Ancillarys
You add an ancillary in much the same way a a trait, cheat menu, enter give_ancillary "Charactername" Ancillaryname Level. Most are level one but some have extra levels so play about. Allso some ancillary are contradictory so dont blame me if they sometimes dont work. The maximum level for any of them is 5 so dont experiment too hard. These traits only apply to some character types so use some logic when applying (eg fine cosmetics are obviously for your princess unless you like your generals fabulous). The latter of these are unique ones (eg Michealangelo) apply these sparingly im not sure of the consequences if you dont.
