There are two races of Aimians: '''Dysian Aimians'''{{book ref|sa1|54}} and '''Siah Aimians'''.{{book ref|sa1|i|5}} They are non-human{{qa ref|977|179|Are there non-humans on Roshar?|date=2012-09-29}} sentient beings who possess a form of immortality.{{17s ref|topic|4875|Interesting note on Axies|date=2013-12-17}}{{book ref|edgedancer|18}}
Aside from being immortal, both Aimian races have the ability to magically modify their bodies, but to different extents. Siah Aimians, who are are characterized by deep blue nails and eyes, have been known to sculpt their bodies to temporarily suppress their senses (e.g. to avoid smelling foul odors), produce tattoo-like markings on their skin, or heal from injuries{{book ref|sa1|i|5}}. On the other hand, Dysian Aimians (who call themselves the ''Sleepless'') can do even more extreme modifications because their body is made up of many cremling-like creatures called '''hordelings''' that they breed to perform whatever function that they need. These hordelings can separate from the main body to act as remote agents
