Society: Sleeths live in peaceful, scholarly communities. Each sleeth village is headed by a dean, who often presides over a governing body called a faculty. In times of trouble, the deans of neighboring villages gather together and form a college . They then elect a president from among their number to preside during their decision-making. Once the trouble is dealt with or the major decision made, the college and presidency dissolve, and the deans return to their villages. The faculty is composed of professors, the most respected members of sleeth society. Beneath the professors are teachers and students. Visitors are often referred to as transfers. Sleeths tend to be friendly to transfers . They are subtly arrogant in the extreme , however, believing themselves to be men tally superior to all other races. Sleeths build beautiful villages and towns. They make full use of their plant control ability. Though sleeth villages and towns are mostly Tech Level III, they almost always contain high-tech items. These items are put to easse living contiinos and for defense.
