For some reason I have fun seeing how close my characters are to being Mary Sues according to online Mary Sue tests, and I wanted to see what scores you guys got as well. This test has 5 pages to it, so it's a little time consuming, but it probably wouldn't take as long as drawing a picture so I'm sure some people would be willing to do it. Here's the test: www.katfeete.net/writing/suestart.php
Here's the results for my character named Sandor from Sandor goes to school. I think the reason why he scores so high for "'Tis is Your Destiny" is because he's literally the god of prophecy, making him super overpowered in many ways. I'm satisfied with this result though. And here's the result for my OC named Kama from a series I plan to make in the future called "Kama the Thief." His story is so TRAGIC and EDGY lol! I guess I need to tone that down a little. Some of the "Beware the Monk of Cool" questions are a little unfair since some of the things I checked aren't a part of his character to make him look cool. I posted this result anyways since I didn't wanna post the same result twice, and this may have a good point tbh. I think his backstory needs to be a bit less ridiculous.

I tried this for Nyoto and let me tell you the results are great. I find this hilarious since she is literally the actual worst person. These tests aren't totally accurate since context is everything, as well as the test being reliant on stereotypes of Mary Sues.
And by that logic, I fucked up hardcore. Mostly in edgy backstory and 'cool' department (as I said, context is everything).

theres a rerow just as a character in general (though for one of the answers i took from them HERE. also the first ones hard because like not only was i comparing the oc to myself. but also the person and also comparing them with virs cause he made the character in the first place) heres the mu as judged from him in an unnamed story that has him at his oldest. about what he is currently. with all the cool life experience and shit thousands of years after rerow and frienders all died. (god those 13s. hes a big grey godguy with an asshole rich family (who he killed cause they deserved it hah.) and a now basically undead boyfriend who he admittedly should have let stay dead. (im glad they made up though from the whole. you let me die and then just dragged me back to life like you can just play around with me and i want to kill you (even though its impossible now) thing.) (i would do our third fictive the aforementioned boyfriend but... shima doesnt want to.)

This test gets messed up if you don't put in the gender and the name at the start since it gives you less points that way. Either way my characters still scored pretty low which is good imo. I only got points for mirror mirror because of gender or skin color. Monks of cool were mostly because of unique character traits like hair colors and body types. All of these characters have powers so they're all superhuman. Hyaku is my only character with a traumatic back story, and momma will always hate my characters with a passion.
Gremlon: Turned out to be especially "Tis your destiny" cause his powers kinda came from a curse which seems kinda sueish.
Score Breakdown Mirror, Mirror: Do I Know This Guy? 3 Beware the Monks of Cool: You Mean Plaid Is Out? 4 'Tis Your Destiny: Hey, Wanna See My Crown-Shaped Birthmark? 15 Oh, the Trauma: Healthy as a Horse 2 Momma Loves Me Best: Momma HATES Him! 0 Total: 24
Limarah: Turned out to be part of the monks of cool cause of her royalty and her appearance.
Score Breakdown Mirror, Mirror: I Love Her, I Let Her Go 4 Beware the Monks of Cool: Yo! 16 'Tis Your Destiny: I'm Destined For What? 9 (Destined to die) Oh, the Trauma: Healthy as a Horse 0 Momma Loves Me Best: Momma HATES Her! 0 (Even though she is Momma) Total: 29
Hyaku: Turns out to be my most sue character cause of her uniqueness, choosing her own name, and backstory.
Score Breakdown Mirror, Mirror: Do I Know This Guy? 2 (It gets 2 even if I don't check anything) Beware the Monks of Cool: Yo! 11-13 (I took the test several times) 'Tis Your Destiny: I'm Destined For What? 7 Oh, the Trauma: Angst R Us 16 Momma Loves Me Best: Momma HATES Her! 0 Total: 36-38
Vitiviti Vikikivi was too difficult to take the test with.

Did it for my boi Panna
Score Breakdown Mirror, Mirror: Do I Know This Guy? 3 Beware the Monks of Cool: You Mean Plaid Is Out? 6 'Tis Your Destiny: Plain Joe 0 Oh, the Trauma: Can't Complain 5 Momma Loves Me Best: Momma HATES Him! 0 Total: 14
I feel like he's bland now, lol!!
There's defiantly some sueish stuff in there though, like how I think he's the coolest thing ever. Oops.

