They retain similar characteristics to baseliners; capable of speech, tool usage and bipedal movement. However, they do maintain piglike elements. Pigskins have a robust digestive system and can eat almost anything without getting sick, however, a notable drawback of the xenotype is their trotter-shaped hands that make it more difficult to manipulate tools and objects and their nearsightedness results in their preference for close-range - or explosive - weaponry.

Pigskins congregate and usually form factions known as the rough pig union. Essentially, a loose alliance of rugged pigskin townships that prefer to interact with their own kind - but, have been known to make friends with 'thinsnouts'. However, they're far more ready to toss a bomb and gnaw human gristle when it suits them, which is their general approach unless one cosies up to them. Earn their respect, and they'd be a worthwhile ally, reading to offer a trotter to those they think of as friends.

|- id="Reduced pain"

Pigskins are formidable opponents. Thanks to [[Genes#Reduced pain|reduced pain]], pigskins require twice as much damage to be [[downed]] from [[pain shock]] - the most common way to disable a pawn through combat. Rough pigskin unions often use a combination of [[shotgun]]s, [[grenades]], and melee weapons to make up for their nearsightedness. While not as tough as a [[neanderthal]], pigskins move as fast as a baseliner and have access to industrial technology.

! Reduced pain<br>[[File:Gene_PainReduced.png|64px]]

| Carriers of this gene feel half as much pain compared to a baseliner. Reduced neuron activity in the brain's nociception centers makes pain dull and faint. This can be advantageous sometimes, and dangerous other times.

As colonists, pigskins come with a few quirks. Trotter hands reduces [[Manipulation]], meaning pigskins are 85% as fast at doing most work. Nearsighted means an accuracy penalty when shooting from 26 tiles or more. And they eat more food than a baseliner. In return, pigskins can eat raw food safely, are resistant to disease, and have reduced pain.

Early on, both [[food poisoning]] and disease can be major setbacks. Their traits are also useful in a [[caravan]]. But in an established colony, the negatives will often outweigh the benefits. Yet the negatives are tolerable. You shouldn't reject an otherwise good colonist just for being a pigskin. Like with the rough pig union, colonist pigskins are most effective wielding shotguns, grenades, melee, or [[launcher]]s, which all circumvent the nearsighted gene.

=== Gene extraction ===
 
−
Some of the more valuable genes pigskins have to [[gene extractor|extract]] are:
 
−
* [[Genes#Strong stomach|Strong stomach]] - Full immunity to [[food poisoning]], which is still possible (if rare) even with the best cooks.
 
−
* [[Genes#Strong immunity|Strong immunity]] - 110% immunity can be helpful to save on medicine and potentially save lives. Even when medicine is no longer an issue, this gene helps pawns recover from disease faster.
 
−
* [[Genes#Nearsighted|Nearsighted]] - Can be installed on [[brawler]]s, melee fighters, noncombatants, and anyone using a ranged weapon with a range under 26 tiles without penalty, giving a boost to metabolic efficiency. For a full list of unaffected ranged weapons, see {{#ask: [[Range::<26]] [[Class::!Mechanoid Weapons]] [[Name::!Uranium slug cannon]] [[Name::!Autocannon]] [[Name::!Mini-turret gun]] | ?Range | limit = 0| searchlabel = here}}.
