ZIMTAEL They are not supernatural creatures. They are humanoid monkeys with green fur and purple skin. They have retractable claws on their fingers and toes. They have a fur-covered tail and it is about 3 feet long on average. They like mexican and oriental food and like milk and coffee, they are allergic to bananas. They may look like monkeys but it is a complete coincidence and they are not related to monkeys in any way. 203 arrived on various places on Rifts Earth one year ago. Zimtael are playful and sometimes play a minor plank, but they can be instantly serious when a situation demands they be so. On average they are a gregarious race, even if an evil alignment. They come from a distant planet that is mostly forest and ocean, though it has a few deserts, mountains, and plains.
