Zarr is the name for a species of aliens created by the late American author Richard L. Tierney for his novel The Winds of Zarr.
Overview[]
Originating from the planet Zarr, from which they take their name, the Zarr are a fanatical, ruthless race who had conquered most of their home galaxy, Xentilx. In the distant past, the god Zathog made a pact with the Zarr, granting them the power to travel through time and space, and thus giving them the opportunity to conquer the entire universe, on the condition that they actively sought to free the Great Old Ones and oppose the Elder Gods.
Methodology[]
The Zarr's method of conquest is to first subdue their target planet through use of nuclear bombardment, then recruit indigenous collaborators to form a puppet government and overthrow any internal opposition.
Unique Abilities[]
The Zarr possess the ability to manipulate the weather; in ancient times this led the Native Americans of Earth to fear them as demons.
Trivia[]
- The Black Book of the Skull makes references to the Zarrians; this is an alternative name for the species.
