The Na'vi are a race of extraterrestrial humanoids who live on the moon of Pandora.
The indigenous Na'vi are, on average, about 3 meters tall, with smooth, striped cyan-colored skin, large amber eyes, and long tails. Their bodies are more slender than humans.
Cloth is the basic garment worn by all Na'vi. Clothes appear to also show the ranking of one in the hierarchy of a clan. For example, the Omaticaya clan leader, Eytukan, wore a garment made of precious materials in comparison to a simple clothing piece worn by other clan members. Accessories are added to a Na'vi's attire as he or she moves up in the clan hierarchy. The Na'vi also live in various territorial clans across Pandora.
Na'vi have a queue at the top back of their head which hangs down to, or below, the waist, while avatars have queues at the base of their skull. The queue is a group of nerve endings that are protected inside a braid of hair. While not adding to intelligence, it enables them to share a deep connection and also communicate telepathically with the Tree of Souls and any animals who have a similar nerve cluster. The Na'vi call it tsaheylu or "the bond". When two Pandoran organisms with nerve clusters similar to this engage in tsaheylu, they gain the ability to share memories and information. The Na'vi have a special trait that allows them to use the bond to feel as/what their mount does and enables them to move as one under the control of the Na'vi.
