Martians

The Martians or Chirasthenians, are a race of bipedal aliens originally from planet Chirasthenos, and who give name to the Martianoid family of species.

Martians are violet-skinned, have a doubled ribcage with four arms and four breasts, with three ball-like fingers in each hand. Their eyes are vertical or very tilted. They have a very characteristic "lambdoid" or λ-shaped mouth. Martians can grow hair in the same way as Humans; hair colour is generally white.

Chirasthenians conquered Mars some time in the 22nd century, and Mars subsequently declared independence from Chirasthenos.

Conflicts are implied to have taken place between the Martian Republic and Colonial Earth. Presently, Earth hosts a significant populations of Martians.

Mars Martians speak a dialect of the original Chirasthenian Language. Earth Martians speak Grey.
