Sophontology
// DESCRIPTION
The study of intelligent alien species — their cognition, culture, and behavior. Use Sophontology to understand alien intelligences, predict their behavior, communicate with them, and navigate alien cultures. It's the Master-level skill for first contact situations. Sophontology covers everything from alien psychology to alien politics to the fundamental question of whether an alien species is even capable of understanding humans. In a universe where you might encounter intelligences that are truly alien, Sophontology is the skill that helps you survive the encounter.
