Kyledus Idealis, more commonly known as Kyleth or sometimes Kyld, is a sapient species native to northern Pelia, more specifically, almost exclusively to Kyldigard. Kyleth are bipedal cetaceans with many human-like features, with the notable exception of their bodily hair, or rather lack thereof. It is one of two extant species in the genus Kyledus, as well as its oldest historical species. Idealis is significant for being the world's most complex genetically modified organism, with its roots being traced back to Kethesite genetic evolution engineering experiments around 150-200 AR. A partially amphibious species, Kyledus Idealis are found mostly on land but will often spend large sums of time underwater. Kyledus Idealis has a sister species by the name of Kyledus Perampla, a giant variant of the former more commonly known as the Kitan (Garderruth: Eof [ɛɔf]).

Genetic Traits

Coloration

Due to being an ethnically diverse species, Kyleth have many different colorations, most of which reside in different parts of the country. Most Kyleth are a shade of black, white, or grey, with some variations of the species being pink or blue in skin tone.

Size

Most subspecies/ethnicities of Kyledus Idealis are between 50 to 66 inches in height, from their feet to their head, and slightly shorter when measured from head to tail (a waning traditional Kyldigardian method of measurement). The Kyleth head is comparable in proportion to that of the average human head, with the Kyleth head being about two centimeters longer at the back of the skull, and with Kyleth jaws being more effeminate and round than the average human jaw.
