Personality traits, or just personalities, are made up of beliefs, goals, and facets, distinct from attributes and mannerisms. In general, personality traits do not have as important a gameplay effect as attributes, though many of the gameplay effects of personality traits are as yet unknown.

Personality traits are shown in a dwarf's thoughts and preferences description page, which can be accessed by viewing that dwarf then p, z, Enter, or from the unit menu with view, Enter.

Beliefs are what a creature values; examples include things like tradition ("He/she holds the maintenance of tradition as one of the highest ideals"), cooperation ("...is thoroughly disgusted by cooperation"), and sacrifice ("...believes that those who sacrifice for others should be deeply respected"), but personality facets, on the other hand, are how a creature acts. So, an especially angry dwarf would have "S/he is in a constant state of internal rage", and one with low altruism would have "S/he feels helping others is an imposition on her time". Beliefs and facets are capable of conflicting, but this doesn't mean they are incompatible. For instance, it's possible a dwarf will deeply value romance even though one of their personality facets prevents him/her from forming romantic bonds. This particular combination would show up in the thoughts and preferences screen as "He never falls in love or develops positive feelings toward anything, and he is bothered by this since he sees romance as one of the highest ideals". (Goals, however, are described below).

She personally values romance, finds maintaining decorum a silly, fumbling waste of time, values tranquility and a peaceful day and doesn't care about art one way or another.

Beliefs

Each belief has a range from −50 to 50. The value triggers a report on the "thoughts and preferences" screen, depending on where it falls in these seven levels:

Value range	Values in range	Probability	Effect
+41 to +50	10	0.4%	Highest
+26 to +40	15	2%	Very High
+11 to +25	15	8.5%	High
−10 to +10	21	78%	Neutral
−25 to −11	15	8.5%	Low
−40 to −26	15	2%	Very Low
−50 to −41	10	0.4%	Lowest

Beliefs are also influenced by cultural values via the use of the VALUE entity token. For example, dwarven civilizations hold craftsdwarfship in the highest regard, whereas goblins hold the ideas of fairness and sacrifice in utter disdain. If an individual person's belief differs significantly from the civilization's beliefs, then that belief gets highlighted in cyan in the thoughts and preferences screen. Beliefs, along with facets, dictate needs and the frequency in which they need to be fulfilled before the focus of the dwarf/adventurer is negatively impacted.

Beliefs can be changed through successful arguments. In adventure mode, this can be used to change the core beliefs of your adventurer (and by proxy, some of your needs). Since you can argue for beliefs you don't actually hold, you can convince a person of a belief you want to hold, get into another argument over said belief, and acquiesce to their (new) position. Note that facets cannot be changed in this way, although they may be subject to changing due to events that happen in your adventure.^[Verify] In fortress mode, some memories have the potential to change beliefs over time.

Certain beliefs can conflict with personality facets — see below.

Goals

Some creatures dream of accomplishing certain goals in their life, and these goals can presumably affect their behavior. If a creature has such dreams, they will be listed in the Thoughts and Preferences page. Dwarves will receive a happy thought upon completion of their goals, receiving the notation of "and this dream was realized" in the personality description following their original goal. Goals would apparently not currently be limited to one per creature, but for some sort of oversight: [1].

Token	Description	Gameplay effects
START_A_FAMILY	dreams of raising a family	Goal completed upon giving birth/fathering an infant.
RULE_THE_WORLD	dreams of ruling the world
CREATE_A_GREAT_WORK_OF_ART	dreams of creating a great work of art	Goal completed upon creation of Artifact or Masterpiece.
CRAFT_A_MASTERWORK	dreams of crafting a masterwork someday	Goal completed upon creation of Artifact or Masterpiece.
BRING_PEACE_TO_THE_WORLD	dreams of bringing lasting peace to the world
BECOME_A_LEGENDARY_WARRIOR	dreams of becoming a legendary warrior
MASTER_A_SKILL	dreams of mastering a skill	Goal completed upon reaching Legendary skill status.

ATTAIN_RANK_IN_SOCIETY	dreams of attaining rank in society	Goal completed upon becoming a baron (and possibly other noble positions).
BATHE_WORLD_IN_CHAOS	dreams of bathing the world in chaos

Facets

Each personality facet has a value from 0 to 100. The value triggers a report in "thoughts and preferences" depending on where it falls in these seven levels:

Value range	Values in range	Probability	Effect
91-100	10	0.4%	Highest
76-90	15	2%	Very High
61-75	15	8.5%	High
40-60	21	78%	Neutral
25-39	15	8.5%	Low
10-24	15	2%	Very Low
0-9	10	0.4%	Lowest

The 40−60 range does not cause a report.

Facets are also influenced by species, via the use of the PERSONALITY creature token. For example, dwarves are slightly more greedy than average with a median of 55 in that trait, whereas goblins aren't likely to help others out — their altruism median is a mere 25, and is capped at 50.

Facets also have an effect on which social skills are learned in social interaction, and determine whether certain actions may give a good or bad thought. Facets may have other, more subtle effects on creature behavior, which are currently not entirely understood. Like beliefs, memories may change a creature's facets over time.

Facets which are marked below with "†" also contribute to relationships - values which are significantly different (i.e. greather than 60 in one dwarf and less than 40 in the other) will contribute toward the formation of grudges.

Certain facets are capable of conflicting with a creature's beliefs. The effect of this is not yet known.
