I agree. Like eusocial bees, etc. on Earth, there is probably one reproductive queen per division of population (in the case of Scrabs, one per herd). Possibly long ago there were multiple Mud, Gluk and Slig queens, but as they each evolved the ability to view themselves as a species, they became increasingly territorial and competed more heavily. I think this is comparable with how early huminan species possibly wiped each other out.
I find it interesting that there is much more discussion about Scrab society than there is about Paramite society. Why is this?
