Lo Teks differ from standard Low Techs in their more rational understanding of the universe, from Prims in their more advanced technology, and from Ludds in their open and tolerant life-style. They deliberately choose reliable low maintenance technology, which may be anything from Prim to High Tech in level. Like Prims they most often live in small tribal groups or clans, or at most in small cities, rather than in large populations or civilizations, though there are some notable exceptions. Lo Teks are widely found throughout the Terragen Sphere in commensal or symbiotic roles, although parawild and wildhu forms are also not uncommon.
