Toma are large animals with brown feathery fur. They stand on two legs. In the manga continuity, they have horse-like hooves. In the anime continuity, they have bird-like clawed feet with three toes. They have small vestigial wings. Toma have long necks with a very small head consisting of a beak-like mouth and small round eyes, one on each side of their heads. Their tongues are skinny and very long. They have a long tail with a scaly underside and a rounded end with spiky protrusions on the top. | Toma are large animals with brown feathery fur.
