With three clawed "fingers" or manipulatory digits on each hand and a height slightly taller than an average adult human, the Voth are a humanoid species. The Voth also have a better sense of smell than most humanoids species, a sense which is regulated by an olfactory centre named the 'dilutus lobe', as well as great physical strength. They possess heavy boned brow ridges that form a central crest rising to the back of the skull as a conical protrusion. It appears that the wide of | With three clawed "fingers" or manipulatory digits on each hand and a height slightly taller than an average adult human, the Voth are a humanoid species.

These shades range from green to yellow, ochre and brown. | ||
The Voth have great control over their metabolisms and certain other biological systems within them. When cornered, they can deliberately lower their heart rate and body temperature, to entered a form of protective hibernation or stasis. Also, they can communicate non-verbally through vasodilation, a process in which blood vessels are temporarily enlarged to facilitate a higher rate of blood flow. This compensates for their lack of the diverse facial expressions that are used by many other humanoid species to display emotions. | The Voth have great control over their metabolisms and certain other biological systems within them.

Along with the "city-ships", the Voth also have a number of scientific starships. Their institutions for science, research and education are called "Circles" (e.g.: the Circle of Archaeology, the Circle of Science and Philosophy, the Circle of Exobiology). | Along with the "city-ships", the Voth also have a number of scientific starships.
