Imperial Truth - Traits and Heritage

My goal is to fix and upgrade the developers shallowness in all aspects of the game.
I’m slowly creating a detailed Rome Remastered mod pack (which will include: richer map, more territories, new traits and ancillaries, new and rebalanced units and buildings, UI, economy, etc.)
My grand mod will build up from these smaller standalone mods, most of it you will be able to use separately as long it's not built on each other. Every faction buildings and units chain will be upgraded, but my main focus will be the House Scipii. Except for them, I will try to make the mods more or less historically accurate. House Scipii will have some historically unrealistic units, (like horse archers and phalanx units) and a unique monotheism religion called The Imperial Truth. (Among others it was inspired by the Stoicism philosophy.)
I'm working on this alone in my free time, so do not expect any fast miracle but feel free to try out what is done so far. Also, I always welcome constructive feedback If you have any please write it down in the Comments section below. Testers are always welcome.


First Standalone Mod: Traits and Heritage

This small mod gives 11 heritable traits which you can add to your chosen character through consol command or editing the descr_strat.txt file. [location: …\Steam\steamapps\common\Total War ROME REMASTERED\Contents\Resources\Data\data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign]
All of these 7 traits give small buffs to different values, but the main purpose of them to protect the character with „AntiTraits”. For example, your character with the "AncientBloodline" trait can not get traits like "Insane" (Dysfunctional, Quite Mad, Utterly Insane) or "Disloyal" (Apparently Loyal, Doubtful Loyalties, Disloyal) etc. Traits full description below.
Small changes in the additional heritage system: Offspring will more likely have their ancestors' qualities.
