In terms of appearance, Aemette are unlike any other Reptilians. To most other intelligent races, the Aemette resemble humanoid bugs. Most Aemette have hard, shiny carapaces, mandibles, and at least six legs. (Though that number can grow much higher.) The wide visual diversity among the Aemette is often considered astounding to outsiders. From different numbers of limbs, the appearance of vestigial wings, and countless different colors and styles of exoskeletons... it can be hard to know you're looking at the same race of people! Despite the wide diversity in potential appearance, most Aemette resemble ant-like humanoids with six limbs, two antennae, mandibles, and large eyes. Black and red exoskeleton are more common than other colorings.

Traditional Aemette clothing is often made out of a mixture of fur and hide, often dyed in vibrant colors. Use of carved bones and polished gemstones is also common in Aemette accessories.

Aemette age unlike any other people, reaching adulthood only two years after having been hatched. Even stranger, Aemette are a long-lived people that can live even longer than the elves (on average). Like other Reptilians, the Aemette lay eggs, though they do not typically struggle with the same birthing issues as their scaled brethren. Even so, the Aemette face another reproductive hurdle - 99.999% of Aemette eggs are blighted, resulting in no viable larva within the shell. Because of this, the Aemette are near extinction and their population only grows smaller.
