[edit] Hidden Traits

Sneak
Burglars must perfect their sneaking skills to properly liberate imprisoned items from the homes of neighbors. Burglars like to keep the skill in the family, so their children are able to sneak out like a pro at birth.
Can Apprehend Burglar
Police officers spend years to best the most clever burglars. Luckily for their children, genetics helps them stop burglars without years of tedious training.
Can Salute
Children of high-ranking military officials know enough about the military's rules and regulations to snap off a smart salute when they want.
Immune to Fire
Fire Fighters are able to survive countless fires; not because of their natural immunity to fire. It's a trait that they pass on to their children.
Makes No Messes
The descendants of maids have cleanliness imprinted on their genetic code so they never leave anything dirty.
Pizza Appreciator
Pizza delivery folks develop a love of pizza that's deeper than the thickest crust. Their children share a similar fanaticism for pizza, which makes every bite of hot pizza amazing.
Pyromaniac
You can only get this trait in a Sim who is the offspring of a firefighter Sim. The trait allows them to set fire to objects of their choice, and they get positive moodlets for doing so!
Rocker
Sims with this trait will get a natural feeling of rockstardom.
