The night was young and still in it’s infancy when a shadowy figure ascended the steps leading toward the Sith Empire’s recruitment facility. The young... being was clad solely in black, where material garments were used. His uncovered head was a sickening brown, adorned with scabby scales in the process of shedding. He had no hair, and the most of his body was covered in his dark robe. A tail, long and thin, but covered in the same scales as those on his head peeped from underneath the upper-part of the robe. Ears were taken place by two small holes on either side of the head, and as he walked a thin, red-forked tongue played outward reluctantly, tasting the air through which he strode. Eyes were alert with a dull yellow gleam, much the same colour as the handful of unaligned teeth that rowed his gums. That same colour was easily duplicated further down his body, first to be found as a stubby yet sharp tip aiding the tail, and also, in it’s longest form, of the same material on his claws. The claws were with him on two places on his body. First, on his hands, which were tough, brown and scaly as the rest of his body, while the claws were long and thin, growing straight out of the finger and thumb tips in place of fingernails and harbouring the same dull yellow as his eyes and teeth. The claws on his un-booted feet were much the same, although they were different in positioning. While a normal humanoid would have five nailed toes pointing straight forward, this creature had three facing front, and two reversed. Out of all of these grew the same yellowed (yet slightly muddier) claws as did on the hands. These made a click every time his foot fell, although if need be he could easily raise them off the ground and walk only with the scaled underfoot. Hissing breath that escaped his thin lips left a trail through the cold night air, and his eyes picked out many details of the surroundings, as they were designed for this time of day. The black material he wore he called a robe, and it met it’s ends just below his elbows and again a while lengthier than his knees. It started in a V-neck on his upper section, displaying his scaly chest and short neck.
He came close to the door which he was seeking, now, and his cold blood pumped slightly faster as he made for it. Out in the shadows to his left he could taste and hear another humanoid lurking. Making no immediate sign of this knowledge, he continued step toward the door.
When almost upon it, however, he turned sharply on his heel to glare with cold eyes onto the shadows. Silently, he watched as the figure emerged.
