Tag|Fail?|Will not offer that as a reward? Will generate as a reward but not give it? Will not generate the quest? Will not generate the option that would be to receive the xenogerm? Will replace it with something else?}}

Opinion:
* Preferred xenotype: {{+|10}}
* Disliked xenotype: {{--|30}}

Mood:
* All preferred xenotype: {{+|2}}
* Some disliked xenotypes: {{--|2}}
* Many disliked xenotypes: {{--|3}}
* Tons of disliked xenotypes: {{--|4}}
* I am disliked xenotype<: {{--|6}}

== Venerated animals ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=General stub. Also: Check body size requirements. Add Table of options with bodysize and hunger/body size}}
{{Quote|This animal is considered by believers to hold a special spiritual or moral status, which means it must be venerated and may never be harmed.|Description}}
An ideoligion can have up to 18 venerated [[animal]]s.

Colonists will not hunt or attack venerated animals with ranged weapons (but will attack them in melee), unless the animal is in manhunter mood. They will not slaughter tame venerated animals.

Colonists will butcher venerated animals without any issue, but will refuse to eat their [[meat]] or any meal made with it (including meals stacked together), even when starving. They can be manually ordered to eat such food, but will get -8 mood for 5 days. If a colonist that venerates an animal is unconscious, other colonists (of any ideoligion) will not feed them such food, and '''cannot''' be manually ordered to do so. Colonists take no issue using [[leather]], [[wool]], [[milk]], or [[eggs]] of the venerated animal.

Colonists will get -5 mood for 5 days if a tame venerated animal dies for any reason. Releasing tame animals is fine.

Colonists will get a positive thought for the amount of tame venerated animals in the colony, depending on their total body size divided by the total number of colonists: +2 for 1 or more, +3 for 2 or more, +4 for 4 or more, and +5 for 6 or more. In case of multiple venerated animals, all their body sizes are added together, producing a single thought. All colonists are counted for this, but only those of an appropriate ideoligion will get the thought.

Despite being tameable, [[Insectoids]] cannot be selected as a venerated animal.

Venerated animals are twice as easy to tame.

== Hair and tattoos ==
An ideoligion has associated hairstyles, beards, and tattoos. Specific hairstyles and tattoos may be allowed for men, women, or either. Some of those may be more or less common.

Newly spawned pawns of an ideoligion will always have matching appearance.

If pawn's hairstyle, beard, or tattoo do not match what their ideoligion allows (usually as a result of a conversion), they will try to use [[styling station]] on their free time to automatically change their looks, and will have a -??{{Check Tag|Value?}} mood penalty until they do so. They can also be sent to adjust their appearance manually.

Ideoligion

2025-01-26T21:04:35Z

Daylong698: /* Buildings */ Removed stub banner

{{Ideology}}
'''Ideoligions''' are both a system of mechanics introduced by, and the primary focus of, the [[Ideology DLC]]. They allow colonies to introduce a variety of new restrictions and capabilities to change gameplay, as well as new interactions with other factions.
{{TOCright}}

== Type of ideoligion ==
Whenever you start a new game, you will see the Ideology selection menu once you've selected a world tile.

* '''Ideology system inactive''' - Disables most of the Ideology system. Player colonies and factions will no longer have any ideoligion. With this option, you can create any ''style'', or cosmetic variant, of building (click the circle icon in the [[Architect]] tab, right next to the search bar).
:However, some aspects of the ideoligion system remain. You can still assign a [[Leader]], and will have access to a funeral and 2 [[ritual]]s - a dance party and drum party.{{Check Tag|Verify|Extremely quick testing}} In addition, there will be 3 randomized [[relic]]s that you can search for.

* '''Create ideoligion (fluid)''' - Design an ideoligion that can change over time.
:A fluid ideoligion only has access to 1 [[meme]] at the start of the game, which cannot be a high impact meme. Otherwise, a fluid ideoligion has the same customization options as a fixed ideoligion. The difference is that a fluid ideology can change over the course of the game. As you gain [[#Development points|development points]], you can add / remove memes, and re-customize just about everything else.

* '''Create ideoligion (fixed)''' - Design an ideoligion with complete control.

* '''Presets''' - Use an ideoligion already created for you. Want to live under the mountain, but don't want to make a full ideoligion? Pick the "Mole people" preset. You will start with a Funeral and 2 other random [[ritual]]s, as well as a random [[relic]]. Other aspects of the ideoligion will also be randomized.
:For example, the "Classic-like" preset will have the following precepts:
<div style="column-count:2; width:600px">
* [[#Corpses|Corpses: Ugly]]
* [[#Insect meat|Insect meat: Despised]]
* [[#Marriage name|Marriage name: Usually man's]]
* [[#Eating nutrient paste|Eating nutrient paste: Disgusting]]
* [[#Physical love|Physical love: Free]]
* [[#Women's spouses|Women's spouses: One only]]
* [[#Men's spouses|Men's spouses: One only]]
</div>

=== Development points ===
{{For|a guide for how to convert a non-fluid ideoligion to a fluid ideoligion via save editing|Fluid ideoligion save conversion guide}}
Fluid ideoligions are mostly the same as a static one, but can be changed over time through development points. When you have enough points, you can reform the ideoligion. It costs 10 points for the first reformation, and increases by +2 per reform until a max of 20 points. You cannot "store" points; once you can reform, no more points are gained.

Development points can be obtained in the following ways:
* Performing [[rituals]]. Rituals will give a varying amount of points depending on if they are "anytime" rituals or "dated" rituals, how many rituals the ideoligion has and the quality of the ritual. If a ritual achieves a goal that awards development points (such as a conversion), both the points for the goal and the ritual are received in full. Anytime rituals (including funerals) give 1 point for a good outcome and 2 points for a great outcome.
Dated rituals grant more points the fewer rituals the ideoligion has, -as detailed below- however Funerals, Gladiator Duels, Blinding, and Scarification rituals '''''Do not''''' count for the following table.

Reformation allows you to add ''or'' remove 1 meme, ''or'' change the structure of your ideoligion. If you add a meme, you cannot remove / replace another meme or change structure. In addition, you can only add 1 [[style]] at a time. All other changes are unlimited.

== Forming an ideoligion ==
An ideoligion consists of many separate aspects to customize:

'''Primary'''
* '''[[#Structure|Structure]]''' - What deities (or lack thereof) that followers believe in. Examples include ''Abstract theist'', that "god(s) are formless and everywhere", or ''Christian origin'', which is closer to the Abrahamic religions of the west. Structure helps determine the randomized names and lore of your ideoligion. This is almost entirely cosmetic, but can add a few ritual options.

* '''[[#Memes|Memes]]''' - The basic beliefs of the ideoligion. An ideoligion with the ''Cannibal'' meme will definitely enjoy human meat. Each ideoligion can have up to 4 memes. Most memes do not add much on their own, but affect what precepts the ideoligion has and cannot have. Some memes have access to [[roles|specialists]].

* '''[[#Precepts|Precepts]]''' - What a follower's belief systems are. Precepts directly determine how colonists will react to certain actions. An ideoligion with ''Cannibalism: Preferred'' will have followers enjoy eating human meat. An ideoligion with ''Cannibalism: Required (Ravenous)'' will want to eat human meat for every meal.
:Certain precepts have statistical effects beyond mood. For instance, ''Drugs: Essential'' boosts drug crop yield, synthesis speed, and sell price. These tend to be locked behind their associated meme.

'''Secondary'''
* '''[[Rituals]]''' - Special occasions, from Dance Party to Animal Sacrifice to Funerals. Every time you do a ritual, you can end up with a good or bad outcome. Good outcomes will increase colonist [[mood]], and come with a special, defined reward. For example, a spectacular festival can give you a random recruit, or cause a [[gauranlen pod]] to sprout.

:You can increase the chances of a good outcomes by following the ritual's requirements. A funeral can be done without your colonist's body, but the quality will be increased if the corpse is buried.

* '''[[#Roles|Roles]]''' - Every ideoligion has a Leader and Moral Guide. From there, you can have up to 2 types of specialists. A Shooting Specialist will be great at ranged combat, but is unable to do many types of skilled work. Note that you can have as many specialists of a specific type as you want. For example, you can have 3 Shooting Specialists in a single colony, but cannot have a Shooting, Plants, AND Research specialist in the same ideoligion.

* '''[[Relic]]s''' - Ideoligions can have relics. Relics can be either Legendary [[quality]] weapons or specific types of items that serve no other purpose. Relics must be found from a specific, multi-part relic hunt quest, which can take many years. Having a relic present will cause a number of benefits.

* '''Buildings''' - Buildings used by your ideoligion: [[altar]]s, [[sacrificial flag]]s, etc. Largely used for rituals. Altars and the like will eventually be demanded by followers of your ideoligion in a temple room.

* '''Preferences''' - Ideoligions can prefer [[apparel]], [[weapon]]s, and [[xenotype]]s {{BiotechIcon}}, as well as venerate specific [[animal]]s. Colonists will like having/being around preferred items. Whenever a colonist will dislike a non-preferred item is dependent on the preference in question.

'''Descriptive'''
* '''[[#Styles|Styles]]''' - How buildings made by an ideoligious builder will look. Largely cosmetic. However, it interacts with the Diversity of Thought precept. If colonists are neutral or bigoted, then they will enjoy being near styles of the same ideoligion. If colonists appreciate Diversity of Thought, they will enjoy being near styled buildings that their ideoligion could not make. Certain styles will affect more or less buildings.

* '''[[#Cultures|Cultures]]''' - Roughly where your ideoligion comes from. Astropolitian represents those coming from space. Corunan represents [[New Tribe|tribes]] in general. Entirely cosmetic.

* '''Lore''' - A randomly generated description of the ideoligion, based off of memes, structures, cultures, etc. Entirely cosmetic.

* '''Icon / color''' - An ideoligion's icon is used whenever an ideology will be displayed. The color of the icon will be a preferred color for followers. Followers gain a {{+|1}} moodlet for wearing their ideology's color, or their own favorite color. All colors require [[dye]] and the same amount of dye.

== Certainty ==
{{Split|destination=Certainty|reason=Would benefit from having a space for Analyis and strategies as well as more displays of how different stats really affect conversion times. example strats: forcing crises of faith, stacking convert power buffs, gene modding the convertee to have the Kind and Wimp traits etc. Leave section here with summary, and a [[Template:Main]] link to the oage. redirect [[Conversion]] there too}}
{{See also|Conversion Power|Global Certainty Loss Factor}}
'''Certainty''' is how willing a colonist is to maintain their current ideoligion. Conversion attempts reduce certainty. Once certainty hits 0%, a pawn's ideology will change.
=== Reassurance ===
Certainty increases by a set rate per day, which is dependent on current [[mood]].
* 1% / day at 20% mood or less
* 2% / day at 50% mood
* 3% / day at 80% mood or more
Between 20% and 80% mood, certainty gain is linearly interpolated.
Certainty does not regenerate while [[deathrest]]ing.{{BiotechIcon}}{{Check Tag|What else?|What else pauses reassurance}}
The [[Moral guide]] of an ideoligion can also reassure pawns of the same ideoligion, which increases certainty based on [[Conversion Power]].
If a pawn is converted, then they will start with 50% certainty in their new ideoligion.
=== Conversion ===
These ways to lower certainty are all considered "Conversion". The certainty reduction is increased by the converter's [[Conversion Power]], and decreased by the user's [[Global Certainty Loss Factor]]. Conversion strength is then multiplied by relevant [[trait]]s. For example, an [[Undergrounder]] will be harder to convert from an ideology with the Tunneler meme.
* Pawns will naturally try to convert each other during day-to-day conversation. This is governed by the [[Ideoligion Spread Chance]], which is increased by the [[#Proselytizing|Proselytizing]] precept.
* The [[role]] of [[Moral guide]] has a "Convert" ability. This is the same as normal conversion, but done on command. This has a cooldown of 3 days.
* If a pawn is held [[prisoner]], you can set the prisoner to Convert in the Prisoner. If there is a warden of the selected ideoligion available, they will start converting the prisoner.
The certainty reduction of a convert attempt can be calculated as follows:
{| class="wikitable"
| '''Certainty loss''' = 6% × [[Conversion Power]] of the Converter × If Converter is [[#Moral Guide|Moral Guide]] ({{Good|x2}}) × [[Global Certainty Loss Factor]] of Convertee × Relic Conversion Power Factor × Trait/Meme Agreeableness × AI Storyteller's Low pop conversion boost multiplier
|}
*'''Relic conversion factor:'''
{| class="wikitable"
! Relic Conversion Power Factor
|-
| {{Graph:Chart|width=200|height=200|yAxisMin=|xAxisMax=10| yAxisTitle=Conversion Power Factor|xAxisTitle=Relics in Reliquaries (#)|type=line|x=0, 1, 3, 5, 10 |y1=1.00, 1.10, 1.20, 1.25, 1.30}}
|}
'''Other certainty reduction''':
These ways reduce certainty by a set percentage. Reduction is not (directly) impacted by Conversion Power or Certainty Loss Factor.
* [[Rituals#Conversion ritual|Conversion ritual]]. Requires a Moral Guide. An effective conversion ritual reduces certainty by 30%. A masterful conversion ritual instantly converts the user to the desired ideoligion. Poor quality rituals instead ''increase'' certainty. The quality of the ritual increases the chance of an effective/masterful ritual; quality is increased by [[Social Impact]] of the moral guide, among other factors.
* [[Crisis of belief]] is an extreme [[mental break]] which immediately reduces certainty by 50%. If certainty reaches 0%, then the pawn will convert to a ''random'' ideoligion - even if you've attempted to convert them to a specific ideoligion prior. Notably, crisis of belief is one of 2 mental breaks that [[prisoner]]s associated with another faction are able to go through. (Colonists who have been arrested can go through other breaks)
* A [[Rituals#Throne speech|throne speech]]{{RoyaltyIcon}} can convert listeners to the speaker's ideoligion.{{Check Tag|Verify|Detail, too}}
[[Children]]{{BiotechIcon}} are a unique case of conversion, as babies have no ideoligion and one is assigned to them once they turn 3. For a more detailed description of how the ideoligion of a child is determined, see the [[Children#Ideoligion|Children]] page.

== Structure ==
Choosing your structure affects which symbols the game uses for your ideoligion, and allows for the selection of some rituals that would otherwise require specific memes. It also influences some random generation options and flavor text but these can be overridden by player selection.

== Styles ==
An ideoligion can have 0-3 associated styles. People belonging to that ideoligion will apply those styles when making specific items. Colonists will get thoughts based on the styles of the objects around them, depending on their ideoligion's [[#Diversity of thought|diversity of thought]] precept either for having surroundings match or not match their ideoligion. Neutral surroundings produce no thought. If multiple styles of an ideoligion affect the same object, left-most applies. Note that building appearance in the construction menu will be based on your primary ideoligion, but the actual building might be different if built by a pawn of a different ideoligion.

=== Style dominance ===
Pawns consider objects with style dominance within 27 tiles outdoors, or in the same room regardless of distance. An item is considered "uniform" if pawn's ideoligion can build it, and "diverse" otherwise, regardless of the actual style: for example, a totemic table will be considered diverse for an ideoligion with morbid and totemic styles, because the morbid style overrides totemic tables. If the total style dominance of uniform or diverse objects is at least 10 more than the other category, pawns will get an appropriate thought; the actual style of the object does not matter for stacking either: a morbid slab and a totemic slab in the same room will be uniform for an ideoligion with both styles, cancel each other out and give no thought for an ideoligion with one of those styles, and diverse for an ideoligion with neither.

An ideoligion with no styles would still consider its own buildings (such as ideogram), but not ritual seats, to be uniform.

Clothing, whether worn or placed on the ground, and uninstalled objects have no impact on style dominance.

== Memes ==
You must choose one to four memes at the beginning of your playthrough to form the foundational ideas of your ideoligion. Some have much more gameplay impact than others. Hovering over a meme will show you the information in this table.

<nowiki/>* Appears on faction's options but conflicts with required meme 
<nowiki/>** Since only two memes available, one of Individualist OR Collectivist must be chosen 
<nowiki/>*** Only restricts what memes can be auto-generated and loaded from saved ideoligions, can otherwise lack or possess any memes

=== Natural goodwill with other factions ===
Additionally, Supremacist and Raider have {{Bad|-50}} with everyone, Loyalist {{Bad|-10}} with everyone, and Guilty {{Good|+10}} with everyone. There is a {{Good|+10}} bonus for having the same ideoligion.

Modifiers stack, but each pair only applies once; for example Flesh purity + Cannibal vs Flesh purity + Cannibal give {{Good|+10}} for Flesh purity/Flesh purity, {{Good|+10}} for Cannibal/Cannibal, and {{Good|+10}} for Flesh purity/Cannibal.

== Precepts ==
{{Recode|reason=Convert mood descriptions to [[Template: Thought]]. {{Error|DO NOT}} convert without adequate detail to fully utilize the template, including max stack count, duration etc.}}
Associated precepts have a chance to appear if a meme is present, but can still be removed if not required.

Some precepts are available to all ideologies, some require at least one of the enabling memes, and some may be unavailable if certain memes are present.

=== Present in every ideoligion ===
There are 19 issues (precept categories) that are present in every ideoligion and may not be removed. However, their level may be changed. They include "basic" precepts from the base game, used in "Play Classic".

*Initial colonists, newly generated pawns (due to events, quests, raids, etc.), as well as pawns after changing map due to Archonexus quest have a 20 to 40 day grace period before they start demanding age reversal (it will replace their age reversal demanded date, even if it would come after that period).

== Roles ==
{{Main|Roles}}
Roles are positions available to pawns that grant them both special benefits and drawbacks. Every ideoligion has at least two roles: [[Leader]] and [[Moral guide]]. There can be only 1 '''leader''' globally, and 1 '''moral guide''' per ideoligion.

Additionally, each ideoligion grants up to 2 types of [[specialist]]s; a role that grants large bonuses and abilities related to a specific field in exchange of inability of doing one or more types of work. This limitation only applies to the type of specialization, not the total number of specialists.

{{Main|Relic}}
Relics are objects revered by your ideoligion. To obtain them you need to go through a series of quests. If you take control of them, they give various boni to your colony. When placed in a [[Reliquary]], pilgrims of your ideoligion will visit your colony to pay reverence to the relic.
Mood penalty for lost or destroyed

== Buildings ==
Ideoligions can add special buildings that are required for either rituals or as statues of that ideologion.

=== Ritual seat ===
Ideologions can have a maximum of 1 type of ritual seat.

== Apparel preferences ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Missing several details inc but not limited to how it spawns on pawns}}
Some kinds{{Check Tag|Detail needed|Needs a list of what kinds can and cannot be preferred}} of [[apparel]] can be set as preferred. The player can set any of these pieces to be desired for men, women, or both, and can choose between a relaxed and strong desire. Multiple kinds{{Check Tag|Cap?|What's the limit?}} of apparel can be chosen.

Pawns that are wearing all of their desired apparel will gain a small mood bonus of {{+|1}} for a relaxed desire, and {{+|2}} for a strong desire. There is no difference in the mood bonus for having multiple pieces of desired apparel in the ideology, the bonus is only for wearing all of their desired apparel. Unlike role-specific apparel, there is no mood penalty for not wearing desired apparel.

Pawns that have desired apparel may spawn wearing it. The criteria for this are not fully understood, but pawnkinds that do not spawn with apparel that occupies the coverage and layer of the item preferred by the ideoligion appear to always spawn with the item. If the pawnkind does have conflicting apparel that may, or is required to, spawn, then a portion of those pawnkinds will spawn with the apparel. This can lead to knock-on effects, such as some Empire [[Empire#Cataphract|Cataphracts]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} spawning with hats in place of their [[cataphract helmet|helmets]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} making them weaker in combat. Note that this also applies to colonist spawns, including at game start. In any case, it is unknown if this is limited by the apparel value limits imposed on some pawnkinds.

Ideoligions have an ideoligion color. Pawns gain a gain a {{+|1}} mood buff if more than 60% of a colonist's apparel is their favorite color or the color of their ideoligion. If their favorite color and their ideoligion's color are the same, they will gain both mood buffs for a total of {{+|2}}. For a full list of valid apparel color options, see the [[Dye]] page.

The color of the ideoligion can be set at generation, while a pawn's favorite color is determined when the pawn is generated.{{Check Tag|Children?|Confirm when children gain a favorite color}} Apparel can be dyed at the [[styling station]] for one [[dye]] per piece of apparel. Note that unlike with preferred apparel, outside of the [[Man in Black]] event, pawns will not necessarily spawn wearing color that matches their ideoligion or preferred colors.

== Xenotype preferences ==
{{Biotech|section=1}}
{{Stub|section=1|reason= Needs proper write up. Test if specific to Sanguophage or the implanter gene.}}
Believers consider this xenotype to hold a higher moral or spiritual status than others. They will be happy if their colony has only preferred xenotypes. However, having any preferred xenotypes means that all other xenotypes are considered disliked and believers will be unhappy living alongside them.

Up to three [[Xenotypes]] can be selected as preferred xenotypes, including baseliner and a custom xenotype. If at least one is selected then a positive mood will be generated if every colonist is a preferred type, but a negative scaling mood if even one colonist is not a preferred type.

Believers will not accept becoming a non-preferred xenotype via reimplant ability or [[xenogerm]]s. If [[Sanguophage]] is not a preferred type and at least one other preferred type is set, colonists will refuse Sanguophage xenogerm implantation and quests that award Sanguophage xenogerm will fail to give the reward.{{Check Tag|Fail?|Will not offer that as a reward? Will generate as a reward but not give it? Will not generate the quest? Will not generate the option that would be to receive the xenogerm? Will replace it with something else?}}

Opinion:
* Preferred xenotype: {{+|10}}
* Disliked xenotype: {{--|30}}

Mood:
* All preferred xenotype: {{+|2}}
* Some disliked xenotypes: {{--|2}}
* Many disliked xenotypes: {{--|3}}
* Tons of disliked xenotypes: {{--|4}}
* I am disliked xenotype<: {{--|6}}

== Venerated animals ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=General stub. Also: Check body size requirements. Add Table of options with bodysize and hunger/body size}}
{{Quote|This animal is considered by believers to hold a special spiritual or moral status, which means it must be venerated and may never be harmed.|Description}}
An ideoligion can have up to 18 venerated [[animal]]s.

Colonists will not hunt or attack venerated animals with ranged weapons (but will attack them in melee), unless the animal is in manhunter mood. They will not slaughter tame venerated animals.

Colonists will butcher venerated animals without any issue, but will refuse to eat their [[meat]] or any meal made with it (including meals stacked together), even when starving. They can be manually ordered to eat such food, but will get -8 mood for 5 days. If a colonist that venerates an animal is unconscious, other colonists (of any ideoligion) will not feed them such food, and '''cannot''' be manually ordered to do so. Colonists take no issue using [[leather]], [[wool]], [[milk]], or [[eggs]] of the venerated animal.

Colonists will get -5 mood for 5 days if a tame venerated animal dies for any reason. Releasing tame animals is fine.

Colonists will get a positive thought for the amount of tame venerated animals in the colony, depending on their total body size divided by the total number of colonists: +2 for 1 or more, +3 for 2 or more, +4 for 4 or more, and +5 for 6 or more. In case of multiple venerated animals, all their body sizes are added together, producing a single thought. All colonists are counted for this, but only those of an appropriate ideoligion will get the thought.

Despite being tameable, [[Insectoids]] cannot be selected as a venerated animal.

Venerated animals are twice as easy to tame.

== Hair and tattoos ==
An ideoligion has associated hairstyles, beards, and tattoos. Specific hairstyles and tattoos may be allowed for men, women, or either. Some of those may be more or less common.

Newly spawned pawns of an ideoligion will always have matching appearance.

If pawn's hairstyle, beard, or tattoo do not match what their ideoligion allows (usually as a result of a conversion), they will try to use [[styling station]] on their free time to automatically change their looks, and will have a -??{{Check Tag|Value?}} mood penalty until they do so. They can also be sent to adjust their appearance manually.

== Version history ==

Ideoligion

2025-01-26T21:03:34Z

Daylong698: /* Buildings */ Wrote Buildings section

{{Ideology}}
'''Ideoligions''' are both a system of mechanics introduced by, and the primary focus of, the [[Ideology DLC]]. They allow colonies to introduce a variety of new restrictions and capabilities to change gameplay, as well as new interactions with other factions.
{{TOCright}}

== Type of ideoligion ==
Whenever you start a new game, you will see the Ideology selection menu once you've selected a world tile.

* '''Ideology system inactive''' - Disables most of the Ideology system. Player colonies and factions will no longer have any ideoligion. With this option, you can create any ''style'', or cosmetic variant, of building (click the circle icon in the [[Architect]] tab, right next to the search bar).
:However, some aspects of the ideoligion system remain. You can still assign a [[Leader]], and will have access to a funeral and 2 [[ritual]]s - a dance party and drum party.{{Check Tag|Verify|Extremely quick testing}} In addition, there will be 3 randomized [[relic]]s that you can search for.

* '''Create ideoligion (fluid)''' - Design an ideoligion that can change over time.
:A fluid ideoligion only has access to 1 [[meme]] at the start of the game, which cannot be a high impact meme. Otherwise, a fluid ideoligion has the same customization options as a fixed ideoligion. The difference is that a fluid ideology can change over the course of the game. As you gain [[#Development points|development points]], you can add / remove memes, and re-customize just about everything else.

* '''Create ideoligion (fixed)''' - Design an ideoligion with complete control.

* '''Presets''' - Use an ideoligion already created for you. Want to live under the mountain, but don't want to make a full ideoligion? Pick the "Mole people" preset. You will start with a Funeral and 2 other random [[ritual]]s, as well as a random [[relic]]. Other aspects of the ideoligion will also be randomized.
:For example, the "Classic-like" preset will have the following precepts:
<div style="column-count:2; width:600px">
* [[#Corpses|Corpses: Ugly]]
* [[#Insect meat|Insect meat: Despised]]
* [[#Marriage name|Marriage name: Usually man's]]
* [[#Eating nutrient paste|Eating nutrient paste: Disgusting]]
* [[#Physical love|Physical love: Free]]
* [[#Women's spouses|Women's spouses: One only]]
* [[#Men's spouses|Men's spouses: One only]]
</div>

=== Development points ===
{{For|a guide for how to convert a non-fluid ideoligion to a fluid ideoligion via save editing|Fluid ideoligion save conversion guide}}
Fluid ideoligions are mostly the same as a static one, but can be changed over time through development points. When you have enough points, you can reform the ideoligion. It costs 10 points for the first reformation, and increases by +2 per reform until a max of 20 points. You cannot "store" points; once you can reform, no more points are gained.

Development points can be obtained in the following ways:
* Performing [[rituals]]. Rituals will give a varying amount of points depending on if they are "anytime" rituals or "dated" rituals, how many rituals the ideoligion has and the quality of the ritual. If a ritual achieves a goal that awards development points (such as a conversion), both the points for the goal and the ritual are received in full. Anytime rituals (including funerals) give 1 point for a good outcome and 2 points for a great outcome.
Dated rituals grant more points the fewer rituals the ideoligion has, -as detailed below- however Funerals, Gladiator Duels, Blinding, and Scarification rituals '''''Do not''''' count for the following table.

Reformation allows you to add ''or'' remove 1 meme, ''or'' change the structure of your ideoligion. If you add a meme, you cannot remove / replace another meme or change structure. In addition, you can only add 1 [[style]] at a time. All other changes are unlimited.

== Forming an ideoligion ==
An ideoligion consists of many separate aspects to customize:

'''Primary'''
* '''[[#Structure|Structure]]''' - What deities (or lack thereof) that followers believe in. Examples include ''Abstract theist'', that "god(s) are formless and everywhere", or ''Christian origin'', which is closer to the Abrahamic religions of the west. Structure helps determine the randomized names and lore of your ideoligion. This is almost entirely cosmetic, but can add a few ritual options.

* '''[[#Memes|Memes]]''' - The basic beliefs of the ideoligion. An ideoligion with the ''Cannibal'' meme will definitely enjoy human meat. Each ideoligion can have up to 4 memes. Most memes do not add much on their own, but affect what precepts the ideoligion has and cannot have. Some memes have access to [[roles|specialists]].

* '''[[#Precepts|Precepts]]''' - What a follower's belief systems are. Precepts directly determine how colonists will react to certain actions. An ideoligion with ''Cannibalism: Preferred'' will have followers enjoy eating human meat. An ideoligion with ''Cannibalism: Required (Ravenous)'' will want to eat human meat for every meal.
:Certain precepts have statistical effects beyond mood. For instance, ''Drugs: Essential'' boosts drug crop yield, synthesis speed, and sell price. These tend to be locked behind their associated meme.

'''Secondary'''
* '''[[Rituals]]''' - Special occasions, from Dance Party to Animal Sacrifice to Funerals. Every time you do a ritual, you can end up with a good or bad outcome. Good outcomes will increase colonist [[mood]], and come with a special, defined reward. For example, a spectacular festival can give you a random recruit, or cause a [[gauranlen pod]] to sprout.

:You can increase the chances of a good outcomes by following the ritual's requirements. A funeral can be done without your colonist's body, but the quality will be increased if the corpse is buried.

* '''[[#Roles|Roles]]''' - Every ideoligion has a Leader and Moral Guide. From there, you can have up to 2 types of specialists. A Shooting Specialist will be great at ranged combat, but is unable to do many types of skilled work. Note that you can have as many specialists of a specific type as you want. For example, you can have 3 Shooting Specialists in a single colony, but cannot have a Shooting, Plants, AND Research specialist in the same ideoligion.

* '''[[Relic]]s''' - Ideoligions can have relics. Relics can be either Legendary [[quality]] weapons or specific types of items that serve no other purpose. Relics must be found from a specific, multi-part relic hunt quest, which can take many years. Having a relic present will cause a number of benefits.

* '''Buildings''' - Buildings used by your ideoligion: [[altar]]s, [[sacrificial flag]]s, etc. Largely used for rituals. Altars and the like will eventually be demanded by followers of your ideoligion in a temple room.

* '''Preferences''' - Ideoligions can prefer [[apparel]], [[weapon]]s, and [[xenotype]]s {{BiotechIcon}}, as well as venerate specific [[animal]]s. Colonists will like having/being around preferred items. Whenever a colonist will dislike a non-preferred item is dependent on the preference in question.

'''Descriptive'''
* '''[[#Styles|Styles]]''' - How buildings made by an ideoligious builder will look. Largely cosmetic. However, it interacts with the Diversity of Thought precept. If colonists are neutral or bigoted, then they will enjoy being near styles of the same ideoligion. If colonists appreciate Diversity of Thought, they will enjoy being near styled buildings that their ideoligion could not make. Certain styles will affect more or less buildings.

* '''[[#Cultures|Cultures]]''' - Roughly where your ideoligion comes from. Astropolitian represents those coming from space. Corunan represents [[New Tribe|tribes]] in general. Entirely cosmetic.

* '''Lore''' - A randomly generated description of the ideoligion, based off of memes, structures, cultures, etc. Entirely cosmetic.

* '''Icon / color''' - An ideoligion's icon is used whenever an ideology will be displayed. The color of the icon will be a preferred color for followers. Followers gain a {{+|1}} moodlet for wearing their ideology's color, or their own favorite color. All colors require [[dye]] and the same amount of dye.

