Because of their advanced age, the First Generation appeared to be made of darker colored flesh which tended to hang off them. The bones that they wore were their own original bones, from when they were Terris packmen.
When kandra were in their Homeland, all subsequent Generations prefer the form of a [[True Body]], which was a set of false bones that were crafted by a kandra artisan. Some True Body forms were quartz, and kandra showed off their True Bodies by creating translucent skin that allowed the stone to sparkle faintly in the light.{{
Kandra did not die naturally, with the First Generation as old as the Lord Ruler, exceeding more than thousand years. One of the kandra secrets referenced an unknown acid mixture, which was the only possibility to kill a kandra, otherwise they were essentially immortal.
Kandra kept religiously to a social mandate they call "[[Contract|The Contract]]", which is the system by which they offered their services to humans. In order to hire a kandra, one had to pay them in [[atium]].
There were other jobs for kandra to perform in the [[kandra Homeland]], such as the teaching and instruction of a child kandra, which was considered a prestigious job among kandra.{{
They referred to the Lord Ruler as the Father, because he was responsible for their creation. After his death, TenSoon advocated that [[Vin]] should be considered the Mother, because she was the one who had slain the Lord Ruler.{{book ref|mb3|11}} It is unknown if other kandra accepted this title for her or not.
