Mars
Mars is a hilly red planet. It is the only planet with its own caves, which are very wide but low. It is the only place where Martians spawn.

There is only one mob native to Mars, the Martian. These are hostile mobs that spawn in dark places. What is unique about them is that they can be traded with. To trade with one, right click it with the item to offer. Here's a full table of their (current) trades:
| Item to Offer | Trade |
|---|---|
| Iron Sword | Iron Sword (effectively fixes it) |
| Iron Ore | Iron Ingot |
| Reinforced Plate | Tungsten Ingot |
Martians have a 1 out of 64 chance to spawn with the name "The Zerix". This is a reference to one of the developers of the addon.
