Hssuga have tails, and scaly skin which they shed in pieces once each year. They also do not reach their full growth until they are about thirty years old, and their lifespans are shorter than humans', lasting only about fifty years.
Hssuga skin is blue-black to greenish-brown in color, though some clans in the southwest jungles have a light greenish-gold hue. Their eyes are golden in color, with green or black flecks. Their eyes are set closer together than a lizard's, allowing true stereoscopic vision. Their snout is also shorter and wider than most reptiles, with pronounced ridges protecting the nostrils.
Hssuga attributes are modified as follows:  Physique +1, Coordination (Quickness) +0 (1).  Hssuga do not possess an Insight Trait, and thus cannot learn Sorcery.
