Mostly Introverted/Avoidant Psyche
+0
−0
I have a species with mostly avoidant and introverted personalities. They prefer to stay in small, nomadic groups and flee when the surrounding population becomes too large.
The criterion for "too many people" is met internally by measuring the intensity and duration of surrounding stimuli, especially noise. Too much noise and the creature attempts to find a way out.
Why would this happen? What evolutionary advantages does this provide for a creature with human-level intelligence?
