It seems to be related to the default hairstyle.

Braided: The gold braided on your head
you're right! just got another hair style and the null thing went away, guess it's actually tied to the default hairstyle then

not sure how much this would be useful since i've checked this multiple different saves (even started a new game and same result) but sure here

Recently hair/head descriptions got changed to accommodate a new pair of items that change Steele's head to be snake-like iirc. It wouldn't surprise me if it didn't have something to do with this bug.

those two changes were actually unrelated. donkey's under the hood tweaks have actually been in the pipeline for quite a while, well before the snake hood stuff, just waiting for review and implementation mostly.

Thanks, found a fix for this.

My recent change was in part structural, so it would be easier for us to tell from looking at the code when a description was missing. As a part of that change, I also made it capable of showing an extremely basic description when a proper description was missing (a must if somebody has a crazy one-off do).

The default pc hairstyle is "null", which was being printed here. The code had an exception for null values, but for a time back in the flash days they actually used the word "null" instead of null, so the exception wasn't working.

All that to say, submitting a fix for this now.
