Each leg ends in a multi-toed foot. The legs are attached at the base of the torso and are radially symmetric. There are two arms; each have joints analogous to the humanoid elbow and wrist, and each arm ends in a multi-fingered hand.',
        'interestingFact': 'Tholian biology requires high temperatures around 480 Kelvin (207 °C, 404 °F). They can tolerate lower temperatures for a brief period of time; if they are exposed to temperatures around 380 Kelvin or less, their carapace will fracture. This is painful or distressing; a Tholian subjected to such a temperature regime can be coerced to cooperate. In temperatures even lower, a Tholian will freeze solid and shatter.' ,