== Certainty ==
{{Split|destination=Certainty|reason=Would benefit from having a space for Analyis and strategies as well as more displays of how different stats really affect conversion times. example strats: forcing crises of faith, stacking convert power buffs, gene modding the convertee to have the Kind and Wimp traits etc. Leave section here with summary, and a [[Template:Main]] link to the oage. redirect [[Conversion]] there too}}
{{See also|Conversion Power|Global Certainty Loss Factor}}
'''Certainty''' is how willing a colonist is to maintain their current ideoligion. Conversion attempts reduce certainty. Once certainty hits 0%, a pawn's ideology will change.
=== Reassurance ===
Certainty increases by a set rate per day, which is dependent on current [[mood]].
* 1% / day at 20% mood or less
* 2% / day at 50% mood
* 3% / day at 80% mood or more
Between 20% and 80% mood, certainty gain is linearly interpolated.
Certainty does not regenerate while [[deathrest]]ing.{{BiotechIcon}}{{Check Tag|What else?|What else pauses reassurance}}
The [[Moral guide]] of an ideoligion can also reassure pawns of the same ideoligion, which increases certainty based on [[Conversion Power]].
If a pawn is converted, then they will start with 50% certainty in their new ideoligion.
=== Conversion ===
These ways to lower certainty are all considered "Conversion". The certainty reduction is increased by the converter's [[Conversion Power]], and decreased by the user's [[Global Certainty Loss Factor]]. Conversion strength is then multiplied by relevant [[trait]]s. For example, an [[Undergrounder]] will be harder to convert from an ideology with the Tunneler meme.
* Pawns will naturally try to convert each other during day-to-day conversation. This is governed by the [[Ideoligion Spread Chance]], which is increased by the [[#Proselytizing|Proselytizing]] precept.
* The [[role]] of [[Moral guide]] has a "Convert" ability. This is the same as normal conversion, but done on command. This has a cooldown of 3 days.
* If a pawn is held [[prisoner]], you can set the prisoner to Convert in the Prisoner. If there is a warden of the selected ideoligion available, they will start converting the prisoner.
The certainty reduction of a convert attempt can be calculated as follows:
{| class="wikitable"
| '''Certainty loss''' = 6% × [[Conversion Power]] of the Converter × If Converter is [[#Moral Guide|Moral Guide]] ({{Good|x2}}) × [[Global Certainty Loss Factor]] of Convertee × Relic Conversion Power Factor × Trait/Meme Agreeableness × AI Storyteller's Low pop conversion boost multiplier
|}
*'''Relic conversion factor:'''
{| class="wikitable"
! Relic Conversion Power Factor
|-
| {{Graph:Chart|width=200|height=200|yAxisMin=|xAxisMax=10| yAxisTitle=Conversion Power Factor|xAxisTitle=Relics in Reliquaries (#)|type=line|x=0, 1, 3, 5, 10 |y1=1.00, 1.10, 1.20, 1.25, 1.30}}
|}
'''Other certainty reduction''':
These ways reduce certainty by a set percentage. Reduction is not (directly) impacted by Conversion Power or Certainty Loss Factor.
* [[Rituals#Conversion ritual|Conversion ritual]]. Requires a Moral Guide. An effective conversion ritual reduces certainty by 30%. A masterful conversion ritual instantly converts the user to the desired ideoligion. Poor quality rituals instead ''increase'' certainty. The quality of the ritual increases the chance of an effective/masterful ritual; quality is increased by [[Social Impact]] of the moral guide, among other factors.
* [[Crisis of belief]] is an extreme [[mental break]] which immediately reduces certainty by 50%. If certainty reaches 0%, then the pawn will convert to a ''random'' ideoligion - even if you've attempted to convert them to a specific ideoligion prior. Notably, crisis of belief is one of 2 mental breaks that [[prisoner]]s associated with another faction are able to go through. (Colonists who have been arrested can go through other breaks)
* A [[Rituals#Throne speech|throne speech]]{{RoyaltyIcon}} can convert listeners to the speaker's ideoligion.{{Check Tag|Verify|Detail, too}}
[[Children]]{{BiotechIcon}} are a unique case of conversion, as babies have no ideoligion and one is assigned to them once they turn 3. For a more detailed description of how the ideoligion of a child is determined, see the [[Children#Ideoligion|Children]] page.

== Structure ==
Choosing your structure affects which symbols the game uses for your ideoligion, and allows for the selection of some rituals that would otherwise require specific memes. It also influences some random generation options and flavor text but these can be overridden by player selection.

== Styles ==
An ideoligion can have 0-3 associated styles. People belonging to that ideoligion will apply those styles when making specific items. Colonists will get thoughts based on the styles of the objects around them, depending on their ideoligion's [[#Diversity of thought|diversity of thought]] precept either for having surroundings match or not match their ideoligion. Neutral surroundings produce no thought. If multiple styles of an ideoligion affect the same object, left-most applies. Note that building appearance in the construction menu will be based on your primary ideoligion, but the actual building might be different if built by a pawn of a different ideoligion.

=== Style dominance ===
Pawns consider objects with style dominance within 27 tiles outdoors, or in the same room regardless of distance. An item is considered "uniform" if pawn's ideoligion can build it, and "diverse" otherwise, regardless of the actual style: for example, a totemic table will be considered diverse for an ideoligion with morbid and totemic styles, because the morbid style overrides totemic tables. If the total style dominance of uniform or diverse objects is at least 10 more than the other category, pawns will get an appropriate thought; the actual style of the object does not matter for stacking either: a morbid slab and a totemic slab in the same room will be uniform for an ideoligion with both styles, cancel each other out and give no thought for an ideoligion with one of those styles, and diverse for an ideoligion with neither.

An ideoligion with no styles would still consider its own buildings (such as ideogram), but not ritual seats, to be uniform.

Clothing, whether worn or placed on the ground, and uninstalled objects have no impact on style dominance.

== Memes ==
You must choose one to four memes at the beginning of your playthrough to form the foundational ideas of your ideoligion. Some have much more gameplay impact than others. Hovering over a meme will show you the information in this table.

<nowiki/>* Appears on faction's options but conflicts with required meme 
<nowiki/>** Since only two memes available, one of Individualist OR Collectivist must be chosen 
<nowiki/>*** Only restricts what memes can be auto-generated and loaded from saved ideoligions, can otherwise lack or possess any memes

=== Natural goodwill with other factions ===
Additionally, Supremacist and Raider have {{Bad|-50}} with everyone, Loyalist {{Bad|-10}} with everyone, and Guilty {{Good|+10}} with everyone. There is a {{Good|+10}} bonus for having the same ideoligion.

Modifiers stack, but each pair only applies once; for example Flesh purity + Cannibal vs Flesh purity + Cannibal give {{Good|+10}} for Flesh purity/Flesh purity, {{Good|+10}} for Cannibal/Cannibal, and {{Good|+10}} for Flesh purity/Cannibal.

== Precepts ==
{{Recode|reason=Convert mood descriptions to [[Template: Thought]]. {{Error|DO NOT}} convert without adequate detail to fully utilize the template, including max stack count, duration etc.}}
Associated precepts have a chance to appear if a meme is present, but can still be removed if not required.

Some precepts are available to all ideologies, some require at least one of the enabling memes, and some may be unavailable if certain memes are present.

=== Present in every ideoligion ===
There are 19 issues (precept categories) that are present in every ideoligion and may not be removed. However, their level may be changed. They include "basic" precepts from the base game, used in "Play Classic".

Additionally, each ideoligion grants up to 2 types of [[specialist]]s; a role that grants large bonuses and abilities related to a specific field in exchange of inability of doing one or more types of work. This limitation only applies to the type of specialization, not the total number of specialists.

Relics are objects revered by your ideoligion. To obtain them you need to go through a series of quests. If you take control of them, they give various boni to your colony. When placed in a [[Reliquary]], pilgrims of your ideoligion will visit your colony to pay reverence to the relic.

== Apparel preferences ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Missing several details inc but not limited to how it spawns on pawns}}
Some kinds{{Check Tag|Detail needed|Needs a list of what kinds can and cannot be preferred}} of [[apparel]] can be set as preferred. The player can set any of these pieces to be desired for men, women, or both, and can choose between a relaxed and strong desire. Multiple kinds{{Check Tag|Cap?|What's the limit?}} of apparel can be chosen.

Pawns that are wearing all of their desired apparel will gain a small mood bonus of {{+|1}} for a relaxed desire, and {{+|2}} for a strong desire. There is no difference in the mood bonus for having multiple pieces of desired apparel in the ideology, the bonus is only for wearing all of their desired apparel. Unlike role-specific apparel, there is no mood penalty for not wearing desired apparel.

Pawns that have desired apparel may spawn wearing it. The criteria for this are not fully understood, but pawnkinds that do not spawn with apparel that occupies the coverage and layer of the item preferred by the ideoligion appear to always spawn with the item. If the pawnkind does have conflicting apparel that may, or is required to, spawn, then a portion of those pawnkinds will spawn with the apparel. This can lead to knock-on effects, such as some Empire [[Empire#Cataphract|Cataphracts]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} spawning with hats in place of their [[cataphract helmet|helmets]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} making them weaker in combat. Note that this also applies to colonist spawns, including at game start. In any case, it is unknown if this is limited by the apparel value limits imposed on some pawnkinds.

Ideoligions have an ideoligion color. Pawns gain a gain a {{+|1}} mood buff if more than 60% of a colonist's apparel is their favorite color or the color of their ideoligion. If their favorite color and their ideoligion's color are the same, they will gain both mood buffs for a total of {{+|2}}. For a full list of valid apparel color options, see the [[Dye]] page.

The color of the ideoligion can be set at generation, while a pawn's favorite color is determined when the pawn is generated.{{Check Tag|Children?|Confirm when children gain a favorite color}} Apparel can be dyed at the [[styling station]] for one [[dye]] per piece of apparel. Note that unlike with preferred apparel, outside of the [[Man in Black]] event, pawns will not necessarily spawn wearing color that matches their ideoligion or preferred colors.

== Xenotype preferences ==
{{Biotech|section=1}}
{{Stub|section=1|reason= Needs proper write up. Test if specific to Sanguophage or the implanter gene.}}
Believers consider this xenotype to hold a higher moral or spiritual status than others. They will be happy if their colony has only preferred xenotypes. However, having any preferred xenotypes means that all other xenotypes are considered disliked and believers will be unhappy living alongside them.

Up to three [[Xenotypes]] can be selected as preferred xenotypes, including baseliner and a custom xenotype. If at least one is selected then a positive mood will be generated if every colonist is a preferred type, but a negative scaling mood if even one colonist is not a preferred type.

Believers will not accept becoming a non-preferred xenotype via reimplant ability or [[xenogerm]]s. If [[Sanguophage]] is not a preferred type and at least one other preferred type is set, colonists will refuse Sanguophage xenogerm implantation and quests that award Sanguophage xenogerm will fail to give the reward.{{Check Tag|Fail?|Will not offer that as a reward? Will generate as a reward but not give it? Will not generate the quest? Will not generate the option that would be to receive the xenogerm? Will replace it with something else?}}

Opinion:
* Preferred xenotype: {{+|10}}
* Disliked xenotype: {{--|30}}

Mood:
* All preferred xenotype: {{+|2}}
* Some disliked xenotypes: {{--|2}}
* Many disliked xenotypes: {{--|3}}
* Tons of disliked xenotypes: {{--|4}}
* I am disliked xenotype<: {{--|6}}

== Venerated animals ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=General stub. Also: Check body size requirements. Add Table of options with bodysize and hunger/body size}}
{{Quote|This animal is considered by believers to hold a special spiritual or moral status, which means it must be venerated and may never be harmed.|Description}}
An ideoligion can have up to 18 venerated [[animal]]s.

Colonists will not hunt or attack venerated animals with ranged weapons (but will attack them in melee), unless the animal is in manhunter mood. They will not slaughter tame venerated animals.

Colonists will butcher venerated animals without any issue, but will refuse to eat their [[meat]] or any meal made with it (including meals stacked together), even when starving. They can be manually ordered to eat such food, but will get -8 mood for 5 days. If a colonist that venerates an animal is unconscious, other colonists (of any ideoligion) will not feed them such food, and '''cannot''' be manually ordered to do so. Colonists take no issue using [[leather]], [[wool]], [[milk]], or [[eggs]] of the venerated animal.

Colonists will get -5 mood for 5 days if a tame venerated animal dies for any reason. Releasing tame animals is fine.

Colonists will get a positive thought for the amount of tame venerated animals in the colony, depending on their total body size divided by the total number of colonists: +2 for 1 or more, +3 for 2 or more, +4 for 4 or more, and +5 for 6 or more. In case of multiple venerated animals, all their body sizes are added together, producing a single thought. All colonists are counted for this, but only those of an appropriate ideoligion will get the thought.

Despite being tameable, [[Insectoids]] cannot be selected as a venerated animal.

Venerated animals are twice as easy to tame.

== Hair and tattoos ==
An ideoligion has associated hairstyles, beards, and tattoos. Specific hairstyles and tattoos may be allowed for men, women, or either. Some of those may be more or less common.

Newly spawned pawns of an ideoligion will always have matching appearance.

If pawn's hairstyle, beard, or tattoo do not match what their ideoligion allows (usually as a result of a conversion), they will try to use [[styling station]] on their free time to automatically change their looks, and will have a -??{{Check Tag|Value?}} mood penalty until they do so. They can also be sent to adjust their appearance manually.

== Version history ==

A '''Ritual spot''' is a ritual focus added by the [[Ideology DLC]].

== Acquisition ==
Ritual spots do not require a colonist to construct or [[deconstruct]], nor is there a cost, build time, or [[skill]] requirements for placing them. Instead, they are simply selected from the menu and placed directly by the player.

== Summary ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Missing a lot of mechanical detail}}
The purpose of a ritual spot is to give access to rituals early game before access to ideograms, or when rituals must be outside.

== Analysis ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=General. also specifically value proposition of alternatives, when to change over etc}}
The ritual spot is useful in the early game when you haven't built any religious structures, as it can be placed instantly and for free. It is also very useful for [[rituals]] that must be outdoors, such as the [[Rituals#Skylantern_festival|Skylantern festival]].

== Version history ==
* [[Ideology DLC]] Release - Added.

{{Image wanted}}
{{About|regular rituals|Psychic Rituals added by the [[Anomaly]] DLC|Psychic ritual}}
'''Rituals''' are primarily options for [[ideoligions]] {{IdeologyIcon}}, with a handful available through other DLC {{RoyaltyIcon}}{{BiotechIcon}}. They allow pawns to participate, with a variety of props, in the hope of eliciting some outcome. These outcomes range from simple but significant mood boosts to attracting new recruits to the colony.

== Mechanics ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=General mechanics.}}
Every ritual has a Quality, expressed as a percentage, associated with it. This value is influenced by a set of factors unique to each ritual type and determines the chance of positive and negative outcomes, with some ritual effects scaling to the outcome tier and others applying only at specific tiers.

Do note that Quality is '''not''' the chance of success. 100% Quality only means that the chance of success cannot be improved further.

The exact relationship between quality and success chance is not known, however the following approximation has been created through testing.

Quality expressed as a number between 0 and 1; so 100%=1; 50%=0.5;
* Terrible: 1/(4+(16×Q))
* Boring: 3/(4+(16×Q))
* Fun: 3×Q/(1+(4×Q))
* Unforgettable: Q/(1+(4×Q))

=== Ritual roles ===
Every ritual has one or more roles for pawns to fill - some are required for the ritual to occur, such as the gladiators in the [[Rituals#Gladiator duel|gladiator duel]], others are optional and either increase the quality of the ritual, apply the potential bonuses to the attending pawns, or both. Some ritual roles can be filled by multiple pawns at the same time, while others are limited to one pawn.

Some ritual roles have additional requirements, such as the pawn being of the correct ideoligion, being the correct ideoligious [[role]], not being [[downed]], or having sufficient [[capacity]].

Pawns can spectate any ritual, regardless of whether their ideoligion matches that of the ritual itself.

=== Ideoligious ritual additional rewards ===
{{Ideology|section=1}}
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Details}}
When creating a ritual for an ideoligion, you have the option of adding a custom additional reward. If the ritual achieves either of the two positive outcomes (fun or unforgettable, or their equivalents), the bonus reward will trigger in addition to the ritual-specific rewards.

None of the additional rewards can be applied to the funeral ritual. {{Check Tag|Verify}}

== Overview table ==
{{Ritual table}}

== Analysis ==
=== Funeral ===
This is the only ritual involving the (possible) non-player caused death. It is generally considered the worst ritual, as it requires the death of a pawn - an expensive cost when other rituals are available with the same effects.

=== Social festival ===

=== Dance party ===
This is tied with "drum party" for the most "success bonuses" and shortest cooldown.

=== Skylantern festival ===
<gallery>
Skylantern Festival.png|Pawns celebrating the Skylantern festival by releasing skylanterns.
</gallery>

=== Christmas tree ===

=== Symbol burning ===

=== Smokeleaf circle ===
The ritual indirectly results in your colonists getting the [[Smokeleaf joint#Stoned on smokeleaf|stoned on smokeleaf]] condition, which applies to them for approximately 18 hours. This results in a -30% consciousness debuff, making participants slow and ineffective workers or combatants. An unforgettable festival gives only a +8 mood buff (plus a short-lived mood buff from Stoned on Smokeleaf), so it is less effective for mood than dance or drum festivals. Furthermore, costing {{Icon small|Smokeleaf leaves}} 150, the [[Burnbong]] is the equivalent of 37.5 smokeleaf joints.

=== Cannibal feast ===

=== Scarification ===

Is a ritual that will add scarification to a random part of the person who will get the scarification will get a mood buff of 'Got scarified' depending on what intensity of scarification in the ideology.

=== Blinding ceremony ===
This ritual causes significant pain, enough to incapacitate a Wimp. If the target gets incapacitated by the painshock, the ritual will be canceled. Giving a Wimp target go-juice before the ritual will prevent painshock and allow the ritual to proceed.

=== Animal sacrifice ===
Animal sacrifice does not cause the violent death penalty for butchering, and is thus an alternative to slaughtering.

=== Gladiator duel ===
This ritual always has 100% quality if one of the fighters dies. There are a number of ways to maximize the chances of that happening:
* Give the fighters [[go-juice]] or [[yayo]]. Getting downed by pain shock will end the ritual with a lower score. A [[war mask]], [[veil]], or [[cultist mask]] would also help. You can also use [[Painblock]].
* Place a single melee weapon in the ring. One of the duelists will have an advantage and there will be a {{+|20%}} ''Weapon used'' quality bonus even if nobody dies. Note that duelists must have a [[manipulation]] [[capacity]] greater than 0% to pick up a weapon. [[Body part weapons]] do not count for this bonus.
* Choose one fighter with a high and the other with a low [[Melee]] skill to give the first one an advantage.
* Remove '''one''' of the weaker fighter's hands. Do not remove both as pawns with 0% Manipulation cannot participate in the ritual.

You can also minimize the chance of that happening:
* You'll want to increase the [[pain]] level and lower the [[pain shock threshold]]. Give the fighters a [[torture crown]] or a [[mindscrew]]. Maybe some scars. Send a couple wimps to fight. Send a couple people that are already close to being downed, with no injuries to critical organs or the head.
* If you do give them weapons, give them something blunt with low maximum damage, like a wood [[club]].
* Give them some serious armor.

Strip both gladiators before battle to prevent any clothes becoming [[tainted]] when they die. You can also pre-equip them with [[tainted]] clothes so that's not a problem.

As adding the [[Ideoligion#Raider|Raider]] or [[Supremacist]] memes to an ideoligion automatically adds the Gladiator Duel ritual, it can be used to exceed the normal limit of 6 rituals. Simply have 6 non-gladiator duel rituals already enabled, and add the relevant meme either at creation or using a fluid ideoligion. Note that if you remove a ritual at any time, you will have to restart the process as it will still attempt to impose the 6 ritual limit.

[[Wild man|Wild men]] cannot be used in gladiator duels, even if imprisoned.

[[Child]]{{BiotechIcon}} [[slave]]s cannot be used, nor can child [[prisoner]]s.

=== Prisoner execution ===
Execute a prisoner. Increases the suppression of [[slaves]]

=== Trial ===

=== Conversion ritual ===
Reduce a pawns [[certainty]], or outright convert a pawn to your ideoligion.

=== Tree connection ===

The '''harbinger tree''' is a [[tree]] added by the [[Anomaly DLC]] that consumes [[meat]] and [[corpse]]s to fuel their own growth.

== Occurrence ==
Harbinger trees can spawn randomly from an event after activating the [[Void monolith]], spawned by the [[void provocation]] psychic ritual, or can be planted via a [[Harbinger seed]] which can be acquired as a [[quest]] reward or bought from traders. The random event that spawns harbringer trees will not trigger if Ambient Horror is selected in [[AI Storytellers#Anomaly|Storyteller]] settings. 

== Summary ==
Harbinger trees consume [[corpse]]s, [[meat]] and [[skull]]s placed around them. They can eat both rotten and fresh corpses, as well as all forms of raw meat ([[insect meat|insect]], [[human meat|human]], [[twisted meat|twisted]]). Harbinger trees will not consume [[pemmican]] or [[meals]] of any type.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
| [[File:Create Corpse Stockpile.png|frameless|none]] || When you select a harbinger tree, a UI button for creating a corpse stockpile appears.

This button creates a [[dumping stockpile]] around the tree, within the consumption radius of the tree (3).

By default, it accepts almost all fresh, or rotten corpses:
* Humanlike corpses, except [[unnatural corpse]]s
* Animal corpses
* Entity corpses
By default, it does not accept:
* [[Mechanoid]] corpses
|}

When fully grown and harvested, they provide {{Icon Small|Twisted meat|30|30}} [[twisted meat]] and a base amount of {{Icon Small|Bioferrite|30|15}} [[bioferrite]]. Trees that are not harvested and destroyed through other means will drop twisted meat but no bioferrite. The amount of twisted meat dropped is unaffected by difficulty setting and pawn plants skill, but the amount of bioferrite harvested is affected by both.

A harbinger tree is not dangerous in any way and despite the flavor text does not cause any events or phenomena beyond consuming corpses.

The growth rate of a harbinger tree will increase up to a maximum 150% during the day while it is actively consuming meat. Each individual harbinger tree tracks the nutrition it has consumed, and upon reaching 100, it will spawn a new sapling, regardless if the original tree is fully grown. Upon reaching maturity, a harbinger tree has a chance to spawn another harbinger tree nearby. A body size 1 human corpse provides a harbinger tree 5.2 nutrition, meaning that ~19.2 corpses are needed to force a second harbinger tree to sprout. A single piece of meat has a nutrition of .05, requiring 2,000 meat total to spawn a new tree. The new tree will preferentially spawn near the original tree but will spawn elsewhere on the map if a nearby tile is not available. The closet a new tree will spawn is within 4 orthogonal tiles of the original. A new tree will not spawn within 2 tiles of a wall but can spawn adjacent to player placed floors.

Despite both being [[dendrovore]]s, [[thrumbo]]s will not eat harbinger trees, while [[alphabeaver]]s will.

== Analysis ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Bioferrite production analysis}}
Harbinger trees provide a low-tech, no power method to get rid of corpses without using fire or an [[electric crematorium]]. All gear worn by consumed corpses is destroyed, similar to cremation.

This is vital for tribal or low-tech settlements who want to reduce the number of potential [[Shambler]]s on the map during a [[Death pall]] or similar event, as there is no limit to the number of times a corpse can be turned into a shambler. Note that shamblers can still reanimate from corpses in the process of being consumed by harbinger trees, however said shamblers will be weakened since non-vital bodyparts digested by harbinger trees will not regenerate on reanimation.

Later on, harbinger trees can be used as a source of [[twisted meat]] for mid and late game recipes like the [[juggernaut serum]] without having to fight and butcher dangerous entities like [[fleshbeast]]s. It is impractical to farm harbinger trees using meat farmed from ranching or hunting, although colonies experiencing massive raids may be able to meet their serum production needs off the yield from harbinger trees alone. A single [[Fleshmass nucleus]] produces significantly more twisted meat in a more consistent manner, but requires regular suppression and defeating a [[Fleshmass heart]] to acquire.

The '''harbinger tree''' is a [[tree]] added by the [[Anomaly DLC]] that consumes [[meat]] and [[corpse]]s to fuel their own growth.

== Occurrence ==
Harbinger trees can spawn randomly from an event after activating the [[Void monolith]], spawned by the [[void provocation]] psychic ritual, or can be planted via a [[Harbinger seed]] which can be acquired as a [[quest]] reward or bought from traders. The random event that spawns harbringer trees will not trigger if Ambient Horror is selected in [[AI Storytellers#Anomaly|Storyteller]] settings. 

== Summary ==
Harbinger trees consume [[corpse]]s, [[meat]] and [[skull]]s placed around them. They can eat both rotten and fresh corpses, as well as all forms of raw meat ([[insect meat|insect]], [[human meat|human]], [[twisted meat|twisted]]). Harbinger trees will not consume [[pemmican]] or [[meals]] of any type.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
| [[File:Create Corpse Stockpile.png|frameless|none]] || When you select a harbinger tree, a UI button for creating a corpse stockpile appears.

This button creates a [[dumping stockpile]] around the tree, within the consumption radius of the tree (3).

By default, it accepts almost all fresh, or rotten corpses:
* Humanlike corpses, except [[unnatural corpse]]s
* Animal corpses
* Entity corpses
By default, it does not accept:
* [[Mechanoid]] corpses
|}

When fully grown and harvested, they provide {{Icon Small|Twisted meat|30|30}} [[twisted meat]] and a base amount of {{Icon Small|Bioferrite|30|15}} [[bioferrite]]. Trees that are not harvested and destroyed through other means will drop twisted meat but no bioferrite. The amount of twisted meat dropped is unaffected by difficulty setting and pawn plants skill, but the amount of bioferrite harvested is affected by both.

A harbinger tree is not dangerous in any way and despite the flavor text does not cause any events or phenomena beyond consuming corpses.

The growth rate of a harbinger tree will increase up to a maximum 150% during the day while it is actively consuming meat. Each individual harbinger tree tracks the nutrition it has consumed, and upon reaching 100, it will spawn a new sapling, regardless if the original tree is fully grown. Upon reaching maturity, a harbinger tree has a chance to spawn another harbinger tree nearby. A body size 1 human corpse provides a harbinger tree 5.2 nutrition, meaning that ~19.2 corpses are needed to force a second harbinger tree to sprout. A single piece of meat has a nutrition of .05, requiring 2,000 meat total to spawn a new tree. The new tree will preferentially spawn near the original tree but will spawn elsewhere on the map if a nearby tile is not available. The closet a new tree will spawn is within 4 orthogonal tiles of the original. A new tree will not spawn within 2 tiles of a wall but can spawn adjacent to player placed floors.

Despite both being [[dendrovore]]s, [[thrumbo]]s will not eat harbinger trees, while [[alphabeaver]]s will.

== Analysis ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Bioferrite production analysis}}
Harbinger trees provide a low-tech, no power method to get rid of corpses without using fire or an [[electric crematorium]]. All gear worn by consumed corpses is destroyed, similar to cremation.

This is vital for tribal or low-tech settlements who want to reduce the number of potential [[Shambler]]s on the map during a [[Death pall]] or similar event, as there is no limit to the number of times a corpse can be turned into a shambler. Note that shamblers can still reanimate from corpses in the process of being consumed by harbinger trees, however said shamblers will be weakened since non-vital bodyparts digested by harbinger trees will not regenerate on reanimation.

Later on, harbinger trees can be used as a source of [[twisted meat]] for mid and late game recipes like the [[juggernaut serum]] without having to fight and butcher dangerous entities like [[fleshbeast]]s. It is impractical to farm harbinger trees using meat farmed from ranching or hunting, although colonies experiencing massive raids may be able to meet their serum production needs off the yield from harbinger trees alone. A single [[Fleshmass nucleus]] produces significantly more twisted meat in a more consistent manner, but requires regular suppression and defeating a [[Fleshmass heart]] to acquire.

{{main|Events}}
Incidental Events are those not triggered by the [[storyteller]]. Instead, these are results of other game mechanics.

For purposes of the wiki, these are divided in good, bad, faction, informational, and social events.

== Good ==
Good Incidental events are generally positive or neutral in nature.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-IncidentalGood" style="display:inline-block;background:rgba(128,128,128,0.5);color:white;padding:10px;border-radius:5px;outline:none;user-select:none">Show Good Incidental Events</div>

<div id="mw-customcollapsible-IncidentalGood" class="mw-collapsible">

==== Friendlies ====
This event can only occur if you are allied with at least one other faction and have enemies on screen. Allied factions may send around fighters to assist you when mutual enemies appear, such as pirates, manhunters or insectoids. They won't assist against factions that they aren't hostile to. Keep in mind that friendly fire will damage your relations with the aiding faction. On the other hand, rescuing their downed people will improve relations.

There are two versions of the friendlies event. The first is sent by an allied faction at 0 cost. These friendlies are [[raider]]s who are allied with you. They can arrive via any method and use the usual [[raid points]] system to determine their size.

The second can be called in instantly via [[comms console]], at the cost of -25 [[goodwill]]. The faction must be allied with you, and have an Industrial tech level or higher. These allies will always arrive through [[drop pod]], and can use any arrival method with drop pods. Unlike the random event, these friendlies are set with a strength between 150 - 400 [[raid points]], instead of using the raid points of your colony.

==== Masterwork ====
{{For|more details|Quality#How quality is determined}}
One of your colonists has produced an object of masterwork [[quality]].

==== Legendary work ====
{{For|more details|Quality#Legendary items}}
One of your colonists has produced an object of legendary [[quality]].

==== Man in Black ====
When your colonists are no longer able to defend themselves, a stranger may join the colony to help. As their name indicates, men in black come in a full set of black clothing. They also come wearing a [[flak vest]] and always carry a [[revolver]]. Their skills and traits are fully randomized, but they will always be capable of Violence and Caring, and their favorite color{{IdeologyIcon}} will always be black.

This event is triggered only when all of your colonists are downed at your base, but almost always happens when this is the case. This event can only happen if your colony has ever had at least 3 colonists, which prevents it from appearing in solo colonist starts. This event also has a cooldown of roughly 1 year.

The man in black will not appear on the temporary maps generated for world quests. However, if all your surviving pawns are downed elsewhere, it is possible for the man in black to appear at your base. (Testing is needed to see how these events are affected by allowing multiple colonies in the scenario editor.)

==== New recruit ====
You'll get this notification whenever a Warden has succeeded in recruiting a prisoner. It also appears if a [[#Transport pod crash|transport pod crash]] victim chooses to join your faction.

==== Meteorite ====
A large meteorite has struck ground in the area. It has left behind a lump of [[material]]. During daylight, a large shadow will project on the ground which shrinks as it closes in.

The meteorite will severely damage or kill anything that is below it. Any colonists beneath the meteorite has a small while to escape before they are crushed by it. The map tile will read: Meteorite (incoming).

<gallery widths="250px" heights="250px" class="center" mode="nolines">

File:Meteorite.png|'''Landed meteorite'''
</gallery>

==== Outpost destroyed ====
[[File:Faction destroyed.png|400px|thumb|right|R.I.P. some pirate faction, nobody will remember you.]]

This is the notification that triggers when you successfully defeat all humanlike hostiles in an enemy base after invading them (not counting turrets, which need to be neutralized separately). After this you have a while to capture any prisoners (there is usually at least one building suitable to turn into a cell), treat the wounded, pack up and leave before enemy reinforcements arrive in the form of a raid.

===== Faction defeated =====
Should you destroy all bases of a faction, the notification will say that since you just destroyed the last faction base, the faction no longer exists.

You can still view the defeated faction in the menu, and it will show 'Defeated' below it. They won't send any raids, nor will they send caravans. It should be noted that this does not actually decrease the total frequency of raids you will get, as whether a raid happens or not is determined separately and before a faction is chosen. It just means that the raids will not be from this faction and will be from other factions, and with fewer human factions to choose from the game will start sending more mechanoid raids, which can inadvertently make the game harder if you find mechanoids more difficult.

Destroying and/or befriending all factions will make mechanoids the only remaining threat for all future raids.
{{Clear}}

==== Ransom (Time remaining) ====
This event can only occur if a colonist of yours was captured by another faction.

Another faction captured one of your downed colonists somehow and will release that colonist to you... for a price. Common methods for capturing your colonists include grabbing downed colonists while retreating from a raid or downing an entire caravan.

The offer will be good for 24 game hours. If paid, the colonist will immediately appear on your map border or be sent via drop pod.

==== Rare thrumbos ====
Two to six [[thrumbo]]s will spawn at the edge of the map, staying around for a while to eat anything they can, including your crops, but not including [[anima tree]]s{{RoyaltyIcon}}. The player can attempt to hunt or tame them, both of which are very difficult. If no action is taken, they will leave on their own after a few days. It will not reoccur for 13 days.

==== Reactor ready ====
You have completed the 15 day warm up period for starting a [[ship reactor]]. If the rest of the necessary ship parts have been built, it may now be launched. Raids and sieges will drop considerably after this period is over.

==== Ship chunks ====
This event doesn't have an envelope, but rather appears in the notification bar up top, assuming these chunks don't strike your colony or pawns. One or more [[ship chunk]]s fall onto the map. They can be deconstructed for 5-6 [[component]]s and 20 [[steel]]. Rarely they can punch through roofs, damaging structures near it. Extremely rarely, they can land right on top of a colonist, killing them.

In Beta 18 the ship chunk creates an explosion upon landing. The falling chunks cast shadows on the ground, giving a little time for colonists to move out of the way.

==== Trauma savant ====
This event only has a 12% chance to trigger upon one of your colonists receiving a brain injury.

