Mars People

The Mars People are characters in the Metal Slug series of run and gun games. Mars People also appeared in the fighting games SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos and Neo Geo Battle Coliseum.

Personalities
The personality of these baddies is almost impossible to read since they have a completely different culture than our own. But, what can be determined is that they are quite ruthless. Having said that, they are not stupid, and will ally with humans if they face a threat too great to handle themselves.

Powers

 * Martian Physiology - The martians physiology is completely different from ours. They are squid-like beings with several tentacles in the place of legs and arms. Their physiology makes them extremely agile and acrobatic. They can perform high-jumps and contortions. They are probably stronger than humans.
 * Explosive Teleportation - They can teleport themselves by exploding their bodies and appearing somewhere else.

Fighting Style
Their fighting style is extremely unorthodox since they use their tentacles, laser guns and even call other martians and UFOs.
