Humanity knew very little about the 456's biology and anatomy, as they only had contact with one member of the species, who remained within a nearly opaque gas, contained within a transparent chamber. The natural design of their body consisted of three "[[head]]s", connected to one body via three long necks, and they stood roughly a foot taller than [[human]]s. A brief glimpse revealed they had a very slender upper-torso with no arms visible, when a cameraman was sent into the [[456 ambassador]]'s life support tank ([[TV]]: ''[[Children of Earth: Day Four (TV story)|Children of Earth: Day Four]]''). The ''[[Torchwood: The Encyclopedia]]'' shows a close-up of one of the heads of the 456. They are ovular in shape, with a short trunk at the front and beady | Humanity knew very little about the 456's biology and anatomy, as they only had contact with one member of the species, who remained within a nearly opaque gas, contained within a transparent chamber.

Each head also possessed something akin to a thin dorsal fin sprouting from the back. | ||
