Herdazians are brown-skinned, darker than the [[Alethi]], but paler than the [[Makabak]]i, and brown-haired.{{book ref|sa1|32}}{{book ref|sa2.5|3}} They are most similar in appearance to the [[Reshi]], to the point where they can be mistaken for them.{{book ref|sa2.5|7}} However, they are also one of several races on Roshar with [[singer]] blood in their ancestry, though it's not quite as apparent as it is among the [[Unkalaki]].{{wob ref|930}} The most visible sign of their heritage are their crystalline, slate-colored fingernails, which are strong enough to start a fire with a proper tool, and are sometimes described as reminescent of carapace.{{book ref|sa1|26}}{{book ref|sa2|43}}{{book ref|sa3|35}} Apart from that, they have a higher tendency to be asexual than other races without singer ancestors.{{wob ref|3400}}
Herdazians are rather tight-knit people. They have large families - a single person can easily be related to half the country - and will stick together, the bonds between them stronger than whatever country they happen to find themselves in.{{book ref|sa2|87}}{{wob ref|8262}} Majority of them seem to be [[Vorin]], though they practice their own variety of the faith, one that permits men to write.{{book ref|sa2|12}}{{book ref|sa3|50}}
Herdazian language belongs to the Vorin family, much like Alethi and Veden.{{wob ref|3977}} There are numerous terms in Herdazian to refer to a person without using their name, like ''gon'', ''mancha'' and ''gancho'', all of which seem to have slightly different meaning. ''Gon'' appears to a generic term; [[Lopen]] uses ''mancha'' exclusively when talking to [[Lunamor]]; and ''gancho'' seems to be a casual way to refer to one's superior.{{book ref|sa1|32}}{{book ref|sa2|12}}{{book ref|sa3|29}}▼
Herdazian cousine uses mostly variety of shellfood, as well as flatbreat.{{book ref|sa3|13}} [[Chull]] head is considered a delicacy.{{book ref|sa2|12}} The most famous Herdazian dish is [[chouta]], fried [[Soulcasting|Soulcast]] meat tighly in flatbread and topped with sauce, though sometimes the meat is replaced with shellfood.{{book ref|sa2|46}}
