My Mary Sue/Gary Stu Test
Posted: Thu Oct 31, 2013 8:41 pm
One day I got bored so I decided to make up a test that would judge whether or not the character that you created would be a Mary Sue. If you don't know what a Mary Sue or a Gary Stu is please feel free to look it up.
Please be patient with the fact that this test is a little long-winded, and please forgive any MILD LANGUAGE, I went through and 'edited' some language but I probably missed some things, if there are some things that are little 'ify' please tell me and I'll get right on it. I'd give this test a solid PG to PG-13 rating.
I also made this test about four years again and have been tweaking it ever since. Mostly the point system because I want to be sure that the points are fair. So far I think it's okay.
Please tell me what you think!
