Typically biped vetu with thin body hair, except for concentrated regions on top of their head, in the armpits, and around the crotch (some are capable of growing facial hair as well). They have a face ending in a nose and ape-like ears positioned at the sides of their head. They have nail-tipped fingers and toes, with opposable thumbed hands. They possess a poor sense of smell but have superior vision compared to other vetu. Atu also have a breathing hole at the base of their skull in conjunction with their ability to breath through their nose and mouth. This makes it nearly impossible for an atu to choke on food.
