MorrowRim - Passive Birthsigns

Also available on GitHub

Adds in a passive set of Morrowind inspired birth signs using the ESCP Birthsign framework in Race Tools. These are designed to seamlessly fit into RimWorld. The name of quadrums is also changed to something a little more Elder Scrollsy.

Birthsigns:

By default, every humanlike pawn will receive the birthsign that corresponds to their birthday. Each birthsign corresponds to a third of the appropriate quadrum, five consecutive days for each birthsign. For example, a pawn born within the first five days of Aprimay will be born under the sign of The Lord.

The only exception to this is the sign of The Serpent, which wanders the night sky. Any pawn may be born under The Serpent at random.

Royalty and Ideology:

While both Royalty and Ideology are listed as requirements, the mod will work without them. However, several of the birthsigns are intended to use stats that are locked behind one of the expansions, and as such without the expansion, some of the birthsigns will lose their bonuses.

Questions you may have:

Can I add this to an existing save? Yes, though it isn't retroactive. Though there is a debug tool that will allow you to give the appropriate birthsign to pawns.

Does this work for animals? No.

Does this work for non-player pawns? Yes.

Does this work with Biotech children? Yes.

Does this work with X HAR race? Most likely yes. By default any humanlike race is affected, however there is a mod extension that can be added to specific race to exclude them. Of course there is also a setting to override this behaviour.
