特性は、キャラクターのパーソナリティ、能力、評判、および身体的特徴を表します。これらの特性は、イベントによって獲得したり失われたりすることがあり、なかには子孫に受け継がれる特性もあります。特性は、属性値（attributes）から他人が感じている評価（opinion ）まで、キャラクターに関するすべてに影響します。ほとんどの特性は、特定のイベントの結果に影響を与えたり、追加の選択肢を与えたりします。ルーラーデザイナーを使用する場合は、カスタマイズポイント（customization points）を消費します。

Diseases
Diseases are Health traits that can be spread from one character to another. If a character is cured of a Disease it becomes immune to it, preventing them from gaining the trait again. Each year a character has a 10% chance to gain an Illness trait though this can be reduced in multiple ways.
