Editing Characters

{{Template:TOCright}}RimWorld is a game based on the story of its characters, either player-managed colonists or AI-controlled wanderers and raiders.

Each character has two sets of attributes, a basic set of skills and a two-part backstory (childhood and adulthood) that affect the starting skills and (in)abilities of the characters.

-It is also possible to Banish a colony member by clicking the door icon, this action will generate a confirmation window and if confirmed, it will cause a -3 mood debuff to all other members and loss of any worn gear. Banishing a character that would die if banished will give your colony a -6 mood debuff. This is mostly useful for cleanly removing colonists you obtained and don't want, instead of using other [[Human meat|methods]] [[Human leather|of]] [[Subcore ripscanner|removal]].

-Some characters have spent decades or centuries in cryptosleep. They have their biological age followed by their chronological age in parenthesis. Their biological age indicates how much they've aged, not counting time spent in cryptosleep. Their chronological age is their age since their date of birth, including time spent in cryptosleep. Biologically older characters will tend to have higher skills, developed by experience. They may also have gray hair and [[Injury#Old Age|age-related health difficulties]] such as cataracts, a bad back, dementia, or frailty.
-With the addition of the Royalty DLC, characters can also possess psylinks that grant them versatile psychic abilities and royal titles from the Empire.
-===Skills===
-{{Main|Skills}}
-A character's skills denote how effective they are at the relevant tasks. Depending on their backstory, a character may have some skills permanently disabled.
-===Backstories===
-{{Main|Backstories}}
-Each character has a maximum of two backstory elements: a childhood and, if old enough, an adulthood. These elements affect the colonist's starting skills and may prevent the use of some skills entirely.
-Note: It is possible for characters to be generated with contradictory backstories (e.g. childhood backstory elements disabling skills that adulthood elements are themed around).
-===Traits===
-{{Main|Traits}}

-===Thoughts===
-{{Main|Thoughts}}
