Xenotype Backstories

Xenotype Backstories mod preview for RimWorld

Adds backstories that are only ever selected for pawns of a specific xenotype, specific possibilities alongside all the normal ones.

Adds backstories that are only ever selected for pawns of a specific xenotype, specific possibilities alongside all the normal ones. Balance is meant to be more in line with vanilla, these are modest bonuses that play into the strengths of these xenotypes. The backstories have no disabled work types or penalties beyond what the xenotype itself has.

Requires Biotech and Harmony. Odyssey is optional, only needed for the Starjack backstories.
