Brief (around 300 words) personality outline of your character:
Megan is an incredibly passionate person just breaking out of her soft and timid shell for the first time. She likes puppies and kittens and sunshine and happy things, eternally positive and refusing to give in to anger and revenge fantasies, even against the humans who slaughtered her parents.
Although she is naive about culture and social graces due to being shut away from most of the world since she was a tiny, she is fiercely intelligent and determined underneath the gaps in her knowledge of the world she is living in. Basic values about life and hard work come easy to her and she has taken on large and personally difficult challenges multiple times for the benefit of others.
On top of all of this though her inexperience gives her a sweet and childlike demeanor most of the time. She takes her happiness from appreciating simple things and trying to see the good in everyone and the upside to everything.
Brief (around 500 words) history and background of your character OR link to a really good wiki page with their history. In either case, explain where they cut off from the timeline: Comic Vine's Outline on Miss Martian M'gann is being brought out of her timeline from the end of the Terror Titans storyline, the very beginning of the Homecoming arc when everything was still okay. She's just recently returned to the Titans after infiltrating the Dark Side Club to free other heroes.
Sample post (just a general, everyday, puttering-around-the-ship post; please include a snippet of dialogue):
M'gann had expected to be more homesick.
Certainly she'd spent the first few days in the Sensorium drinking in the beauty and comfort of an artificial Mars, then an artificial bedroom like the one she had had in Titan's Tower. She stopped just sort of artificial parents, too afraid of what it would be like to make the words come out of her her mouth...
But today instead she had come up to the observation deck, staring out the massive portal at the nebulous whorls of the bleed beyond the glass. It was easily the most beautiful thing she had ever seen...
Sprawling back on the squishy couch M'gann held her hand up to the light of the window, idly trying to watch the flow of the color outside and alter her skin-tone to match it with partial success. Coming out of the pod her powers felt stifled, like cramped muscles in need of stretching.
"I wonder what it's made of?" she murmured to herself, getting up after a long few moments and moving as close as she could to the window, stretching out her fingers to touch the glass. "Maybe someone knows, I should ask." She paused. "Oh. Right. Stacy, what is it made of?"
"A lot of things." Stacy's soft motherly laugh washed over her, making her feel warm and safe. "I don't know all of them, but I'm sure the media library could tell you."
"There's a library?" M'gann's face lights up and she all but skips as she follows Stacy's directions to the right room. Maybe there would be fun books to go with the learning books!
If the character has magic, mutant, or otherwise metahuman abilities, please explain what they are and outline EXACTLY how they function: The comicvine page on M'gann outlines her abilities better than I ever could, but in brief she can shapeshift, fly, fire energy beams from her eyes, become incorporeal and phase through objects. She is also super-strong and invulnerable to most attacks on the level of Superman. If injured she can regenerate and reassemble her body. She is also a Class 4 telepath, capable of entering most minds without being detected, implanting suggestions and instructions in others' heads, shutting out any telepathic invasion by others and generally sensing others' thoughts and feelings easily. M'gann does have a code of ethics about her mind-reading though and knows that it's considered rude to browse someone else's mind.
She... really is very ridiculously powerful, yes. I promise not to information mod. ^^; All of M'gann's powers are standard issue for her race and part of her biology so I don't think anything on Stacy would interfere.
Non-superhuman special abilities of note: Bottomless well of positivity, excellent at Little Big Planet and Mario Kart.
