| - | Standing a little shorter than an average [[humans|Human]], the Manitari have bodies made of soil and skeletons of stone, some of which protrudes out from the surface. These inanimate bodies are controlled by a nervous system of fungal veins which permeate the soil body. They have long arms and slightly shorter legs, and lean forward, sometimes ambling on all fours. Upon the backs the fungal roots extend up out of the soil and grow into mushrooms, which are also bioluminescent. Their heads consist of fungal matter, and resemble a mask with two eyes and a small, round mouth. Their voices have a hollow, whistling quality. Their face is not capable of expression, but their eyes are capable of conveying nuanced emotion in a unique and beautify way. Their heads sweep backwards on the top, turning into "gills" which are used for their sense of smell | + | Standing a little shorter than an average [[humans|Human]], the Manitari have bodies made of soil and skeletons of stone, some of which protrudes out from the surface.