lol this was fun I did a few of my kids~ Lanthe is only a little like you. She is not at all cool; in fact, she thinks cool is a temperature reading, and when she says "Oh, I just put on whatever old thing's lying around," she means "on the floor, where I threw it last night - but I turned the underwear inside out first." There's never been anything special about her that she could see; boy, is she in for a surprise. She's got no emotional scars to speak of. And she's gotten no slack from you. In general, you care deeply about Lanthe, but you're smart enough to let her stand on her own, without burdening her with your personal fantasies or propping her up with idealization and over-dramatization. Lanthe is a healthy character with a promising career ahead of her.
Score Breakdown Mirror, Mirror: I Love Her, I Let Her Go 5 Beware the Monks of Cool: She's The Anti-Cool 0 'Tis Your Destiny: Plain Jane 2 Oh, the Trauma: Healthy as a Horse 2 Momma Loves Me Best: Momma HATES Her! 0 (her mama hates her a lot c,: rip kiddo) Total: 9 | Shi is nothing like you. She may be popular, or she may not, but no matter what she's impossible to ignore; she stands out... just the way you always wanted to. She always knew she was special, destined for great things - and probably made sure everyone else knew it too. She's had more than her fair share of hard knocks, and probably spends more time than she ought moaning about it. And she's gotten no slack from you. You may have let yourself get a little too close to Shi. Maybe she's you as you wish you were, or maybe you're just afraid no one will like her and are trying to give her a free ride. Have some confidence in your writing! Shi is a good character. Give her room to be herself before you stifle her.
She has the most Tragic Backstory™ out of all my OCs, but besides that, I don't give her any special treatment?? Her high score kinda makes sense tho, since she's a witch
Score Breakdown Mirror, Mirror: Do I Know This Guy? 3 Beware the Monks of Cool: Yo! 17 'Tis Your Destiny: Hey, Wanna See My Crown-Shaped Birthmark? 13 Oh, the Trauma: Angst R Us 15 Momma Loves Me Best: Momma HATES Her! 0 Total: 48 | Aaralyn is nothing like you. She may be popular, or she may not, but no matter what she's impossible to ignore; she stands out... just the way you always wanted to. There's never been anything special about her that she could see; boy, is she in for a surprise. She's got no emotional scars to speak of. And she's gotten no slack from you.
In general, you care deeply about Aaralyn, but you're smart enough to let her stand on her own, without burdening her with your personal fantasies or propping her up with idealization and over-dramatization. Aaralyn is a healthy character with a promising career ahead of her.
Score Breakdown Mirror, Mirror: Do I Know This Guy? 3 Beware the Monks of Cool: Yo! 10 'Tis Your Destiny: Plain Jane 0 Oh, the Trauma: Healthy as a Horse 0 Momma Loves Me Best: Momma HATES Her! 0 (excuse me her mom loves her very much) Total: 13
| Mimi is suspiciously similar to you as you'd like to be. She isn't really very cool: she blends into crowds, she hangs out on the fringes at parties, and wearing shades after dark makes her run into things. There's never been anything special about her that she could see; boy, is she in for a surprise. She's come in for her share of hurt, but gotten off with minor damage. And she's gotten no slack from you. In general, you care deeply about Mimi, but you're smart enough to let her stand on her own, without burdening her with your personal fantasies or propping her up with idealization and over-dramatization. Mimi is a healthy character with a promising career ahead of her.
tbh I was expecting her to have the highest mary sue score, since I created her when I was 11 ;; Score Breakdown Mirror, Mirror: She's Got My Nose 17 Beware the Monks of Cool: You Mean Plaid Is Out? 4 'Tis Your Destiny: Plain Jane 0 Oh, the Trauma: Can't Complain 6 (i mean,,, she was experimented on until the point of death, but no biggy) Momma Loves Me Best: Momma HATES Her! 2 Total: 29

Here's what I got for Serenity:
I honesly was not expecting to get this score whatsoever because when you try so hard to avoid tropes, but at the end of the day, you comply with them.
And here's another girl, Bijoux Marcel for a different project I'm thinking of doing. Her last name is still undetermined, so Marcel will fit for now. Her name is Bijoux Marcel.

I did this for some of my fav characters that i have roleplayed as! Honestly i am not surprised by the oh the trauma one lol. Nicolas has seen some pretty messed up shit durring the apocalypse. I didnt have much to say about Illia, i never really roleplay with her that much. But most of her points came out from her apperience since her design is pretty eccentric Same with Illia, Bass' weak point is his apperience but also the destiny part. It might be cause he comes from a very weird looking race. Not surprised with this one either. Stella and I share quite alot of things in common And last but not least Alright, cant complain with this one either. Sixteens design is quite weird aswell. But so far he is my less mary sue character? Erm i dunno lol

Did a few more, lol
I went a little out of control making Sachiko really cool. I think it's fine though, the whole thing is subjective. and if the score was too low she'd be boring.
Okay real talk? There were a couple question I was kinda iffy about due to Vasuki being trans, such as him choosing him own name, something MOST trans people do.