A colonist has suffered a brain injury and has gained great abilities from it at the cost of others, gaining 50% extra [[manipulation]] while losing the ability to [[talking|speak]], [[hearing|hear]], and have any [[social]] relationships. It also restores the brain to full functioning, despite the injury.

==== Quest completed ====
You've done what was [[quest|requested]] by other factions and will receive the reward at your nearest(?) base via pods very close to your buildings, along with an improvement in relations. While they attempt not to, the pods may also crash through your roof, so be prepared to repair them.

==== Anima tree sprout ====
{{Royalty|section=1}}
If an [[anima tree]] was killed by any means, this event can occur within a few days from the last death of the tree, appearing at random places that are unaffected by its radius.
</div>

== Bad ==
Bad Incidental events are either negative or cautionary in nature.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-IncidentalBad" style="display:inline-block;background:rgba(128,128,128,0.5);color:white;padding:10px;border-radius:5px;outline:none;user-select:none">Show Bad Incidental Events</div>

==== Ancient danger ====
{{main|Ancient shrine}}
{{quote|As (Colonist name) draws near the ancient wall a sense of foreboding overcomes him(her). (S)He isn't sure why, but (s)he feels this dusty structure may contain great dangers|Message that appears when the first colonist walks near.}}

This event is related to map generation and may not appear on every map. It may occur more than once per map. While listed as a danger, they are usually harmless until disturbed.

A colonist approached a walled out area of the map partially or completely under a mountain. It contains one or more of the following: ancient [[cryptosleep casket]]s, [[insectoids|bugs]] with hives, [[mechanoid]]s or treasure. Open at your own risk, by blowing a hole or deconstructing a section of the wall.

First, you'll need to deal with hostiles outside. Then, opening or attacking any casket will cause all the others to open instantly. The cryptosleep caskets usually contain humans, but may also contain [[megascarab]]s or be empty. The Spacers inside the caskets may or may not be dead. If alive, they may or may not be wounded, or armed and hostile. It's even possible for pawns incapable of violence to melee attack. If they are not hostile and can walk, they will try to escape. Any alive Spacers inside may be captured and recruited, usually with a low recruitment difficulty percentage.

Ancient structures may include other treasures like psychic lances and pulsers. [[Luciferium]] can be found in these buildings. Pod people sometimes carry [[plasteel]], [[component]]s, and [[gold]]. The caskets can be claimed and used or deconstructed by the colony.

==== Animal revenge ====
An animal that was harmed will go mad and become [[manhunter]]. When you select an animal to be hunted, the game will notify you if it has a chance for revenge and what the percentage is. Occasionally, all nearby pack members of that animal's species may start attacking their attacker.

==== Death ====
One of your pawns has died unintentionally. Slaughtering an animal or euthanizing a colonist or prisoner will not produce this event.

==== Drug addiction ====
A colonist has taken too much of a [[drugs|drug]] and is now [[Addictiveness|addicted]]. They will now need to regularly take that drug or suffer the withdrawal effects. See here for advice on [[Drugs#Fighting Addictions|fighting addictions]].

==== Heart attack ====
A character or tamed animal suffers a [[Injury#Heart Attack|heart attack]]. Characters will seek out a medical bed or their assigned bed for treatment. Animals will return to the nearest empty animal bed or sleeping spot. Doctors will then proceed to attempt to resuscitate the victim, using medicine if allowed and available.

During a heart attack, people or animals can fall unconscious or even die if not treated in time.

<gallery widths="400px" heights="400px" class="center" mode="nolines">
File:Heart attack.png|'''Heart attack notification'''
File: Heart attack health tab.png|'''Health tab'''
</gallery>

==== Mental Break ====
{{Main|Mental break}}
One of your colonists or prisoners has had it and has a [[Mood#Mental breakdowns|mental break]]. During this time, the afflicted colonist will be effectively unavailable, will not do colony work and can not be drafted. They will use forbidden doors and items. They will also attend to their needs such as sleep, recreation, and eating.

Depending on the nature of the mental break, there are several ways to handle the situation:

* Wall the person in – this is only possible if they wander to a suitable location.
* Try to arrest them. They will possibly resist and need to be beaten down, causing injury. This will also give them a fairly long-lasting mood debuff ("I was arrested!") after you release them from jail. Arresting temporary members will immediately cause their faction to become hostile.
* Wait out the situation - This takes a while for most minor breaks.

==== Overdose ====
{{Main|Overdose}}
One of your colonists or animals has [[overdose]]d. There is a risk of overdose when taking any [[drug|hard drug]], as well as when taking too many non-social drugs in general. This can cause permanent damage or even death.

==== Predator hunting ====
A wild, hungry predator has targeted one of your colonists or tamed animals for killing and eating. This will only be triggered if a hungry predator is on the map. This means if there are few wild animals near it, or if it's dangerously close to your base or pen, in some cases it can be a good idea to put out food to feed the predator so this event does not trigger. A hunting predator is different from normal enemies in a couple of ways. While regular enemies will tend to avoid targeting noncombatant [[children]], predators will target them the same as a regular pawn. Predators will also not stop attacking once a pawn is [[downed]], and will keep attacking until the pawn is dead and then eat the corpse. Predators don't change targets, even if a different pawn is closer, unless the targeted pawn becomes inaccessible, such as by entering the door to your base. As of version 1.4, colonists and turrets will not automatically identify predators hunting a pawn as hostile. Attacking the predator will trigger "animal revenge," which gives the predator the ability to change targets and all colonists and turrets will recognize it as a hostile. Version 1.5 patches this and they will be immediately identified as hostile by all colonists and turrets once they start hunting a pawn.

==== Prison break ====
[[File:Prison break.png|300px|thumb|right|Prison break]]
{{Template:Prison Break}}
{{Clear}}

==== Roof collapsed ====
This event only happens if something is crushed by the falling roof. Otherwise, it's only a notification.

All [[roof]]s must be supported by a constructed or rock wall within 6 spaces with contiguous roof sections in between itself and that wall. If either of these conditions changes such as via mining, an explosion or demolition, then the roof will collapse. Damage is dealt to the head and shoulders. Note that falling roofs underneath a mountain will instantly kill any pawn unfortunate enough to be crushed.

If demolishing a building, it's recommended to use the Remove Roof tool to remove the roof first before deconstructing the walls.

==== Too Deep: Infestation ====
Insectoid infestations can spawn when actively digging from a [[deep drill]]. Insectoids, but not hives, will pop out around the drill's area. These do not have the overhead mountain requirement like regular infestations. However, they are often smaller in number, and are unable to reproduce due to the lack of hive.
</div>

== Faction ==
These events are related with changes with other factions, either relations or leadership.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-IncidentalFaction" style="display:inline-block;background:rgba(128,128,128,0.5);color:white;padding:10px;border-radius:5px;outline:none;user-select:none">Show Faction Events</div>

<div id="mw-customcollapsible-IncidentalFaction" class="mw-collapsible">

==== Allied: (Faction) ====
Relations with another faction have risen above +75 and you are now allied with them. They may now [[#Friendlies|assist you]] against mutual enemies.

==== Enemy now neutral: (Faction) ====
This notification will appear once relations have been improved with a Hostile faction enough that they will no longer be hostile. Common ways to improve relations include releasing prisoners from their faction (which must leave the map safely to receive the bonus), having successful [[#Peace talks|peace talks]] or providing gifts.

==== Hostile faction ====
[[File:Bad will.png|300px|thumb|right|Badwill: Friendly traders face a mechanoid raid, loses members and turns against the player.]]
You've done something to anger another [[faction]] bad enough that they are now hostile to yours. This can happen if you arrest a faction member of theirs, rob one of their caravans or if they take too much friendly fire from your colonists, among other reasons. Rough factions that are neutral/allied will naturally decay goodwill, until they become hostile again.
{{Clear}}

==== Leader died ====
Occasionally, the leader of another faction will die, sometimes through no action on your part. The popup window will also announce his or her successor.

This alert uses the variable title of the leader in question. For example, if the "boss" of a pirate band dies you will see 'Boss died', if the "chief" died, then it will read 'Chief died', and so on.

This will also happen if the leader personally comes to raid your base and is killed in action. Killing an enemy faction leader will give a mood buff for a while to the colonist that accomplished this.

===== New Leader =====
Similar to the Leader Died event, except this one occurs only when you've succeeded in both capturing and [[#New recruit|recruiting]] another faction's leader. The leader then places first at the colonist bar, instead of last.

<div id="mw-customcollapsible-IncidentalInfo" class="mw-collapsible">

==== About: Electricity ====
Appears when you finish researching [[Research#Electricity|Electricity]]. Reminds you of the power of electric appliances, and the [[power]] infrastructure required to maintain them.

==== About: Getting advanced components ====
Appears when you finish researching [[Research#Fabrication|Fabrication]]. Reminds you that you need [[advanced component]]s to build a [[fabrication bench]], and the potential means of obtaining them.

==== About: Launching the ship ====
Appears when you finish researching [[Research#Starflight basics|Starflight Basics]]. This is a simple reminder about the dangers of powering up the [[ship reactor]] once built. Once turned on, the number of raids will greatly increase for the next 15 days.

==== Persona Core Offer ====
A non-hostile faction will notify you that they know where an [[Persona core]] is located: a critical component for building a ship. They will want 1500 silver for this information. However, you can only make this request at the [[comms console]] with factions which have at least +40 [[goodwill]].

You can always request for a persona core location with 100% success, even if this event doesn't trigger, so long as you have the requisite goodwill. It only serves to remind the player that it is possible.

==== Summer ====
This event occurs at the beginning of the summer [[quadrum]], if you are lacking suitable [[apparel]] for winter's [[temperature]]s. It merely informs you that you are ill-prepared for the winter. Grow some more food and get some warm clothing. Plan ahead for any additions to your colony during these seasons, including recruits and born animals.

==== Unwaveringly loyal ====
Appears when you first capture an unwaveringly loyal [[prisoner]]. They are unable to be recruited as a colonist or be [[ideoligion|converted]]{{IdeologyIcon}}, but can be released, [[slave|enslaved]]{{IdeologyIcon}}, or used for a variety of [[human resources]].

==== About: Anima tree linking ====
{{Royalty|section=1}}
Appears when an [[anima tree]] has 20 anima grass around it. Reminds you that a colonist with ''Natural'' meditation can begin the linking ritual, gaining a level of [[psycast]]ing in the process.

==== Baby Prep ====
{{Biotech|section=1}}
Appears when a human's [[reproduction|pregnancy]] is at its third trimester. Labor will happen without warning within the next 6 days, so prepare a clean hospital with a good doctor.

== Social ==
These events cover relationships changes between 2 pawns. Currently, all events relate to marital status.

[[Creepjoiner]]s {{AnomalyIcon}} are not able to romance ordinary pawns, but they can romance another creepjoiner, or form relationships to pawns with the [[Psychic bonding]] gene,{{BiotechIcon}} such as [[Highmates]].{{BiotechIcon}} {{Check Tag|verify|Confirmed for leathery man.

<div id="mw-customcollapsible-IncidentalSocial" class="mw-collapsible">

==== New lovers ====
You receive the announcement that two characters have become lovers, and "now want to sleep together". These are usually colonists, but a pair of [[prisoner]]s can also become lovers. They will receive [[mood]] boosts or debuff proportional to their [[opinion]] of their partner, with +/- 1 mood for every 10 opinion above/below zero.

Starting the moment their new relationship is announced, couples will ''immediately'' have a -4 mood debuff for "''sleeping alone''", even if they won't get their first chance to sleep together for hours. This can be remedied by assigning both pawns to a two person bed, such as the [[double sleeping spot]], [[double bedroll]], [[double bed]] or [[royal bed]]. A [[double bedroll]] is preferred when in a [[caravan]]. Couples that sleep in the same bed can also perform [[Lovin]]' for a mood boost to both partners.
{{Clear}}

==== Breakup ====
A couple splits, complete with the Mood and Social penalties for both colonists. The one initiating the break-up is better off than the other in the couple.

==== Rejected proposal ====
After two characters [[#New lovers|fall in love]], one of them proposed marriage but is turned down, which may result in the couple breaking up. The proposing one suffers a mood penalty of -18 for 25 days. They may accept another offer in the future. Note that a later, accepted proposal will not remove the mood effects of the previous, rejected ones.

==== Marriage is on! ====
A couple that has been together for a while will announce their engagement. The wedding will take place some time in the future, at a [[marriage spot]], or any gathering spot ([[table]] or [[campfire]]) in lieu of one. Both fiancees and married pawns, like lovers, will want to sleep in the same bed. They receive mood boosts or debuffs depending on the relationship with their couple. They can also receive a mood boost from lovin'.

When the day of the wedding arrives, it will take place regardless of the entire colony's attendance. Pawns will sometimes take the family name of their partner upon marriage. After the ceremony takes place, a reception will follow with everyone drinking, smoking and eating if hungry. Getting married, as well as taking part in the marriage ceremony, gives a substantial, fairly long-lasting {{+|40}} [[Mood#Gatherings|mood buff]] to the newlyweds ("Got married to <name>"), and {{+|20}} to attendees ("Attended wedding").

Colonists who do not reach the meeting point on time, such as those sleeping, fighting fires or lying incapacitated in bed, will not gain the mood buff from the event. A quick "draft" and "undraft" for everybody ''but'' the couple should be enough to coerce all capable colonists to attend. Colonists on caravans will not attend.

If the couple happens to be busy at the exact moment the wedding is to take place, for example, because they are drafted or loading a caravan, those who are not members of the trade group will remain waiting at attendance and perform no task at all, except for eating until the couple comes back.

A married couple has divorced; as a normal break up, but with worse mood penalties.

Daylong698: /* Drawbacks */ Adds screenshot about marriage between creepjoiners

{{Anomaly}}
{{Rewrite|reason=table ala [[Psycasts]] with ids flr crosslinking, ability icons (where relevant) and mechanical details}}
{{Stub|reason=Missing a ton of detail on the various effects. Also i don't think the term is used in game - might be an idea to explain that similar to [[Pawn]]}}
Creepjoiners are an exclusive event for the [[Anomaly]] DLC. They are pawns who will randomly arrive at your colony offering to join, often providing great benefits however potentially bringing a hidden downside. You can encounter creepjoiners even if you have not yet activated the [[monolith]].

== Summary ==

A random [[human]] pawn appears that wants to join your colony. The pawn waits on the edge of your map for someone to be sent to talk to them. They usually have some great benefit, but come with large risks too.

If rejected, they can either depart peacefully or become hostile.

Joiners have a specific list of upsides and possible downsides. Not all combinations below are possible. For some options there is a minimum raid point requirement (e.g. metalhorror or fleshbeast emergence), and some types will be limited in their downsides and benefits (e.g., blind healer will always have unnatural healing, or someone with joybringer cannot have disturbing).

Creepjoiners can be studied for if taken prisoner, as can some of their side effects such as [[entities]]. Creepjoiners are studied for Advanced Anomaly Research and give 2 Advanced Research with a cooldown of 2 days. The Creep joiner must be walking to be possible to be studied.

The [[monolith]] does not need to be active for creepjoiners to appear.

=== Types ===

Main creepjoiner types (each has its unique backstory and equipment):

* Leathery stranger
* Dark scholar
* Deal maker — Has the [[Beautiful]] trait in addition to their other benefit
* Drifter
* Blind healer — Usually missing both eyes, which can be replaced with surgery
* Timeless one — Usually a very young adult
* Cult escapee - Usually has many surgical scars and/or removed body parts
* Lone genius - Always has the [[Too smart]] and [[Abrasive]] traits.

=== Benefits ===

They can have one of the following benefits:

* Perfect human — Has the [[perfect memory]] and [[industrious]] trait and 14 to 18 in all skills. The perfect memory trait prevents their skills from degrading.
* Occultist — Has a bonus to research
* Shambler overlord — Has an ability to create friendly [[shambler]]s through a release [[Research#Deadlife_dust|deadlife dust]] cloud power.
* Fleshcrafter — Has a Shape Flesh ability with a 1 hour cooldown, which converts a corpse into a [[fleshbeast]] that is hostile to all humans. The Fleshbeast created depends on the size of the corpse.
* Alchemist — Has a Transmute Steel ability with a 20 hour cooldown, which randomly converts one stack of [[steel]] or a steel slag chunk into [[plasteel]], [[uranium]], [[gold]], [[bioferrite]], or [[twisted meat]]; or a [[stuff]]able item or building made from steel into [[plasteel]], [[uranium]], [[gold]], or [[bioferrite]].
* Joybringer — Has the [[Joyous]] trait, which provides a passive {{good|+3}} '''joyous presence''' mood buff to all pawns in your colony anywhere within the same map
* Death refusal — Has the ability to self-resurrect themselves up to 4 times, healing lost limbs and organs each time. Scarring and resurrection sickness are possible.
* Body master — Has the [[body mastery]] trait, which completely removes the pawn's need for [[food]], [[sleep]], and [[comfort]].
* Psychic butcher — Has an ability that can instantly kill pawns, turning them into twisted flesh.

=== Drawbacks ===

Creepjoiners can have one downside applied to them upon spawning as well, which occurs after a 3-30 day delay while living with your colony, These downsides include:

* Nothing
* Desertion — The colonist will suddenly depart. {{Check Tag|Enslaved?|Do enslaved creepjoiners retain this drawback?}}
'' '''<PAWN NAME> departure:''' <PAWN NAME> thanks you for your hospitality, but says that it is time for <PAWN'S PRONOUN> to move on. ''
* Traitor — The colonist will suddenly become hostile, accompanied by a message about their evil expression.
* Metalhorror — The colonist is infected with a [[metalhorror]] (requires level 2 Monolith).
* Crumbling mind — The colonist will experience a severe health effect that renders them incapable of most tasks within a few days. The crumbling can be healed with a [[healer mech serum]] or by having another joiner use Unnatural Healing.
** Can be diagnosed early with a surgical inspection.
* [[Void fascination]] — The colonist will have a [[Mental break#Entity liberator|Entity Liberator]] mental break regularly and attempt to free all of your contained [[entities]]. this is immediately apparent due to being a trait. {{Check Tag|No entities?|what happens if there are no entities to free? is this replaced by another action or does the mental break still occur and just end up being treated like a daze?}}
* Psychic agony — The colonist emits an [[Hediffs/Anomaly/Global/Misc/Agony_pulse|Agony pulse]], on average once every 30 days, inflicting a large amount of psychic [[pain]] on nearby pawns. The pain is often enough to down your other colonists temporarily, and then lingers for multiple days at lower levels. [[Psychic sensitivity]] applies to this effect.
** If a surgical inspection is made on a Human who does this, this will be the results: "''(human) detected a faint but painful psychic presence emanating from (human) but failed to understand what was causing it''"
** This Event is very rare, and seems to only trigger when humans are grouped up, though it could be random.{{Check Tag|Detail needed|What triggers it an when}} When it happens, all nearby{{Check Tag|Radius?}} humans will gain 100% pain for a few seconds,{{Check Tag|Exact duration?}} reduced to 25% soon after, which last between 2-5 days. This can be sufficient to kill pawns.
* [[Organ decay]] — The colonist will suddenly develop severe organ decay, requiring you to replace their [[heart]], [[liver]], [[kidney]]s, and/or [[lung]]s.
* [[Disturbing]] — The colonist upsets other colonists, giving them a {{bad|-2}} '''[name] rambling''' moodlet when interacting with them, which can stack up to {{--|12}} mood. this is immediately apparent due to being a trait.

Separate from the downsides listed above, Creep joiners will become hostile if they receive friendly fire damage. This aggressive state on friendly fire damage can only occur once. If a Creep Joiner receives friendly fire, becomes captured, and then joins the colony, they will not respond to friendly fire with aggression. When recruiting creep joiners, it's recommended to sedate them, punch them once to trigger their initial friendly fire hostility, and proceed to capture and recruit them like any other hostile pawn.

If they become aggressive, they can react in various ways:

* Basic assault
* Fleshbeast emergence — A [[fleshbeast]] emerges from the joiner, killing them in the process.
* Sightstealer attack — The joiner will scream and summon [[sightstealer]]s {{Check Tag|Blind healer?|Is the probability of this drawback higher with a Blind healer? I've just had a blind healer with this one}}:
'' '''<PAWN NAME>'s howl:''' <PAWN NAME> has let out a twisted half-human scream. In the distance, you can hear other screams answering the call. They are coming... ''

Also they are not able to romance ordinary pawns, but they can romance another creepjoiner, or form relationships to pawns with the [[Psychic bonding]] gene,{{BiotechIcon}} such as [[Highmates]].{{BiotechIcon}} {{Check Tag|verify|Confirmed for leathery man. Is this relevant for other types of creepjoiners? Can be overridden with psychic bond}}.

</gallery>

Creepjoiners initially start as Unwaveringly Loyal. If they are allowed to join your colony, the Unwaveringly Loyal aspect is removed permanently. They have 0 resistance and roughly around 80 will when imprisoned this is reset by their friendly fire hostility which can even occur during prison breaks.

== Pawn Kinds ==

{{:Creepjoiner/Pawns}}

== Analysis ==

Creepjoiners often have many powerful, colony-changing abilities. Evaluate the possible tradeoffs above, and be prepared to deal with sudden turncoat behavior. Inspect the pawn's entire bio and health tab carefully before recruiting them. Some creepjoiners such as the perfect human can be incredible and frankly game-changing if acquired, however one must decide whether the potential risks they may bring are worth it. Additionally, you may also want to consider the potential downsides of not recruiting the creepjoiner (such as a potential aggressive response).

Performing a [[Doctoring#Surgical_inspection|Surgical inspection]] operation right after recruiting a creepjoiner can sometimes reveal their downside early (for example, Organ decay, Psychic agony, Crumbling mind, Metalhorror). However, not all downsides can be revealed with a surgical inspection (for example, Desertion), so even if a medical inspection has no results then it is still necessary to stay vigilant.

Creepjoiners with Crumbling mind or Organ decay can be paused until you're able to deal with the issue by placing the colonist inside a [[cryptosleep casket]]. You will want to be prepared to potentially lose the creepjoiner for a very long time however (especially if they suffer from crumbling mind, which may require something as rare as a healer mech serum to cure), so be prepared if they carry out essential jobs such as cooking or farming.

If a creepjoiner's downsides cannot immediately be determined then it may be useful to keep them isolated from other colonists (such as utilising areas to restrict their movement or using a schedule that isolates them) until the downside either is discovered or reveals itself. This can be beneficial if the downside turns out to be one that can potentially affect other colonists, such as a Metalhorror.

Due to the risk of a recruited creepjoiner suddenly deserting the colony after a few days, you may want to consider whether or not it is worth giving them expensive or rare items (such as high-quality armor, weapons or bionic parts). While this equipment can be recovered if the deserting creepjoiner is arrested, there is always the risk that your colonists will not be able to catch up to them and you will consequently lose the equipment. To catch the deserter creepjoiner, it is advised to attack it to slow it down and then capture it. Successfully arresting the deserter and then recruiting them again will make them join the colony permanently, without wanting to desert again {{Check Tag|Verify|This seems to work, but needs more proof}}.

Events/Incidental

2025-01-19T18:18:23Z

Daylong698: /* Social */ Added creepjoiner-related romance info from the Creepjoiner page

{{main|Events}}
Incidental Events are those not triggered by the [[storyteller]]. Instead, these are results of other game mechanics.

For purposes of the wiki, these are divided in good, bad, faction, informational, and social events.

== Good ==
Good Incidental events are generally positive or neutral in nature.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-IncidentalGood" style="display:inline-block;background:rgba(128,128,128,0.5);color:white;padding:10px;border-radius:5px;outline:none;user-select:none">Show Good Incidental Events</div>

<div id="mw-customcollapsible-IncidentalGood" class="mw-collapsible">

==== Friendlies ====
This event can only occur if you are allied with at least one other faction and have enemies on screen. Allied factions may send around fighters to assist you when mutual enemies appear, such as pirates, manhunters or insectoids. They won't assist against factions that they aren't hostile to. Keep in mind that friendly fire will damage your relations with the aiding faction. On the other hand, rescuing their downed people will improve relations.

There are two versions of the friendlies event. The first is sent by an allied faction at 0 cost. These friendlies are [[raider]]s who are allied with you. They can arrive via any method and use the usual [[raid points]] system to determine their size.

The second can be called in instantly via [[comms console]], at the cost of -25 [[goodwill]]. The faction must be allied with you, and have an Industrial tech level or higher. These allies will always arrive through [[drop pod]], and can use any arrival method with drop pods. Unlike the random event, these friendlies are set with a strength between 150 - 400 [[raid points]], instead of using the raid points of your colony.

<gallery widths="400px" heights="400px" class="center" mode="nolines">

</gallery>

==== Masterwork ====
{{For|more details|Quality#How quality is determined}}
One of your colonists has produced an object of masterwork [[quality]].

==== Legendary work ====
{{For|more details|Quality#Legendary items}}
One of your colonists has produced an object of legendary [[quality]].

==== Man in Black ====
When your colonists are no longer able to defend themselves, a stranger may join the colony to help. As their name indicates, men in black come in a full set of black clothing. They also come wearing a [[flak vest]] and always carry a [[revolver]]. Their skills and traits are fully randomized, but they will always be capable of Violence and Caring, and their favorite color{{IdeologyIcon}} will always be black.

This event is triggered only when all of your colonists are downed at your base, but almost always happens when this is the case. This event can only happen if your colony has ever had at least 3 colonists, which prevents it from appearing in solo colonist starts. This event also has a cooldown of roughly 1 year.

The man in black will not appear on the temporary maps generated for world quests. However, if all your surviving pawns are downed elsewhere, it is possible for the man in black to appear at your base. (Testing is needed to see how these events are affected by allowing multiple colonies in the scenario editor.)

==== New recruit ====
You'll get this notification whenever a Warden has succeeded in recruiting a prisoner. It also appears if a [[#Transport pod crash|transport pod crash]] victim chooses to join your faction.

==== Meteorite ====
A large meteorite has struck ground in the area. It has left behind a lump of [[material]]. During daylight, a large shadow will project on the ground which shrinks as it closes in.

The meteorite will severely damage or kill anything that is below it. Any colonists beneath the meteorite has a small while to escape before they are crushed by it. The map tile will read: Meteorite (incoming).

<gallery widths="250px" heights="250px" class="center" mode="nolines">

File:Meteorite during impact.png|'''Crashing meteorite, with explosion'''
File:Meteorite.png|'''Landed meteorite'''
</gallery>

==== Outpost destroyed ====
[[File:Faction destroyed.png|400px|thumb|right|R.I.P. some pirate faction, nobody will remember you.]]

This is the notification that triggers when you successfully defeat all humanlike hostiles in an enemy base after invading them (not counting turrets, which need to be neutralized separately). After this you have a while to capture any prisoners (there is usually at least one building suitable to turn into a cell), treat the wounded, pack up and leave before enemy reinforcements arrive in the form of a raid.

===== Faction defeated =====
Should you destroy all bases of a faction, the notification will say that since you just destroyed the last faction base, the faction no longer exists.

You can still view the defeated faction in the menu, and it will show 'Defeated' below it. They won't send any raids, nor will they send caravans. It should be noted that this does not actually decrease the total frequency of raids you will get, as whether a raid happens or not is determined separately and before a faction is chosen. It just means that the raids will not be from this faction and will be from other factions, and with fewer human factions to choose from the game will start sending more mechanoid raids, which can inadvertently make the game harder if you find mechanoids more difficult.

Destroying and/or befriending all factions will make mechanoids the only remaining threat for all future raids.
{{Clear}}

==== Ransom (Time remaining) ====
This event can only occur if a colonist of yours was captured by another faction.

Another faction captured one of your downed colonists somehow and will release that colonist to you... for a price. Common methods for capturing your colonists include grabbing downed colonists while retreating from a raid or downing an entire caravan.

The offer will be good for 24 game hours. If paid, the colonist will immediately appear on your map border or be sent via drop pod.

==== Rare thrumbos ====
Two to six [[thrumbo]]s will spawn at the edge of the map, staying around for a while to eat anything they can, including your crops, but not including [[anima tree]]s{{RoyaltyIcon}}. The player can attempt to hunt or tame them, both of which are very difficult. If no action is taken, they will leave on their own after a few days. It will not reoccur for 13 days.

==== Reactor ready ====
You have completed the 15 day warm up period for starting a [[ship reactor]]. If the rest of the necessary ship parts have been built, it may now be launched. Raids and sieges will drop considerably after this period is over.

==== Ship chunks ====
This event doesn't have an envelope, but rather appears in the notification bar up top, assuming these chunks don't strike your colony or pawns. One or more [[ship chunk]]s fall onto the map. They can be deconstructed for 5-6 [[component]]s and 20 [[steel]]. Rarely they can punch through roofs, damaging structures near it. Extremely rarely, they can land right on top of a colonist, killing them.

In Beta 18 the ship chunk creates an explosion upon landing. The falling chunks cast shadows on the ground, giving a little time for colonists to move out of the way.

==== Trauma savant ====
This event only has a 12% chance to trigger upon one of your colonists receiving a brain injury.

A colonist has suffered a brain injury and has gained great abilities from it at the cost of others, gaining 50% extra [[manipulation]] while losing the ability to [[talking|speak]], [[hearing|hear]], and have any [[social]] relationships. It also restores the brain to full functioning, despite the injury.

==== Quest completed ====
You've done what was [[quest|requested]] by other factions and will receive the reward at your nearest(?) base via pods very close to your buildings, along with an improvement in relations. While they attempt not to, the pods may also crash through your roof, so be prepared to repair them.

==== Anima tree sprout ====
{{Royalty|section=1}}
If an [[anima tree]] was killed by any means, this event can occur within a few days from the last death of the tree, appearing at random places that are unaffected by its radius.
</div>

== Bad ==
Bad Incidental events are either negative or cautionary in nature.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-IncidentalBad" style="display:inline-block;background:rgba(128,128,128,0.5);color:white;padding:10px;border-radius:5px;outline:none;user-select:none">Show Bad Incidental Events</div>

<div id="mw-customcollapsible-IncidentalBad" class="mw-collapsible">

==== Ancient danger ====
{{main|Ancient shrine}}
{{quote|As (Colonist name) draws near the ancient wall a sense of foreboding overcomes him(her). (S)He isn't sure why, but (s)he feels this dusty structure may contain great dangers|Message that appears when the first colonist walks near.}}

This event is related to map generation and may not appear on every map. It may occur more than once per map. While listed as a danger, they are usually harmless until disturbed.

A colonist approached a walled out area of the map partially or completely under a mountain. It contains one or more of the following: ancient [[cryptosleep casket]]s, [[insectoids|bugs]] with hives, [[mechanoid]]s or treasure. Open at your own risk, by blowing a hole or deconstructing a section of the wall.

First, you'll need to deal with hostiles outside. Then, opening or attacking any casket will cause all the others to open instantly. The cryptosleep caskets usually contain humans, but may also contain [[megascarab]]s or be empty. The Spacers inside the caskets may or may not be dead. If alive, they may or may not be wounded, or armed and hostile. It's even possible for pawns incapable of violence to melee attack. If they are not hostile and can walk, they will try to escape. Any alive Spacers inside may be captured and recruited, usually with a low recruitment difficulty percentage.

Ancient structures may include other treasures like psychic lances and pulsers. [[Luciferium]] can be found in these buildings. Pod people sometimes carry [[plasteel]], [[component]]s, and [[gold]]. The caskets can be claimed and used or deconstructed by the colony.

==== Animal revenge ====
An animal that was harmed will go mad and become [[manhunter]]. When you select an animal to be hunted, the game will notify you if it has a chance for revenge and what the percentage is. Occasionally, all nearby pack members of that animal's species may start attacking their attacker.

==== Death ====
One of your pawns has died unintentionally. Slaughtering an animal or euthanizing a colonist or prisoner will not produce this event.

==== Drug addiction ====
A colonist has taken too much of a [[drugs|drug]] and is now [[Addictiveness|addicted]]. They will now need to regularly take that drug or suffer the withdrawal effects. See here for advice on [[Drugs#Fighting Addictions|fighting addictions]].

==== Heart attack ====
A character or tamed animal suffers a [[Injury#Heart Attack|heart attack]]. Characters will seek out a medical bed or their assigned bed for treatment. Animals will return to the nearest empty animal bed or sleeping spot. Doctors will then proceed to attempt to resuscitate the victim, using medicine if allowed and available.

During a heart attack, people or animals can fall unconscious or even die if not treated in time.

==== Mental Break ====
{{Main|Mental break}}
One of your colonists or prisoners has had it and has a [[Mood#Mental breakdowns|mental break]]. During this time, the afflicted colonist will be effectively unavailable, will not do colony work and can not be drafted. They will use forbidden doors and items. They will also attend to their needs such as sleep, recreation, and eating.

