Please provide a small sample post with original content in the style that you plan to write your character in (must be at least 3 paragraphs long and contain at least one line of dialogue):
I've been here for months, wandering the vast red graveyard that is Ma'aleca'andra alone. A thousand Martian years old I am, and my life has been nothing but a repeating cycle of pain in the recent orbits around the sun.
Once again, I found myself here, at the site where I buried my wife and daughter years ago. I've visited this place many times, and during each I feel such a great tightening in my soul. The weight of an undying sadness. It is not the only grief I carry.
Many times before I have attempted to reclaim some of the happiness I had felt as a husband and father. The latest was all too similar to my original plight, and as a result, I ran here.
To Mars. To Ma'aleca'andra. To the place of my birth.
My eyes wander off, to gaze at the blue orb that had once been my second home. I miss it greatly. I have family there, individuals that I care about deeply and who have adopted me as one of their own.
I realize now what a mistake I have made. I ran here to hide from my pain, when I could have... no.. when I
should have sought the council of those who care for me.
I must bid farewell to my home, for I, J'onn J'onzz, the Manhunter from Mars, am going home.
