Ah I see! That makes sense! Autocorrect? 😂
‘Trait’ is similar to ‘characteristic’ but I think ‘trait’ is used more often when describing people. I would usually opt for ‘trait’
I think ‘trait’, ‘characteristic’ and ‘quality’ are all pretty much the same. I would use them interchangeably. I think quality and trait might be used more often when describing personality rather than physical appearance, whereas characteristic sounds more like physical description to me.
As for ‘feature’, somebody’s ‘features’ refers to somebody’s physical looks. “He has sharp features.” Would refer to a man having a sharp face (sharp jaw, sharp cheek bones etc)

As far as I know, ‘prey’ and ‘feature’ have nothing in common, so it sounds odd to compare them.
However, in the case of characteristic and character:
Character - a person/being in a book/movie/tv show
Character can also refer to somebody’s mental and moral qualities, for example, somebody with ‘good character’ has great qualities.
A ‘characteristic’ is a single quality that somebody or something has, for example:
‘The defining characteristic of a robin is a bright red chest.’
Q: “What characteristics does she have?” A: “She is tall, she has a big nose and she is very kind.”
