Dealan Cuthach appear as large
humans, except with more pronounced lines of facial geometry, strong
chins and noses and defined cheekbones. Their ears are larger and
somewhat pointed. Their eyes are proportionate, but tend to have green
or blue pupils and a semi-slitted pupil, about half-way between a cat
and a human.

curly, with colours ranging from black through dark and light brown

with age). Some manifest beards, others don't. Their skin tends to be
tanned or sunburnt due to their protracted exposure to the outdoors and
would tend towards a tanned brown in any event.