Depending on the nature of the mental break, there are several ways to handle the situation:

* Wall the person in – this is only possible if they wander to a suitable location.
* Try to arrest them. They will possibly resist and need to be beaten down, causing injury. This will also give them a fairly long-lasting mood debuff ("I was arrested!") after you release them from jail. Arresting temporary members will immediately cause their faction to become hostile.
* Wait out the situation - This takes a while for most minor breaks.

==== Overdose ====
{{Main|Overdose}}
One of your colonists or animals has [[overdose]]d. There is a risk of overdose when taking any [[drug|hard drug]], as well as when taking too many non-social drugs in general. This can cause permanent damage or even death.

==== Predator hunting ====
A wild, hungry predator has targeted one of your colonists or tamed animals for killing and eating. This will only be triggered if a hungry predator is on the map. This means if there are few wild animals near it, or if it's dangerously close to your base or pen, in some cases it can be a good idea to put out food to feed the predator so this event does not trigger. A hunting predator is different from normal enemies in a couple of ways. While regular enemies will tend to avoid targeting noncombatant [[children]], predators will target them the same as a regular pawn. Predators will also not stop attacking once a pawn is [[downed]], and will keep attacking until the pawn is dead and then eat the corpse. Predators don't change targets, even if a different pawn is closer, unless the targeted pawn becomes inaccessible, such as by entering the door to your base. As of version 1.4, colonists and turrets will not automatically identify predators hunting a pawn as hostile. Attacking the predator will trigger "animal revenge," which gives the predator the ability to change targets and all colonists and turrets will recognize it as a hostile. Version 1.5 patches this and they will be immediately identified as hostile by all colonists and turrets once they start hunting a pawn.

==== Prison break ====
[[File:Prison break.png|300px|thumb|right|Prison break]]
{{Template:Prison Break}}
{{Clear}}

==== Roof collapsed ====
This event only happens if something is crushed by the falling roof. Otherwise, it's only a notification.

All [[roof]]s must be supported by a constructed or rock wall within 6 spaces with contiguous roof sections in between itself and that wall. If either of these conditions changes such as via mining, an explosion or demolition, then the roof will collapse. Damage is dealt to the head and shoulders. Note that falling roofs underneath a mountain will instantly kill any pawn unfortunate enough to be crushed.

If demolishing a building, it's recommended to use the Remove Roof tool to remove the roof first before deconstructing the walls.

==== Too Deep: Infestation ====
Insectoid infestations can spawn when actively digging from a [[deep drill]]. Insectoids, but not hives, will pop out around the drill's area. These do not have the overhead mountain requirement like regular infestations. However, they are often smaller in number, and are unable to reproduce due to the lack of hive.
</div>

== Faction ==
These events are related with changes with other factions, either relations or leadership.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-IncidentalFaction" style="display:inline-block;background:rgba(128,128,128,0.5);color:white;padding:10px;border-radius:5px;outline:none;user-select:none">Show Faction Events</div>

<div id="mw-customcollapsible-IncidentalFaction" class="mw-collapsible">

==== Allied: (Faction) ====
Relations with another faction have risen above +75 and you are now allied with them. They may now [[#Friendlies|assist you]] against mutual enemies.

==== Enemy now neutral: (Faction) ====
This notification will appear once relations have been improved with a Hostile faction enough that they will no longer be hostile. Common ways to improve relations include releasing prisoners from their faction (which must leave the map safely to receive the bonus), having successful [[#Peace talks|peace talks]] or providing gifts.

==== Hostile faction ====
[[File:Bad will.png|300px|thumb|right|Badwill: Friendly traders face a mechanoid raid, loses members and turns against the player.]]
You've done something to anger another [[faction]] bad enough that they are now hostile to yours. This can happen if you arrest a faction member of theirs, rob one of their caravans or if they take too much friendly fire from your colonists, among other reasons. Rough factions that are neutral/allied will naturally decay goodwill, until they become hostile again.
{{Clear}}

==== Leader died ====
Occasionally, the leader of another faction will die, sometimes through no action on your part. The popup window will also announce his or her successor.

This alert uses the variable title of the leader in question. For example, if the "boss" of a pirate band dies you will see 'Boss died', if the "chief" died, then it will read 'Chief died', and so on.

This will also happen if the leader personally comes to raid your base and is killed in action. Killing an enemy faction leader will give a mood buff for a while to the colonist that accomplished this.

===== New Leader =====
Similar to the Leader Died event, except this one occurs only when you've succeeded in both capturing and [[#New recruit|recruiting]] another faction's leader. The leader then places first at the colonist bar, instead of last.

== Informational Events ==
These events serve purely to give information about the game, and have no physical gameplay implications.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-IncidentalInfo" style="display:inline-block;background:rgba(128,128,128,0.5);color:white;padding:10px;border-radius:5px;outline:none;user-select:none">Show Informational Events</div>

<div id="mw-customcollapsible-IncidentalInfo" class="mw-collapsible">

==== About: Electricity ====
Appears when you finish researching [[Research#Electricity|Electricity]]. Reminds you of the power of electric appliances, and the [[power]] infrastructure required to maintain them.

==== About: Getting advanced components ====
Appears when you finish researching [[Research#Fabrication|Fabrication]]. Reminds you that you need [[advanced component]]s to build a [[fabrication bench]], and the potential means of obtaining them.

==== About: Launching the ship ====
Appears when you finish researching [[Research#Starflight basics|Starflight Basics]]. This is a simple reminder about the dangers of powering up the [[ship reactor]] once built. Once turned on, the number of raids will greatly increase for the next 15 days.

==== Persona Core Offer ====
A non-hostile faction will notify you that they know where an [[Persona core]] is located: a critical component for building a ship. They will want 1500 silver for this information. However, you can only make this request at the [[comms console]] with factions which have at least +40 [[goodwill]].

You can always request for a persona core location with 100% success, even if this event doesn't trigger, so long as you have the requisite goodwill. It only serves to remind the player that it is possible.

==== Summer ====
This event occurs at the beginning of the summer [[quadrum]], if you are lacking suitable [[apparel]] for winter's [[temperature]]s. It merely informs you that you are ill-prepared for the winter. Grow some more food and get some warm clothing. Plan ahead for any additions to your colony during these seasons, including recruits and born animals.

==== Unwaveringly loyal ====
Appears when you first capture an unwaveringly loyal [[prisoner]]. They are unable to be recruited as a colonist or be [[ideoligion|converted]]{{IdeologyIcon}}, but can be released, [[slave|enslaved]]{{IdeologyIcon}}, or used for a variety of [[human resources]].

==== About: Anima tree linking ====
{{Royalty|section=1}}
Appears when an [[anima tree]] has 20 anima grass around it. Reminds you that a colonist with ''Natural'' meditation can begin the linking ritual, gaining a level of [[psycast]]ing in the process.

==== Baby Prep ====
{{Biotech|section=1}}
Appears when a human's [[reproduction|pregnancy]] is at its third trimester. Labor will happen without warning within the next 6 days, so prepare a clean hospital with a good doctor.
</div>

== Social ==
These events cover relationships changes between 2 pawns. Currently, all events relate to marital status.

[[Creepjoiner]]s {{AnomalyIcon}} are not able to romance ordinary pawns, but they can romance another creepjoiner, or form relationships to pawns with the [[Psychic bonding]] gene,{{BiotechIcon}} such as [[Highmates]].{{BiotechIcon}} {{Check Tag|verify|Confirmed for leathery man. Is this relevant for other types of creepjoiners? Can be overridden with psychic bond}}.

<div class="mw-customtoggle-IncidentalSocial" style="display:inline-block;background:rgba(128,128,128,0.5);color:white;padding:10px;border-radius:5px;outline:none;user-select:none">Show Social Events</div>

<div id="mw-customcollapsible-IncidentalSocial" class="mw-collapsible">

==== New lovers ====
You receive the announcement that two characters have become lovers, and "now want to sleep together". These are usually colonists, but a pair of [[prisoner]]s can also become lovers. They will receive [[mood]] boosts or debuff proportional to their [[opinion]] of their partner, with +/- 1 mood for every 10 opinion above/below zero.

Starting the moment their new relationship is announced, couples will ''immediately'' have a -4 mood debuff for "''sleeping alone''", even if they won't get their first chance to sleep together for hours. This can be remedied by assigning both pawns to a two person bed, such as the [[double sleeping spot]], [[double bedroll]], [[double bed]] or [[royal bed]]. A [[double bedroll]] is preferred when in a [[caravan]]. Couples that sleep in the same bed can also perform [[Lovin]]' for a mood boost to both partners.
{{Clear}}

==== Breakup ====
A couple splits, complete with the Mood and Social penalties for both colonists. The one initiating the break-up is better off than the other in the couple.

==== Rejected proposal ====
After two characters [[#New lovers|fall in love]], one of them proposed marriage but is turned down, which may result in the couple breaking up. The proposing one suffers a mood penalty of -18 for 25 days. They may accept another offer in the future. Note that a later, accepted proposal will not remove the mood effects of the previous, rejected ones.

==== Marriage is on! ====
A couple that has been together for a while will announce their engagement. The wedding will take place some time in the future, at a [[marriage spot]], or any gathering spot ([[table]] or [[campfire]]) in lieu of one. Both fiancees and married pawns, like lovers, will want to sleep in the same bed. They receive mood boosts or debuffs depending on the relationship with their couple. They can also receive a mood boost from lovin'.

When the day of the wedding arrives, it will take place regardless of the entire colony's attendance. Pawns will sometimes take the family name of their partner upon marriage. After the ceremony takes place, a reception will follow with everyone drinking, smoking and eating if hungry. Getting married, as well as taking part in the marriage ceremony, gives a substantial, fairly long-lasting {{+|40}} mood buff to the newly weds, and {{+|20}} to attendees.

Colonists who do not reach the meeting point on time, such as those sleeping, fighting fires or lying incapacitated in bed, will not gain the mood buff from the event. A quick "draft" and "undraft" for everybody ''but'' the couple should be enough to coerce all capable colonists to attend. Colonists on caravans will not attend.

If the couple happens to be busy at the exact moment the wedding is to take place, for example, because they are drafted or loading a caravan, those who are not members of the trade group will remain waiting at attendance and perform no task at all, except for eating until the couple comes back.

==== Affair ====
Somebody who is already married starts an affair with a single person. It is possible for your colonists to cheat on their lovers who aren't members of your faction.

==== Divorce ====
A married couple has divorced; as a normal break up, but with worse mood penalties.

{{main|Events}}
Incidental Events are those not triggered by the [[storyteller]]. Instead, these are results of other game mechanics.

For purposes of the wiki, these are divided in good, bad, faction, informational, and social events.

== Good ==
Good Incidental events are generally positive or neutral in nature.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-IncidentalGood" style="display:inline-block;background:rgba(128,128,128,0.5);color:white;padding:10px;border-radius:5px;outline:none;user-select:none">Show Good Incidental Events</div>

<div id="mw-customcollapsible-IncidentalGood" class="mw-collapsible">

==== Friendlies ====
This event can only occur if you are allied with at least one other faction and have enemies on screen. Allied factions may send around fighters to assist you when mutual enemies appear, such as pirates, manhunters or insectoids. They won't assist against factions that they aren't hostile to. Keep in mind that friendly fire will damage your relations with the aiding faction. On the other hand, rescuing their downed people will improve relations.

There are two versions of the friendlies event. The first is sent by an allied faction at 0 cost. These friendlies are [[raider]]s who are allied with you. They can arrive via any method and use the usual [[raid points]] system to determine their size.

The second can be called in instantly via [[comms console]], at the cost of -25 [[goodwill]]. The faction must be allied with you, and have an Industrial tech level or higher. These allies will always arrive through [[drop pod]], and can use any arrival method with drop pods. Unlike the random event, these friendlies are set with a strength between 150 - 400 [[raid points]], instead of using the raid points of your colony.

==== Masterwork ====
{{For|more details|Quality#How quality is determined}}
One of your colonists has produced an object of masterwork [[quality]].

==== Legendary work ====
{{For|more details|Quality#Legendary items}}
One of your colonists has produced an object of legendary [[quality]].

==== Man in Black ====
When your colonists are no longer able to defend themselves, a stranger may join the colony to help. As their name indicates, men in black come in a full set of black clothing. They also come wearing a [[flak vest]] and always carry a [[revolver]]. Their skills and traits are fully randomized, but they will always be capable of Violence and Caring, and their favorite color{{IdeologyIcon}} will always be black.

This event is triggered only when all of your colonists are downed at your base, but almost always happens when this is the case. This event can only happen if your colony has ever had at least 3 colonists, which prevents it from appearing in solo colonist starts. This event also has a cooldown of roughly 1 year.

The man in black will not appear on the temporary maps generated for world quests. However, if all your surviving pawns are downed elsewhere, it is possible for the man in black to appear at your base. (Testing is needed to see how these events are affected by allowing multiple colonies in the scenario editor.)

==== New recruit ====
You'll get this notification whenever a Warden has succeeded in recruiting a prisoner. It also appears if a [[#Transport pod crash|transport pod crash]] victim chooses to join your faction.

==== Meteorite ====
A large meteorite has struck ground in the area. It has left behind a lump of [[material]]. During daylight, a large shadow will project on the ground which shrinks as it closes in.

The meteorite will severely damage or kill anything that is below it. Any colonists beneath the meteorite has a small while to escape before they are crushed by it. The map tile will read: Meteorite (incoming).

</gallery>

==== Outpost destroyed ====
[[File:Faction destroyed.png|400px|thumb|right|R.I.P. some pirate faction, nobody will remember you.]]

This is the notification that triggers when you successfully defeat all humanlike hostiles in an enemy base after invading them (not counting turrets, which need to be neutralized separately). After this you have a while to capture any prisoners (there is usually at least one building suitable to turn into a cell), treat the wounded, pack up and leave before enemy reinforcements arrive in the form of a raid.

===== Faction defeated =====
Should you destroy all bases of a faction, the notification will say that since you just destroyed the last faction base, the faction no longer exists.

You can still view the defeated faction in the menu, and it will show 'Defeated' below it. They won't send any raids, nor will they send caravans. It should be noted that this does not actually decrease the total frequency of raids you will get, as whether a raid happens or not is determined separately and before a faction is chosen. It just means that the raids will not be from this faction and will be from other factions, and with fewer human factions to choose from the game will start sending more mechanoid raids, which can inadvertently make the game harder if you find mechanoids more difficult.

Destroying and/or befriending all factions will make mechanoids the only remaining threat for all future raids.
{{Clear}}

==== Ransom (Time remaining) ====
This event can only occur if a colonist of yours was captured by another faction.

Another faction captured one of your downed colonists somehow and will release that colonist to you... for a price. Common methods for capturing your colonists include grabbing downed colonists while retreating from a raid or downing an entire caravan.

The offer will be good for 24 game hours. If paid, the colonist will immediately appear on your map border or be sent via drop pod.

==== Rare thrumbos ====
Two to six [[thrumbo]]s will spawn at the edge of the map, staying around for a while to eat anything they can, including your crops, but not including [[anima tree]]s{{RoyaltyIcon}}. The player can attempt to hunt or tame them, both of which are very difficult. If no action is taken, they will leave on their own after a few days. It will not reoccur for 13 days.

==== Reactor ready ====
You have completed the 15 day warm up period for starting a [[ship reactor]]. If the rest of the necessary ship parts have been built, it may now be launched. Raids and sieges will drop considerably after this period is over.

==== Ship chunks ====
This event doesn't have an envelope, but rather appears in the notification bar up top, assuming these chunks don't strike your colony or pawns. One or more [[ship chunk]]s fall onto the map. They can be deconstructed for 5-6 [[component]]s and 20 [[steel]]. Rarely they can punch through roofs, damaging structures near it. Extremely rarely, they can land right on top of a colonist, killing them.

In Beta 18 the ship chunk creates an explosion upon landing. The falling chunks cast shadows on the ground, giving a little time for colonists to move out of the way.

==== Trauma savant ====
This event only has a 12% chance to trigger upon one of your colonists receiving a brain injury.

A colonist has suffered a brain injury and has gained great abilities from it at the cost of others, gaining 50% extra [[manipulation]] while losing the ability to [[talking|speak]], [[hearing|hear]], and have any [[social]] relationships. It also restores the brain to full functioning, despite the injury.

==== Quest completed ====
You've done what was [[quest|requested]] by other factions and will receive the reward at your nearest(?) base via pods very close to your buildings, along with an improvement in relations. While they attempt not to, the pods may also crash through your roof, so be prepared to repair them.

==== Anima tree sprout ====
{{Royalty|section=1}}
If an [[anima tree]] was killed by any means, this event can occur within a few days from the last death of the tree, appearing at random places that are unaffected by its radius.
</div>

== Bad ==
Bad Incidental events are either negative or cautionary in nature.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-IncidentalBad" style="display:inline-block;background:rgba(128,128,128,0.5);color:white;padding:10px;border-radius:5px;outline:none;user-select:none">Show Bad Incidental Events</div>

==== Ancient danger ====
{{main|Ancient shrine}}
{{quote|As (Colonist name) draws near the ancient wall a sense of foreboding overcomes him(her). (S)He isn't sure why, but (s)he feels this dusty structure may contain great dangers|Message that appears when the first colonist walks near.}}

This event is related to map generation and may not appear on every map. It may occur more than once per map. While listed as a danger, they are usually harmless until disturbed.

A colonist approached a walled out area of the map partially or completely under a mountain. It contains one or more of the following: ancient [[cryptosleep casket]]s, [[insectoids|bugs]] with hives, [[mechanoid]]s or treasure. Open at your own risk, by blowing a hole or deconstructing a section of the wall.

First, you'll need to deal with hostiles outside. Then, opening or attacking any casket will cause all the others to open instantly. The cryptosleep caskets usually contain humans, but may also contain [[megascarab]]s or be empty. The Spacers inside the caskets may or may not be dead. If alive, they may or may not be wounded, or armed and hostile. It's even possible for pawns incapable of violence to melee attack. If they are not hostile and can walk, they will try to escape. Any alive Spacers inside may be captured and recruited, usually with a low recruitment difficulty percentage.

Ancient structures may include other treasures like psychic lances and pulsers. [[Luciferium]] can be found in these buildings. Pod people sometimes carry [[plasteel]], [[component]]s, and [[gold]]. The caskets can be claimed and used or deconstructed by the colony.

==== Animal revenge ====
An animal that was harmed will go mad and become [[manhunter]]. When you select an animal to be hunted, the game will notify you if it has a chance for revenge and what the percentage is. Occasionally, all nearby pack members of that animal's species may start attacking their attacker.

==== Death ====
One of your pawns has died unintentionally. Slaughtering an animal or euthanizing a colonist or prisoner will not produce this event.

==== Drug addiction ====
A colonist has taken too much of a [[drugs|drug]] and is now [[Addictiveness|addicted]]. They will now need to regularly take that drug or suffer the withdrawal effects. See here for advice on [[Drugs#Fighting Addictions|fighting addictions]].

==== Heart attack ====
A character or tamed animal suffers a [[Injury#Heart Attack|heart attack]]. Characters will seek out a medical bed or their assigned bed for treatment. Animals will return to the nearest empty animal bed or sleeping spot. Doctors will then proceed to attempt to resuscitate the victim, using medicine if allowed and available.

During a heart attack, people or animals can fall unconscious or even die if not treated in time.

==== Mental Break ====
{{Main|Mental break}}
One of your colonists or prisoners has had it and has a [[Mood#Mental breakdowns|mental break]]. During this time, the afflicted colonist will be effectively unavailable, will not do colony work and can not be drafted. They will use forbidden doors and items. They will also attend to their needs such as sleep, recreation, and eating.

Depending on the nature of the mental break, there are several ways to handle the situation:

* Wall the person in – this is only possible if they wander to a suitable location.
* Try to arrest them. They will possibly resist and need to be beaten down, causing injury. This will also give them a fairly long-lasting mood debuff ("I was arrested!") after you release them from jail. Arresting temporary members will immediately cause their faction to become hostile.
* Wait out the situation - This takes a while for most minor breaks.

==== Overdose ====
{{Main|Overdose}}
One of your colonists or animals has [[overdose]]d. There is a risk of overdose when taking any [[drug|hard drug]], as well as when taking too many non-social drugs in general. This can cause permanent damage or even death.

==== Predator hunting ====
A wild, hungry predator has targeted one of your colonists or tamed animals for killing and eating. This will only be triggered if a hungry predator is on the map. This means if there are few wild animals near it, or if it's dangerously close to your base or pen, in some cases it can be a good idea to put out food to feed the predator so this event does not trigger. A hunting predator is different from normal enemies in a couple of ways. While regular enemies will tend to avoid targeting noncombatant [[children]], predators will target them the same as a regular pawn. Predators will also not stop attacking once a pawn is [[downed]], and will keep attacking until the pawn is dead and then eat the corpse. Predators don't change targets, even if a different pawn is closer, unless the targeted pawn becomes inaccessible, such as by entering the door to your base. As of version 1.4, colonists and turrets will not automatically identify predators hunting a pawn as hostile. Attacking the predator will trigger "animal revenge," which gives the predator the ability to change targets and all colonists and turrets will recognize it as a hostile. Version 1.5 patches this and they will be immediately identified as hostile by all colonists and turrets once they start hunting a pawn.

==== Prison break ====
[[File:Prison break.png|300px|thumb|right|Prison break]]
{{Template:Prison Break}}
{{Clear}}

==== Roof collapsed ====
This event only happens if something is crushed by the falling roof. Otherwise, it's only a notification.

All [[roof]]s must be supported by a constructed or rock wall within 6 spaces with contiguous roof sections in between itself and that wall. If either of these conditions changes such as via mining, an explosion or demolition, then the roof will collapse. Damage is dealt to the head and shoulders. Note that falling roofs underneath a mountain will instantly kill any pawn unfortunate enough to be crushed.

If demolishing a building, it's recommended to use the Remove Roof tool to remove the roof first before deconstructing the walls.

==== Too Deep: Infestation ====
Insectoid infestations can spawn when actively digging from a [[deep drill]]. Insectoids, but not hives, will pop out around the drill's area. These do not have the overhead mountain requirement like regular infestations. However, they are often smaller in number, and are unable to reproduce due to the lack of hive.
</div>

== Faction ==
These events are related with changes with other factions, either relations or leadership.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-IncidentalFaction" style="display:inline-block;background:rgba(128,128,128,0.5);color:white;padding:10px;border-radius:5px;outline:none;user-select:none">Show Faction Events</div>

==== Allied: (Faction) ====
Relations with another faction have risen above +75 and you are now allied with them. They may now [[#Friendlies|assist you]] against mutual enemies.

==== Enemy now neutral: (Faction) ====
This notification will appear once relations have been improved with a Hostile faction enough that they will no longer be hostile. Common ways to improve relations include releasing prisoners from their faction (which must leave the map safely to receive the bonus), having successful [[#Peace talks|peace talks]] or providing gifts.

==== Hostile faction ====
[[File:Bad will.png|300px|thumb|right|Badwill: Friendly traders face a mechanoid raid, loses members and turns against the player.]]
You've done something to anger another [[faction]] bad enough that they are now hostile to yours. This can happen if you arrest a faction member of theirs, rob one of their caravans or if they take too much friendly fire from your colonists, among other reasons. Rough factions that are neutral/allied will naturally decay goodwill, until they become hostile again.
{{Clear}}

==== Leader died ====
Occasionally, the leader of another faction will die, sometimes through no action on your part. The popup window will also announce his or her successor.

This alert uses the variable title of the leader in question. For example, if the "boss" of a pirate band dies you will see 'Boss died', if the "chief" died, then it will read 'Chief died', and so on.

This will also happen if the leader personally comes to raid your base and is killed in action. Killing an enemy faction leader will give a mood buff for a while to the colonist that accomplished this.

===== New Leader =====
Similar to the Leader Died event, except this one occurs only when you've succeeded in both capturing and [[#New recruit|recruiting]] another faction's leader. The leader then places first at the colonist bar, instead of last.

== Informational Events ==
These events serve purely to give information about the game, and have no physical gameplay implications.

<div id="mw-customcollapsible-IncidentalInfo" class="mw-collapsible">

==== About: Electricity ====
Appears when you finish researching [[Research#Electricity|Electricity]]. Reminds you of the power of electric appliances, and the [[power]] infrastructure required to maintain them.

==== About: Getting advanced components ====
Appears when you finish researching [[Research#Fabrication|Fabrication]]. Reminds you that you need [[advanced component]]s to build a [[fabrication bench]], and the potential means of obtaining them.

==== About: Launching the ship ====
Appears when you finish researching [[Research#Starflight basics|Starflight Basics]]. This is a simple reminder about the dangers of powering up the [[ship reactor]] once built. Once turned on, the number of raids will greatly increase for the next 15 days.

==== Persona Core Offer ====
A non-hostile faction will notify you that they know where an [[Persona core]] is located: a critical component for building a ship. They will want 1500 silver for this information. However, you can only make this request at the [[comms console]] with factions which have at least +40 [[goodwill]].

You can always request for a persona core location with 100% success, even if this event doesn't trigger, so long as you have the requisite goodwill. It only serves to remind the player that it is possible.

==== Summer ====
This event occurs at the beginning of the summer [[quadrum]], if you are lacking suitable [[apparel]] for winter's [[temperature]]s. It merely informs you that you are ill-prepared for the winter. Grow some more food and get some warm clothing. Plan ahead for any additions to your colony during these seasons, including recruits and born animals.

==== Unwaveringly loyal ====
Appears when you first capture an unwaveringly loyal [[prisoner]]. They are unable to be recruited as a colonist or be [[ideoligion|converted]]{{IdeologyIcon}}, but can be released, [[slave|enslaved]]{{IdeologyIcon}}, or used for a variety of [[human resources]].

==== About: Anima tree linking ====
{{Royalty|section=1}}
Appears when an [[anima tree]] has 20 anima grass around it. Reminds you that a colonist with ''Natural'' meditation can begin the linking ritual, gaining a level of [[psycast]]ing in the process.

==== Baby Prep ====
{{Biotech|section=1}}
Appears when a human's [[reproduction|pregnancy]] is at its third trimester. Labor will happen without warning within the next 6 days, so prepare a clean hospital with a good doctor.
</div>

== Social ==
These events cover relationships changes between 2 pawns. Currently, all events relate to marital status.
<div class="mw-customtoggle-IncidentalSocial" style="display:inline-block;background:rgba(128,128,128,0.5);color:white;padding:10px;border-radius:5px;outline:none;user-select:none">Show Social Events</div>

<div id="mw-customcollapsible-IncidentalSocial" class="mw-collapsible">

==== New lovers ====
You receive the announcement that two characters have become lovers, and "now want to sleep together". These are usually colonists, but a pair of [[prisoner]]s can also become lovers. They will receive [[mood]] boosts or debuff proportional to their [[opinion]] of their partner, with +/- 1 mood for every 10 opinion above/below zero.

Starting the moment their new relationship is announced, couples will ''immediately'' have a -4 mood debuff for "''sleeping alone''", even if they won't get their first chance to sleep together for hours. This can be remedied by assigning both pawns to a two person bed, such as the [[double sleeping spot]], [[double bedroll]], [[double bed]] or [[royal bed]]. A [[double bedroll]] is preferred when in a [[caravan]]. Couples that sleep in the same bed can also perform [[Lovin]]' for a mood boost to both partners.
{{Clear}}

==== Breakup ====
A couple splits, complete with the Mood and Social penalties for both colonists. The one initiating the break-up is better off than the other in the couple.

==== Rejected proposal ====
After two characters [[#New lovers|fall in love]], one of them proposed marriage but is turned down, which may result in the couple breaking up. The proposing one suffers a mood penalty of -18 for 25 days. They may accept another offer in the future. Note that a later, accepted proposal will not remove the mood effects of the previous, rejected ones.

==== Marriage is on! ====
A couple that has been together for a while will announce their engagement. The wedding will take place some time in the future, at a [[marriage spot]], or any gathering spot ([[table]] or [[campfire]]) in lieu of one. Both fiancees and married pawns, like lovers, will want to sleep in the same bed. They receive mood boosts or debuffs depending on the relationship with their couple. They can also receive a mood boost from lovin'.

When the day of the wedding arrives, it will take place regardless of the entire colony's attendance. Pawns will sometimes take the family name of their partner upon marriage. After the ceremony takes place, a reception will follow with everyone drinking, smoking and eating if hungry. Getting married, as well as taking part in the marriage ceremony, gives a substantial, fairly long-lasting {{+|40}} mood buff to the newly weds, and {{+|20}} to attendees.

Colonists who do not reach the meeting point on time, such as those sleeping, fighting fires or lying incapacitated in bed, will not gain the mood buff from the event. A quick "draft" and "undraft" for everybody ''but'' the couple should be enough to coerce all capable colonists to attend. Colonists on caravans will not attend.

If the couple happens to be busy at the exact moment the wedding is to take place, for example, because they are drafted or loading a caravan, those who are not members of the trade group will remain waiting at attendance and perform no task at all, except for eating until the couple comes back.

==== Affair ====
Somebody who is already married starts an affair with a single person. It is possible for your colonists to cheat on their lovers who aren't members of your faction.

==== Divorce ====
A married couple has divorced; as a normal break up, but with worse mood penalties.

The '''harbinger tree''' is a [[tree]] added by the [[Anomaly DLC]] that consumes [[meat]] and [[corpse]]s to fuel their own growth.

== Occurrence ==
Harbinger trees can spawn randomly from an event after activating the [[Void monolith]], spawned by the [[void provocation]] psychic ritual, or can be planted via a [[Harbinger seed]] which can be acquired as a [[quest]] reward or bought from traders. The random event that spawns harbringer trees will not trigger if Ambient Horror is selected in [[AI Storytellers#Anomaly|Storyteller]] settings. 

== Summary ==
Harbinger trees consume [[corpse]]s, [[meat]] and [[skull]]s placed around them. They can eat both rotten and fresh corpses, as well as all forms of raw meat ([[insect meat|insect]], [[human meat|human]], [[twisted meat|twisted]]). Harbinger trees will not consume [[pemmican]] or [[meals]] of any type.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
| [[File:Create Corpse Stockpile.png|frameless|none]] || When you select a harbinger tree, a UI button for creating a corpse stockpile appears.

This button creates a [[dumping stockpile]] around the tree, within the consumption radius of the tree (3).

By default, it accepts almost all fresh, or rotten corpses:
* Humanlike corpses, except [[unnatural corpse]]s
* Animal corpses
* Entity corpses
By default, it does not accept:
* [[Mechanoid]] corpses
|}

When fully grown and harvested, they provide {{Icon Small|Twisted meat|30|30}} [[twisted meat]] and a base amount of {{Icon Small|Bioferrite|30|15}} [[bioferrite]]. Trees that are not harvested and destroyed through other means will drop twisted meat but no bioferrite. The amount of twisted meat dropped is unaffected by difficulty setting and pawn plants skill, but the amount of bioferrite harvested is affected by both.

A harbinger tree is not dangerous in any way and despite the flavor text does not cause any events or phenomena beyond consuming corpses.

The growth rate of a harbinger tree will increase up to a maximum 150% during the day while it is actively consuming meat. Each individual harbinger tree tracks the nutrition it has consumed, and upon reaching 100, it will spawn a new sapling, regardless if the original tree is fully grown. Upon reaching maturity, a harbinger tree has a chance to spawn another harbinger tree nearby. A body size 1 human corpse provides a harbinger tree 5.2 nutrition, meaning that ~19.2 corpses are needed to force a second harbinger tree to sprout. A single piece of meat has a nutrition of .05, requiring 2,000 meat total to spawn a new tree. The new tree will preferentially spawn near the original tree but will spawn elsewhere on the map if a nearby tile is not available. The closet a new tree will spawn is within 4 orthogonal tiles of the original. A new tree will not spawn within 2 tiles of a wall but can spawn adjacent to player placed floors.

Despite both being [[dendrovore]]s, [[thrumbo]]s will not eat harbinger trees, while [[alphabeaver]]s will.

== Analysis ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Bioferrite production analysis}}
Harbinger trees provide a low-tech, no power method to get rid of corpses without using fire or an [[electric crematorium]]. All gear worn by consumed corpses is destroyed, similar to cremation.

This is vital for tribal or low-tech settlements who want to reduce the number of potential [[Shambler]]s on the map during a [[Death pall]] or similar event, as there is no limit to the number of times a corpse can be turned into a shambler. Note that shamblers can still reanimate from corpses in the process of being consumed by harbinger trees, however said shamblers will be weakened since non-vital bodyparts digested by harbinger trees will not regenerate on reanimation.

