Dejah Thoris is the daughter of Mors Kajak, the Jed of Lesser Helium, and granddaughter of Tardos Mors, the empires Jeddak. She has two children, Carthoris and Tara, by her husband, John Carter, and a granddaughter, Llana, by Tara and Gahan of Gathol.
Personality
Edit
While no fighter Dejah Thoris is no mere damsel in distress. She speaks eloquently and bravely for herself before the Tharks. Is ready to sacrifice herself to save her city and on at least one occasion saves John Carter's life. As she is leading a scientific expedition when she falls into A Princess of Mars it is safe to assume her royal duties extend further than looking beautiful and being kidnapped.
She demostrates her chops as an understanding wife by taking the assorted damsels who fall for John Carter under her wing and interesting them in the other fish in the sea. As Helium is an absolute magnet for adventurous young Red men it is the perfect place to hunt a husband.
