  • Martians have fair, brownish skin, thin and slender wrists and necks, and six fingers. They also have large yellow coin eyes and soft musical voices. These Martians live on Mars, but call their planet Tyrr. They have adjusted to an atmosphere with thin oxygen. They can also swim, but do it out of leisure in their canals filled with sand. Martians see humans as large misshapen giants, and find it odd that humans have black hair and blue eyes. They also find their spacecrafts unnerving, describing spaceships humans use as round and alien. (February 1999: YLLA). They have taken to drinking green liquors from wine trees during festivities. Their children play with golden spiders commanded by telepathy. When Martians die, they melt and seem to dissolve into white ash, which is easily blown away by the wind. Chickenpox is deadly to them, as they die almost instantly from the chickenpox virus, leaving only ashy charred remains in their wake. All Martians have strong telepathic abilities. They are even able to project images unto others telepathically. Martians who are unable to control their telepathy are put in an insane asylum. (April 2000: THE THIRD EXPEDITION). These Martians can change shape, project images, and influence olfactory and auditory images through their telepathy. They can even access the memories of Earth men (August 1999: THE SUMMER NIGHT). Sometimes, a Martian's telepathy can foretell events (February 1999: YLLA).
