There are a lot of different traits, both negative and positive, in the game. This King Arthur: Knight’s Tale Traits List & Guide lists all of the different traits we have discovered in the game including information on what benefits they provide or what their negative effects are.
We did not test for every single character but we tested for many. When a character joins your party they will have their own stats, abilities, class, and Traits. These Traits appear to be fixed. So there’s no point in restarting missions to try and cycle through different Traits for Heroes, they appear to be set prior to recruitment.
Don’t worry too much about the negative ones. You can remove negative traits in King Arthur: Knight’s Tale, so if one or two are particularly troublesome, there is a solution.
