	In truth, their race is called the Zudjari. A militaristic species, they forego names and instead are referred to by rank and abilities, with a few exceptions. Their physical appearance is of a grey-skinned humanoid, ~~roughly the same height (and~~ taller~~) as~~ an adult human male, with a triangular head, and a mouth, that while having a jaw structure similar to human, has "lips" that open ~~horizontaly~~, from chin to the top of their bald head.
