Sapient

Sapience is a term for a creature that is self-aware and acts as a cognitive individual. Sapience is a concept beyond the pure mechanical differences between IQ 5 and IQ 6, which seems to emulate many traits, yet works like a 0 point feature. Any creature with a sense of self is sapient, and any creature that speaks a language is quite likely to be sapient.
Efforts could be made to break it down by trait differences in respect to the non-sapient.

*Immune to Animal Control Magic 15
==Disadvantages==
*-2 in surprise situations without a leader

==Note==
Bestial is part of the Wild Animal trait which sentient non-sapient animals have, so they can still get ponts for it.
* Not Bestial might however be part of a Sentient metatrait.
