20 questions · about 8 minutes

20 items across 5 traits. Your rarity percentage is calculated, not invented: each trait is converted to a standard score against an assumed population average, and the combined distance is evaluated on a chi-square distribution with 5 degrees of freedom. The population figures are estimates, so treat the percentage as well-founded but approximate.
