Prim



Prim Tech - Data Panel

Includes: Simple shaped tools (usually stone, sometimes some minimal metal-working), or organic material from the environment (bone, plant fibre, etc) or in some cases secreted by the organism itself

Constitute: Prim Societies

Also Found In: More developed societies, usually as curios, fads, or fashion accessories.

Toposophic Requirements to Manufacture and Operate: Presapient and Baseline equivalent sentients

Current Galactographic Distribution: Indigenous Caretaker God and primitivist Utopia Sphere protectorates; a number of societums; also widespread as crafts in more advanced societies and civilizations

Further Comments: Most emerging civilizations go through an extended (usually millions of years) prim phase. Many uplift, rianth, and splice clades and cultures deliberately take on a prim culture, technology, and lifestyle, usually as a temporary phase and test of virility, but in a few cases permanently. More rarely, neumann-capable vecs able to access a fully developed botworld have been known to choose some the equivalent of the prim lifestyle.  Prim artifacts - or nanotemplates thereof - can usually be found in many regions throughout the civilized galaxy, and are often surprisingly popular.
