	While the species is communal and conformist, this does not mean that every Skrell has the exact same beliefs. While Skrell can be split between [[Skrell#Receivers_and_Listeners\|Listeners and Receivers]], where Listeners are less susceptible to the wider thoughts of the species and Receivers are more susceptible, there can still be difference in thought regardless of this split. The species consensus reached through the Nlom can only influence a Skrell's thoughts so much; the species as a whole may agree Artificial Intelligence is dangerous, but more specific ideas differ on an individual level. For example, the debate on Cephalons and Viax being used by the C'thur is contested, with many saying that it is very close to Artificial Intelligence. This idea is not shared by every Skrell, with the Federation even exploring the use of Cephalons as a replacement for AI for strategic purposes. The group thought that influences all Skrell can also be impeded by personal experience, such is the case with many Skrell in the Traverse. While a majority of Skrell believe in the Federation and how it operates, the reality faced by Skrell on the frontiers of Federation space has resulted in the region being a hotbed for anti-Federation thoughts and activity.

	When playing Skrell, it is important to think about what factors would influence your character's thoughts. If your character is a Secondary Numerical from the [[Inner Systems]], has been exposed to Federation propaganda all their life, and did not personally experience oppression at the hands of the Federation, they would be more inclined to agree with the group consensus reached through the Nlom regardless of their Listener or Receiver status. When faced with evidence that the Federation's actions are wrong, however, Listeners may be quicker to change their attitude than Receivers because Listeners are less influenced by the Nlom.

	Skrell behave very differently compared to other species. They are long-lived, and are prone to thinking more in the long-term than the short-term. This can manifest however you wish, and players are not expected to be constantly thinking ahead. Generally speaking, Skrell characters would act in a way that sacrifices short-term benefits in favour of long-term ones. Additionally, Skrell do not show emotion in the same way that other species do. Emotions are displayed through physical mannerisms and vocalisations, and are not usually apparent in their speech. These mannerisms can differ, and a Skrell born abroad in human space may take on more human approaches to displaying or vocalising their emotions. When roleplaying out your character's emotions, it should be done in subtle ways that would make it difficult in-character for non-Skrell to discern immediately.

	[[~~Nralakk_Federation~~\|The Nralakk Federation]] is the major Skrell political entity within the Orion Spur. The Federation's history can be traced back to its [[Skrell_Early_History#Unity_of_Skrell\|first founding]] in '''878 CE''', created in response to a rising independence movement within the Federation's colonies. The Federation was briefly dismantled following the rise of Glorsh-Omega, and was reestablished as the '''Second Nralakk Federation''' following the reunification of the species post-Glorsh.

	While on the surface the Federation is a meritocratic state, its society is heavily stratified based on a '''social credit system'''. This system scores individuals based on how closely they follow the ideals of the Federation, with low-scoring individuals being stripped of their rights while high-scoring individuals are treated as celebrities. This inequality in Skrell society has contributed to a rise in criminal and non-conformist movements that work against the Federation and its status quo.

	Because of their long lifespan, Skrell tend to have a “long view” not common in other races. Passive observation and study is far preferred than immediate action, and do not mind that decades or even centuries can pass before their decisions begin to pay off. Older Skrell can seemingly make incomprehensible decisions, but further investigation often reveals that these choices are often related to carefully laid plans.

La Villa Strangiato: Adds a hidden TOC. Italicises "see also"s (we should probably have a template for this like Desven suggested). Renames "Social" into "Skrell Sociality and Society". Arranges "Notable Information" into "Politics and Factions". Rearranges "Skrell History" to be under the "Mechanics" section. Skrulture now has language and slang beneath it. Fixes some redlinks.
