Autosomes determine the Vast majority of inherited traits, but we have had threads detailing this topic in relation to Ydna, and I am not finding threads detailing in light of mtDNA.

What do you think? Any interesting observations or anecdotes about potential traits carried by or at least correlated with people of certain mtdna groups? Disease susceptibility seems influenced by it..

In a male person, not so much probably. The Y-Chromosome does carry around 200 genes that can affect male appearance because thats the chromosome that is responsible for forming male sex.

mtDNA isn't the same.
