DESCRIPTION: "...It had been Jaffa Storm's idea to have an all-Venusian corps of Middle-Swampers for his stron-arm work. Being outlanders and fairly savage, they had interest in two things only--food and fighting..." (The Nemesis From Terra by Leigh Brackett)

NOTES: Leigh Brackett's Venusians are basically humans who have adapted to the conditions on Venus. They have green skin and no aversion to water.

HISTORY: Brackett's Venusians, Martians, Terrans and Mercurans are all basically human with small differences, largely culture and skin color.
