Biology and Appearance

Devaronians are a unique species in that the sexes are vastly different in appearance and temperament.

Males

The males are hairless and dark skinned. Their skin colour ranges from red tints to pink, brown, white and even green. Males also grow short horns on their heads. They take great pride in them and wax and groom them regulary. Devaronian males also sport a very long tongue by comparison to other humanoids. Their tongue easily matches the length of their lower arm. Their teeth are generaly made up of sharp incisors, making them well-equiped for their carnivorous nature. Some males sport two sets of teeth however, one inner set of incisors and an outer set of molars and canines, giving them an advantage when it comes to the choice of food. When it comes to eating Devaronians have another notable ability; their metabolism is so efficient that almost nothing they digest goes to waste. As a result you will not often see a Devaronian use the restroom.

Devaronian males share another kind of look at the world compared to their female counterparts. Most of the men are 'carefree' to say the least and when they approach their middle age often get the urge to wander out into the galaxy. The males encountered are often described as bold, rash, unscrupulous, even irresponsible. They don't care as long as they're free to go where they please.

Females

Devaronian females tend to be covered in fur. The face, hands and feet are not so heavily haired. Sometimes the hairline recedes enough to reveal small circular bulges where the males usualy have their horns. The females tend to be slightly slimmer but also somewhat taller then the males. Their teeth are more suitable to an omnivore, sporting prominent canines and molars. If their tongues are as long as the males is unkown.

A popular saying among Devaronians is: It's not the length (of the tongue) but how you use it.

This is certainly true for Devaronian females: not as carefree as the males, they are considered wise. They're not bold or rash but when they speak, every word can land like the cut of a blade and do twice as much damage. This is not to say they are agressive though. Devaronian females are rather dominant. Someone has to hold the family together when the man has gone and the women of Devaron have perfected the way they govern the household and, by expansion, their culture and planet. Only women gain a place in the governement and political offices.
