Description

more of the inhabitants of mars in the 101st century.

Left to right:

Martian Canal Traders:

A group of octopus uplifts that became a major merchant empire in the martian canals and Valles Marineris sea. The one depicted is wearing a surface survival suit so they don't dry out on land.

Cydonians (lower and upper):

A culture of human martians native to the cydonia region. Famous for their giant "face of mars" monument/city, created in the likeness of an ancient myth about the mountain. The cydonians themselves embraced the appearance of these mythical aliens first as a rejection of terran culture following the martian wars of independence. It soon became a defining part of their identity. The upper cydonians look like the average martian with the addition of green skin. Lower cydonians are much like the olhab martians, choosing to live in underground cities. The Lower Cydonians have large dark eyes, small noses, no hair and grey to blue skin.

Tharsan Ranger:

A tribe of highly adapted survivalists in the tharsan mountain range. The tharsans have ultra strong muscles and can jump up to 6 meters in the air. They are typically found in large nomadic clans using low tech colonist habs repurposed as yurts. The tharsans are fiercely independent and territorial, they have on many occasions defeated more high tech invaders unfamiliar with the terrain.
