YM ManiacTraits And BackStory
OVERVIEW
Welcome to YM_ManiacTraits & BackStory!
This mod adds over 10 unique "traits," each with extreme strengths and weaknesses, and a selection of rich, narrative-driven "backstories" for your colonists.
Tired of mundane characters? If you want to experience a more dramatic and thrilling life on the Rim with colonists who have truly sharp personalities, this mod offers new story possibilities.
WHAT'S ADDED?
■ Maniac Traits
Each added trait provides powerful benefits at the cost of significant drawbacks. You'll need to carefully consider a colonist's role based on their personality and your colony's needs to truly leverage their talents.
Data Supremacist: A brilliant mind with incredible research speed and shooting accuracy. However, they despise manual labor and may panic in situations not covered by their database. "This isn't in the data!"
Power Supremacist: Might makes right. They possess overwhelming melee combat skill and mining speed but hate delicate tasks. With a short temper, they might become a troublemaker who disrupts the harmony of your colony.
Confident Beauty: Their stunning looks are incredibly effective in negotiations and trading. However, their pride is immense, and if their beauty is scarred, they will fall into a despair as if the world has ended.
Rock Breaker (formerly Miner Brawler): A professional of mining and brawling with fists that can shatter stone. In exchange, they are clumsy with delicate tasks like construction and art.
Culinary Botanist (formerly Field Chef): A true master of growing and cooking. In their hands, even the most barren land can become a lush garden. However, they are utterly hopeless at handling animals.
Workshop Hermit (formerly Workshop Savant): A master who has perfected the arts of construction, crafting, and artistry. They silently produce masterpieces while secluded in their workshop but are completely useless in combat or social situations.
Scalpel Wielder (formerly Scholar Healer): An elite who combines genius-level medical skill, intellect, and social grace. However, they are incapable of manual labor or fighting, requiring their comrades to protect them.
...and many other traits await!
■ Unique Backstories
These backstories enrich your characters' histories and create more specialized skill sets.
Childhood: Wild Child: Raised with animals, they are skilled at handling them but are ignorant of the norms of human society.
Childhood: Noble Birth: Raised in the upper class, they excel in arts and social matters but are incapable of dirty or menial work.
Adulthood: Genocide Machine: The ultimate soldier, created only for combat. Unstoppable on the battlefield, but can do nothing else.
Adulthood: Working Machine: A specialist dedicated to production. They can perform any manual task but have no aptitude for violence or social interaction.

COMPATIBILITY
This mod should be compatible with most other trait mods. However, traits with similar effects may lead to unintended balance issues.
FUTURE PLANS
We plan to add new traits and backstories periodically. Stay tuned!
