History

The Tharks were a tribe of Green Martians consisting of four armed humanoids that were native to the world of Barsoom.

Originally, their capital was one of the many cities left behind by the Orovars and one of their most important settlements. This was until the Orovar died out whereupon a large coalition of Green Martians came to take it over and used it as the basis for the name of their horde.

Overview

In appearance, the Tharks were a tribe and kingdom of Green Martians that lived on Barsoom.

Their name came from the deserted city of Thark that came to be occupied by their ancestors long ago.
