What do I need to open it?

Can I see it before I buy?
Yes, scroll down. The peek section shows real spreads from this exact pack, so you know exactly what you're getting.
Not just a trait list.
50 traits + 5 bonus traits across 5 sections, each linking a visible guarded behaviour to the private reason behind it.
It gives your supposedly cold crew member a private stake, so every clipped reply and carefully public distance can leave the reader reaching for the witness statements.
Meet “The Shared Meal That Required Three Witness Statements,” an entry on public distance used to protect a forbidden attachment. It follows the visible behaviour, the damaging conclusion the crew draws, and the private stakes underneath.
This reference library takes traits such as coldness, bluntness, clinginess, control, selfishness, aloofness, rudeness, and excessive directness, then gives each one a human reason. Use the tells, costs, outside perception, and story possibilities to build characters whose guarded behaviour creates pressure on the page and holds up once the truth arrives.
It is for writers of starship drama, forbidden romance, and crew conflict, especially when one difficult, tightly controlled crew member has far more at risk than the briefing-room rumours suggest. A person eating alone, holding a meeting through an open door, or making every kindness deniable can protect a lover, a secret, a career, or the fragile arrangement keeping everyone aboard.
Give the crew a conclusion. Give the reader the transmission that changes it.
Every InkJaw pack gets its own jokes: the little notes in the margins, the whisper on the cover, the small stamps tucked into corners. We write them for this pack and nowhere else, so they keep making you laugh long after the first read.
A full page of mock-legalese, written just for this pack — everything InkJaw formally declines responsibility for. The only terms and conditions you'll actually want to read.

The trait everyone reads wrong, what it looks like from outside, and what's actually underneath.
