Dwarven personalities are determined by a set of traits.
{{av}}
 
  
Dwarven personalities are determined by a set of traits.  These traits are distinct from [[attributes]].
+
==Personality Trait Tokens==
 
+
Found in the raws:
Personality traits are shown in a dwarf's "thoughts and preferences" description page, which can be accessed by {{k|v}}iewing that dwarf then {{k|p}}, {{k|z}}, {{k|Enter}}, or from the {{k|u}}nit menu with {{k|v}}iew, {{k|Enter}}.
+
* ACTIVITY_LEVEL
 
+
* ADVENTUROUSNESS
Each trait 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:

* ALTRUISM

The 40-60 range does not cause a report.
 
 
 
Traits are also influenced by species via the use of the PERSONALITY [[creature token]]. For example, dwarves are slightly more straightforward 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.
 
 
 
Traits 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]]. Traits may have other, more subtle effects on creature behaviour, which are currently not entirely understood.
