Yelrinites are roughly 5 foot to 5 foot 10 inches tall, depending on males or females. They are mammalian in nature and appear to have predator features like bifocal eyes and pivoting ears on the top of their head. The front of their mouths are lined with rather sharp teeth, but the back teeth are better equipped for grains and nuts. Their skin is patterned, and tends to be an area of sexual dimorphism between the two -- men have larger stripes and in more frequency than females.
