Singular Traits

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

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.
