Do character designs have to be visual? Can they be the lack of visuals?
Khanzumers have such a well-crafted backstory of mystery surrounding them. We don't know what they look like. We don't know where on Oddworld they live. All we know is that they're the ignorant consumers that have unwittingly given the Industrialists total control over Mudos. Truthfully, the entirety of Oddworld's events revolves around the Khanzumers. Mudos' shores give way to a sea of apathy, where none of Abe's heroic tales and triumphs are heard of or cared for.
That's not much to work by, and it makes them feel very alien. No doubt it's how citizens in third-world countries feel about us.

Khanzumers are a class, rather than a species. Like Industrial or Native.
