The Marshmen are semi-aquatic humanoids from Alzarius. They are covered in leathery skin and have unusual facial features with tendrils and flaps. They have very similar cell structure throughout their body. They only come out of their home swamps during Mistfall every 50 years. They were somewhat aggressive towards the native Alzarians.
Biology
The most important ability of the Marshmen is their ability to adapt quickly to new circumstances. These changes can be from a mental point of view of a biological point of view. They can develop new plans and learn quickly, usually by copying other people.
The biological changes are much slower, which means they can become a new species in thousands of years. Because of these quick changes, they are closely related to the Alzarian spider (their ancestors) and the Alzarians (their descendants). Despite how close they are genetically, the Marshmen still fear the Alzarian spider and hate the Alzarians. (DW: Full Circle)
History
The Marshmen were responsible for an attack upon the original crew of a Terradonian Starliner that had landed on Alzarius. They quickly adapted into the form best suited to operate the Starliner, the form of the original crew. Over time they learnt read and repair the ship, these events were documented in the System files.
Some generations later another group of Marshmen arose from the swamp as Mistfall returned. They attacked the Starliner containing the original Marshmen (unknown to them they were their decendants).
They quickly over ran the whole ship and killed members of the crew. They were forced out when the ship was flooded with rich oxygen that inhibited their ability to adapt. The original crew of Marshmen left Alzarius in the Starliner. (DW: Full Circle)
