What The @desc Would Say If It Wasn't An Order Of Magnitude Too Long

Nihaxu is a bipedal robot with a vaguely reptillian appearance. Its silver-colored, metal snout has no mouth, only a simple internal speaker arrangement. Small twin cameras with slit-style apertures resemble glowing, yellow, reptillian eyes as the atmospheric chemical sensors are placed to resemble nostrils. Auditory sensors sit as internal microphones at the back of the head. The joints between the head and neck glow a bright blue, a side effect of the force field that keeps the parts from directly contacting, the frictionless connection preventing wear on the robot. Its neck appears to be built of several overlapping plates, more of a blue glow visible at every connection due to the internal joints that allow it to flex and rotate.

The general reptillian shape is clear in Nihaxu's forward stance, counterbalanced by a tail slightly longer than the robot's height. The tail has a plate arrangement similar to the neck, with the same blue glow. The end of it appears to be entirely glowing blue, but this is an illusion created by the extremely large number of flex points near the end, allowing its tail to be prehensile. The thin, digitrade legs have similar glows at the joints, similar to the joints of the arms. The hands, however, are far more complex than the robot's two-clawed feet, each hand having three strong, opposable fingers.

The body of the robot is nearly unadorned, a small collection of blue lines betraying the presence of motorized pockets it can use to store small objects. Closer inspection of anywhere on the robot would reveal an extremely fine grid of tactile sensors, and this grid would be extremely visible due to its density on its feet, hands, and tail were it not for the blue glow surrounding the area. Nothing in the robot's relatively simple design grants any information about gender or emotion.

Theory of Nihaxu
