Okay I'm writing a story and I want to see what you think about the main character. She's death's (Hades's) daughter and a living flame. Her story takes place in an upside down univers which means anything can happen, because everything affects it. Angel(the main character's name) basically got killed by the dark lord and gets presented with a deal with death my her father, Hades, that basically consistented of two choices 1. Don't take the deal and just die, that's it, the end. OR 2. She could accept the deal with death, get awesome powers and come back to life, she takes the deal.......and subsequently almost loses complete control of her powers and is only stopped by the people who are supposed to help her out. She does have pretty good looks, but if anyone, exspasly males, try to get close to her just because of her looks she'll beat the heck out of them. She does kind of have a royal background, but she got literally all of her memories erased about that and that memory problem can and does comes back and bites her in the but.

The God of Death is Thanatos, not Hades... :/
But great storyline! -
Actually, in Percy Jackson, (first book), it clearly states Hades is the god of death. Unless I misread. This isn't to be taken to offense DarkNyx96, I just wanted to put that in so that Angelic25 knows it could be either or. I just wanna try to spread a little hope!

1% clich. YAY! She really isn't at all. I spent quite a lot of time working out kinks in my old story, off of a site that was kind of like this, then it was soooo clich, I just quit that story and wrote it about a side character. It was originally about these two kids, who for some reason want to escape, who travel to the Dark, where they meet this girl. All of the people in the Light had talismans, which held a part of them, and this one girl's were her eyes, which were glass. It was SOOO a play off Eragon, so I quit it and wrote about the girl who they met. I still haven't determined her name, either Inna, Ravena, or Ali, but having it be Ali wouldn't work because another character's name is Alistair.

I got 15%!! my hero is a spunky rebel from liverpool. she is intelligent,sarcast ic,funny and is a troublemaker. But is still sensitive,naive and is actually a 'secret' introvert. She does normal hero stuff, like saving the world and all that jazz. her parents are actually alive,which at dark times is unfortunate. Her main cause of her problems isn't the cliched prophecy or the villain its her overbearing mother that guilt trips her and at times neglects her. Did i mention she's only 14?

31 percent. my story is about a trained spy that has a crush on a very very very HOT girl and he tries to spy on her and the supporting cast tries to help him stay undercover so she won't know also he has to keep it secret from his parents, a rival crusher(not a spy tells strait on), and a dangerous gossip reporter for the triple c

So I got this story about a half werewolf half Black-Eyed-being ('Blackeyes") and was kinda forced into going to some supernatural legion by her father (evil mentor) and brother. Her mother got killed in the proces and her sister was taken hostage. If Kalypso, the main char., did anything that wasn't good for the legion, the sister got harmed.
So, after years of training, Kalypso nearly became a Weapon Master, a rare, skillful warrior that can use nearly EVERYTHING as weapon and a great strategist. But she's confronted with one last test: Infiltrating the enemy's highest training HQ. So she does just THAT, along with a back-up team. But she falls in love with this high-ranked army cadet and things start to spin out of control.
Her love, being the enemy, got REAAAALY angry when he found out (duh) and tried to kill her. He couldn't, Kalypso burned down the entire place and left, finally entering the Legion.
Years later, the two met again, on the battlefields, both graduated to high ranks. Army versus Legion. So there's a click about demons being bad and ruling 75%, but that was a lie. The 1st Legion (demon side) was, along with a few other Legions, driven back to about 30% and Kalypso had to make sure it didn't get defeaten, otherwise it'd mean the end of the entire MilkyWay.
So the Army (angel side) was the bad guy side.
While Kalypso is skilled and nearly undefeatable, she's defeaten multiple times. If it weren't for her allies and her own magical skills, she'd be dead by the beginning of the story :)
I basically wiped out the clichs of:
Demons being bad guys
Darkness ruling
Family is Always good
(All) crushes are the MC's aid
Other cringy fairy tale clichs
Now I have a 33% clich on it! Y^^Y-
Lemme get out the autocorrected words:
...So there's a click about demons being bad...
"Click" should've been "clich"
...Weapon master, a rare, skillful warrior that can
"Warrior" should've been "Warrior class"
...a 33% clich on it!...
"Clich" should've been "Clich"And also, every demon/angel/god/immortal being has a place in the MilkyWay. Really high-ranked Legionnaires and Soldiers would be black holes and massive stars, while other (mortal) minor beings would be (simple) planet-like thingies.

Rather that test my own characters, I've been testing others from favotite book series of mine. Harry Potter just scored a 47%...ouch.
Thou gh it's still much better than other character I could name...

Darnit, GoToQuiz! I want to delete this quiz, but the site won't let me!
Anyway, major creator backlash here. These quizzes are horrible. Don't take 'em. Really, don't. I don't know what I was thinking when I made them. *shakes head sadly*

15%, not bad. I guess I did deliberately start with the idea of a particularly unusual heroine undermining the more usual dynamics of fantasy.
Munin1 -
I got 13%! That's good, considering I spent a lot of time working on my heroine. About 2 months to work out her life. So worth it and I can't wait until I can start on my book properly!
LadyFen1 -
I want to know which fantasy books you got these from...I think one of them was Eragon. I like cliche stories. They're dramatic.
-
I love your quizzes! They are totes accurate and I'm actually doing a whole lot better than I thought I would!
LinxLady1 -
Your hero is 61% cliche. 61%
Your hero is rather cliche. But it's not too late to fix him or her up a bit! Give the hero a strong personality of his or her own and you'll be doing fine!

Another amazing quis. :D
My hero is 22%. I actually have a hero and a heroine that I have to score. But I just used the average of both.
-
Thanks, guys.
And if anyone wants to know, my villain scored poorly. Hey, the main reason I made these tests is so I can test my own stories!
Sherlock1 -
The site won't let me delete my own quiz? Inconceivable. Is there any way to delete or suspend this?
Sherlock1 -
I got a 1%. LOL. I guess my hero isn't very clichd. Actually, the real hero(ine) is his wife but you don't find out about that until the very last chapter. And she's more of an anti-hero(ine).
mlapolla1 -
Please disregard these tests. Major creator backlash here! I no longer agree with most of what I put. (I would delete them, except for some reason I'm not allowed to.)
Sherlock0 -
Agreed, they're the best! I'm bookmarking them all!
-
46% I don't thing my character is that much of a cliche but then again I guess he sort of is. Cool test
S5421 -
what is so bad about being original?
-
28%. Awesome! That's so cool!
-
This is an amazing quiz! Thanks for the good work!
-
Agh, am I absent-minded! I meant to post that under the villain meter.
Sherlock1 -
My character is called Crystal and she's a little ball of rage tbh
-
Ha, 25%! My hero's a LOT more cliche than that!
