MARTIAN SPAWN
THE SPAWNING: 8,888 On-Chain Martians
The Spawning distributes all 8,888 Martian Spawn NFTs across 3 parallel Colonies. Each Colony runs concurrently: you can switch between them and pull from any one.
The Spawning uses an INSTA-SPAWN credit system. Purchase 1–10 INSTA-SPAWN credits upfront, then use them instantly at any point during The Spawning. Credits don't expire.
Each credit = 1 instant mint from your selected Colony's queue. The next unminted Spawn in that Colony is yours the moment you click.
All wallets supported: Eternl, Lace, VESPR, Typhon, GameChanger, and any CIP-30 compatible Cardano wallet.
Olympus · Hellas · Tharsis: named after real Martian regions.
Each colony has ~2,963 Spawns including an equal share of rare types and Mars Relics.
👑 Animated 1/1: Only 9. Hand-animated frame by frame by the artist – original works, not trait rolls. The apex of the collection.
🕹 Interactive 1/1: Only 28. Unique hand-built playable scenes: your Martian lives in a little world you can touch, running entirely on-chain.
⚙ Metallic: 49. Forged from the rarest ore.
✨ Radiant: 50. Pulsing with Martian energy.
💀 Headless: ~197. Mysterious emergence from the depths.
🐉 Scales: ~596. Ancient Martian scale patterns.
🌋 Crater: ~1,594. Formed from Martian impact events.
👽 Settler: The core colonists. ~6,365.
A 1/1's tier outranks whatever skin it happens to wear, and the same ranking drives its strength in Mars Wars duels – an Animated 1/1 is the strongest Martian you can field. Third-party rarity charts score raw trait combinations, so they may rank things differently; ours reflects the artist's hierarchy.
250 Mars Relics are scattered across the 3 Colonies. Spawn a Martian with the 🪨 MARS RELIC indication and a Relic is instantly added to your account.
Use your Relics to pull prizes from The Crater Vault – a finite 250-card prize deck. One relic = one pull, and every pull wins.
The deck holds 250 prizes – click the 🪨 relic icon to see the full prize wall:
