HISTORY
The story of Sheriff Mardin of Nyberg was told by Arisia to Justice Leaguers Power Girl and Maya. Arisia wished to show how other women had served the Green Lantern Corps.
The widow of Sector 1253's Green Lantern, Sheriff Mardin first came to the attention of the Guardians of the Universe after Hal Jordan had visited Nyberg and recommended her for the Corps. Mardin's homeworld, Nyberg, was a peaceful world with humanoid inhabitants.
The Guardians asked Sheriff Mardin, a fifty year old widow, to be that world's Green Lantern. They assured her she would not be fighting space armadas of giant robots. The Sheriff rarely used the ring as she would get quite queezy when using the ring to fly.
Things changed as the sector's criminals formed an interplanetary conglomerate. Mardin has requested support from Oa, specifically the Green Lantern Corps Honor Guard. -Green Lantern/Sinestro Corps Secret Files #1
Sheriff Mardin was most recently seen offworld, as she and thousands of other Lanterns have fallen under the thrall of Krona and Parallax. -Green Lantern: Emerald Warriors #8
