[[File:traits_preview.png|right]]'''Traits''' personalize and add flavor to your colonists by granting a wide variety of special bonuses or conditions to their day to day activities, and so encourage more complex player-conceived stories based on those individual characters.  Traits provide physical or psychological abilities or limitations, likes/dislikes, behavior tendencies, personality quirks, and so on.  Some are beneficial, some are harmful to the colonist or your colony as a whole.  Some are constant, some only rarely triggered.  Some can be more or less easily negated or manipulated to your advantage by catering to them (or denying them), others are more problematic or outright dangerous.

{{Stub|section=1|reason=How traits work, when and how they're selected, how they work with genes, limits, etc.}}
 +
A human pawn can be generated with up to 3 traits, which are selected based on the weights of each one. Sexuality traits are special insofar as can be assigned even after all the normal traits were already selected, allowing for rare 4-trait pawns.
  
== General traits ==
+
Some [[backstories]] will force or prevent certain traits from being chosen, as will certain [[genes]].
 +
 
 +
{{Biotech}}
 +
A gene with a '''forced trait''' will forcibly add said gene to the pawn in question, limiting the available traits if this happens upon pawn generation. If the gene is removed afterwards, the force trait will be removed as well with no replacement.

These traits are generalized into groups, organized roughly by topic but there are no such groupings laid out formally in the game. There are no relations or prohibitions between traits grouped together here unless noted (e.g. a colonist cannot be both "ascetic", wanting a minimal bedroom, ''and'' "jealous" of those with better bedrooms).

Traits preview.png

Traits personalize and add flavor to your colonists by granting a wide variety of special bonuses or conditions to their day to day activities, and so encourage more complex player-conceived stories based on those individual characters. Traits provide physical or psychological abilities or limitations, likes/dislikes, behavior tendencies, personality quirks, and so on. Some are beneficial, some are harmful to the colonist or your colony as a whole. Some are constant, some only rarely triggered. Some can be more or less easily negated or manipulated to your advantage by catering to them (or denying them), others are more problematic or outright dangerous.

Mechanics[edit]

A human pawn can be generated with up to 3 traits, which are selected based on the weights of each one. Sexuality traits are special insofar as can be assigned even after all the normal traits were already selected, allowing for rare 4-trait pawns.

Some backstories will force or prevent certain traits from being chosen, as will certain genes.

A gene with a forced trait will forcibly add said gene to the pawn in question, limiting the available traits if this happens upon pawn generation. If the gene is removed afterwards, the force trait will be removed as well with no replacement.

Currently, there are 6 instances:

Gene Forced trait Prevents/supresses

Singular Traits[edit]

These traits are generalized into groups, organized roughly by topic but there are no such groupings laid out formally in the game. There are no relations or prohibitions between traits grouped together here unless noted (e.g. a colonist cannot be both "ascetic", wanting a minimal bedroom, and "jealous" of those with better bedrooms).

Creepjoiner Traits[edit]

These traits are never randomly assigned to pawns. They are normally found on creepjoiners, and therefore have powerful positive or negative effects to balance out the other strengths and weaknesses creepjoiners have.

Perfect memory, Occultist, Joyous, and Body mastery are considered benefits, to compensate whatever mysterious downside haunts the creepjoiner.

Disturbing and Void fascination are considered downsides, meant to counterblance the creepjoiner's powerful benefits. Note that, unlike most other creepjoiner drawbacks, these traits are never hidden; as such, you be assured there are no other nasty surprises waiting for you.
