Starfield:Traits

This article is about character traits. For planet traits, see Planets.

Traits are optional special characteristics about your character that provide a variety of modifiers to gameplay. You can take between zero and three total traits, but some traits are mutually exclusive with others.

List of Traits[edit]

Group	Name	Description
No group (select any)	Alien DNA	You volunteered for a controversial experiment that combines alien and human DNA. As a result, you start with a higher health pool and greater endurance, but healing items aren't as effective.
	Dream Home	You own a luxurious, customizable house on a peaceful planet! Unfortunately, it comes with a 125,000 credit mortgage with GalBank that has to be paid weekly.
	Empath	You are deeply connected to the feelings of others. Performing actions your companion likes will result in a temporary increase in combat effectiveness. But, performing actions they don't like will have the precise opposite effect.
	Hero Worshipped	You've earned the attention of an annoying "Adoring Fan" who will show up randomly and jabber at you incessantly. On the plus side, he'll join your ship's crew and give you gifts...
	Kid Stuff	Your parents are alive and well, and you can visit them at their home. But you will automatically send 2% of your credits home to them every week.
	Taskmaster	Occasionally, if you have crew trained in a certain ship system, that system will automatically repair itself to full health whenever it is damaged below 50%. However, all crew cost twice as much to hire.
	Wanted	Someone put a price on your head, and word has spread. Occasionally, armed mercenaries will show up and try to kill you, but being cornered gives you an edge - when your health is low, you do extra damage.
Personality (select 1)	Extrovert	You're a people person. Exerting yourself uses less oxygen when adventuring with human companions, but more when adventuring alone.
Personality (select 1)	Introvert	You really need your alone time. Exerting yourself uses less oxygen when adventuring alone, but more when adventuring with other human companions.
Adaptability (select 1)	Spaced	Your body has become acclimated to space. Health and oxygen are increased when in space, but decreased when on the surface.
Adaptability (select 1)	Terra Firma	You've never acclimated to space. Health and oxygen are increased when on the surface, but decreased when you're in space.
Faction Allegiance (select 1)	Freestar Collective Settler	You gain access to special Freestar Collective dialogue options, and better rewards from some missions given by the faction. But, crime bounty towards other factions is greatly increased.
	Neon Street Rat	You grew up on the mean streets of Neon. You gain access to special dialogue options, and better rewards from some missions on Neon. Crime bounty by other factions is greatly increased.
	United Colonies Native	You gain access to special United Colonies dialogue options, and better rewards from some missions given by the faction. However, crime bounty by other factions is greatly increased.
Religion (select 1)	Raised Enlightened	You grew up as a member of the Enlightened. You gain access to a special chest full of items in the House of the Enlightened in New Atlantis, but lose access to the Sanctum Universum chest.
	Raised Universal	You grew up as a member of the Sanctum Universum. You gain access to a special chest full of items in the Sanctum Universum in New Atlantis, but lose access to the House of the Enlightened chest.
	Serpent's Embrace	You grew up worshiping the Great Serpent. Grav jumping provides a temporary boost to health and oxygen, but health and oxygen are lowered if you don't continue jumping regularly - like an addiction.
