How to make one race disliked by all others?
« on: December 05, 2010, 06:56:25 pm »

IIRC there is a way to make it so that races dislike other races, but how do you do it? Basically I wanted to make some sort of cliche "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVVVILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!" race, but didn't want them allying with others and dancing on rainbows.

I think making them baby snatchers or item thieves makes them automatically makes them at war with everyone else.

I believe if you add the [UTTERANCES] tag it removes their ability to speak coherently, and thus causes them to be hated by all.

Not so sure about the other suggestions (I really don't think that having baby snatcher/item thief tokens causes automatic war, and I don't know if being incomprehensible really ticks off any races in particular), but giving them an ethic with 'acceptable' while all others having 'unthinkable' or 'appalling' will cause all the other races to be much more likely hostile towards them in world gen.
