Tall humanoid canine species. Avg 6-7 ft tall, not including their tall, rigid triangular ears. 7-8ft including ears?
Covered in a thin coat of very dense black fur that they take great pride in maintaining. Canine face with a large protruding snout and jaw. Human-like hands with sharp claws and more canine-like, digitigrade legs, with four large paddle toes, spread out with lots of surface area for movement on the sand.
The fur/fluff within their ears is a pale white/gold colour. Their sclera are pale shades of whitish yellow/gold/orange. Their pupils are more vivid reds, golds and oranges.
-They have pale goldish skin around the ears and extremities, unlike their black facial skin.
Naturally desert dwelling, they tend towards a nomadic culture, carrying all their belongings on themselves.
Anku don't keep pack animals or cattle, believing it wrong to take away the freedom of another creature.
A carnivorous hunting species, Ankue use pack hunting for large prey, using their own natural weapons or long pike-like staffs.
Anku men and women alike often leave their upper body bare, covering only their lower half with a loose tasselled garment, allowing for lots of movement. + Shoulder/upper arm coverings, perhaps a sign of power or authority.
Nocturnal?
