Stygians all possess Human-like bodies, with horns protruding from their heads. Females tend to have smaller horns, while males have much larger ones. Beyond this, all Stygians have slitted, red or yellow eyes, forked tongues, and elongated fingers with sharp claws at the tips. Each race of Stygian has its own skin coloration, with a distinct feature different from the others. Acid Stygians, for example, don’t have hair, as much as flexible spines, usually seemingly having much larger manes of hair than their cousins, they also appear to have a sickly green coloration to them. Frost Stygians are a distinct blue hue, with small openings along their skin that are capable of releasing a liquid oxygen like substance, giving them an overall scarred appearance. Fire Stygians, however, have deep red skin, ebony horns, and sacks on their throat that can produce flammable fluid that is ignited in their mouths. Beyond this, all Stygians have tapered ears.
