It sometimes show on a character: "Incapable of: Scary".
So, what does it do? I mean, it wouldn't probably do anything ATM, but why was it created?

Currently, it renders colonists incapable of fighting fires. It might do other things, but I don't think so.

"Ooh, fire! Scary!"
That sounds so camp. If Scary disables Firefighting, then surely it should also disable Fighting, but at the moment Can't Fight is Incapable of: Violent. Gets a bit weird when someone won't fight fire but has no problem shooting at Raiders.
I like how this game can result in quotes that would be quite unnerving when said in public, out of context. - Myself

The dubious quotes list is now public. See it here

Also becomes incredibly amusing when you get pacifist raiders dropping in to say hi.

The randomness of some character stats/traits are astonishing, from pregnant grandfathers and 15 years old Nimphomaniac girlies, through dyslexic, disfunctioning teachers to blinds with telescopic vision. But do not forget the miners who can't mine, or the assassins incapable of fighting.
Personally I've raped the randomization button a few hundred-thousand times, there were times when I nearly fell of my chair...
To beer or not to beer.
That is a laughable question.

Are you sure that you "raped the randomization button?" Perhaps you meant that you tapped it? I'm sure that it was willing and asking verbal consent from a button seems a bit of PC overkill.

You really had to bump this old thread just to said that? I wish i hadn't deleted my old account, so i could lock this  :-\

Yeah, this wasn't a justified resurrection. Gonna lock it.
