Troll Face in Status with Perk Name?

[DragonDai (Uey)]

So I just started a game. My leader's perk was "Friend of Dog." When I open the Status screen, I see, after the word "Perk:" the words "Friend of Dog." But on the line above this entry, on the same line as the "Tired" status effect, the words "Friend of Dog" are written again with a Troll Face in front.

I've seen this before once or twice. What does it mean?

Yes, the trollface icon is used for the FRIEND OF DOG perk currently.

why is it written twice? it's a bit odd

[Rocketcat Games]

It's both a perk and a status effect, so it gets written twice. Explorer does the same thing. Could change them to be different, but I worry it would confuse people.

Got it! That makes a lot of sense! I was sure I had seen it somewhere other then Friend of Dog, and Explorer would be exactly it. Cool. Thanks for the clarification! :)
