So What do you guys think about this. Do you think they look like the evil Quori. I think they look like the ancients form stargate.

Which images are you talking about?

If your talking about these, I can see your point. Looks like Anubis from Stargate.

I'm sorry, I misunderstood. There are three Quori shown in Secrets of Sarlona.

That one previous is the Hashalaq

Well the Kalashtar Quori spirits don't look like anything. They absorbed themselves into what would become the Kalashtar.

The Quori of Dal Quor look like creatures of nightmare since you know they ARE nightmares. I don't think the ones that rebelled and became the kalashtar looked any different at the time. They thought differently than them but there's no reason to think they were entirely different.

If a Kalashtar were somehow able to speak to a physical embodiment of their quori ancestor it might look however they expected it to look, or however it wanted to look or it may have the same terrifying appearance which could be quite a shock if they were the sort to judge a book by it's cover.

I certainly wouldn't go the humanoid column of light route with them though.

Yeah, their original forms would have been all evil looking, covered with eyes and pinchers and everything else, just like all the others.

Same race, same appearance.
Rather like the Tok'Ra from Stargate. Just because they were good guys doesn't mean they weren't fanged snakes that bore into your head and take control of your brain. They just ask permission first.

I agree with Edy, they are same race as the others. Now in another age when there was a different ruler, they might have possessed different bodies. Probably once their "new age" comes the new quorri might be different also. Making all the surviving kalashtar continue to be ugly. Plus that is why a kalashtar is able to get the quori nightmare prestige class, and take all those feats of scaring which the inspired can also take.

Of course the child born to two Kalashtar parents will be a Tom Cruise clone:P
