Hello there, folks! I'm stating my intent to create a Cho-Ja centric nation and I'd like to kick things off with a quick question.

Could traits such as heavily armored or various other things of that nature refer to natural armor (or weapons, as the case may be)? For example, I intended to have a heavily carapaced/exoskeletoned soldier caste who would shun all but padding (for fear of maces and warpicks and the like) and simple ornamentation in terms of protection and dress, respectively.
