Their face is tender, clean, and dotted with tiny furs. Their head-hair is gelatinized and shaped into a sharp rectangle. Their eyes are light and wide. Weird clothes hang about their narrow frame, and their fingers fidget in patterned asynchronicity. Occasionally they beam a grin and freeze their motion before resuming as if nothing happened.

They also seem to enjoy chanting in response to things they hear. They are notable for their "rectangle hair", which is apparently inspired by the "big sails" grown by "prehistoric lizards".
Neek appears to be friends with Shem -1, and describes hugging them and "dragging" them to the library to read to them. Hortensa says that she has instructed Neek "since they were a lil' cub", and describes them as "...a strange one! Bouncey. Full of smiles. But brilliant in their own way." She also mentions that Neek has authored at least one book, "Spiderwebs on Hoversleds", and claims it is her favorite book.