Later on, harbinger trees can be used as a source of [[twisted meat]] for mid and late game recipes like the [[juggernaut serum]] without having to fight and butcher dangerous entities like [[fleshbeast]]s. It is impractical to farm harbinger trees using meat farmed from ranching or hunting, although colonies experiencing massive raids may be able to meet their serum production needs off the yield from harbinger trees alone. A single [[Fleshmass nucleus]] produces significantly more twisted meat in a more consistent manner, but requires regular suppression and defeating a [[Fleshmass heart]] to acquire.

{{Split|destination=Thoughts|reason=Split this back into Mood and [[Thoughts]]. Page is unworkably large, and needs a TOC which it can't have without being massive.}}
{{Stub| reason = needs to add the "listening to instrument" details from Musical_instrument}}

{{Imagemargin|[[File:mood_preview.png|right]]|30px}}
Mood is a game mechanic that describes a colonists feelings based on thier environment and experiences, represented by a blue bar in the [[Needs|Needs tab]] tab ranging from 0 to 100%. Low moods cause [[mental break|mental breaks]], while high moods may trigger [[Mental inspiration|inspirations]]. Mood is affected by game difficulty, a colonists [[traits]] and environment, and whether or not the pawn is assigned to work they have [[skills|Passion]] for.

Prisoners with high mood are easier to recruit and less likely to break out or go berserk, colonists with a low enough mood for a long enough time may leave your colony.

== Mechanics ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=How often does mood tick - it can increase at 12/hour but is it once per hour, or does it increase at +2/10mins etc}}
[[File:Colonist needs beauty.png|frame|right|The Needs tab.]]Colonists have a "Mood (%)" and a "Mood Target", shown in the [[Needs|Needs tab]]. A "Mood Target", shown as a white triangle below the mood bar, is a representation of all the positive and negative [[thoughts]] held by a colonist and changes instantly depending on the colonists exact situation, while "Mood" is a blue bar that represents a colonist's mood in that exact moment. Pawns have a base mood of 32 and the baseline is affected by the [[AI Storytellers#Colonist mood|Colonist Mood]] AI storyteller setting - note that the default difficulty options also change this setting.

The Mood bar moves towards the Mood Target indicator at a maximum rate of {{+|12}} per [[time|in-game hour]] when mood is increasing or {{--|8}} per in-game hour when decreasing. For example, when a Hungry colonist (-6 mood) eats a meal, you'll see the mood target immediately jump to the right as the Hungry effect disappears, but the mood bar takes some time to inch its way toward the triangle. When a colonist is sleeping or otherwise unconscious, the mood bar stays in place, and any risk of a mental break is paused.

Three dividing lines on the mood bar, called the [[Mental Break Threshold]], represent mental danger zones- if the mood bar falls below these markers, there is a risk of a colonist having a [[Mental break]], where you will lose control over them and they will wander around and act against their and the colony's best interests. For a normal colonist, these lines are placed at 5% for an extreme break risk, 20% for a major break risk, and 35% for a minor break risk, although these thresholds can be changed by a colonist's [[traits]].

== Difficulty ==
Mood as a percentage is calculated by adding the overall difference between positive and negative thoughts to the "Base mood", a stat which is defined by your difficulty. For example, a pawn with ''Low expectations ({{+|18}})'' and ''Hungry ({{--|6}})'' on ''Peaceful'' difficulty will have a mood target of 54%.

The difficulty can be changed at any time during gameplay.

== Mood management ==
There are various ways of increasing mood, which generally fall into two self-explanatory categories: Remove the bad things and add more good things. There are a lot of mood-influencing [[Thoughts]].

Managing mood shows similarities to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs:

=== Basic needs ===
Keeping colonists fed, sheltered, well-rested, clothed, and as far from death as possible is the most important aspect of your colony. Nutrient paste is disgusting but the penalty for a hungry colonist is much greater, otherwise make sure your colony is more than a sleeping spot on an open field- walls and roofs are your friend. Be sure to pay close attention to the traits of your colonists, some hate being outdoors and would rather be kept in a small room, some demand the freedom of nudity, and some are just miserable people. Otherwise your own choices as a player can have a significant impact- making your colonists commit cannibalism, steal people's organs, or forcing everyone to wear cowboy hats made of human skin usually outweigh giving them an extra hour of rest every day.

=== Safety needs ===
Sickness and pain are going to be some of the greatest influences to the mood of your colony. Some colonist suffer from pre-existing scars or injuries which naturally lower their mood and you will have to overcompensate for these using other means. Providing clean, spacious, and well decorated bedrooms for each individual colonist, as well as a comfortable place to eat and spend time when not working or sleeping, are generally some of the best ways to provide positive mood. The difference between the best and worst of environments can be as much as 60 mood points.

=== Social needs ===
Having a lover or a pet, allowing colonists to socialize, and allotting time for recreational actives (time alone, entertainment, drugs) are all great sources of consistent positive mood. Beware that the death of a loved one, negative social interaction, and unfulfilled drug addictions can all result in negative mood. Providing beautiful work spaces with clean floors and [[quality]] furniture also passively increase mood. Consider spreading recreation time over the day to keep colonists' recreation need topped up at all times.

=== Passion ===
Assigning colonists to work they are passionate for cause them to learn that specific skill faster and gain a significant boost to mood.

Investing in a large, comfortable and impressive combined recreation and dining room pays off dividends. For a relatively low investment, the entire colony can get a substantial mood boost from simply eating a fine meal at a [[table]] and playing some horseshoes. An impressive bedroom only benefits one or two people, but the mood effects are permanent.

[[Lavish meal]]s, [[drugs]] or [[Psychic soothe pulser|artifacts]] can greatly increase mood in the short term, which helps keeping things running during stressful times. They are generally a challenge to keep up in the long-term.

=== Extreme measures ===
Sometimes, an unlucky pawn has enough combined negative modifiers (scar pain, drug withdrawal, deaths of family members, psychic drone) that they'll still be in the extreme break risk zone even if given the very best. If you don't want to deal with constant mental breaks, you have a few options.

To have a mental break, a pawn must be awake and able to move. This yields these strategies to prevent a mental break by inhibiting movement:
* Assigning the pawn to go to sleep (works for some hours until the rest bar fills up)
* Knocking out the pawn through Anesthesizing, [[neural heat dump]]{{RoyaltyIcon}}, [[Xenogerm]]s{{BiotechIcon}} or afflicting extreme blood loss with either [[Bloodfeeder]]{{BiotechIcon}} or [[hemogen]]{{BiotechIcon}} extraction.
* Putting the pawn in a [[cryptosleep casket]] (useful for events that inflict mood penalties, such as psychic drones, and various [[Events/Anomaly|Anomaly Events]])
* The famous/infamous "cut their legs off" approach (install peg legs, then remove them).

The [[Joywire]] implant gives +30 mood—at the significant cost of -20% consciousness, and it cannot be removed. Thus, it should be used as a permanent solution to permanent problems.

== Room stats ==
These thoughts occur when a colonist personally uses a room (and not just passes through it). [[Mods]] can create additional moods that are triggered by other room types, but in vanilla the only rooms are:
* Bedroom/Barracks
* Rec(reation) room
* Dining room
* Prison cell
* Hospital
* Throne room{{RoyaltyIcon}} ([[Royalty (DLC)|Royalty DLC]] only)
Note that most of these can be combined with others, although bedroom/barracks are mutually exclusive.

Also, a general "[[space]]" thought can be triggered where a colonist spends much of their time, based on the size of that room.

==== Intensities ====
Each of these thoughts have a range of intensities, listed here from worst to best. This is dependent on the room's [[Impressiveness]] stat. Most rooms don't have the full range listed.
# Awful
# Dull
# Mediocre
# Decent
# Slightly impressive
# Somewhat Impressive (/ Impressive*)
# Very impressive
# Extremely impressive
# Unbelievably impressive
# Wondrously impressive

:: ''(* As listed in Mood effects for "bedrooms", "cells" and "barracks", below, this is simply "Impressive".)''

These thoughts are given by (only) these rooms. If a room fills more than one definition, it can give multiple thoughts:
* '''Bedrooms''': When a colonist is designated to sleep alone (or with a lover*) in a room.
** Full range except Dull and Mediocre.
** Somewhat Impressive is listed as simply "Impressive"
* '''Barracks''': When multiple* colonists are designated to sleep in the same room.
** Full range.
** Somewhat Impressive is listed as simply "Impressive"
** As a rule of thumb, a poor quality barracks gives a -5 to mood vs. the equivalent private bedroom, higher quality barracks give -4.
* '''Dining room''': When a colonist eats in a room. This can simply be any room with a table and chair.
** Starts from Decent.
* '''Rec room''': When a colonist uses Recreation facilities in a room.
**Starts from Decent.
* '''Prison cell''': When a colonist sleeps alone in a room with a bed/spot designated as a prison bed.
** Full range except Dull and Mediocre.
** Somewhat Impressive is listed as simply "Impressive"
* '''Prison barracks''': When multiple colonists sleeps together in a room with beds/spots designated as prison beds.
** Full range except Mediocre and Decent.
** Somewhat Impressive is listed as simply "Impressive"
* '''Hospital''': When a colonist stays at a hospital due to injury, illness or surgery.
** Full range except Mediocre and Decent.

:: ''(* A pair of colonists who are [[Social#Lovers|lovers]] and sleep in the same bed do not count against each other when defining a barracks.)''

== Thought details ==
==== Justified execution ====
This thought occurs in every colonist when a "guilty" [[prisoner]] is killed by a colonist. A prisoner is guilty for 24 hours after attacking the colony, killing/downing a colonist or attempting escape.

==== Someone was organ-harvested ====
This thought occurs in every colonist when an organ is harvested from a prisoner or guest. This does not occur when the organ is harvested by the installation of a replacement, such as a [[bionic heart]], nor does it happen when removing an artificial body part.

==== Justified execution of colonist ====
This thought occurs in every colonist when a "guilty" colonist that is held prisoner is subsequently killed by another colonist. A prisoner is guilty for 24 hours after attacking the colony, killing/downing a colonist or attempting escape.

==== Colonist organ-harvested ====
This thought occurs in every colonist when an organ is harvested from a colonist. This does not occur when the organ is harvested by the installation of a replacement, such as a [[bionic heart]], nor does it happen when removing an artificial body part.

==== A prisoner was sold ====
This thought occurs in every colonist when a prisoner is sold into slavery.

==== Ate fine meal ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid eats a [[Meals|fine meal]].

==== Ate lavish meal ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid eats a [[Meals|lavish meal]].

==== Ate nutrient paste ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid eats [[Meals|nutrient paste]].

==== Ate without table ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid eats without a table.

It occurs frequently even if you have tables, for many times colonists aren't bothered to go long distances to a table to eat and will simply eat off the floor instead. This can be avoided by watching pawns who are far from base, and when they pull out food and start to eat, draft and immediately undraft them, then have them haul the dropped food back to storage.

==== Ate raw food ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid eats [[raw food]].

==== [[Beauty]] ====
These thoughts occur when a human's environment opinion rises above or falls below certain values.

* Hideous environment: When their opinion dips below 15.
* Very ugly environment: When their opinion dips below 30.
* Ugly environment: When their opinion dips below 42.
* Pleasant environment: When their opinion rises above 58.
* Very pleasant environment: when their opinion rises above 70.
* Gorgeous environment: When their opinion rises above 85.

==== Bionics ====
These thoughts occur when a pawn with specific traits has bionic body parts installed on them.

For Body modder pawns:
* Body modder frustrated: no parts.
* Body modder pleased: 1 part.
* Body modder quite pleased: 2 parts.
* Body modder delighted: 3 parts.
* Body modder enchanted: 4 parts.
* Body modder overjoyed: 5 parts.
* Machine body is complete: 6 or more parts.

For Body purist pawns:
* Body purist squeamish: 1 part.
* Body purist disgusted: 2 parts.
* Body purist violated: 3 parts.
* Body purist horrified: 4 parts.
* Body purist nightmare: 5 parts.
* I have become what I hate: 6 or more parts.

==== Cabin fever (outdated information) ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid has spent a great amount of time inside. It has 2 stages:
* Mild: more than 140000 ticks (7 game days) inside.
* Serious: more than 280000 ticks (14 game days) inside.

The humanoid does not take on this thought when incapacitated (whether indoors or not) or imprisoned, but the timer for ticks inside is still active.

==== Cannibalism ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid eats [[Raw food|human meat]] in various forms.
* Raw cannibalism: When the humanoid eats raw human meat, butchered or not. This happens concurrently with the 'Ate raw food' debuff.
* Cooked cannibalism: When the humanoid eats human meat cooked into meals.

==== Catharsis ====
This thought occurs after a colonist has a [[Mood#Mental_breakdown|mental break]] due to poor [[mood]].

For this thought to occur the mental break must be allowed to run its course. Interrupting the break, by downing or arresting the affected colonist, will cause this thought to not occur. Berserk breaks are an exception, being able to grant the Catharsis buff even if interrupted.

==== Cold ====
This thought occurs when the outside temperature drops below a pawn's [[minimum comfortable temperature]]. There are 3 variations depending on how low the temperature is relative to this value
* Cold: {{Temperature|1|10|delta}} below comfort.
* Very cold: {{Temperature|11|20|delta}} below comfort.
* Shivering: {{Temperature|21||delta}} or lower below comfort.

==== My <relation> <name> died ====
This thought occurs when a colonist's family member dies. The death need not happen in the player's colony to cause this mood. Severity is dependent on the closeness of the relation - with children and spouses being highest, and relations outside of their immediate family being lower.

==== Colonist banished ====
This thought occurs when a colonist is banished from the colony or a caravan.

==== Colonist left to die ====
This thought occurs when a colonist is abandoned from a caravan in conditions where he will most likely not survive. It usually occurs if the outside temperature is outside of the colonist's comfortable range, or the colonist is downed.

If this colonist is a relative, friend or rival of another colonist, they will gain the thought relating to their deaths (eg "My son died" if a son is abandoned) on top of this thought.

==== Colonist left unburied ====
This thought occurs when a colonist corpse is in the open for more than 80000 ticks (4 game days).

==== Comfort ====
This thought occurs when a colonist's [[comfort]] rises above or falls below a certain value. It has various stages:
* Uncomfortable: When comfort falls below 10%.
* Comfortable: When comfort reaches 60% and above.
* Very comfortable: When comfort reaches 70% and above.
* Extremely comfortable: When comfort reaches 80% and above.
* Luxuriantly comfortable: When comfort reaches 90% and above.

==== Tainted apparel ====
This though occurs when a pawn is wearing apparel stripped from a corpse. Mood effect ranges from -3 to -8 based on how many pieces the pawn's wearing. 
Bloodlust pawns don't gain the debuff.

==== Defeated hostile leader ====
This occurs when the colony kills an enemy faction leader.

==== Disturbed sleep ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid or animal walks within seven squares (without walls in between) of a sleeping humanoid, or the humanoid is called to do work while sleeping.

==== Exhaustion ====
These thoughts occur when a humanoid's rest level dips below certain values. See [[Rest]].

* Drowsy: When rest level dips below 28%.
* Tired: When rest level dips below 14%.
* Exhausted: When rest level dips below 1%. Afterwards the pawn may collapse and start sleeping on the ground.

==== Forced to take drugs ====
This thought occurs when you administer non-medical drugs to a [[teetotaler]] using a medical operation.

Medical drugs such as [[penoxycyline]] do not trigger this thought.

==== Hot ====
This thought occurs when the outside temperature is higher than the pawn's [[maximum comfortable temperature]]. There are 4 variations depending on high the temperature is relative to this value.
* Hot: {{Temperature|1|10|delta}} above comfortable temperature.
* Very hot: {{Temperature|11|20|delta}} above comfortable temperature.
* Extremely hot: {{Temperature|21|30|delta}} above comfortable temperature.
* Burning up: {{Temperature|31||delta}} or higher above comfortable temperature.

==== Human leather apparel ====
This though occurs when a pawn is wearing apparel made using human leather. Mood effect ranges from -3 to -8 based on how many pieces the pawn's wearing. 
Bloodlust or Cannibal pawns instead gain a mood buff from +3 to +8.

==== Hungover (pounding) ====
This thought is the first of three hangover stages that occurs after a humanoid has become drunk. It has a mood effect of -10. Consciousness is reduced by 18% and is accompanied by mild vomiting.

==== Hungover (strong) ====
This thought is the second hangover stage that occurs after a humanoid has become drunk. It has a mood effect of -5. Consciousness is reduced by 8%.

==== Hungover (slight) ====
This thought is the third and final hangover stage that occurs after a humanoid has become drunk. It has a mood effect of -2. Consciousness is reduced by 3%.

==== Hunger ====
These thoughts occurs when a humanoid is hungry and needs food. There are several severity levels depending on how long the pawn hasn't had access to food. See [[Saturation]].
* Hungry: When saturation level dips below 0.3.
* Urgently hungry: When saturation level dips below 0.2.
* Starving: When saturation level reaches 0 and [[malnutrition]] kicks in, which will eventually kill the colonist.
** Trivial: 0 - 19% severity of malnutrition.
** Minor: 20 - 39% severity of malnutrition.
** Moderate: 40 - 59% severity of malnutrition.
** Severe: 60 - 79% severity of malnutrition.
** Extreme: 80 - 100% severity of malnutrition. After this, the unfortunate pawn dies.

==== I Butchered humanlike ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid processes a humanlike corpse at a butcher table.

==== Imprisoned ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid is kept as a [[Prisoner]].

==== Insulted ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid is insulted by another humanoid.

==== In darkness ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid has spent more than 4000 ticks (1/5 of a game day) away from any light source.

The humanoid does not take on this thought when sleeping (whether in darkness or not), but the timer for ticks away from a light source is still active while sleeping.

==== Inebriated (warm) ====
This thought occurs after a humanoid consumes [[beer]] and their alcohol level reaches 10%. Pain level is reduced by 10%, while manipulation is reduced by 2%.

==== Inebriated (tipsy) ====
This thought occurs after a humanoid consumes [[beer]] and their alcohol level reaches 25%. Pain level is reduced by 20%, while consciousness is reduced by 10%.

==== Inebriated (drunk) ====
This thought occurs after a humanoid consumes [[beer]] and their alcohol level reaches 40%. Pain level is reduced by 50%, while consciousness is reduced by 35%, accompanied by mild vomiting. At this level it triggers a tale that may show up in an art description; and the humanoid will soon start having a hangover.

==== Inebriated (hammered) ====
This thought occurs after a humanoid consumes [[beer]] and their alcohol level reaches 70%. Pain level is reduced by 70%, while consciousness is reduced by 60%, accompanied by vomiting. Consuming more beer at this stage may trigger a blackout.

==== Joywire ====
A pawn with a [[joywire|joywire implant]] has a permanent +30 mood buff. However, the implant also permanently reduces consciousness.

==== Expectation moodlets ====
These thoughts occurs when total colony wealth is below certain thresholds. It has 6 stages at different wealth values, and also affects recreation tolerance loss (higher wealth colonies need more recreation variety).

Additionally, [[Titles#Conceited vs Non Conceited|conceited nobles]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} have Noble and Royal Expectations at the ranks of Baron and Count respectively. These expectations replace the normal expectations moodlet. Note that despite only being seen in-game with the [[Royalty DLC]] activated, these additional moodlets are defined in the Core game.

Finally, [[Ideoligion#Roles|Ideoligious Roles]] can increase the expectations of the pawn by two levels, so a pawn that would normally have Low Expectations would then have High Expectations. To prevent these "going off the scale", at High and Sky-High, Elite and Supreme are used instead. Note that despite only being seen in-game with the [[Ideology DLC]] activated, these additional moodlets are defined in the Core game.

|}

Slaves do not have the default expectations of colonists, instead they have unique expectations with a generally higher mood boost. These expectations replace colonist expectations based on what the pawn's expectations would be if they were a colonist based on colony wealth and noble status.

|}

==== My organ harvested ====
This thought occurs when a pawn has an organ harvested. This stacks for every organ taken.

==== Naked ====
This thought occurs when a non-nudist humanoid is not wearing any [[clothing]].

==== New colony hope ====
Occurs once "New colony optimism" expires. This thought is the second stage of the start-of-game "boost" to help the newly landed colonists keep their mood up while they set up beds, furniture, decorations, and other structures.

==== New colony optimism ====
A starting "boost", this thought occurs at the start of the game to help the newly landed colonists keep their mood up while they set up beds, furniture, decorations, and other structures.

==== Observed corpse====
This thought occurs when a corpse is visible to a colonist - not buried or incinerated. 
Corpses can be seen within a radius of 4 tiles, but not if they are being carried by someone else. 
If a pawn goes to the corpse with the intent to bury it and notices it first because of this, they will not have this thought, nor while carrying the corpse to its final resting place. 
Blind pawns (Sight 0%) can't see corpses and won't get this moodlet.

==== Pain ====
These thoughts occur when a humanoid is under [[pain]]. It has 4 stages depending on pain severity.
* Pain (little): When pain is between 1 - 14%.
* Pain (moderate): When pain reaches 15%.
* Pain (acute)： When pain reaches 40%.
* Pain (shock)：When pain reaches 80%. Colonists in this state are incapacitated.

==== Passion (work)====
These thoughts occur when a pawn is doing work they have a passion for (see the bio).
* Minor passion: When a pawn does work they have a passion level of interested for.
* Burning passion: When a pawn does work they have a passion level of burning for.

These work passions, especially burning, can help a colonist who does that work full time become much more likely to gain inspirations and much less likely to have mental breaks due to a much better mood most of the time. Combined with the exp boost to skills a pawn is passionate about, it makes passion in a desired field invaluable - a colonist with a moderate skill level but a burning passion is in many cases superior to a mid-high skill pawn due to the ability to become incredibly skilled in a comparatively short period of time.

As dumb labor like hauling and cleaning are not tied to a skill, no one will ever gain happiness from them. Even thousands of years in the future, we still all have boring chores to do.

==== Psychic effects ====

Psychic drones occur during the [[Events#Psychic ship|psychic ship]] or [[Events#Psychic drone|psychic drone]] events.
*Low: Psychic drone event, or 0 - 2.5 days after the crash.
*Medium: Psychic drone event, or 2.5 - 5 days after the crash.
*High: Psychic drone event, or 5 - 7.5 days after the crash.
*Extreme: 7.5 days or later after the crash.

Psychic soothes occur during the [[Events#Psychic soothe|psychic soothe event]].

==== Recreation ====
{{Main|Recreation}}
These thoughts occur when the recreation meter of a humanoid rises or falls below certain values.

* Recreation-starved: When the recreation meter is at 0%.
* Recreation-deprived: When the recreation meter is between 1% and 14%.
* Recreation unfulfilled: When the recreation meter is between 15% and 29%.
* Recreation satisfied: When the recreation meter is between 70% and 84%.
* Recreation fully satisfied: When the recreation meter is at least 85%.

==== Sick ====
This thought occurs when a colonist has an [[illness]].

==== Sleeping conditions ====
These thoughts occur when a humanoid sleeps in various unfavorable conditions.
* Slept outside: When a humanoid sleeps in an outdoor space, or an incomplete room.
** This thought does not occur in unroofed rooms.
* Slept on ground: When a humanoid uses a sleeping spot or sleeps on the ground.
* Slept in cold: When a humanoid sleeps when the temperature falls below {{Temperature|{{Q|Human|Min Comfortable Temperature}} }}. (clothing doesn't change value)
* Slept in heat: When a humanoid sleeps when the temperature raises above {{Temperature|{{Q|Human|Max Comfortable Temperature}} }}. (clothing doesn't change value)

==== Someone's organ harvested ====
This thought occurs in every colonist, [[Thoughts list#My organ harvested|except for the patient]] and the one performing the operation, when an organ is harvested from a prisoner, guest, or colonist.

==== Strange feeling ====
This thought occurs when a [[psychic soothe pulser]] is used.

==== Spacious interior ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid has 41 or more tiles accessible within radius 7 in the current room (objects that can be walked over do not affect this - see [[Space]]).

==== Cramped interior ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid has 4-10 tiles accessible within radius 7 in the current room (objects that can be walked over do not affect this - see [[Space]]).

==== Confined interior ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid has 3 or less tiles accessible within radius 7 in the current room (objects that can be walked over do not affect this - see [[Space]]).

==== Was imprisoned ====
This thought occurs after a [[prisoner]] is released.
It does not occur to newly recruited prisoners.

==== Ratty apparel ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid is wearing apparel which has health between 21% and 50%.

==== Tattered apparel ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid is wearing apparel which has health 20% or less.

==== We butchered humanlike ====
This thought occurs when a human corpse is processed at a butcher table.

== Notes ==
If a colonist is resurrected using a [[Resurrector mech serum]], the various mood penalties from losing a spouse, friend, colonist and so forth are removed. If there were bonuses such as from a recent marriage, these will not return, either for the directly affected pawns or anybody else in the colony.<ref>[https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=49046.30 Topic about resurrection on the official Ludeon forum.]</ref>

{{Stub|reason=Could still be missing a few quests. Biotech quests possibly incomplete.}}
'''Quests''' are a class of [[event]] where a challenge is performed in order to gain a reward.

==Summary==
{{TOCright}}
Quests are found in the Quests tab. Most quests are offered by a [[faction]], but they can be offered by individual pawns or unaligned AI's. Most quests have to be accepted, but some are automatically given. Some quests have requirements to be accepted, and others have a time limit for acceptance. Quests can be "trashed" by clicking on the trash can icon, but is purely visual and can be reversed (Quests/Historical).

Most quests are time sensitive, and have one or both of these timers:
*The first timer is the limit to ''accept'' the quest. If not accepted, the quest will be rejected.
*The second timer is the time to ''do'' the quest, or alternatively, how long a quest lasts for.
Not all quests have a time limit. The 3 [[endings|endgame]] quests in particular (Ship to the Stars, Royal Ascent{{RoyaltyIcon}}, Archonexus{{IdeologyIcon}}) can be done at any time.

Some Quests, such as the beggars quest, are accepted automatically

Without the [[Royalty DLC]], you will receive 1 quest every 10 day interval - this means that quests can be up to 19.9 days apart. With the Royalty DLC active, you will get 2 quests every 12 day interval, as this DLC introduces many more possible quests.{{Check Tag|Verify|Taken from XML files. Verification ingame needed}}

===Difficulty===
Quests use the [[raid points]] mechanic to determine quest size. In general, the larger the colony, the more difficult and more rewarding quests will be. Unlike standard Major Threats that only use the raid points of that map tile or caravan, quests use the total raid point value from all colonies and caravans. If multiple colonies are open simultaneously, carefully read which colony will encounter the quest threat.

Quests can be from 1 to 3 stars. The more stars, the higher the raid point multiplier, and the harder the quest will be. One star quests are standard raid points. Two star quests are double Raid Points and Three Star is triple raid points. Quests also have a 30% raid point variance that causes quest threats to be up to 30% smaller or larger. These variation takes place on all Storytellers and the 50% Randy Random Raid Point multiplier does not apply to quests.

The 3 [[endings|endgame]] quests, exclusively, are listed as 4 stars. However, they do not scale in the same way as with other quests.

=== Rewards ===
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Table of all Options, with DLC, Core tag, commonalities etc, better description of how rewards are selected (select main reward, fill with filler etc), how to selected/deselected goodwill and honor, how honor is awarded (pawn selection, how away missions required the honored pawn to participate etc)}}

There are a few reward types - from simple rewards such as [[plasteel]] and [[hyperweave]], to quest-exclusive items like [[tornado generator]]s and [[vanometric power cell]]s, to factional [[goodwill]] and new colonists. Sometimes, the quest is its own reward, such as solving a [[condition causer]]{{RoyaltyIcon}} or escaping the planet. Quests may only have 1 reward, or they can have a pool of 3 rewards to choose from.

If you accept a quest for [[goodwill]] or [[honor]]{{RoyaltyIcon}}, those will be the only quest rewards, so you cannot receive both honor, goodwill and items from the same quest, excluding hospitality, bandit camp and crashed shuttle quests.

Reward preferences can be altered at the bottom of the quest menu. This allows you to choose if you want [[goodwill]] or [[honor]]{{RoyaltyIcon}} from a specific faction. Disabling these rewards means you'll get another pool of rewards to choose from, but it is still possible to receive faction goodwill through keeping high moods during hospitality quests.

Certain pawn join rewards - typically the ones offered by the pawn themselves, but all on console - will not give detailed information about the pawn themselves. You ''will'' be able to see their age and [[backstory]] before accepting. For example, a ''Nurse'' will always have some amount of Medical skill, but will almost always be incapable of Violence. However, others may allow you to preview them as if viewing their info tab.

Main reward options:
* [[Honor]]
* [[Goodwill]]
* New colonists
* [[Flatscreen television]]
* [[Telescope]]
* [[Gladius]]
* [[Recurve bow]]
* [[Infinite chemreactor]]
* [[Psychic animal pulser]]
* [[Vanometric power cell]]
* [[Tornado generator]]

==Failure==
Most quests can be failed in a couple of general ways:
#Not accepting it / Not completing it in time.
#Becoming hostile with the quest giver's faction.
#Becoming neutral with an enemy faction you were supposed to fight.
Quests can be failed in other ways, depending on the type of quest. No matter what, if you've gotten the quest reward, then you have the reward.

=List of quests=
This section covers all the quests available in Core RimWorld. For DLC content, see [[#Royalty]], [[#Ideology]], and [[#Biotech]].

==Bandit Camp==
A faction has contacted you about an outpost of a mutual enemy. Destroy it to be rewarded.

When accepting this quest:
*An event space generates somewhere near your colony, with enemies inside.
**Timer starts as soon as the base is generated, and will remain the same regardless of when it is accepted.
As soon as the enemies are "fleeing" (>50% of enemies [[downed]] or [[death|killed]]), you will be rewarded at your colony. Plus, the camp itself can generate with some loot.

==Downed Refugee==
A refugee has contacted you for help. They are [[downed]] and need your help. As a pawn join event, it will be less common as you gain more people.

When this quest appears:
*You have a certain time frame to reach the downed refugee. The refugee won't starve or bleed out before you reach the event space.
*Any specified threats will be present. An unknown threat may appear as you approach the refugee.
*Generally, the refugee won't have any bleeding wounds at all, meaning you have time to deal with any threats that appear. When rescued, they will gain the {{+|18}} ''Rescued'' [[mood]]let for 30 days.

Select a colonist, right click on the refugee, and click "offer help" in order to accept them into your colony. You can see the pawn's bio and stats before accepting them. If you don't like the pawn, then you can leave with no penalty.

==Item Stash==
You have been contacted about items nearby your colony.

When this quest appears:
*You have a certain time frame to reach the item stash.
*Any specified threats will be present. An unknown threat may appear as you approach the stash.

==Peace Talks==
An enemy faction is willing to talk. Depending on your negotiator, they may become ease relations, or immediately attack you. This needs a hostile faction that is willing to become allies.

When this quest appears:
*You have a certain, random time frame to reach the peace talk location. This time is not listed in the quest description. As soon as you reach the event tile, the event will trigger.
*This quest has various outcomes, increasing or decreasing [[goodwill]]. The chance of each outcome is determined randomly{{Check Tag|Fact Check needed|What are the specific chances for each result?}}, influenced by the [[Negotiation Ability]]{{Check Tag|Fact Check needed|How does this ability impact the results?}} of the best pawn you set into the caravan.
**'''Triumph''' - Goodwill increases by 50-75, faction leaves a gift of silver.
**'''Success''' - Goodwill increases by 25-75.
**'''Flounder''' - No change in relations.
**'''Backfire''' - Goodwill decreases by 10-50.
**'''Disaster''' - Goodwill decreases by 25-75, ''immediate attack'' on caravan party.
Peace talks will train the negotiator's Social skill. Even if peace talks were a "Triumph", the faction may still be hostile to you. You can send gifts to increase goodwill to 0, where they will become neutral. You cannot ever gain goodwill with [[pirate]] factions or any faction listed as "hostile" in the Factions screen, so they will never offer you this quest.

==Prisoner Rescue==
A prisoner has called you for help. If you can free them, then they will join the colony. As a pawn join event, it will be less common as you gain more people.

