Traits are like atoms of personality that you can assign to your Sims. You combine them to create complex personalities. There are about 65 Traits to choose from, separated into different categories like mental, physical, and social. When you assign Traits to a Sim, that Sim will look and act the part. Toddlers, Children and Teens get a new trait at their birthday. If children had a good childhood, then you can choose a trait. If not, the game will give them a random one. They’ll have unique behaviors, preferences and advantages. Some traits give you special abilities. They can be useful to improve skills and to get special interactions.
Young Adults and up have 5 traits, Teens have 4 traits, Kids have 3 traits, Toddlers have 2 traits.
