Sexism

Every pawn is different. Each one now has a real height and weight, drawn from heritable physique genes, rendered honestly on the map, and explained honestly in the UI. A 6'2" bruiser towers over a 5'1" scholar, their feet stay planted on the same ground line, and the bio tab tells you exactly where each of them falls among the living population.

Out of the box this is a size mod and nothing more: pawns vary in height and build, gameplay stays vanilla. Everything else is a module you switch on when you want it.

The physique grid

Nine heritable frame genes cross stature (short, average, tall) with build (slight, average, stout). Height, weight, and body size all flow from that one gene, with natural variation for every pawn. Children grow into their adult frame. Every pawn reads as one of four physiques relative to their own sex: Compact, Willowy, Stocky, or Towering.

The physique overview

Click the physique panel on any pawn's bio tab for the full picture: percentile bars with plain language tooltips that walk through the whole calculation, a presentation spectrum, romance preferences, live gameplay effects, a colony roster ranked by size, and a quadrant map of your population with density clouds and a gold marker for the pawn you are viewing.

Optional modules

• Body types: body art follows sex or presentation, with realistic male body derivation from build.
• Skills and passions: classic gender roles, or roles that follow presentation instead.
• Physiology: sixteen stat modifiers split by role, scaling with each pawn's actual physique. Every stat has its own toggle.
• Romance and attraction: pawns carry their own taste in stature, build, and presentation. Works for every orientation, and orientation itself is never touched.
• Expression spectrum: a presentation trait (masculine, androgynous, feminine) rolled on overlapping curves, so masculine women, feminine men, and androgynous pawns all emerge naturally. It describes presentation only, never sex, identity, or who a pawn loves, and it changes nothing unless a module reads it.

Bodies and apparel

Loosen the usual conventions when it suits your colony: let anyone wear anything regardless of tags, let some male role pawns use the softer silhouette, and tune the height gap between the sexes from zero to exaggerated. All off by default, all cosmetic, and every pawn remains exactly who they are.

Settings

A tabbed settings window retunes everything: presets (size only, classic dimorphism, full spectrum), the per sex spawn weight grids, every skill bias, each physiology stat, expression curves with a live preview, per race toggles for alien races, and one click role reversal.

Compatibility

Big and Small (per pawn size authority, its size genes and traits are respected and never doubled), Humanoid Alien Races, Nals Facial Animation and Realistic Body, Compatible Body 2, Modern Bio Tab, Rimpsyche, 1-2-3 Personalities, Romance On The Rim, Intimacy and Gender Works, RimJobWorld, and Rimbody.

My Quality Commitment:

• Fully Tested: Every feature and line of code has been thoroughly tested in-game to ensure it functions as intended and integrates smoothly.
• Active Support: I am fully committed to maintaining this mod. If you encounter any bugs, compatibility issues, or unintended behavior, please report them in the comments or a dedicated discussion thread.
• No Abandonware: I will actively patch, refine, and update this mod to keep it working and up to standard.
• No Coffee: I will never ask for donations for AI created / assisted mods. I share these in the hopes they spark joy for someone, making AI generated content and then begging for money that could go to artists and people more deserving is NOT responsible AI usage.
