So there's this thingy that everyone here should do called the Mary Sue test which basically tells you if your character is a boring, clichéd and unoriginal piece of shit based on a number of questions and a simple scoring method. (Read more about Mary Sue's here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Sue)So here's the test: www.springhole.net/quizzes/marysue.htmRety got a 4 woop woop. Also, please don't lie about what you get if you got a high score, be honest, or just don't post it at all.

Brianna- 26 hee hee
"Some definite Sue-like tendancies here. A little polishing might be in order to put original fiction and RPG characters back into the balance, especially if Kirking is involved. Fanfiction characters should probably have some work done. "
Probably because she has a troubled past and weird eyes

I remember doing this test for Ice once Before I got a -3, so I decided to redo the thing and see if I missed anything that might have made him so completely un-mary sue that its mary sueish. I did, and answered truthfully to everything I found. I'm actually not sure if this is a good thing

That means it's not Mary Sue at all, but a little on the boring side. and by that I mean not incredibly fantastic. For instance, Rety is technically just a normal human without any real interesting things about him as a person, so he scored very low.

Most probably got a 15, mostly because "Do you wish you were this character" questions were hard to answer. Banana got a 27, same reason metal got a 26, but also the fact that rich guys in suits go for her.

I hope you don't mind me saying but I sort of expected that Honestly? I expected higher. Gunny's a 37. (I was being harsh, apparently, as Shackles gave him a 16) ALSO: Ice, your character is not a vampire. You shouldn't have answered that question, therefore you're at least a 0.

I got 16 with Cutlass, and I wanted to make sure that my score wasn't that low because I was biased towards adding/subtracting points in favor of my own character, I had Grent do Cutlass too and he got the exact same score.
I'm afraid of doing Shackles because I know 90% of the things about him are clichés.
E: Actually, Shackles got a 33. Not as bad as I expected, but I guess he'll need work at some time or another.

I dearly hope everyone 1.20 (question 20 on part 1) as "yes".
Otherwise you're all dirty liars. (at least, those of you with human or vaguely human characters - no calling your character that's a blatant human "not a human/humanoid" just so you can get out of this)

Unrelated: Malice got a 64 in my book. Just saying.

(at least, those of you with human or vaguely human characters - no calling your character that's a blatant human "not a human/humanoid" just so you can get out of this) Why would we all answer that question as yes? That's a pretty silly thing to say. Loads of people's character's look pretty human but aren't human. One of mine is a distinct seperate species, and both could well count as other species being from some other dimension. Rety must be some kind of other species because humans don't have ropes for arms. Malice clearly isn't a human, nor is Balto, Osart, the Demon Twins, Spike or even 2/3 of your own characters, yet they all looks very close. The question is not "does your character have special powers" but "does your character not have any normal weaknesses for their species", and in the vast majority of cases the answer is no. People are still vulnerable to being stabbed, punched, burned or cut into bits. The unnatural durability is from suspension of disbelief and a feature of the setting, rather than the characters themselves. If everyone was exactly as breakable as a real person, this would be a very boring website. The damage resistance is not actually a superpower owned by most of the characters.

Everyone here should be clicking the box on No. 63. Now that's a generalization I can agree with! Yeah, pretty much everyone's main is going to be a little bit of a Mary Sue just due to the nature of SPB.

The thing about this test is that for me personally is Kromax is so underdeveloped and only really is just me with a different face, I think some of you are the same, you can realize that your characters aren't really great because you never tried to make them developed, they were just tools.
That said, I got a 56. God fucking damn it.

Honestly, I figured it'd be one of those question types I just mentioned.
