The n’mob are decended from a dolphin-like species. Their eyes are retro-reflective. Their skin is fairly insulated, this has is believed to be the reason for their cooling suit, allowing for much enhanced productivity.
The are considered to be the closest local species to humans. Bipedal, upright, only two more limbs. Internally, the torso could be called inverted – ribcage connected at the base of the abdomen, all 4 arms connected to a pelvis-like sturcture.
There is not a huge amount of obvious gender dimorpisisim, though it has been suggested it would be much more obvious if the cooling suits ever came off. or the ten layers of clothes worn above that.
it’s hard to say wether the cooling suits permit, or are required because of, so many layers of clothing.
These layers are brightly colored, as to be easily “machine readable” by their world AI. The chosen layering supposedly indicates emotional state. The solid colors are sometimes customized by the wearer beyond tailoring for fit (which isn’t a tight tailoring, as they may be relayered at any time).
The nmob head has a mouth, the roof of which contains a blowhole – thus the appearance of two tounges, if willed. There is a ridge where the nose would be, but no flare at the bottom, and no nostrils. The appearance of hair is actually a fat bulge – though with effort, the edges of this can be “styled” like a haircut.
Legs, with no pelvic attachment, are extremely muscular.
It’s been suggested the n’mob form has changed significantly under their world ai breeding program. it’s two bad there isn’t some lost colony based on a pree-ai population to compare to.