When this quest appears:
*You have a certain timeframe to reach the prisoner camp. When you arrive, you'll need to defeat all enemies.
*The prisoner starts with some [[food]] in their cell. When rescued, they will gain the {{+|18}} ''Rescued'' [[mood]]let for 30 days.
In order to recruit the prisoner: first, defeat enemies. Then, claim the prison cell's [[door]], or just destroy the cell's walls. Select a colonist, right click on the prisoner, and click "Free Prisoner". You can see the pawn's bio and stats before accepting them. If you don't like the pawn, then you can leave with no penalty.

==Threatened Joiner==
A pawn is threatened by some sort of mutual enemy. As a pawn join event, it will be less common as you gain more people.

When accepting this quest:
*The specified pawn will immediately join your colony.
*A [[major threat]] will arrive at the colony within a few hours.
**This can be enemy [[raider]]s, a [[manhunter pack]], a [[mech cluster]]{{RoyaltyIcon}}, an world event [[condition causer]]{{RoyaltyIcon}}, or a forced condition (like [[rain]], [[heat wave]], or [[volcanic winter]]) for a few days{{RoyaltyIcon}}. This threat is usually specified.

==Trade Request==
A [[faction base]] is requesting a special offer. You have a certain amount of time to get to the faction base and deliver the items.

When accepting this quest:
*You will have to deliver the requested items. All items must be of normal [[quality]] or higher and cannot be tainted, but item {{HP}} does not matter.
**You can't send the items directly via [[transport pod]], but you can transport pod a pawn and the items to the location.
*A timer starts as soon as you accept this quest. The time limit does not compensate you if you accept the quest early; accepting the quest later is advantageous as it gives more time. 
Rewards are received as soon as items are delivered. Item rewards are inserted into the [[caravan]] that fulfilled the offer in the first place; make sure you can carry it back.

==Ore Lump==
A [[long-range mineral scanner]] has found a lump of ore. You have a certain amount of time to get the ore before others retrieve it. Note: this quest ''only'' appears when using the long-range mineral scanner.

When this quest appears:
*You have a certain timeframe (30 days) to reach the ore lump. You have 10 days to mine the ore before raids start arriving.
*Any specified threats will be present. An additional unknown threat may appear as you approach the ore lump.
The reward is that you get to mine the minerals you've scanned for. Many minerals are very heavy and need either [[pack animal]]s or [[transport pod]]s to bring back.

=Royalty=

==Royalty Intro Quests==
These quests appear only once, near the start of the game. These offer distinct interaction with the [[empire]] faction.

===Noble Wimp===
{{RoyaltyIcon}} A [[noble]], either a knight or praetor, is being chased by a small, manhunting animal. This quest generally appears after 8-11 days from colony start, but can appear later on or never generate. This quest won't appear if you have under 3 colonists, if you have disabled honor in your Reward Preferences, or if you are in an extreme biome. 

When accepting this quest:
* An empire noble, always with the [[Wimp]] trait, joins your colony as a quest lodger. A single [[manhunter]] animal - [[rat]], [[squirrel]], or [[raccoon]] at largest, will be following them.
* After 3 hours from accepting the quest, a [[shuttle]] will arrive to pick up the noble. The noble can be carried to the shuttle if they are [[downed]].

This quest always gives 8 [[honor]], enough to get a pawn to the [[Title#Tiles|Yeoman]] rank.

'''Notes:''' You can [[arrest]] the noble wimp, if so desired. The noble will have a ''massive'' amount of [[resistance]] due to their title (+75 for count), which makes it not worth it - unless you have a recruitment inspiration available.
* However, with the [[Ideology DLC]], they can be [[slave|enslaved]]{{IdeologyIcon}} with much less effort. Slavery removes the conceited work restrictions, and gives an innate [[mood]] buff that counters regular noble requirements. Meanwhile, being a wimp makes slave rebellions easy to quell. Slavery can be worth betraying the empire, if the noble has some very desirable [[psycast]]s, like [[berserk pulse]], [[farskip]], or [[neuroquake]].

=== The Deserter ===
{{Recode|section=1|reason=Weapon list via tag system or alternatively just make a small pawnkind table}}
{{RoyaltyIcon}} Somebody has deserted the [[empire]]. Accepting them will mean that you'll become enemies with the empire. This quest generally appears after 26-29 days of the colony start, but can appear later on or never generate. 

When accepting this quest:
*The deserter joins you as a colonist. This deserter will be of the [[Raider#Empire|"Trooper"]] pawn type. They will always be capable of violence, and have a Shooting skill between 4 - 10 (before [[xenotype]]{{BiotechIcon}}).
** They will be wearing a [[flak vest]], [[flak jacket]], and have one of the following weapons: [[Assault rifle]], [[Chain shotgun]], [[Heavy SMG]], [[LMG]], [[Hellcat rifle]].{{BiotechIcon}}
*{{--|200}} [[goodwill]] with the [[empire]]. (Goodwill has a cap of -100)
*You will have to fight the "loyalty squad" from the empire. Due to how early this quest appears, this is likely to be just 1 trooper.
*An empire outpost will be generated, with 2 [[psylink neuroformer]]s, along with other camp loot. This goes away after 60 days.
It does not matter what happens to the deserter pawn after you have accepted the quest. You will still have access to the neuroformer camp.

'''Notes:'''
*There is nothing stopping you from befriending the empire later, by giving them gifts and/or doing quests for goodwill.
*Can be worth betraying the empire in ''just'' for the gear the deserter brings, especially in [[scenario system#Naked Brutality|Naked Brutality]]. If you're lucky, then the loyalty squad will only be [[downed]], netting you a second pair of trooper gear.

==Desperate Refugees==
{{RoyaltyIcon}} Desperate refugees are looking to stay at your colony to rest and regroup.

When accepting this quest:
*Refugees join as quest lodgers, and will do work. These refugees will never be afiliated with any faction. The higher your current colonist population, the more refugees appear, but the less likely the quest is to generate.
**Refugees may offer to join the colony, especially if they are kept [[mood|happy]]. There is no penalty for not accepting this join offer.
**Refugees may betray you. They will become enemies, pick up any nearby weapons, and attack colonists as if they were raiders. They will never betray you on their own if you get a betrayal offer yourself.
**Refugees will never betray you if one of them is [[child]]{{BiotechIcon}} and the [[storyteller]] setting, [[AI Storytellers#Child enemies|Child enemies]] is turned off.
*If a refugee is arrested, experienced a harmful surgery, or killed for any reason, then the other refugees will either receive a {{--|12}} moodlet, leave your colony (failing the quest), or betray you immediately.
*If the refugees stay for the full period of time and they leave the map successfully, then there is a chance you will get a random, wealth-scaled reward in the future.

'''Notes:'''
*If you ''really'' want a refugee to join your colony, then it's best to [[arrest]] one of them immediately, to avoid the chance of betrayal and subsequent death. [[Draft]] all the other refugees as far away as possible, for when they go hostile.
*If you plan on capturing refugees, you can apply anesthetic to them. This allows you to capture every one of them for [[human resources|whatever purposes you'll want]].

=== Betrayal offer ===
A member of another faction has learned that the refugees are in your faction, and wants them dead.
*Gain a reward if you kill all members of the refugee group.
**If a refugee has joined the colony ''before'' the betrayal offer, then you don't need to kill them. If a refugee joins afterwards, or is [[arrest]]ed and then recruited, then the quest fails.

== Build Monument ==
{{RoyaltyIcon}} A noble, leader, or machine persona has requested you to create a specific mounument.

When accepting this quest:
*You will immediately receive a monument marker through drop pod.
*Once the monument marker is installed, you will have to build the monument around the specified timeframe. The marker can be moved if so desired.
*Once the monument is built, then you will usually have to protect any part of the monument from being destroyed in X days. Otherwise, one of the two things can happen, depending on the quest:
**Loss of [[goodwill]] with the faction, if any.
**Any [[Events#Major Threats|major threat]] other than a raid. These are specified by the quest when it is generated.
*Putting any constructions in a completed monument will start a 24 hour timer, after which the monument will be considered destroyed. The monument may be used as a stockpile without issue.
You will get the reward when the monument is finished in the required timeframe, no matter what happens to it afterwards.

'''Notes:'''
*If you want to preserve the monument, then watch out for [[fire]] burning up [[wood]]en structures. Shuttles from shuttle quests also start the monument destruction timer.
*You can take the quest solely for the major threat that appears. You can break the monument to unleash a pack of [[manhunter|manhunting]] [[grizzly bear]]s to disrupt an enemy [[siege]], or to call in a [[sun blocker]] with a fluid [[ideoligion]]{{IdeologyIcon}}, in order to take advantage of the [[Ideoligion#Combat in darkness|Combat in Darkness]] precept.

=== Title Inheritance ===
{{RoyaltyIcon}}
If a pawn with a [[noble]] title of yeoman and above dies, their designated heir will inherit their title. Their heir is randomly chosen, with extra weight given to the person's then-current spouse. If you want to change this title, you need to go to a [[comms console]] and request it.

This is exactly the same as the build monument quest, but the only reward is that the heir is changed. No threat rewards on failure, just goodwill loss.

== Ferried Bandit Camp ==
{{RoyaltyIcon}} An NPC noble wants you to take out a camp of bandits, and will ferry your soldiers there in a shuttle. Identical to a normal [[#Bandit camp|bandit camp]] barring the means of travel.

When accepting this quest:
*A [[shuttle]] will arrive in your colony, requesting a specific amount of soldiers (no more, no less). The location is generally much too far away (~150+ world tiles) to be able to support the team with additional troops normally. Travel time takes only an in-game hour or so in either direction.
*The soldiers will be fed en route, and are given a generous time limit (several days) to take out the bandit camp.
*The bandits will typically begin attacking your team of soldiers within a few minutes of landing, even if your soldiers have not attacked them or gotten near them yet.
As soon as the enemies are "fleeing" (>50% of enemies [[downed]] or [[death|killed]]), you will be rewarded at your colony. Plus, the camp itself can generate with some loot. The same shuttle can ferry them back. '''Nota bene:''' If [[Titles|honor]] is chosen as a reward, only a pawn that participated in the attack can be given it.

Besides your initial team, the provided shuttle does not allow you to bring back any additional pawns, such as a downed enemy you may wish to capture. One of a good solution is to have the pawns carry enough material to make [[Pod launcher]], [[Transport pod]] and have enough [[Chemfuel]] to fuel the pod as far enough as possible. If not, try and launch the pod with a few able colonist inside and bring them back to main base.

==Forced Weather==
{{RoyaltyIcon}} A noble of the empire, or a machine persona from space, is willing to cause a game condition on your colony for a few days.

When accepting this quest:
*A game condition will be forced on you for the listed duration. At low wealth, this will be a change of [[weather]]. At higher wealth, it can a [[cold snap]], [[heat wave]], or another [[condition causer]] effect, such as a [[psychic drone]] or [[EMI dynamo|EMI field]].
You will get the reward immediately upon accepting this quest.

'''Notes:'''
*Don't underestimate weather conditions. Forced rain will lower ranged accuracy and movement speed.
* Forced heat waves and cold snaps will stack with naturally-occurring ones.
* Forced fog will prevent the usual [[rain]] that appears when a [[fire]] gets too big. Wildfires can ravage the whole map, including your base.

==Hospitality==
{{RoyaltyIcon}} A group is asking for you to house their pawns for a certain amount of time.

When accepting this quest:
*A pawn or multiple pawns will arrive at your base through [[drop pod]] or [[shuttle]]. These can be [[animal]]s, [[prisoner]]s, or human visitors. You must keep them safe for the duration.
** If the pawn is a visitor, then you may have to keep their mood above a certain threshold. If average mood is too low for too long, then the quest fails. The quest may also specify ''they appreciate quality accommodation''; keeping average mood > 50% will increase [[goodwill]]. {{Check Tag|How much?}}
** If a pawn is a [[noble]], then you will need a bedroom suitable for their rank to accept the quest. You will ''also'' need another bedroom suitable for any of your own nobles.
** The pawns may come with [[blood rot]]. Blood rot must be treated every day in order to be prevented. If it progresses to 1.00, the pawn dies. A tend quality of 40% or more is required to stop progression. Tends below 40% slow the disease; tends above 40% will reverse the progression of the disease.
** The pawns may come with [[paralytic abasia]]. They will be unable to move.
* There may be a specified [[major threat]] that arrives with the quest. This threat can arrive at any time during the hospitality stay.
** If there is a major threat, you may come with soldiers under your control. They can die in battle without consequence and will have {{+|12}} ''On Duty'' moodlet. However, betraying them will lower goodwill as usual.

==Pawn Lending==
{{RoyaltyIcon}} A member of an outlander or empire faction is requesting a pawn from your colony.

*A [[shuttle]] will arrive to pick up specified amount of colonists. The amount requested is dependent on your current colonist count. The pawn must be age 13 or older. Slaves do not count.
*The shuttle will return in a specified amount of days. Colonists are usually safe, but if they had a pre-existing condition like the [[plague]], then they can die. They will be fed and tended to.
You will get the reward when requested colonists have left the colony.

==Rewarded Warfare==
{{RoyaltyIcon}} A faction is asking you to fight a mutual enemy.

When accepting this quest:
* A [[major threat]] will be triggered in your colony. This can be a [[manhunter pack]], [[mechanoid cluster]], or one or multiple [[raid]]s.
** If there are multiple raids in this quest, the listed raid will be the ''first'' raid. The other raids will have the same [[raid points]], but not the same composition.
* You may receive soldiers under your control. They can die in battle without consequence and will have {{+|12}} ''On Duty'' moodlet. However, betraying them will lower goodwill as usual. They will leave once the threat has been cleared.{{Check Tag|All enemies, or the final wave?|One time, the support NPCs left as soon as the third wave of a three-wave quest had been driven off, despite the fact that the second wave was still hanging out near the map edge, preparing to attack.}} Note: If the threat is not cleared after ~10 days, the loaned soldiers will leave on their own.
* Soldier names like [[Empire#Janissary|janissary]] or [[Empire#Cataphract|cataphract]] correspond to their specific pawnkinds. See [[Raiders#Humanlike|Raiders]] for details.
For manhunters and raiders, you'll get the reward once all quest enemies are defeated or left the map. You do not need to actually kill any manhunters, for instance. For mech clusters, the reward appears after the "Mech cluster buildings have been defeated" message appears.

==Shuttle Crash==
{{RoyaltyIcon}} A [[shuttle]] of the [[empire]] has crashed and needs to land in your colony, along with the commander, their soldiers, and possible civilians. Raiders of a mutual enemy will come and attack the shuttle group.

When accepting this quest:
* A crashed shuttle appears on the map. Landing site unaffected by [[ship landing beacon]]s. The commander and civilians need to be saved. Soldiers do not need to be saved. Every person comes with [[biocoded]] weapons. This shuttle can be deconstructed for {{icon small|plasteel}} 35, {{icon small|steel}} 20, and {{icon small|component}} 5, regardless of the outcome.
* Raiders will come in ~ 4 hours from the shuttle crashing. Raiders have the intent to kill the empire's pawns.
* The rescue shuttle will arrive within 8 hours of the shuttle crash. [[Downed]] people must be carried to the shuttle yourself.
* {{--|10}} goodwill with the empire if the shuttle commander is killed, or otherwise misses the shuttle.
** Another {{--|10}} goodwill if any amount of other occupants misses the shuttle.

'''Notes:'''
* The shuttle is worth a fair chunk of materials. This quest is often worth it for the shuttle alone.
* The empire's weapons are all [[biocoded]], with the possibility of the commander having a [[persona weapon]]. The armor isn't, but stripping will penalize goodwill, and [[death acidifier]]s prevent post-mortem retrieval.
* Against small raids, it is likely that the empire's fighters will be able to handle enemies on their own.

==Condition Causer==
{{Main|Condition causer}}
{{RoyaltyIcon}} A [[condition causer]] has been deployed within 10 tiles in order to harass your colony. As long as it stands, the condition will continue. This is a [[major threat]] and not a quest, but it appears in the quests tab.

When this quest appears:
* The condition causer will appear, until it is destroyed.

'''Notes'''
* If a mechanoid cluster is deployed, you don't actually have to wake the cluster up. Claim a door on the enclosed building, destroy the causer, and leave the map. Just avoid [[proximity activator]]s on the way.
* Some condition causers can be desirable.

==Noble Ceremony==
{{RoyaltyIcon}} Your [[noble]] has enough [[honor]] for a new title. In order to accept this title, you must have a [[throne room]] suitable of their title. The map must be clear of the empire's enemies.

When accepting this quest:
* A bestower and a squad of janissaries will arrive via [[shuttle]].
* If the bestower is [[downed]] via any means, then they'll drop 2 [[psylink neuroformer]]s. However, downing will lower [[goodwill]] with the empire faction regardless of who did it.
* Once the bestower has reached the throne room, select your noble pawn, right click the bestower, and the [[Titles#Bestowing_Ceremony|Bestowing Ceremony]] ritual will begin.
You will get the reward once the bestowing ceremony finishes, regardless of outcome.

The ceremony is considered a [[ritual]] and its outcome affects colonist mood. It can also grant extra honor based on ritual quality, regardless of outcome. Quality is determined by participant count and room impressiveness. You can get up to a maximum of 3 honor, at >90% quality.

== Ancient Complex ==
{{IdeologyIcon}} This quest reveals an abandoned ancient complex on the world map, ready to be explored and looted by your colonists. There is also a variant of the quest whereby a [[shuttle]] will be provided to take a specific number of colonists there. It takes off immediately once the correct number of colonists are inside, and usually lands at the edge of the map with the complex.

You can reform the caravan once all opened rooms have been cleared of enemies. If your colonists arrived by shuttle, you can send them back, but only when there are no threats within the map.

Ancient complexes are scaled to player wealth.{{Check Tag|Determined when?|Anecdotal evidence suggests that the point value is set when the location is first discovered and added to your quest list.}}

The ancient complex is often littered with derelict structures and desiccated corpses with no information on how long they have been dead for and no decaying health.

Some rooms are mostly empty, while others contain enemies:
* Room filled with [[insectoids]].
* Room filled with [[mechanoids]].
* Room containing [[ancient unstable fuel node]] that can explode.
* Room filled with derelict ancient caskets. These will always contain hostile [[ancients]] in suspended animation.
* Seemingly empty rooms that trigger an insectoid [[infestation]] incident upon entry.

The threats may be dormant, waking or exploding upon entry, when crates or other special objects in the room are tampered with, or when a fuel node explode in an adjacent room. They will not be triggered if the door of the room is opened but the cell of the door is not stepped on.
As always, insectoids, mechanoids, and ancients are enemies and will try to kill each other on sight.

You may run into [[Hermetic crate|Hermetic crates]] (contain any item, including [[techprint]]s{{RoyaltyIcon}}), [[Security crate|Security crates]] (contain equipment), [[Ancient enemy terminal|Ancient enemy terminals]] (call enemy faction) and [[Ancient comms console|Ancient comms consoles]] (call a drop beacon of loot from random places, with the chance of triggering a raid at the same time) in any of the rooms. All except the comms console have a [[Flammability]] of 0%{{Check Tag|Verify}}, making them immune to the fires often started by the explosive fuel nodes.

=== Analysis ===
[[File:Ancient complex sapping.png|thumb|Smashing the ancient complex wall to create a different route, after all routes has been blocked by mechanoids]]
It's usually possible to explore and loot the entire complex without fighting any enemy. Pay attention whenever a pawn is opening a door. If the new room contains a threat, immediately move them away to avoid triggering it and find another route around that room

If all routes to the unexplored rooms are blocked by threats, you can still smash the wall from outside to create a different route.

You can reduce the temperature of the fire caused by the fuel nodes by smashing walls to connect it to the outside.

You only need to fight the threat when it's an infestation, or it's in the same room with something you need to interact with

==Beggars==
{{IdeologyIcon}} Beggars have arrived in your colony, asking for goods. Beggars appear roughly once every 60 days.

When this quest appears:
* Some beggars will appear on your map. They are always unaffiliated with any faction.
* They will request a random material that you have, like [[silver]], [[herbal medicine]], or [[beer]]. They can request up to {{icon small|silver}} 700 [[silver]] worth of items. Right click the beggar with the question marks to give them the items. If you don't' give the items, they will leave after ~1 day.
* The beggars must leave the map healthy in order for the quest to complete. If a beggar is arrested or killed, you'll get the "Travelers Betrayed" notification. The group of beggars may then flee the map, become hostile, or remain in the colony with a negative mood modifier.
This quest gives no extrinsic reward, and betraying the beggars has no penalty. However, it interacts with the Charity [[precept]].

'''Notes:'''
* Beggars can be arrested, and have ''very'' low base resistance (4-8 with low population). If you find a beggar with desirable characteristics, don't be hesitant to capture one.
* After arresting one beggar, the rest will run and become unable to be arrested, but will fight back when attacked, unlike both [[prison break|prison breaks]] and fleeing raiders

==Work Site==
{{Main|Work site}}
{{IdeologyIcon}} A work site has appeared near your colony, potentially owned by another faction. You can raid it for resources. Note that this is a world map event and not a proper quest.

When this quest appears:
* An event space will appear near your colony. It will contain resources stated by the camp, further resources, and the enemies on the map.
* The site can be owned by a Neutral, Allied, Hostile, or 'minor' faction. Work Sites owned by minor factions can be attacked without diplomatic consequences.

The reward is the items on the map. Also counts as a raid for the Raiding [[precept]].

==Relic Hunt==
{{See also|Relic}}

{{IdeologyIcon}} This quest is a unique main quest, which requires you to do 5 sub-quests by hacking into terminals during said quests. You must first accept the main quests, and then sub-quests will appear over time. After completing enough sub-quests, the relic's location will appear, guarded by hostile mechanoids.

=== The Villagers ===
'' You've learned of an ancient terminal that contains information about the '''''<RELIC NAME>'''''. However, the terminal is surrounded by a tribal village, and the locals venerate it. They aren't part of any major faction.''

This sub-quest requires you to send your colonist to the [[tribe]]'s base. The tribe are initially neutral towards you, but any harm befalling them, attempting to hack the interface or staying for 10 hours or more will immediately render them hostile and attack your colonist.

Dispatch the faction and get a colonist to hack the terminal to conclude the mission. Be wary that tarrying too long in the base (2 hours) will cause a lot of tribal members from said faction to appear.

=== Cryptodrone Intel Hack ===
'' You've detected an orbiting spacedrone that may contain information about '''''<RELIC NAME>'''''. You have the code that will force it to land at '''''<COLONY NAME>'''''. To get the information, hack into the drone's computer. Hacking takes time, but those strong in intellectual skill can speed up the process. After landing, the spacedrone will self-destruct in 30 days. ''

Alternative quest title: '''Orbital Cryptodrone Hack'''

This sub-quest will force a [[spacedrone|cryptodrone space ship]] to land, usually far away from the main base. Send a colonist to try and hack the drone whilst setting up a defense perimeter. A selected hostile (usually permanently hostile) faction will arrive 10 hours after the crypto drone lands, and every 8 hours after that in an attempt to destroy the drone, with half of them aiming after any nearby colonist, whereas the other half attacks the drone.

Upon successfully hacking the cryptodrone, the quest concludes, but the drone will initiate a self-destruct sequence within 30 seconds after its hacked, after which it will explode.

Remarkably, it is possible to finish hacking the drone before the first raid arrives, if this is done while the drone has not self-destructed yet, they will spawn, but leave as soon as the drone self-destructs. In order to hack the drone in time, you need a pawn with 300% hacking speed, which is achievable by a level 20 intellectual pawn with the neurotic trait on a work frenzy. If the opposing faction's goodwill was raised to neutral before accepting the quest, then no raid will happen at all, despite the game's upcoming raid timer.

=== Ancient Complex ===
'' You've learned of an ancient complex nearby. It is said to contain information about '''''<RELIC NAME>'''''. '' - Self-travel description

'' '''''<PAWN NAME>''''', '''''<PAWN TYPE>''''' of '''''<FACTION NAME>''''', has discovered an ancient complex a long distance away. He/She believes it contains information about the relic known as '''''<RELIC NAME>'''''. '' - Shuttle-travel description

This sub-quest requires you to send your colonist to an abandoned ancient complex map. In terms of enemies and other challenges, it's similar to a regular [[Quests#Ancient_Complex|Ancient Complex]] quest. To conclude the sub-quest, hack all the [[ancient terminal]]s within the map.

The effects of starting or finishing a terminal hack can be quite unpredictable. Sometimes it triggers a fuel node explosion in a completely different room, and sometimes it doesn't even wake up the mechanoids sleeping right next to the terminal.

The terminals have a [[flammability]] of 0%, making them immune to the fires often started by [[Ancient unstable fuel node|unstable fuel node]] explosions.

=== Relic Retrieval ===
Once you have completed 5 subquests, the location will appear. It will be defended by [[mechanoid]]s, who will wake up in 3 days.

The relic will be inside a [[reliquary]]. It takes 5 seconds to get the relic, in which case any mechanoid defenders will be alarmed.

== Pilgrims ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Missing almost all detail on pilgrim mechanics, gifts, what they do, what pawns can show up, ideoligion effects etc.}}

{{IdeologyIcon}} Once a relic has been acquired, Pilgrims will come on occasion. They will stay for a few hours

They may offer gifts or join your colony, similar to the refugees quest

=Biotech=

== Ancient Transport ==
'' You have decrypted an ancient transponder, revealing the location of a mechanoid ship in orbit. The ship is badly damaged but you can signal it to land nearby. The ship contains the remains of a long-dead mechanitor. Mechanitor can create and control mechanoids for work and combat. By extracting the deceased mechanitor's mechlink, you can turn one of your colonist into a mechinator. Beware - the ship also contains hostile mechanoids. The mechanoid group is composed of: (Mechanoid list, usually 1 [[Tesseron]] or [[Militor]]) ''

{{BiotechIcon}} This quest appears after destroying an [[ancient exostrider midsection]], and using its [[ancient transponder]]. You can then choose to accept the quest at your leisure.

When accepting this quest:
* A [[spacedrone|cryptodrone space ship]] will land in your colony, along with a hostile [[mechanoid]] force. The mechs will prepare for a while, and then attack.
The reward is the [[mechanitor]] corpse that the ship drops. You can extract the [[mechlink]] from this corpse, allowing one of your colonists to become a mechanitor themselves.

Having "Disable exostrider remains" as part of the scenario will prevent this quest from appearing, due to the absence of the exostrider midsection. This is intended as part of The Mechanitor [[scenario]].

== Ancient Mechanitor Complex ==
'' You've learned of an ancient complex nearby that contains the remains of a long-dead mechanitor. Mechanitor can create, control and manipulate mechanoids for work and combat. If you can break into the complex and collect the mechanitor's corpse, you can extract their mechlink and turn one of your colonists into a mechanitor. Be warned - these kinds of structures contains a variety of threats, and your activity at the complex might draw unwanted attention. ''

{{BiotechIcon}} Similarly to [[#Ancient Complex|ancient complex]] quest, the mechanitor complex consists of similar items you normally found inside an ancient complex. The key difference is one of the desiccated corpses is a mechanitor with a mechlink currently in its corpses, which can be extracted for its mechlink.

This is the primary method of obtaining more than one [[mechanitor]] in a single playthrough.

== Bloodthirsty Parley ==
'' A sanguophage named '''''<PAWN NAME>''''' is looking for a safe place to meet with 3 other sanguophages where they won't be tracked. Their leader '''''<PAWN NAME>''''' is asking for you to host the meeting at '''''<COLONY NAME>'''''. If you accept, 4 sanguophages will arrive at '''''<COLONY NAME>''''' from different directions. They will spend several hours discussing their secret issues before departing. They promise to give you reward before they leave. You may betray the sanguophages and attack them. Downed sanguophages can be forced to turn one of your colonist into a sanguophage. ''

{{BiotechIcon}} [[Sanguophage]]s are looking to congregate at your colony. As a sanguophage quest, it will not appear until at least 1 year from colony start, and will have a 3 year cooldown between appearances.

When accepting this quest:
* Up to 4 sanguophages will arrive inside your colony, arriving in different directions where pathing isn't blocked (i.e. not mountain).
* They will reach a set location inside your base, and place a [[blood torch]]. After several hours they will leave. Sanguophages may choose to join your colony on their own volition.
* The sanguophages may be attacked by a [[raid]]. If any sanguophages are downed by the raiders, then the quest will fail.

The first reward will always be "Gene implantation"; the requested pawn can turn a colonist of your choice into a sanguophage. Be wary, they will not tarry for long and will leave 7 hours after meeting if you do not volunteer a colonist for it.

Sanguophages, unless you have picked the aforementioned gene option, will always start with the ''Genes Extracted'' hediff. If a sanguophage is downed, you can force them to give their genome, but this kills the original sanguophage in the process. If the gene implantation reward is picked, only the rewarder sanguophage will not have this status. In addition, any colonists that accepts a gene implantation will get ''Gene Extracted'' for ~1.2 years.

== Sanguophage Transport ==
'' You have intercepted a distress signal! A hostile shuttle carrying a sanguophage master and a number of thralls is having trouble with its engines. You can use the signals to draw it down to a crash near '''''<COLONY NAME>'''''. Once the ship has crashed, you can fight the sanguophage and his/her minions. If you can capture the master, you can force him/her to turn one of your colonist into a sanguophage. ''

{{BiotechIcon}} This quest will force a [[shuttle]] to crash on your colony, forcing a pawn with the [[sanguophage]] xenotype and a number of mortal thrall pawns to exit the [[crashed shuttle]]. As a sanguophage quest, it will not appear until at least 1 year from colony start, and will have a 3 year cooldown between appearances.

When accepting this quest:
* A shuttle crashes. After a while, the sanguophage will attack.
* During or after the attack, thrall reinforcements may appear via [[drop pod]]. They can land inside your base.
The reward is:
* The [[downed]] sanguophage (assuming that their brain isn't destroyed)
* The [[downed]] thralls
You can then decide what to do with the sanguophage:
* Force a downed sanguophage to give a [[Gene implanter|gene implantation]]. This allows you to turn one of your colonists into a sanguophage. You can also use them for other [[human resources]].
* If you imprison and then recruit the sanguophage, you can cast Implant genes with it.
'''Note:''' using this ability while the sanguophage's genes are still regrowing kills the sanguophage. Therefore, if you want to keep the sanguophage, it is worth waiting until the gene regrowth process finishes.

If [[Ideology]] is enabled, an [[Ideoligion]] with [[File:Cannibal.png|32px]] "Cannibal" as their main [[Ideoligion#Memes|meme]] will be created which will be set on all pawns that exits the shuttle.

== Wastepack Dumping ==
'' '''''<PAWN NAME>''''', '''''<PAWN TYPE>''''' of '''''<FACTION NAME>''''' has a special request. Someone has dumped an abundance of toxic wastepacks near one of his/her settlements and he/she is unable to safely store them. If you accept, '''''<PAWN NAME>''''' will deliver '''''<NUMBER>''''' toxic [[wastepack]] by transport pod. If not kept frozen, toxic wastepacks will dissolve over time, polluting nearby terrain. ''

{{BiotechIcon}} A faction is asking permission to dump toxic waste into your colony.

When accepting this quest:
* A set amount of [[toxic wastepack]]s are deployed near the edges of your colony.
The reward is given as soon as the wastepacks land. You can choose to store the wastepacks, send them somewhere else, or live with some [[pollution]] in your colony.

= Anomaly =
{{Anomaly|section=1}}
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Update with other Anomaly quests.}}

== Mysterious cargo ==
This quest can generate once at least 10 days have passed since game start, the Monolith is at at least level 1, and the storyteller can afford 200 [[raid points]]. Subsequent occurrences are subject to a 4-year cooldown.

A faction is asking permission to dump a dangerous item onto your map.

When accepting this quest, ''one'' of three items will be dropped:
* A [[unnatural corpse]],
* A [[revenant spine]], or
* A [[golden cube]].
The selection is random and all three are valid options with just a level 1 Monolith. This is the only way a cube or corpse can spawn without upgrading the Monolith to level 2. The reward is given as soon as the mysterious cargo lands.

If left uncontained, the spine will regenerate into a [[revenant]]. The spine can be carried to a [[holding platform]] to reform and resurrect the revenant in a containment cell.

When the golden cube lands, one (randomly chosen) pawn will develop a cube addiction.

== Distress signal ==
You've intercepted a distress signal from a nearby camp of a faction.

Upon reaching the camp, you will find it overrun with [[Fingerspike]], [[Toughspike]], and [[Trispike]]. Members of the calling faction are usually dead, but may be alive.{{Check Tag|Chance unknown.}}
The map will be covered in fleshmass, with fleshsacks and fleshbulbs as well. One of the fleshsacks will contain a [[shard]].

This quest can generate even if the Monolith has not been activated.

