Creepjoiner

Creepy joiners are an exclusive event for the anomaly DLC.

Summary

A random pawn appears that wants to join your colony. They usually have some great benefit, but come with large risks too.

When rejected when they are asking to join your colony, they can either depart peacefully or attack you.

Not all combinations are possible. For some options their is a minimal raid points requirement (e.g. metalhorror or fleshbeast emergence), and some types will be limited to the downsides and benefits (e.g., blind healer will always have unnatural healing, or somebody with joybringer cannot have disturbing).
