Speaking creatures (those with the [CAN_SPEAK] token) are able to hold conversations with other such creatures. Adventurers from species without that token (such as e.g. a plump helmet man) will be unable to talk. Civilizations without this token will wage endless wars because their inability to speak means they can't negotiate treaties. Strangely, this token is not necessary for creatures to gain social skills.