=Endgame=
{{Spoiler}}
{{Main|Endings}}
There are 4 distinct ways to see the credits screen:
*Finding or building a ship to [[#Ship to the Stars|take you to the stars]]
*[[#Royal Ascent|Joining the court]] of the High Stellarch of [[Empire|the Empire]] {{RoyaltyIcon}}
*[[#The Archonexus|Awakening the archonexus]] {{IdeologyIcon}}
*Activating the [[Void_monolith|Void Monolith]] and either accepting or destroying it {{AnomalyIcon}}

==Ship to the Stars==
{{Main|Endings#Ship to the Stars}}

The A.I Charlon Whitestone has contacted you. If you can reach the journey offer and activate the ship, you can escape this hellish planet. The Ship to the Stars quest is functionally the same as constructing your own [[ship]]. This journey offer just gives you a way to leave the planet, without having to [[research]] and gather resources for that ship.

This quest appears roughly 20 days from game start.

'''Requirements:'''
* Travel to the journey offer. The journey offer will try to spawn as far away from you as possible. This means that this quest is much easier with 30% [[World_generation#Create_world|map coverage]] than with 100% coverage. Even in a 30% world, it can take months or years to reach the event destination.
* Prepare defenses and activate the [[ship reactor]], which takes 15 days. During this time, you will be assaulted by countless [[raid]]s - anywhere from 15 to 25 in total. This is completely independent from, and in addition to, your [[storyteller]], who will send their own raids on their normal schedule. This means that you should expect a ''minimum'' of 1 raid per day, often multiple.

Each colonist or animal requires their own [[ship cryptosleep casket]] to leave the planet, which may be desired on a personal level. The journey offer ship has space for 18 colonists.

'''Failure conditions:'''
* Destruction of any vital ship part. If you have the ability to create ship parts, then you can potentially repair the ship. However, if the [[ship reactor]] is destroyed, then you will need to start the 15 day activation process again.
* Doing [[#The Archonexus|The Archonexus]] chain of quests. Accepting the first part of the archonexus quest will invalidate the journey offer ("the ship will fly away as you're settling the new colony")

For tips on traveling to the journey offer and defending Whitestone's ship, see [[Endings#Ship to the stars|Endings]].

After the ship reactor has activated, all you have to do is load your colonists and escape the planet.

== Royal Ascent ==
{{Main|Endings#Royal Ascent}}

{{RoyaltyIcon}} The High Stellarch of the [[empire]] is willing to perform a customary visit to any [[noble]] of the Count rank or higher. If all goes well, then your colonists can leave to space via [[shuttle]].

This quest will appear roughly 35 days from colony start.

'''Requirements:'''
*Have a colonist of [[Titles#Count/Countess|Count]] rank and not be hostile to the [[empire]] faction.
*Have a spare bedroom suitable for a stellarch at the time of acceptance (see [[Titles#Table of Requirements]]). Your count must also have a suitable bedroom.
*House the High Stellarch for 12 days, a controllable guest. You can't just use a [[cryptosleep casket]] to preserve the stellarch until the end.
*Like the ship launch, you will be assaulted by a massive quantity of raiders during the 12 days.
*The High Stellarch must be kept above 25% average mood for the duration of his stay.

You will also receive 4 cataphract-level soldiers ([[Raiders#Empire|Stellic Wardens or Defenders]]). These soldiers can die without consequence. Like any other soldier guest, they will have the {{+|12}} ''On Duty'' [[mood]]let. However, some of them will be conceited nobles. This includes the ability to use [[psycast]]s.

'''Failure conditions:'''
*High Stellarch dies.
*High Stellarch mood is too low for too long.
*The [[empire]] faction becomes hostile to you.
Your count/countess does ''not'' have to stay alive in order succeed the quest.

The Royal Ascent quest will be offered again periodically if it is failed. It takes roughly 22 days from failure to get this quest again. This quest technically fails if you abandon the colony it asks for, but it will refire again.

If you've completed this quest, then a [[shuttle]] will come pick up the stellarch and your colonists into the imperial ranks. Note that while the shuttle UI has a limit of 1000kg, you can fit as many colonists as you want by selecting the colonist and right clicking "Get into shuttle".

==The Archonexus==
{{Main|Endings#The Archonexus}}

{{IdeologyIcon}} The [[archonexus core]] is waiting to be found. Gather 3 map fragments - each fragment given in exchange for your entire colony - and you can go activate it.

This quest first appears once you reach $150,000 colony [[wealth]].

'''Part 1''':

'' A group of wild people/'''''<FACTION NAME>''''' are/is looking to expand their territory, and are interested in taking over '''''<COLONY NAME>''''' with all its wealth. If you can increase your total wealth to $350000, they will take the settlement. In trade, they offer you part of a map showing the location of an ancient archotech nexus. '' - Part 1 Description

In order to accept this quest, you must have a colony [[wealth]] of $350,000 (in a single colony). If there is a valid alliable faction on the map, you must be allied with one in order to proceed.

When accepting this part of the quest:
*All progress will be reset. Research will be reset to industrial levels. Any colonies you had will be procured by the faction in question.
*You will start a new colony, anywhere on the map.
** You can bring 5 colonists, 5 [[animal]]s, 1 [[relic]], and 7 stacks of items. You can bring different amounts of different items; the list can be seen at [[Endings#List of items|List of items]]. In addition, you will start with supplies from your [[scenario]]. Food, equipment, but not building materials from scenario are given.
*Whitestone's ship for the [[#Ship to the Stars|Ship to the Stars]] quest will fly away, failing the actual quest. You can still build your own [[ship]], if so desired.

No time passes during the travel to the new location. Pregnant animals will have the same stage of pregnancy on arrival. Growing season at the destination might affect the player's timing for accepting the quest.

Once your colonists have landed in their new colony, the [[major archotech structure]] be present in the center of the map. It must be studied in order to continue.

'''Part 2''':

'' The map to the archonexus has three parts, and you hold one of them. '''''<FACTION A NAME>''''' and '''''<FACTION B NAME>''''' also each hold parts of the map. They'll trade their parts to you for a wealthy new colony and all of its recorded research. The next map part is encoded in a very strange way. In order to interpret it, you must first learn more about archotechnology by studying the structure here. '' - Part 2 Description

Like with the first part of this quest, you must have another colony at $350,000 wealth, be allied with a specific faction (if present). You must also study the major archotech structure.

When accepting this part of the quest:
*All progress will be reset. Research will be reset to industrial levels. Any colonies you had will be procured by the faction in question.
*You will start a new colony, anywhere on the map. Same items as last time.

On the third colony (2nd restart), you will have a [[grand archotech structure]] instead of a major archotech structure. This is functionally the same building, but you'll need to spend more time studying it.

'''Part 3''':

'' You have two parts of the archonexus map. '''''<FACTION B NAME>''''' have the last piece of the map, passed down from the time their ancestors survived the cataclysm. They'll give it to you if you give them a wealthy new colony in exchange. As before, the map part is encoded. In order to decode it, you must first study the archotech structure. '' - Part 3 Description

Like with the other parts of this quest, you must have another colony at $350,000 wealth, be allied with a specific faction (if present). You must also study the grand archotech structure.

'''Unlike the other parts of this quest, you don't need to restart the colony for a 3rd time. In order to activate the archonexus core, you will need a ''total'' of 3 colonies at $350,000 wealth and need to reset 2 times.'''

When accepting this part of the quest:
*Progress will ''not'' be reset. You must travel to the archonexus core, as indicated on the world map.
*Once you have reached the [[archonexus core]], all you have to do is activate it. There will be hostile [[mechanoid]]s, but these can be ignored.

Once activating the core, the game will end, permanently. You are unable to continue with colonists left behind, unlike the other endings. (However you can reload a previous save, if desired).

==Anomaly Monolith==
{{Main|Endings#The_Void}}
{{AnomalyIcon}} You've activated the monolith. It is a conduit for psychic energy, just barely cracked open now.

'''Entity Codex''':
{{Main|Anomaly_(DLC)#Entities}}
The quest starts upon activation of the monolith, the study of which is progressed by observing the different entities. Once a certain number of entities have been discovered, the monolith may be upgraded.

'''Activated Monolith/Void Onslaught.''':

When the monolith fully activates, the map will settle into eternal darkness and hordes of [[Entities]] will come to attack your colony.

'''Ending''':

A node will form above the monolith, and a colonist may be sent in to either disrupt the link or embrace the void.
{{Main|Endings#Embrace_the_void}} {{Main|Endings#Disrupt_the_link}}
*If the colonist accepts the void, They will gain the Void Touched and Inhumanization hediffs, as well as the abilities of Void Terror and Death Refusal.
*If the colonist disrupts the link, all (Non-permanently hostile) factions will gain 50 goodwill and void related incidents will return to pre-monolith levels
*Both endings will cause the monolith to crumble, and kill all entities on the map.

A '''space drone''' is an ancient spacedrone ship added by the [[Ideology DLC]] and utilized by [[Biotech DLC]]. It acts as an existence for quest related to finding the relic, and for mechanitor quest. Unlike [[Shuttle]], it has no further use and cannot be used as a transport despite it being a ship.

== Acquisition ==
Spacedrone will only land after a while once its specific quest has been initiated.

== Summary ==
(For Ideology quest)
45000 hacking defence. When self destruct explodes with bomb type in 6 tile radius for 50 damage after {{Ticks|1800}} wick time, sends messages at 30, 20, 10 seconds. Self-destruction provides the deconstruct yield.

(For Biotech)
Appears as deconstructable upon landing. Has no other use aside from its own quest.

== Analysis ==
?

== Version history ==
* [[Ideology DLC]] Release - Added.

A '''Musical instrument''' may refer to one of several [[recreation]]al [[building]] types that provide the "Music" recreation type:
*[[Harp]]
*[[Harpsichord]]
*[[Piano]]
Each instrument requires its own [[research]] of the same name in order to be built.

A pawn must have a [[Hearing]] capacity above {{Bad|0%}} to get thoughts from listening to instruments, and a [[Manipulation]] capacity above {{Bad|0%}} to play any of them.
Nobles can put on concerts with the instruments, similar to a [[Events#Party|party]], giving a [[mood]] bonus to the noble and attendees.

The harp cannot be played if the pawn has a [[manipulation]] capacity of 0%.

== Analysis ==
Since the harp provides its own recreation type (Musical) and costs only 150 wood and 500 research points to build, it is a good way to increase recreation in a colony. In addition, it is only 1 tile in size, so it fits neatly into an already established rec room.

__NOTOC__
{{Split|destination=Thoughts|reason=Split this back into Mood and [[Thoughts]]. Page is unworkably large, and needs a TOC which it can't have without being massive.}}

{{Imagemargin|[[File:mood_preview.png|right]]|30px}}
Mood is a game mechanic that describes a colonists feelings based on thier environment and experiences, represented by a blue bar in the [[Needs|Needs tab]] tab ranging from 0 to 100%. Low moods cause [[mental break|mental breaks]], while high moods may trigger [[Mental inspiration|inspirations]]. Mood is affected by game difficulty, a colonists [[traits]] and environment, and whether or not the pawn is assigned to work they have [[skills|Passion]] for.

Prisoners with high mood are easier to recruit and less likely to break out or go berserk, colonists with a low enough mood for a long enough time may leave your colony.

== Mechanics ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=How often does mood tick - it can increase at 12/hour but is it once per hour, or does it increase at +2/10mins etc}}
[[File:Colonist needs beauty.png|frame|right|The Needs tab.]]Colonists have a "Mood (%)" and a "Mood Target", shown in the [[Needs|Needs tab]]. A "Mood Target", shown as a white triangle below the mood bar, is a representation of all the positive and negative [[thoughts]] held by a colonist and changes instantly depending on the colonists exact situation, while "Mood" is a blue bar that represents a colonist's mood in that exact moment. Pawns have a base mood of 32 and the baseline is affected by the [[AI Storytellers#Colonist mood|Colonist Mood]] AI storyteller setting - note that the default difficulty options also change this setting.

The Mood bar moves towards the Mood Target indicator at a maximum rate of {{+|12}} per [[time|in-game hour]] when mood is increasing or {{--|8}} per in-game hour when decreasing. For example, when a Hungry colonist (-6 mood) eats a meal, you'll see the mood target immediately jump to the right as the Hungry effect disappears, but the mood bar takes some time to inch its way toward the triangle. When a colonist is sleeping or otherwise unconscious, the mood bar stays in place, and any risk of a mental break is paused.

Three dividing lines on the mood bar, called the [[Mental Break Threshold]], represent mental danger zones- if the mood bar falls below these markers, there is a risk of a colonist having a [[Mental break]], where you will lose control over them and they will wander around and act against their and the colony's best interests. For a normal colonist, these lines are placed at 5% for an extreme break risk, 20% for a major break risk, and 35% for a minor break risk, although these thresholds can be changed by a colonist's [[traits]].

== Difficulty ==
Mood as a percentage is calculated by adding the overall difference between positive and negative thoughts to the "Base mood", a stat which is defined by your difficulty. For example, a pawn with ''Low expectations ({{+|18}})'' and ''Hungry ({{--|6}})'' on ''Peaceful'' difficulty will have a mood target of 54%.
<div><li style="display: inline-table;">

The difficulty can be changed at any time during gameplay.

== Mood management ==
There are various ways of increasing mood, which generally fall into two self-explanatory categories: Remove the bad things and add more good things. There are a lot of mood-influencing [[Thoughts]].

Managing mood shows similarities to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs:

=== Basic needs ===
Keeping colonists fed, sheltered, well-rested, clothed, and as far from death as possible is the most important aspect of your colony. Nutrient paste is disgusting but the penalty for a hungry colonist is much greater, otherwise make sure your colony is more than a sleeping spot on an open field- walls and roofs are your friend. Be sure to pay close attention to the traits of your colonists, some hate being outdoors and would rather be kept in a small room, some demand the freedom of nudity, and some are just miserable people. Otherwise your own choices as a player can have a significant impact- making your colonists commit cannibalism, steal people's organs, or forcing everyone to wear cowboy hats made of human skin usually outweigh giving them an extra hour of rest every day.

=== Safety needs ===
Sickness and pain are going to be some of the greatest influences to the mood of your colony. Some colonist suffer from pre-existing scars or injuries which naturally lower their mood and you will have to overcompensate for these using other means. Providing clean, spacious, and well decorated bedrooms for each individual colonist, as well as a comfortable place to eat and spend time when not working or sleeping, are generally some of the best ways to provide positive mood. The difference between the best and worst of environments can be as much as 60 mood points.

=== Social needs ===
Having a lover or a pet, allowing colonists to socialize, and allotting time for recreational actives (time alone, entertainment, drugs) are all great sources of consistent positive mood. Beware that the death of a loved one, negative social interaction, and unfulfilled drug addictions can all result in negative mood. Providing beautiful work spaces with clean floors and [[quality]] furniture also passively increase mood. Consider spreading recreation time over the day to keep colonists' recreation need topped up at all times.

=== Passion ===
Assigning colonists to work they are passionate for cause them to learn that specific skill faster and gain a significant boost to mood.

Investing in a large, comfortable and impressive combined recreation and dining room pays off dividends. For a relatively low investment, the entire colony can get a substantial mood boost from simply eating a fine meal at a [[table]] and playing some horseshoes. An impressive bedroom only benefits one or two people, but the mood effects are permanent.

[[Lavish meal]]s, [[drugs]] or [[Psychic soothe pulser|artifacts]] can greatly increase mood in the short term, which helps keeping things running during stressful times. They are generally a challenge to keep up in the long-term.

=== Extreme measures ===
Sometimes, an unlucky pawn has enough combined negative modifiers (scar pain, drug withdrawal, deaths of family members, psychic drone) that they'll still be in the extreme break risk zone even if given the very best. If you don't want to deal with constant mental breaks, you have a few options.

To have a mental break, a pawn must be awake and able to move. This yields these strategies to prevent a mental break by inhibiting movement:
* Assigning the pawn to go to sleep (works for some hours until the rest bar fills up)
* Knocking out the pawn through Anesthesizing, [[neural heat dump]]{{RoyaltyIcon}}, [[Xenogerm]]s{{BiotechIcon}} or afflicting extreme blood loss with either [[Bloodfeeder]]{{BiotechIcon}} or [[hemogen]]{{BiotechIcon}} extraction.
* Putting the pawn in a [[cryptosleep casket]] (useful for events that inflict mood penalties, such as psychic drones, and various [[Events/Anomaly|Anomaly Events]])
* The famous/infamous "cut their legs off" approach (install peg legs, then remove them).

The [[Joywire]] implant gives +30 mood—at the significant cost of -20% consciousness, and it cannot be removed. Thus, it should be used as a permanent solution to permanent problems.

== Room stats ==
These thoughts occur when a colonist personally uses a room (and not just passes through it). [[Mods]] can create additional moods that are triggered by other room types, but in vanilla the only rooms are:
* Bedroom/Barracks
* Rec(reation) room
* Dining room
* Prison cell
* Hospital
* Throne room{{RoyaltyIcon}} ([[Royalty (DLC)|Royalty DLC]] only)
Note that most of these can be combined with others, although bedroom/barracks are mutually exclusive.

Also, a general "[[space]]" thought can be triggered where a colonist spends much of their time, based on the size of that room.

==== Intensities ====
Each of these thoughts have a range of intensities, listed here from worst to best. This is dependent on the room's [[Impressiveness]] stat. Most rooms don't have the full range listed.
# Awful
# Dull
# Mediocre
# Decent
# Slightly impressive
# Somewhat Impressive (/ Impressive*)
# Very impressive
# Extremely impressive
# Unbelievably impressive
# Wondrously impressive

:: ''(* As listed in Mood effects for "bedrooms", "cells" and "barracks", below, this is simply "Impressive".)''

These thoughts are given by (only) these rooms. If a room fills more than one definition, it can give multiple thoughts:
* '''Bedrooms''': When a colonist is designated to sleep alone (or with a lover*) in a room.
** Full range except Dull and Mediocre.
** Somewhat Impressive is listed as simply "Impressive"
* '''Barracks''': When multiple* colonists are designated to sleep in the same room.
** Full range.
** Somewhat Impressive is listed as simply "Impressive"
** As a rule of thumb, a poor quality barracks gives a -5 to mood vs. the equivalent private bedroom, higher quality barracks give -4.
* '''Dining room''': When a colonist eats in a room. This can simply be any room with a table and chair.
** Starts from Decent.
* '''Rec room''': When a colonist uses Recreation facilities in a room.
**Starts from Decent.
* '''Prison cell''': When a colonist sleeps alone in a room with a bed/spot designated as a prison bed.
** Full range except Dull and Mediocre.
** Somewhat Impressive is listed as simply "Impressive"
* '''Prison barracks''': When multiple colonists sleeps together in a room with beds/spots designated as prison beds.
** Full range except Mediocre and Decent.
** Somewhat Impressive is listed as simply "Impressive"
* '''Hospital''': When a colonist stays at a hospital due to injury, illness or surgery.
** Full range except Mediocre and Decent.

:: ''(* A pair of colonists who are [[Social#Lovers|lovers]] and sleep in the same bed do not count against each other when defining a barracks.)''

== Thought details ==
==== Justified execution ====
This thought occurs in every colonist when a "guilty" [[prisoner]] is killed by a colonist. A prisoner is guilty for 24 hours after attacking the colony, killing/downing a colonist or attempting escape.

==== Someone was organ-harvested ====
This thought occurs in every colonist when an organ is harvested from a prisoner or guest. This does not occur when the organ is harvested by the installation of a replacement, such as a [[bionic heart]], nor does it happen when removing an artificial body part.

==== Justified execution of colonist ====
This thought occurs in every colonist when a "guilty" colonist that is held prisoner is subsequently killed by another colonist. A prisoner is guilty for 24 hours after attacking the colony, killing/downing a colonist or attempting escape.

==== Colonist organ-harvested ====
This thought occurs in every colonist when an organ is harvested from a colonist. This does not occur when the organ is harvested by the installation of a replacement, such as a [[bionic heart]], nor does it happen when removing an artificial body part.

==== A prisoner was sold ====
This thought occurs in every colonist when a prisoner is sold into slavery.

==== Ate fine meal ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid eats a [[Meals|fine meal]].

==== Ate lavish meal ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid eats a [[Meals|lavish meal]].

==== Ate nutrient paste ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid eats [[Meals|nutrient paste]].

==== Ate without table ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid eats without a table.

It occurs frequently even if you have tables, for many times colonists aren't bothered to go long distances to a table to eat and will simply eat off the floor instead. This can be avoided by watching pawns who are far from base, and when they pull out food and start to eat, draft and immediately undraft them, then have them haul the dropped food back to storage.

==== Ate raw food ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid eats [[raw food]].

==== [[Beauty]] ====
These thoughts occur when a human's environment opinion rises above or falls below certain values.

* Hideous environment: When their opinion dips below 15.
* Very ugly environment: When their opinion dips below 30.
* Ugly environment: When their opinion dips below 42.
* Pleasant environment: When their opinion rises above 58.
* Very pleasant environment: when their opinion rises above 70.
* Gorgeous environment: When their opinion rises above 85.

==== Bionics ====
These thoughts occur when a pawn with specific traits has bionic body parts installed on them.

For Body modder pawns:
* Body modder frustrated: no parts.
* Body modder pleased: 1 part.
* Body modder quite pleased: 2 parts.
* Body modder delighted: 3 parts.
* Body modder enchanted: 4 parts.
* Body modder overjoyed: 5 parts.
* Machine body is complete: 6 or more parts.

For Body purist pawns:
* Body purist squeamish: 1 part.
* Body purist disgusted: 2 parts.
* Body purist violated: 3 parts.
* Body purist horrified: 4 parts.
* Body purist nightmare: 5 parts.
* I have become what I hate: 6 or more parts.

==== Cabin fever (outdated information) ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid has spent a great amount of time inside. It has 2 stages:
* Mild: more than 140000 ticks (7 game days) inside.
* Serious: more than 280000 ticks (14 game days) inside.

The humanoid does not take on this thought when incapacitated (whether indoors or not) or imprisoned, but the timer for ticks inside is still active.

==== Cannibalism ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid eats [[Raw food|human meat]] in various forms.
* Raw cannibalism: When the humanoid eats raw human meat, butchered or not. This happens concurrently with the 'Ate raw food' debuff.
* Cooked cannibalism: When the humanoid eats human meat cooked into meals.

==== Catharsis ====
This thought occurs after a colonist has a [[Mood#Mental_breakdown|mental break]] due to poor [[mood]].

For this thought to occur the mental break must be allowed to run its course. Interrupting the break, by downing or arresting the affected colonist, will cause this thought to not occur. Berserk breaks are an exception, being able to grant the Catharsis buff even if interrupted.

==== Cold ====
This thought occurs when the outside temperature drops below a pawn's [[minimum comfortable temperature]]. There are 3 variations depending on how low the temperature is relative to this value
* Cold: {{Temperature|1|10|delta}} below comfort.
* Very cold: {{Temperature|11|20|delta}} below comfort.
* Shivering: {{Temperature|21||delta}} or lower below comfort.

==== My <relation> <name> died ====
This thought occurs when a colonist's family member dies. The death need not happen in the player's colony to cause this mood. Severity is dependent on the closeness of the relation - with children and spouses being highest, and relations outside of their immediate family being lower.

==== Colonist banished ====
This thought occurs when a colonist is banished from the colony or a caravan.

==== Colonist left to die ====
This thought occurs when a colonist is abandoned from a caravan in conditions where he will most likely not survive. It usually occurs if the outside temperature is outside of the colonist's comfortable range, or the colonist is downed.

If this colonist is a relative, friend or rival of another colonist, they will gain the thought relating to their deaths (eg "My son died" if a son is abandoned) on top of this thought.

==== Colonist left unburied ====
This thought occurs when a colonist corpse is in the open for more than 80000 ticks (4 game days).

==== Comfort ====
This thought occurs when a colonist's [[comfort]] rises above or falls below a certain value. It has various stages:
* Uncomfortable: When comfort falls below 10%.
* Comfortable: When comfort reaches 60% and above.
* Very comfortable: When comfort reaches 70% and above.
* Extremely comfortable: When comfort reaches 80% and above.
* Luxuriantly comfortable: When comfort reaches 90% and above.

==== Tainted apparel ====
This though occurs when a pawn is wearing apparel stripped from a corpse. Mood effect ranges from -3 to -8 based on how many pieces the pawn's wearing. 
Bloodlust pawns don't gain the debuff.

==== Defeated hostile leader ====
This occurs when the colony kills an enemy faction leader.

==== Disturbed sleep ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid or animal walks within seven squares (without walls in between) of a sleeping humanoid, or the humanoid is called to do work while sleeping.

==== Exhaustion ====
These thoughts occur when a humanoid's rest level dips below certain values. See [[Rest]].

* Drowsy: When rest level dips below 28%.
* Tired: When rest level dips below 14%.
* Exhausted: When rest level dips below 1%. Afterwards the pawn may collapse and start sleeping on the ground.

==== Forced to take drugs ====
This thought occurs when you administer non-medical drugs to a [[teetotaler]] using a medical operation.

Medical drugs such as [[penoxycyline]] do not trigger this thought.

==== Hot ====
This thought occurs when the outside temperature is higher than the pawn's [[maximum comfortable temperature]]. There are 4 variations depending on high the temperature is relative to this value.
* Hot: {{Temperature|1|10|delta}} above comfortable temperature.
* Very hot: {{Temperature|11|20|delta}} above comfortable temperature.
* Extremely hot: {{Temperature|21|30|delta}} above comfortable temperature.
* Burning up: {{Temperature|31||delta}} or higher above comfortable temperature.

==== Human leather apparel ====
This though occurs when a pawn is wearing apparel made using human leather. Mood effect ranges from -3 to -8 based on how many pieces the pawn's wearing. 
Bloodlust or Cannibal pawns instead gain a mood buff from +3 to +8.

==== Hungover (pounding) ====
This thought is the first of three hangover stages that occurs after a humanoid has become drunk. It has a mood effect of -10. Consciousness is reduced by 18% and is accompanied by mild vomiting.

==== Hungover (strong) ====
This thought is the second hangover stage that occurs after a humanoid has become drunk. It has a mood effect of -5. Consciousness is reduced by 8%.

==== Hungover (slight) ====
This thought is the third and final hangover stage that occurs after a humanoid has become drunk. It has a mood effect of -2. Consciousness is reduced by 3%.

==== Hunger ====
These thoughts occurs when a humanoid is hungry and needs food. There are several severity levels depending on how long the pawn hasn't had access to food. See [[Saturation]].
* Hungry: When saturation level dips below 0.3.
* Urgently hungry: When saturation level dips below 0.2.
* Starving: When saturation level reaches 0 and [[malnutrition]] kicks in, which will eventually kill the colonist.
** Trivial: 0 - 19% severity of malnutrition.
** Minor: 20 - 39% severity of malnutrition.
** Moderate: 40 - 59% severity of malnutrition.
** Severe: 60 - 79% severity of malnutrition.
** Extreme: 80 - 100% severity of malnutrition. After this, the unfortunate pawn dies.

==== I Butchered humanlike ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid processes a humanlike corpse at a butcher table.

==== Imprisoned ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid is kept as a [[Prisoner]].

==== Insulted ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid is insulted by another humanoid.

==== In darkness ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid has spent more than 4000 ticks (1/5 of a game day) away from any light source.

The humanoid does not take on this thought when sleeping (whether in darkness or not), but the timer for ticks away from a light source is still active while sleeping.

==== Inebriated (warm) ====
This thought occurs after a humanoid consumes [[beer]] and their alcohol level reaches 10%. Pain level is reduced by 10%, while manipulation is reduced by 2%.

==== Inebriated (tipsy) ====
This thought occurs after a humanoid consumes [[beer]] and their alcohol level reaches 25%. Pain level is reduced by 20%, while consciousness is reduced by 10%.

==== Inebriated (drunk) ====
This thought occurs after a humanoid consumes [[beer]] and their alcohol level reaches 40%. Pain level is reduced by 50%, while consciousness is reduced by 35%, accompanied by mild vomiting. At this level it triggers a tale that may show up in an art description; and the humanoid will soon start having a hangover.

==== Inebriated (hammered) ====
This thought occurs after a humanoid consumes [[beer]] and their alcohol level reaches 70%. Pain level is reduced by 70%, while consciousness is reduced by 60%, accompanied by vomiting. Consuming more beer at this stage may trigger a blackout.

==== Joywire ====
A pawn with a [[joywire|joywire implant]] has a permanent +30 mood buff. However, the implant also permanently reduces consciousness.

==== Expectation moodlets ====
These thoughts occurs when total colony wealth is below certain thresholds. It has 6 stages at different wealth values, and also affects recreation tolerance loss (higher wealth colonies need more recreation variety).

Additionally, [[Titles#Conceited vs Non Conceited|conceited nobles]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} have Noble and Royal Expectations at the ranks of Baron and Count respectively. These expectations replace the normal expectations moodlet. Note that despite only being seen in-game with the [[Royalty DLC]] activated, these additional moodlets are defined in the Core game.

Finally, [[Ideoligion#Roles|Ideoligious Roles]] can increase the expectations of the pawn by two levels, so a pawn that would normally have Low Expectations would then have High Expectations. To prevent these "going off the scale", at High and Sky-High, Elite and Supreme are used instead. Note that despite only being seen in-game with the [[Ideology DLC]] activated, these additional moodlets are defined in the Core game.

|}

Slaves do not have the default expectations of colonists, instead they have unique expectations with a generally higher mood boost. These expectations replace colonist expectations based on what the pawn's expectations would be if they were a colonist based on colony wealth and noble status.

|}

==== My organ harvested ====
This thought occurs when a pawn has an organ harvested. This stacks for every organ taken.

==== Naked ====
This thought occurs when a non-nudist humanoid is not wearing any [[clothing]].

==== New colony hope ====
Occurs once "New colony optimism" expires. This thought is the second stage of the start-of-game "boost" to help the newly landed colonists keep their mood up while they set up beds, furniture, decorations, and other structures.

==== New colony optimism ====
A starting "boost", this thought occurs at the start of the game to help the newly landed colonists keep their mood up while they set up beds, furniture, decorations, and other structures.

==== Observed corpse====
This thought occurs when a corpse is visible to a colonist - not buried or incinerated. 
Corpses can be seen within a radius of 4 tiles, but not if they are being carried by someone else. 
If a pawn goes to the corpse with the intent to bury it and notices it first because of this, they will not have this thought, nor while carrying the corpse to its final resting place. 
Blind pawns (Sight 0%) can't see corpses and won't get this moodlet.

==== Pain ====
These thoughts occur when a humanoid is under [[pain]]. It has 4 stages depending on pain severity.
* Pain (little): When pain is between 1 - 14%.
* Pain (moderate): When pain reaches 15%.
* Pain (acute)： When pain reaches 40%.
* Pain (shock)：When pain reaches 80%. Colonists in this state are incapacitated.

==== Passion (work)====
These thoughts occur when a pawn is doing work they have a passion for (see the bio).
* Minor passion: When a pawn does work they have a passion level of interested for.
* Burning passion: When a pawn does work they have a passion level of burning for.

These work passions, especially burning, can help a colonist who does that work full time become much more likely to gain inspirations and much less likely to have mental breaks due to a much better mood most of the time. Combined with the exp boost to skills a pawn is passionate about, it makes passion in a desired field invaluable - a colonist with a moderate skill level but a burning passion is in many cases superior to a mid-high skill pawn due to the ability to become incredibly skilled in a comparatively short period of time.

As dumb labor like hauling and cleaning are not tied to a skill, no one will ever gain happiness from them. Even thousands of years in the future, we still all have boring chores to do.

==== Psychic effects ====

Psychic drones occur during the [[Events#Psychic ship|psychic ship]] or [[Events#Psychic drone|psychic drone]] events.
*Low: Psychic drone event, or 0 - 2.5 days after the crash.
*Medium: Psychic drone event, or 2.5 - 5 days after the crash.
*High: Psychic drone event, or 5 - 7.5 days after the crash.
*Extreme: 7.5 days or later after the crash.

Psychic soothes occur during the [[Events#Psychic soothe|psychic soothe event]].

==== Recreation ====
{{Main|Recreation}}
These thoughts occur when the recreation meter of a humanoid rises or falls below certain values.

* Recreation-starved: When the recreation meter is at 0%.
* Recreation-deprived: When the recreation meter is between 1% and 14%.
* Recreation unfulfilled: When the recreation meter is between 15% and 29%.
* Recreation satisfied: When the recreation meter is between 70% and 84%.
* Recreation fully satisfied: When the recreation meter is at least 85%.

