| [[Tarvu]]'s appearance is seldom discussed in the [[Tarvunty]], and when it is the descriptions are usually contradictory. For instance, in R*fl*cti'ns (V-VII, a45/15), he is described as "limber with large hands and feet, having long, flaxen blond hair, styled in the Baalbian fashion of knotted ringlets, with equine features and a certain kind of moustache". However, in Disagr*em'nts (PQ-PQQ 969/01-0.1) he is referred to as "a puffy, portly chap, ruddy, enstubbled and bald, with wrinkled cheeks and surly countenance" while H*lid'ys (Uh 44: Uh,1, 88.8) describes him as "tall and muscular, with one central eye, thick black beard, chestal tattoos and a prominent bulge at his loin suggesting two or perhaps three penises". [[Tarvuist]]s believe these discrepancies exist because [[Tarvu]] liked to change his physical appearance to adapt to different situations, for example calming an angry crowd or attracting a lover. But detractors and skeptics such as [[T.P.K. Henson]] claim that these varying descriptions indicate that [[Tarvu]] was actually many different people or did not exist at all. | [[Tarvu]]'s appearance is seldom discussed in the [[Tarvunty]], and when it is the descriptions are usually contradictory.
