Description
Dejah Thoris is the princess of the Barsoom (Mars) city-state/empire of Helium in Edgar Rice Burroughs' John Carter series.
She is the daughter of Mors Kajak, Jed (chieftain) of Lesser Helium, and the granddaughter of Tardos Mors, Jeddak (overlord or high king) of Helium.
She is the wife of John Carter, an Earthman mystically transported to Mars, and subsequently the mother of their son Carthoris and daughter Tara.
She plays the role of the conventional damsel in distress who must be rescued from various perils, but is also portrayed as a competent and capable adventurer in her own right,
fully capable of defending herself and surviving on her own in the wastelands of Mars.