==== Sick ====
This thought occurs when a colonist has an [[illness]].

==== Sleeping conditions ====
These thoughts occur when a humanoid sleeps in various unfavorable conditions.
* Slept outside: When a humanoid sleeps in an outdoor space, or an incomplete room.
** This thought does not occur in unroofed rooms.
* Slept on ground: When a humanoid uses a sleeping spot or sleeps on the ground.
* Slept in cold: When a humanoid sleeps when the temperature falls below {{Temperature|{{Q|Human|Min Comfortable Temperature}} }}. (clothing doesn't change value)
* Slept in heat: When a humanoid sleeps when the temperature raises above {{Temperature|{{Q|Human|Max Comfortable Temperature}} }}. (clothing doesn't change value)

==== Someone's organ harvested ====
This thought occurs in every colonist, [[Thoughts list#My organ harvested|except for the patient]] and the one performing the operation, when an organ is harvested from a prisoner, guest, or colonist.

==== Strange feeling ====
This thought occurs when a [[psychic soothe pulser]] is used.

==== Spacious interior ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid has 41 or more tiles accessible within radius 7 in the current room (objects that can be walked over do not affect this - see [[Space]]).

==== Cramped interior ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid has 4-10 tiles accessible within radius 7 in the current room (objects that can be walked over do not affect this - see [[Space]]).

==== Confined interior ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid has 3 or less tiles accessible within radius 7 in the current room (objects that can be walked over do not affect this - see [[Space]]).

==== Was imprisoned ====
This thought occurs after a [[prisoner]] is released.
It does not occur to newly recruited prisoners.

==== Ratty apparel ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid is wearing apparel which has health between 21% and 50%.

==== Tattered apparel ====
This thought occurs when a humanoid is wearing apparel which has health 20% or less.

==== We butchered humanlike ====
This thought occurs when a human corpse is processed at a butcher table.

== Notes ==
If a colonist is resurrected using a [[Resurrector mech serum]], the various mood penalties from losing a spouse, friend, colonist and so forth are removed. If there were bonuses such as from a recent marriage, these will not return, either for the directly affected pawns or anybody else in the colony.<ref>[https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=49046.30 Topic about resurrection on the official Ludeon forum.]</ref>

== Version history ==
* [[Version/0.9.722|0.9.722]] - Tattered apparel thought added.

Doctoring

{{Rewrite|reason = Cleanup, fact check, [[Template:Verified|verification]]}}
{{TOCright}}

'''Doctoring''' is a type of work assigned to colonists from the [[Work|Work menu]]. The [[Medical]] skill is the primary determinant for success. Colonists [[incapable]] of Caring will never perform doctor work.

Doctor work assigns pawns to the following jobs: tending to patients, tending to self (if enabled), feeding patients, performing surgical operations, rescuing downed pawns or downed tamed animals, tending to and operating on animals, feeding ill animals, and cheering up patients.

How well a colonist performs in Doctoring mainly depends on their medical [[skill]], the quality of [[medicine]] used, and the cleanliness of the [[room]] in which they are operating. The doctor's physical condition plays an important role, too.

Doctors can heal other colonists, guests, prisoners or animals and will prioritize life-threatening wounds and illnesses before tending minor conditions.

Doctors can "self-tend" at 70% effectiveness to treat their own wounds or illnesses. Disabled by default, the self-tend option can be enabled in a pawn's Health-overview.

== Medicines ==
Medicine is used to improve the results of doctoring, therefore improving recovery from injuries and disease, and also allowing operations to be performed. Another perk to using medicine is that medicine is typically able to heal multiple low severity injuries (up to max of 20 damage worth of severity), which is something that 'dry-bandaging' can't do.

There are currently three types of medicine in RimWorld: the organic [[herbal medicine]], the standard [[medicine]], and the rare [[glitterworld medicine]] - in order from least potent to most potent.

It is possible to change the default healthcare given to pawns. Defaults to glitterworld medicine for colonists, herbal meds for everybody else, and no medicine for [[entities]].{{AnomalyIcon}}. To do this go under assign or animals and click on the medicine icon next to a pawn, holding click and dragging allows multiple pawns to have their medicine changed. The default medicine assigned can be changed by going under a pawn's health tab and clicking "Allow medicine" and then "change defaults"
=== Treatment options ===
Five treatment options are available; none at all, doctor care, herbal medicine or worse, regular medicine or worse, or best quality medical care.

For prisoners and guests the default is herbal medicine; colonists default to best care available.

In the early game, however, it is ideal to set the medical policy so that all pawns on the map only get basic doctor treatment. This allows precious medicine to be stockpiled for emergencies and operations, rather than wasted on minor injuries.

=== No medical care ===
this option prevents pawns from receiving any sort of medical care. Leaving them to die or rarely recover on their own.

As doctor care does not require any medicine, this option is not recommended unless your intent is to let the pawn die. If the colony has [[Ideoligion#Slaughtering_animals|Slaughtering animals]]{{IdeologyIcon}} precept, this can be useful to prevent doctors from tending to pen animals that inevitably overpopulate and start starving to death, saving their time for other matters. Pawns with that precept are not affected by tamed animals dying to natural causes.

=== Doctor care, but no medicine ===
[[File:Doctor care but no medicine.png|left]]
Doctors will attempt to perform a treatment without any sort of medicine, this is far slower then without medicine and treats only 1 wound at a time, due to the lower potency chances of infection occurring or immunity being outpaced by severity on diseases are higher. '''Note''' that it is not possible to do most operations without medicine. 
This is also ideal to use on bruises or long-term ailments that can't cause death in-order to save resources, such as [[asthma]], and [[Sensory mechanites|Sensory]]/[[Fibrous mechanites|Fibrous Mechanites]]

=== Herbal medicine ===
[[{{Q|Herbal medicine|Image}}|left|link=Herbal medicine]]
[[Herbal medicine]] is an organic medicine which can be grown from [[healroot]], or acquired from tribal factions. It is a cheap medicine that can be used for bleeding injuries or diseases that don't need more then 70% treatment, operations with a high success rate or where the patient's life doesn't matter such as organ-harvesting.

=== Medicine ===
[[{{Q|Medicine|Image}}|left|link=Medicine]]
Standard [[medicine]] is the benchmark of medical treatment solutions, and is also producible at a [[drug lab]] by combining herbal medicine, [[neutroamine]], and [[cloth]]. It can additionally be purchased from outlanders and orbital traders, and is occasionally dropped by pirate raiders and mercenaries.

Medicine is best used for bridging the immunity gap of illnesses or for installing body parts though the risk of failure is still present. Odds can be improved by boosting manipulation through drugs like [[go-juice]] and [[wake-up]] or implants.

It's not the best idea to excise cancerous growths using ordinary medicine due to its 0.7x success factor and 25% death chance on failure- unless your surgeon has at least a surgery success chance of 128.5% (achievable with a pair of bionic arms) - which translates to a roughly 90% success chance.

=== Glitterworld medicine ===
[[{{Q|Glitterworld medicine|Image}}|left|link=Glitterworld medicine]]

[[Glitterworld medicine]] is the most powerful medicine out of the three types available, and can only be found through trading with exotic good traders and faction bases or as a quest reward. Despite the high price, Glitterworld Medicine carries a value which no other medicine can carry: enhanced medical potency. Naturally, due to the cost, Glitterworld Medicine isn't worth the price for treating trivial diseases or injuries - but it makes surgery ''significantly'' easier, and allows even mediocre doctors to guarantee success in operations.

It is mostly useful for lowering the luck factor in treatment for diseases that would be otherwise lethal or low success rate operations such as excising cancerous growths, or installing bionics. Other medicine will be satisfactory for injuries or diseases with a low immunity to severity gap.

With DLCs Glitterworld medicines gains more uses for treating [[paralytic abasia]]{{RoyaltyIcon}} and [[blood rot]]{{RoyaltyIcon}} which cost 10, and the [[Biosculpter pod]]'s {{IdeologyIcon}} bioregeneration cycle costs 2 and treats missing small limbs and scars.

== Treatment ==
Basic medical work involving tending to wounds and illnesses. Treating wounds stop them from bleeding and reduce the chance of infections, while tending to illnesses slows them down allowing your colonists' immune systems to catch up and pull ahead.

Each individual treatment can have any quality from 0 - 130%, depending on the medicine used. Higher quality makes infections less likely and slows down illnesses more.

After each treatment there will be text feedback showing the wound/illness tended and the quality of the treatment. Only 1 injury will generate feedback at a time even if multiple are treated at once.

=== Tend quality ===
First, Base Tend Quality is calculated. Then, other factors apply if relevant. Tend Quality is adjusted up to 25% up or down randomly. Finally, the Tend quality is limited to a range between 0% and the Max Tend Quality of the medicine used.

'''1. Base Tend Quality'''
:<code>'''Base Tend Quality''' = [[Medical Tend Quality|Medical Tend Quality]] × [[Medical Potency]]</code>

:'''1.a. Offsets from hospital bed and vitals monitor'''
::If applicable, Medical Tend Quality Offset from the bed is added to the Base Tend Quality value. This offset only exists on Hospital Beds and Vitals Monitors attached to hospital beds. No other beds have Medical Tend Quality Offset.

::Laying Down is not a factor. Draft tends on injured colonists standing up will have the same Medical Tend Qualities as tends while laying in a standard bed.

::<code>'''Medical Tend Quality with Offset''' = Base Tend Quality + 0.1 Hospital Bed (if applicable) + 0.07 Vitals Monitor (if applicable)</code>

:'''1.b. Self tend factor'''
::If Self Tending, Tend Quality with Offset is adjusted by 70%.

::<code>'''Medical Tend Quality with Self Tend''' = Medical Tend Quality with Offset * 0.7 Self Tend Factor (if applicable)</code>

'''2. Randomization'''
:Medical Tend Quality is then randomized.

:<code>'''Randomized Tend Quality''' = Medical Tend Quality with Self Tend * Random Value between 0.75 and 1.25</code>

'''3. Maximum tend quality'''
:The Final Tend Quality is then limited to a range of 0 to Maximum Tend Quality from Medicine used.

:<code>'''Final Tend Quality''' = Clamped 0% to Maximum Tend Quality from Medicine</code>

:The maximum tend quality of each medicine is as follows:
:* '''70%''' for {{Icon Small|herbal medicine}} [[herbal medicine]] or no medicine
:* '''100%''' for {{Icon Small|medicine}} [[medicine]]
:* '''130%''' for {{Icon Small|glitterworld medicine}} [[glitterworld medicine]]

'''Notes:'''
* [[Light]] is ''not'' a factor of Medical Tend Quality. It is, however, a factor of [[Global Work Speed]] and thus of Medical Tend Speed and a factor of [[Surgery Success Chance]].
* [[Cleanliness]] is ''not'' a factor of Medical Tend Quality. It is, however, a factor of [[Infection|Infection Chance]].
* Being indoors or outdoors is ''not'' a factor of Medical Tend Quality. It is, however, a factor of cleanliness and thus Infection Chance.

==== Total tend quality ====
Some medical issues are cured when the sum of all tends performed reach a certain value. This is described as "total tend quality". The current total and the required total to cure will be displayed in the mouse-over menu on the issue in question on the pawn's health menu. The value will not be displayed for issues not cured by total tend quality, so its presence is a clear indicator of how to cure the issue.

The following use this mechanic:
* [[Gut worms]]
* [[Muscle parasites]]

=== Draft Tending ===
Drafted colonists can be forced to tend wounds of injured pawns using right click. The injured pawn does not need to be laying down in order to be draft tended. One can even Draft Tend an injured pawn on a non-aggressive mental break or a downed enemy in the field. The tend quality of Draft Tended injuries uses the same formula as undrafted treatment. The "Tend (without medicine)" option is useful for emergency treatment. The option "Tend ___" that does not say (without medicine) will use the medicine in the doctor's inventory regardless of the targets medical settings. After using the medicine in inventory, the doctor will grab the nearest medicine of any quality.

== Operations ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=More complete operations table - rough outline of one available [[User:Harakoni/Sandbox#Operations|here]]}}
[[File:Installing bionic arm.png|right|300px]]
An '''operation''' is a [[bill]] to be performed on a [[colonist]] by a doctor. This may involve the removal or addition of [[body parts]], administration of [[drugs]] or excising [[Carcinoma|carcinomas]]. Many operations require a minimum [[Medical|Medical skill]] (e.g. excising a [[carcinoma]] requires level 10). Some operations require a minimum [[medicine]] level ([[Herbal medicine]] is the minimum required medicine for most operations).

=== Operation Success Rate ===
When an operation is performed, a degree of chance is calculated to assess the probability that the outcome of the operation will be successful.

This is determined as a product of:
* The [[Medical Surgery Success Chance|Surgery Success Chance]] stat of the surgeon performing the operation
* The [[Medical Potency]] stat of the [[Medicine]] used for performing the operation
* The [[Surgery Success Chance Factor]] stat of a [[bed]] or other [[sleep furniture]] upon which the operation is performed
* The [[#Operation Success Rate Multiplier|Success Rate Multiplier]] for the specific operation

This may be expressed as:
<code> '''Operation Success Rate''' = [[Medical Surgery Success Chance|Surgery Success Chance Surgeon]] × [[Surgery Success Chance Factor|Surgery Success Chance Bed]] × [[Medical Potency]] × [[#Operation Success Rate Multiplier|Operation Success Rate Multiplier]]</code>

Note that additionally:
* The resulting '''Operation Success Rate''' is capped at {{%|0.98}}.
* If the '''Operation Success Rate Multiplier''' is ''Can't fail'', the '''Operation Success Rate''' will always be 100%, regardless of any other stats.

=== Calculating success ===
'''Surgeon's [[Medical Surgery Success Chance]] stat'''
* Determined by Medical skill. (see [[#Skill]] section)
* [[Manipulation]] acts as a direct multiplier. For example, 115% Manipulation = x1.15 success.
* [[Sight]] acts as a direct multiplier at 100% and below. For example, 90% Sight = x0.9 success but 110% Sight = x1 success.

'''Bed's [[Surgery Success Chance Factor]] stat'''
* Determined by type of bed and its quality. [[Bed]]s and [[bedroll]]s have a modifier of 1.0. [[Hospital bed]]s have a modifier of 1.15. [[Quality]] is a multiplier. Material does not matter.
* Then multiplied by the room's [[cleanliness]] stat. It is 1 for 0 cleanliness and 1.018 for a clean room with [[Sterile tile|sterile]] flooring. The minimum is 0.6, reached at -5 cleanliness and also applied outdoors.
* Then multiplied by [[light]] factor. If the head of the bed has lighting below 50%, there is a penalty. It reaches 0.75 for complete darkness.
* If surgery is done outdoors, there is an 0.85 penalty multiplier (on top of the above-mentioned 0.6 cleanliness multiplier).

'''[[Medical Potency]]'''
* Determined by the type of medicine. The [[medicine]] item (industrial medicine) has a modifier of 1.0. (see [[Medical Potency]])

'''Operation Success Rate Multiplier'''
* Modifier dependent on the type of operation.

{{Spoiler|section=1}}

Note that a doctor may lie (about the results of the inspection) if it is in their own self-interest {{Check Tag|When?|Does this happen when the pawn being operated on and having an issue is a lover or spouse? Or any other relations?}}.

|}

[[Metalhorror]]s{{AnomalyIcon}} lack a description and instead emerge if they were detected beforehand through interrogation or enough samples were collected to reveal it through a surgical inspection.

=== Failure ===
{{Stub|section=1|reason=How are they selected?}}
If an operation fails then the colonist will take damage, and materials (including prosthetics) will be wasted. For lesser failures, damage is concentrated near the site of the operation, while for the ridiculous failures they can be found anywhere in the body.

There are 3 kinds of surgical failure in-game.
*Minor: Deals a little damage, and will not destroy any body parts.
*Catastrophic: Deals great damage, and usually destroys body parts outright.
*Ridiculous: Deals great damage scattered across the entire body.

In addition, each operation has a death on failure chance; when it fails it is possible that the [[colonist]] instantly dies.

=== Available targets ===
Surgeons can perform operations on colonists, prisoners or guests. Performing harmful operations on guests or prisoners will anger the faction.

Tamed animals can be operated on as well, though there are limited options. [[Downed]] wild animals with the exception of [[Insectoids]] can also be operated on once dragged to an animal sleeping spot. [[Entities]] {{AnomalyIcon}} except for [[Ghoul]]s {{AnomalyIcon}} cannot be operated on at all.

=== Tips on Improving Success ===
The difference between a level 10 surgeon (93% base surgery success chance) and a level 20 surgeon (99%) is only a 6.5% gain in surgical success rate. The difference between Herbal Medicine (60% potency) and Glitterworld Medicine (160% potency) is a 167% increase in surgical success rate. Room quality has a great impact, too.

Due to the 98% success cap, using glitterworld medicine for surgeries is mostly only worthwhile in lower-quality surgical environments (less cleanliness, lower quality hospital beds, unskilled doctors). Beyond that point, industrial medicine is sufficient for the purposes of surgery.

== Infection ==
When a bed is set to be medical, selecting it shows the infection chance modifier of the room. The overall chance of infection is affected by tend quality, and then multiplied by the aforementioned number. Any bed, no matter what it is, has a 100% modifier on infection when outdoors, and only an incredibly dirty room can get close to this number. However, even at an 80% modifier, wounds tended by an unskilled doctor using herbal meds is likely to be around 10-20% infection chance '''per wound'''. Averting death by a thousand cuts will quickly become agonizing death by 100 infections in such circumstances.

It is much better to make the hospital as clean as possible. Start by covering or removing all natural floors (dirt, sand etc. but excluding stone) and ensure that the hospital is cleaned before tending to pawns. Keep all pawns, especially animals out to keep the room as clean as possible. Infection chance multiplier will likely become around the 40-50% mark or even lower. Next, unlock sterile tiles. A room with 0.6 cleanliness can have multipliers near 30%. To see the cleanliness of rooms, toggle on the room stats view on the bottom right corner and then mouse over the hospital (or any other room for that matter). Dirt, animal filth among other things drastically reduces cleanliness, and it also reduces beauty. This makes it possible to locate and prioritize cleaning through the beauty view. Remember to clean before the treatment when possible.

One of the most difficult things about keeping a hospital clean is bleeding. Bleeding colonists will leave blood on the floor, and blood reduces cleanliness. Someone hemorrhaging to death may create 4 or 5 blood splatters on the floor in a very short time, and if this is happening to multiple colonists after a disastrous raid, your doctor alone may not be enough to keep the room clean. Bring in another colonist or two to clean up after other patients awaiting treatment. What is important is the cleanliness at the time of treatment.

Other things like the presence of hospital beds and better medicine/doctors can reduce infection chance to next to nothing, and make it a non-issue when it does occasionally arise.

== Strategies ==
You will often need to make the most out of the doctors you have, to ensure maximum doctoring efficiency and colonist survival rate/ well-being.

=== Triage ===
You should have doctors prioritize treating patients according to their illness/infection/injury severity.

# Bleeding colonists should receive priority care as they may bleed to death or receive nasty infections. Always prioritize colonists closer to death.
#* Colonists about to die (<1 hours until death) are generally not worth saving unless you have extremely good bionic-enhanced doctors that can reach and patch them up in time.
#** Strip them to recover their clothes so they won't become tainted. How you will deal with the dead colonist is up to you.
#** If a [[Biosculpter pod]]{{IdeologyIcon}} is available, put them in it on the medic cycle, this is also useful for infections that have about a 10% immunity to severity gap.
#* Colonists that are very close (1-4 hours till death) to dying should have the best doctors care over them.
#* Colonists with around 5-8 hours before death can be treated by regular doctors, or by good doctors without medicine.
#* Colonists with 12 hours or more till death can wait.
# Colonists sick with deadly diseases should also receive priority care, especially those with wound [[infection]]s or the [[plague]].
# Non-bleeding colonists aren't in a great risk of both infections or blood loss; they should be put on the bottom of your priority list.

If left undirected, doctors will automatically tend in order:

# The nearest patients that will die from blood loss in 18 hours
# The nearest human patients
# Himself/herself if self-tend is enabled
# (Feed patients in bed)
# (Surgeries)
# (Rescue downed colonists and pets by taking them to bed)
# The nearest non-human patients

Note that this automatic priority does not take into account the overall severity and lethality of all the illnesses, infections, and injuries afflicting patients, other than the death from blood loss in 18 hours limit. Nor does it prioritize colonists over prisoners or visitors. If imminent death is a concern, it's not a good idea to rely on this default behavior.

=== Medicine allocation ===
Doctors will always tend to use the best medicine possible by default. To counteract this, set colonists' healthcare to Normal medicine or worse. Switch to Glitterworld medicine only if the colonist is down with a fast-working illness and you don't have a decent doctor on board, or they are about to receive a difficult operation.

You can also manually forbid medicine so they will be forced to use lower-tier medicine, so you can save your better medicine for later.

You should try to split your medicine apart into many stacks. If a doctor is about to treat a patient and someone else is getting medicine from a stack, your doctor will use medicine from another stack, or if there's none, he will try to dry-bandage the injured colonist. To combat this, you can draft doctors to go towards the medicine stacks, and manually un-draft and assign them to treat colonists when a doctor is finished taking the medicine.

=== Positioning ===
Medicine should always be put near the hospital. Don't put them right inside the hospital as it reduces beauty unless you're willing to build a shelf to put them in.
If you're anticipating the need for a treatment, have a doctor stand near your stocks of medicine. You can immediately get the doctor to heal them without having to have him go to the medicine storage and back, saving time. If using primarily herbal meds then it is best to cool the room. It will rarely be necessary to freeze them, but it could make the difference

=== Hospital design ===
[[File:8 hospital beds compact.png|150px|thumb|right|Compact placement of 8 hospital beds around a [[vitals monitor]].]]
{{Stub|section=1|reason=This section is good base but theres room for further develpment}}
* Assuming you're constructing new beds, or comparing beds of the same quality, prioritize [[hospital bed]]s over other bed types, and beds over [[bedroll]]s. Avoid using [[sleeping spot]]s unless necessary. However, also see the note on quality below.
* Compare the stats of the beds placed in the hospital - while Immunity Gain Speed Factor depends solely on the type of bed, Surgery Success Chance Factor is dependent on [[quality]]. A surgery is more likely to succeed on a Good [[Bed]] than an Awful Hospital Bed, but the opposite is true for surviving or recovering from [[diseases]].
* A well-equipped hospital will have one or more [[vitals monitor]]s, which give a bonus to several doctoring-related values, including fighting [[infection]]s and general healing.
* [[Sterile tile]]s improve cleanliness and thus outcomes. [[Steel tile]]s offer a lesser but still significant buff, and are significantly more accessible due to lower cost and work requirements, as well as being unlocked by a research project that is far more generally useful.
* Ensure that that every bed has 50% [[light]] around it. Consider lighting the entire room to allow you to safely place additional sleeping spots in case of overflow.

== Version history ==
* [[Version/0.9.722|0.9.722]] - Surgery can fail now, sometimes catastrophically. Failure chance is related to the surgeon’s medical skill and the quality of the medicine.
* Alpha 17 - It is now possible to change the default healthcare given to pawns. Defaults to best meds for colonists and herbal meds for everybody else.
* Beta 18 - all surgeries now have a minimum 2% chance of failure, no matter how good everything is.
* [[Version/1.3.3159|1.3.3159]] - Display current and required total tend qualities in the tooltip for hediffs with HediffComp_TendDuration comp.
* [[Version/1.3.3200|1.3.3200]] - Total tend quality info is now only displayed if the hediff disappears after a certain level of tend quality (since it's fairly useless otherwise).

Creepjoiners are an exclusive event for the [[Anomaly]] DLC. They are pawns who will randomly arrive at your colony offering to join, often providing great benefits however potentially bringing a hidden downside. You can encounter creepjoiners even if you have not yet activated the [[monolith]].

== Summary ==

A random [[human]] pawn appears that wants to join your colony. The pawn waits on the edge of your map for someone to be sent to talk to them. They usually have some great benefit, but come with large risks too.

If rejected, they can either depart peacefully or become hostile.

Joiners have a specific list of upsides and possible downsides. Not all combinations below are possible. For some options there is a minimum raid point requirement (e.g. metalhorror or fleshbeast emergence), and some types will be limited in their downsides and benefits (e.g., blind healer will always have unnatural healing, or someone with joybringer cannot have disturbing).

Creepjoiners can be studied for if taken prisoner, as can some of their side effects such as [[entities]]. Creepjoiners are studied for Advanced Anomaly Research and give 2 Advanced Research with a cooldown of 2 days. The Creep joiner must be walking to be possible to be studied.

The [[monolith]] does not need to be active for creepjoiners to appear.

=== Types ===

Main creepjoiner types (each has its unique backstory and equipment):

* Leathery stranger
* Dark scholar
* Deal maker — Has the [[Beautiful]] trait in addition to their other benefit
* Drifter
* Blind healer — Usually missing both eyes, which can be replaced with surgery
* Timeless one — Usually a very young adult
* Cult escapee - Usually has many surgical scars and/or removed body parts
* Lone genius - Always has the [[Too smart]] and [[Abrasive]] traits.

=== Benefits ===

They can have one of the following benefits:

* Perfect human — Has the [[perfect memory]] and [[industrious]] trait and 14 to 18 in all skills. The perfect memory trait prevents their skills from degrading.
* Occultist — Has a bonus to research
* Shambler overlord — Has an ability to create friendly [[shambler]]s through a release [[Research#Deadlife_dust|deadlife dust]] cloud power.
* Fleshcrafter — Has a Shape Flesh ability with a 1 hour cooldown, which converts a corpse into a [[fleshbeast]] that is hostile to all humans. The Fleshbeast created depends on the size of the corpse.
* Alchemist — Has a Transmute Steel ability with a 20 hour cooldown, which randomly converts one stack of [[steel]] or a steel slag chunk into [[plasteel]], [[uranium]], [[gold]], [[bioferrite]], or [[twisted meat]]; or a [[stuff]]able item or building made from steel into [[plasteel]], [[uranium]], [[gold]], or [[bioferrite]].
* Joybringer — Has the [[Joyous]] trait, which provides a passive {{good|+3}} '''joyous presence''' mood buff to all pawns in your colony anywhere within the same map
* Death refusal — Has the ability to self-resurrect themselves up to 4 times, healing lost limbs and organs each time. Scarring and resurrection sickness are possible.
* Body master — Has the [[body mastery]] trait, which completely removes the pawn's need for [[food]], [[sleep]], and [[comfort]].
* Psychic butcher — Has an ability that can instantly kill pawns, turning them into twisted flesh.

=== Drawbacks ===

Creepjoiners can have one downside applied to them upon spawning as well, which occurs after a 3-30 day delay while living with your colony, These downsides include:

* Nothing
* Desertion — The colonist will suddenly depart. {{Check Tag|Enslaved?|Do enslaved creepjoiners retain this drawback?}}
'' '''<PAWN NAME> departure:''' <PAWN NAME> thanks you for your hospitality, but says that it is time for <PAWN'S PRONOUN> to move on. ''
* Traitor — The colonist will suddenly become hostile, accompanied by a message about their evil expression.
* Metalhorror — The colonist is infected with a [[metalhorror]] (requires level 2 Monolith).
* Crumbling mind — The colonist will experience a severe health effect that renders them incapable of most tasks within a few days. The crumbling can be healed with a [[healer mech serum]] or by having another joiner use Unnatural Healing.
** Can be diagnosed early with a surgical inspection.
* [[Void fascination]] — The colonist will have a [[Mental break#Entity liberator|Entity Liberator]] mental break regularly and attempt to free all of your contained [[entities]]. this is immediately apparent due to being a trait. {{Check Tag|No entities?|what happens if there are no entities to free? is this replaced by another action or does the mental break still occur and just end up being treated like a daze?}}
* Psychic agony — The colonist emits an [[Hediffs/Anomaly/Global/Misc/Agony_pulse|Agony pulse]], on average once every 30 days, inflicting a large amount of psychic [[pain]] on nearby pawns. The pain is often enough to down your other colonists temporarily, and then lingers for multiple days at lower levels. [[Psychic sensitivity]] applies to this effect.
** If a surgical inspection is made on a Human who does this, this will be the results: "''(human) detected a faint but painful psychic presence emanating from (human) but failed to understand what was causing it''"
** This Event is very rare, and seems to only trigger when humans are grouped up, though it could be random.{{Check Tag|Detail needed|What triggers it an when}} When it happens, all nearby{{Check Tag|Radius?}} humans will gain 100% pain for a few seconds,{{Check Tag|Exact duration?}} reduced to 25% soon after, which last between 2-5 days. This can be sufficient to kill pawns.
* [[Organ decay]] — The colonist will suddenly develop severe organ decay, requiring you to replace their [[heart]], [[liver]], [[kidney]]s, and/or [[lung]]s.
* [[Disturbing]] — The colonist upsets other colonists, giving them a {{bad|-2}} '''[name] rambling''' moodlet when interacting with them, which can stack up to {{--|12}} mood. this is immediately apparent due to being a trait.

Separate from the downsides listed above, Creep joiners will become hostile if they receive friendly fire damage. This aggressive state on friendly fire damage can only occur once. If a Creep Joiner receives friendly fire, becomes captured, and then joins the colony, they will not respond to friendly fire with aggression. When recruiting creep joiners, it's recommended to sedate them, punch them once to trigger their initial friendly fire hostility, and proceed to capture and recruit them like any other hostile pawn.

If they become aggressive, they can react in various ways:

* Basic assault
* Fleshbeast emergence — A [[fleshbeast]] emerges from the joiner, killing them in the process.
* Sightstealer attack — The joiner will scream and summon [[sightstealer]]s {{Check Tag|Blind healer?|Is the probability of this drawback higher with a Blind healer? I've just had a blind healer with this one}}:
'' '''<PAWN NAME>'s howl:''' <PAWN NAME> has let out a twisted half-human scream. In the distance, you can hear other screams answering the call. They are coming... ''

Also they are not able to romance ordinary pawns, but they can romance another creepjoiner, or form relationships to pawns with the [[Psychic bonding]] gene,{{BiotechIcon}} such as [[Highmates]].{{BiotechIcon}} {{Check Tag|verify|Confirmed for leathery man. Is this relevant for other types of creepjoiners? Can be overridden with psychic bond}}.

Creep joiners initially start as Unwaveringly Loyal. If they are allowed to join your colony, the Unwaveringly Loyal aspect is removed permanently. They have 0 resistance and roughly around 80 will when imprisoned this is reset by their friendly fire hostility which can even occur during prison breaks.

== Analysis ==

Creepjoiners often have many powerful, colony-changing abilities. Evaluate the possible tradeoffs above, and be prepared to deal with sudden turncoat behavior. Inspect the pawn's entire bio and health tab carefully before recruiting them. Some creepjoiners such as the perfect human can be incredible and frankly game-changing if acquired, however one must decide whether the potential risks they may bring are worth it. Additionally, you may also want to consider the potential downsides of not recruiting the creepjoiner (such as a potential aggressive response).

Performing a [[Doctoring#Surgical_inspection|Surgical inspection]] operation right after recruiting a creepjoiner can sometimes reveal their downside early (for example, Organ decay, Psychic agony, Crumbling mind, Metalhorror). However, not all downsides can be revealed with a surgical inspection (for example, Desertion), so even if a medical inspection has no results then it is still necessary to stay vigilant.

Creepjoiners with Crumbling mind or Organ decay can be paused until you're able to deal with the issue by placing the colonist inside a [[cryptosleep casket]]. You will want to be prepared to potentially lose the creepjoiner for a very long time however (especially if they suffer from crumbling mind, which may require something as rare as a healer mech serum to cure), so be prepared if they carry out essential jobs such as cooking or farming.

If a creepjoiner's downsides cannot immediately be determined then it may be useful to keep them isolated from other colonists (such as utilising areas to restrict their movement or using a schedule that isolates them) until the downside either is discovered or reveals itself. This can be beneficial if the downside turns out to be one that can potentially affect other colonists, such as a Metalhorror.

Due to the risk of a recruited creepjoiner suddenly deserting the colony after a few days, you may want to consider whether or not it is worth giving them expensive or rare items (such as high-quality armor, weapons or bionic parts). While this equipment can be recovered if the deserting creepjoiner is arrested, there is always the risk that your colonists will not be able to catch up to them and you will consequently lose the equipment. To catch the deserter creepjoiner, it is advised to attack it to slow it down and then capture it. Successfully arresting the deserter and then recruiting them again will make them join the colony permanently, without wanting to desert again {{Check Tag|Verify|This seems to work, but needs more proof}}.
