What does an unmasked Tusken Raider look like?

I would like Pictures preferably, but descriptions are ok too.

Thanks. Tuskens Kick Ass!

 

I remember reading something once about how they were humanoid, but kind of looked like rats. ? Don't quote me on that though.

In response to your question...

First of all, a very important rule is instated in Tusken culture, hindering the ability of seeing an unmasked Tusken to an almost impossability, being that only their mate is allowed to know a Tusken's true appearance; an accidental glimpse of an unwrapped Tusken warrants a blood duel.

A few scientists have claimed the Tuskens have human origins, but the autopsies done on what little dead they leave behind has revealed cyborg eyes and other non-human characteristics.





Here is some additional information on the mystery surrounding the Tusken Raider, and why it is rendered as unknown when taking their unmasked form into consideration.


So dangerous are the Tusken Raiders that few xenobiologists are brave enough to venture close to them. What little information that exists on the nomadic brutes is often contradictory and incomplete. Indeed, there are those in official government positions that question the relative sentience of the Tusken Raider altogether. Alien-rights activists, however, believe that such claims are being made to justify the indiscriminate slaughter of the Sand People and the acquisition of their land.

The current leading theory is that the Sand People are the descendents of the Ghorfas, a society that built caves within the cliffs of Tatooine. Their civilization collapsed when offworld settlers disrupted their water supply, leading to their current nomadic existence.

Tatooine colonists had already established a number of communities on the desert world before running into the Sand People. One such outpost was Fort Tusken, northwest of Mos Eisley. The settlers inadvertently constructed their fort on land sacred to the nomads. The resulting Sand People attack was brutal. The name Tusken Raider, along with their fearsome reputation and the Sand People-outlander tension were indelible outcomes of that bloody day.
