There are many examples of their relics and sonic books throughout the cosmos and from time to time occasional survivor sub species.ĭespite the similarity to mankind this is still an alien species. Disease from expeditions from Earth wiped many of this once great race out by plague. Their biology is cross compatible with humankind and this is one of the factors that led to their downfall.
These are a gentle people with some warriors among them. Many stood under six foot, and are of roughly human genetic stock there is speculation of ancient astronaut seeding but this is only myth and rumor. The race are delicate, light skinned, highly psionic and quite logical. This ancient race had colonies throughout the cosmos but declined about 20,000 years ago. The martians are a light skinned and desert dwelling ancient race that originated on Mars. So lets do a quick work up for Stars Without Number. Perhaps there are more out in the universe. Yet I can't help wondering about the Martians as an actual race? Spender (who always has had deep misgivings about the mission) then goes on a killing spree to avenge the destroyed Martian civilization and manages to shoot all astronauts except Parkhill and Wilder, who shoots Spender in the chest before he has the opportunity to kill them as well. He leaves the rest of the landing party to explore Martian ruins. Spender loses his temper when Briggs starts dropping empty wine bottles into a clear blue canal. The men, except for the archaeologist Spender and Colonel Wilder, become more boisterous. The scientists find that all of the Martians have died of chickenpox accidentally brought from Earth by the first two Zeus crews. The crew discovers five ancient cities in the vicinity of the spacecraft, one of which apparently was inhabited only a few weeks ago. Wilder himself with five other astronauts (Spender, Parkhill, Briggs, Cook, McClure) as subordinates. A third mission, "Zeus III", lands on Mars in June 2001.
