Character you would like to play (please include the color and font you plan on using to portray the character): J'onn J'onzz, the Martian Manhunter

Powers and Brief Origin (provide at least two sentences) If you copy/paste this information from another website, link back to it, or it is considered plagiarism and is not allowed. :

Martian Manhunter, also known as J'onn J'onzz and John Jones, is a superhero from the planet Mars and the last surviving member of his race. A martian holocaust killed his wife and daughter, nearly driving him mad, until he was brought to Earth in an accident caused by scientist Saul Erdel. His natural abilities include super-strength, super-speed, invulnerability, flight, shape-shifting, intangibility and telepathy. He has been a member of almost every incarnation of the Justice League of America. Although he holds great reverence for his homeworld, he has come to greatly respect his adopted world as well and protects it as his home. In his secret identity, to blend into humanity, he is a gritty hard-boiled police officer.

Group your character is aligned with (if applicable): The Justice League

I plan on playing J'onn, taking him in a direction that I've tried before, but not to this extent. I also plan on tying his story to an old, often unused villain.

Do you have an Instant Messenger? Which one, and what is your screen name?:

If you know how to post pictures, please provide a picture of your character you wish to be used for the Character Roster (if you do not know how, or do not have a preference, please say so and a default picture shall be picked for you):

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 yawn as I wake up, feeling refreshed and content. I lay awake in the bed for a moment, savoring the early morning silence. It’s a good morning, one of the few I’ve had lately. I yawn once more, stretching my muscles as I do. A quick glance around the room tells me that I’m alone in my bed. Curious, but not unexpected.

Sitting up, I shake the remaining sleep from my head and open the drawer in the bedside nightstand. Empty, as it should be. I chuckle lightly as I reach in and pop the false bottom off the drawer, revealing an open box of Chocos. I hear a sound from the kitchen that draws my attention.

Hmm, I think, sounded like something breaking. I pop two cookies in my mouth and replace the box before slowly standing. I approach the bedroom door, my form shifting into the form most recognizable to much of the world. Pressing my palm against the door, I push it open and enter the greater portion of the apartment.

“<Oh, J’onn honey, you’re up.>”* My wife, M'yri'ah says, cleaning up a broken plate and what appears to be bacon and eggs off the floor as K'hym, our daughter, looks on and giggles. M’yri’ah looks at me quizzically, her deep red eyes focusing on my upper chest. “<Are those crumbs? How many times do I have to tell you not to eat cookies in the bed?>”

Hey Watchman, just FYI, last season Superman kinda left Starro the Conqueror frozen solid in an Arctic-Breath Glacier on an uncharted planet, with at least three different species (Almerac, Raan, and a generic species of lizard-people) all putting warning beacons around it so they'd know of its escape. I know Darkseid's all-powerful and whatever and that sorta thing is small potatoes for him, but could you at least make mention of it?
 
Damn, it's been a long time since I've been around. Lots to catch up on!

But I wonder, I wonder... I wonder why my intuition is telling me to return with a pink ring...?

:)
 
Guy Gardner as a Star Sapphire would be quite a challenge. I'm not sure if I'm up to that. ;)
 
Don't say that's a challenge. That will only boost byrd's self esteem. We discourage such acts around these parts. :awesome:
 
Guy Gardner's a cheap ****e and should be treated as such :up:
 
Guy Gardner is a ginger and needs to be shunned!
 
Pshaw. With Byrd's size? You'll be walking fine in an hour. He's built like Gardner, which is to say about the girth of a toothpick and the length of matchstick.
 
If only you ****ers posted like you come up with insults, then this game would be moving along faster. :cmad:
 
And that's why you're dead to me....in this game at least. Still need you around in UDC.



Yeah, lord forbid anyone enjoy RPing so much that they post once a day!

:argh:
I'm waiting on you and wieg to make your move towards my boss in OU :cmad:
