The koth are one of the older races in the galaxy, and were one of the first to make contact with other intelligent life. A proud and powerful people, the koth are one of the few species that are almost entirely united under one banner, that of the Koth Empire.
Koth are tripodal, meaning that they have three legs. Their body structure tends to be thin and spindly, though their wiry frames can hide great physical strength. Koth are completely hairless, and generally have a dull gray skin tone, though it is not unheard of for some individuals to have lighter shades of gray, or even white skin. Koth mouths are framed by a pair of mandibles, which are the primary source of facial expression. Those unused to interacting with koth often have great trouble reading their mood.
