| - The Zanturans are the native sentient species of Mars, having a humanoid/squid like appearance. They stand upright, have elongated tentacles used for walking, with modified suction cups acting in place of feet/toes to stabilize walking on land. Their body is shaped like an upside-down bell, with legs coming out the bottom, an arms emerging from the top shoulder area. From there the bell-shaped head meets the shoulders on a minuscule neck. The head has large black eyes five centimeters in diameter, and a mouth full of teeth, used for chewing, biting, and grinding. The ear is generally kept within a pocket on either side of the head, which is then filled with water to equalize pressure and hear sounds with better definition. When a Zanturn emerges onto land, the pockets will open open, draining of water and filling with air, thereby allowing it to hear both in and out of the water with eloquence. Sometime between first contact and gained sentience, though probably closer to the former, the Zanturans became space-faring, and used this skill to hollow out a massive spherical cavity between the surface and the core of both Phobos and Deimos, leaving it half-filled with sea water, to form two space stations, of sorts.
