Jala'Lak are the slow-moving giants of the forest. They are believed to be descended from brachiator primates but have adapted to their larger size by becoming bipeds. They manipulate with arm-like appendages but can also grasp hold with their small, thick prehensile tail. The mouth is encased within a hard beak and the eyes are located at the front of the face. They do have external ears but they are hidden under the head fur. The entire body is covered in several layers of thick, curly fur which varies in colour from white to a dark grey. The feet are broad and circular with five toes while the hands consist of two fingers and an opposing thumb and two striking claws. The sex organs are retracted in both sexes. On first impressions the Jala'Lak of Uaam/Argi (Dagudashaag 0940) may look extremely fierce: but are normally very passive.
