Goriath's body is somewhat pear-shaped, his face taking up most of it. This makes his physique similar to a [[Waddle Dee]], though his feet and arms are more defined. His fur covers his body, which is largely white in tone, though it has red, spiky accents near the hands. His skin is tan, and his face resembles that of an ape, with baboon-like red marks on his cheeks. He also sports a long beard and a similarly long tuft of hair on his head, which is gray in color. | Goriath's body is somewhat pear-shaped, his face taking up most of it.
