Eaters
creatureShamed Obsidian cannibals wearing blood-matted white bear pelts and ursine skull helmets, pale muscled arms greased, human bone breastplates, iron blades sewn into hands, filed black teeth, ritual scars and white face paint; associated sea creatures pale maggot-white snail-shaped with needle-toothed mouths.
The Eaters first emerge in Morning Star as a terrifying Obsidian tribe of ritual cannibals, their grotesque appearance and sea-creature allies marking them as one of the most primal and feared factions on Mars. Their introduction establishes them as a wild card in the escalating war between Golds and the rising rebellion, embodying the raw, untamed power of the Obsidian people. Across the series, their role expands from isolated marauders to strategic allies whose brutal customs and loyalty become pivotal in the larger struggle for freedom.
