Stereotypes of Outremer

Stereotypes are another name for cultural Traits in StarCluster 3 games - they are what you might get if you asked a stranger for a generalized description of a whole culture. They are very useful as descriptors for the culture as a whole, and as personality traits for people from that culture when it's not worth creating a personalized set of Traits. They also can be used as starting points for player characters when choosing their own Traits.
