Hidden trait

Hidden traits cannot be seen in-game except when a Sim performs a related action autonomously or an unlocked interaction is available.

Most hidden traits become available when a Sim has a baby with certain NPCs or a Sim in a specific career. The child might then get the appropriate hidden trait.
