pan spechi

Pan Spechi are a fictional species in Frank Herbert's science fiction novels, The Dosadi Experiment and Whipping Star. Pan Spechi are unusual in that a single individual has five different bodies, each uniquely different from the others; the lifespan of a Pan Spechi involves transferring the ego serially and irreversibly through each body; while the ego possesses one body, the others remain safely hidden in the individual's creche. 'Creche matters' are extremely private to Pan Spechi, and any intrusion or even mention in conversation upon creche matters is a cause for extreme offense. The highest crime of the Pan Spechi is 'fixing the ego', or surgically altering the ego's current body to prevent ego transfer to the next. Any Pan Spechi caught in such a state is immediately killed, regardless of the circumstances.
