Tetramand
Physical Description
Tetramands are a large-bodied humanoid species noted for their bifurcated anatomy, including an additional pair of arms and eyes. Most Tetramands are red, but some blue and brown skinned Tetramand exist. Tetramands have spikes on their arms. They have two claw-shaped toes on each foot. Tetramands appear to have an additional set of smaller pectoral muscles below their primary set to help move their second set of arms. Each one of their four hands has three fingers and a thumb.
Tetramands have hair that turns gray as they get older, but most of them lack hair.
Tetramands have an average height of 10 feet and can grow to be as tall as 15 feet high.
Culture and Social
Tetramands are a warrior race. They are fairly aggressive and favor violence. By nature, Tetramands are emotional creatures, just like Humans. If a male Tetramand manages to defeat a female Tetramand in combat, the male becomes the female's chosen husband. Tetramands live in very close knit family tribes and defend their kin to the death.
Tetramands are not very amicable towards outsiders. Tetramands are very strict in the upholding of their laws; an offender whose crime was merely jumping the turnstiles at an auto show was buried up to his neck in sand. Tetramands are not big on exceptions. Tetramands have a unique way to ultimately decide court cases; fight. Tetramands get to fight with their accusers in a battle arena and the winner of the Tetramand Trial of Combat wins the case.
