Actually see him unravel through the writing. He's a character I put hours of research into and developed for years to give him depth, I just hope it wasn't all for naught. Edgy as he may be, he's not that far off from many big name stars we know today, be they from our generation, or many since passed.

My OC got 23%. I honestly didn't know how to answer some of the questions, as the way my story works is a bit of a special case compared to the answers given. For one, my story, in a way, deliberately uses tropes such as "karma for the antagonist" or "edgy for the sake of being edgy" as plot points, as my oc, who is technically too morally gray to be considered good or bad, starts to become self-aware and realize the one-dimensionality of his world, and that's what drives the plot forward. I would really like some genuine feedback for my story, but I'm a bit unsure on how to explain it thoroughly, as it's pretty long.

Yeet. Kaydia Winterwood, she lives in mid-evil times and was an orphan since the start after her mother overdosed and her father was just some rando. She has terrible memory like, sure she's not Dory, but it's still pretty bad. She was one of a few orphans from the orphanage that survived after the 'Dragon Flayers', eight warriors said to defend the 'Last Ones' against dragons. She's 18 percent sue, and I have no idea why... sure she's not incredibly pretty, and she's asexual, but love is hardly important. My opinion anyway.

I've done this for a few of my characters, and this one is probably my lowest yet (19% for context) most of the answers were no, this character is based on me, her name is Blair Archambeau. she is a queen in a kingdom roleplay me and my friends do, her husband is named Arthur Blanche. she is known as the "Witch Queen of the North" to other kingdoms, but it's only rumored she can actually do magic
backstory in summary: she is the hundredth generation in a now-century old witch bloodline, magic is outlawed in the kingdom she lives in (her family is a Noble family), from a young age she was supposed to marry the prince to make peace between the Archambeau and Blanche families. she actually ends up falling in love with the prince. her mother, Armara, is not happy with this marriage from the start, and at their wedding, she curses the prince to slowly fall out of love with her daughter.
currently, they still love each other, but soon he'll start to love someone else and she will end up using her magic to take over the kingdom

I got a 8%, the Oc or M (dosnt currently have a actually name) comes from not of a slice of life kinda story so there pretty normal with a average life. The thing that is special about M is that they have a incurable disease were a flower started growing out there eye and the flower spreed more and more slowly killing them so by the end of the story they die So it's pretty much a angst filled slice of life slow moving story so 8% fells about right to me.

I got a 19%. I find that a little surprising because I thought it might be like... a 45% or maybe 60%. IDK!!! Anyways, my character's name is Johnson Taylor Adams. He has blue eyes, blond hair and freckles he sounds like he might be really attractive but he is not as good looking as you think because of his weird hair style (besides that he looks normal). He is my creepypasta OC and he is a human who doesn't have much friends, oh and he is also bisexual. His parents are not related to him because he was adopted. One day he was just walking with a friend with some Tim Horton's coffee in his hand, then he saw a man trying to kidnap a child. He then shoved his coffee into his friends chest (the coffee was hot) then ran over to stop the man. He got onto the man and was just trying to hold him down till the police came but he felt a weird urge... to kill him (he is wrong in the mind). Next thing you know, you see your friend on top of man beating him to death while you have hot coffee all over you. By the time the police got there the man was dead and John was fleeing from the scene. He got caught and had to answer some questions. Apparently his foster father was injured in some way and almost died in the hospital, that was blamed on John but they could not arrest him because they did not have enough evidence to do so (he did not do it... don't worry). After two mouths of being in prison he finally decided to end his life... he failed and was taken into a hospital. The power went out. There was a doctor at John's side, John killed him and left still in his hospital gown. John hid in an ally hoping not to get caught. It was raining hard (the reason for the power outage) and he just wanted everything to go back to normal but the only way he could do that is impossible... to make a deal with the demon! He prayed to a demon and about two or three days later (still in hospital gown) he woke up with a weird and painful feeling near his left temple, his fingers ached and he had

sorry it cut it off... here is the rest
massive black claws that ripped his lips open. Oh and one more cringy thing... he had a sharp tail rip through the skin of his tailbone (maybe you have not had the same thing as him... XD ). So I guess he is not completely human or demon now, he is a half demon (with a shuby wubby little unicorn horn ^w^ ). Anyways, I am gonna make the rest a bit quicker because I don't have much room left. He rolled on the ground to try and get the voice to stop. And it did, then one voice came and said "You want to be treated like a normal person again? Maybe have some more friends? I will help you because I know some people, but when you die you will not go to heaven... or hell. YOU WILL BE WITH ME!!!" (where is that... that guy who was talking was the prince of purgatory, so probably somewhere there. But wait and keep reading, there is a problem for the prince pretty soon) (I'm still too slow, sorry). Slenderman appeared behind John about 5 minutes after the weird voice and teleported him to the creepypasta hang out (IDK if it is a mansion or a cabin or ... IDK!!!). He became a proxy of Slendypoo and is not really getting along with Hoody (Brian) and EJ (Eyeless Jack). Oh and you know that problem I was talking about... well (IDK if it is true but) Slenderman makes it that his proxys can't die soo... no purgatory for John. Sorry that there was a lot here. I just like writing and sharing my OC's stories with other people. Thx.

23%. I'm not too surprised about this, noting that a few of the mary sue-esqe questions that involved looks I answered 'yes' to. I just think if you were to really look into my character's backstory, you'd sorta understand it more. The character I used was Tayami Ito, which was for creepypasta. Her backstory plays a huge part in her appearance, and I'd have to go into her entire backstory which would take too long to fully unfold.

I got 1%?? her name is Artemis. she is named after the goddess. she finds an undiscovered island with her friends who colonize it. she has same and paranoia. the people on the island each have a falcon that they gain a power/special ability from. her ability is to become her falcon. (a large gyrfalcon named strika) Hope your characters are nice! OH YEAH! and she is a bit violent with anger issues. She is condemned to fight in an arena after everyone finds out she killed someone. she then becomes the arena champion. her friend was the queen but turned against her from power.
-
Woah. That's the lowest I've ever known of. Also what's same?

17%! I just wanted to make sure, but I knew my OC wasn't a Mary Sue. This OC is the most depressing out of my other ones
My character is Kate Keller and she's 16 years old. Her past is quite frankly very tragic and suffers from PSTD due to her father and step-sisters death. Her father's death was caused because of her mother. Why? Well, her mother abused Kate when she was 12 and her father found out. Her father soon took Kate away from her abusive mother and took care of her. Her mother was enraged and planned a murder that would take place at Kate's 13th birthday on April 5th.

My oc is called Ryo. She is a fan character for DDLC. You can say she is kind of a jerk. She always carries her bat around. In the inside, she is scared, lonely, and sad, but she hides it with her rude attitude. She was in a store when she was 6, and there was a shooting there, but she was able to escape. Ever since then, she trained to become strong so she would never lose anyone again. She has black hair, her left eye is blue and her right eye is red. She has psychosis, but she hides it. She shares her true feelings, (not love feelings, she explains that she is scared, and sad, and she only confesses her love once) and every time she does she cries. (Spoiler) at the just Monika ending, she comes and swings her bat at her, and the reason she was alive was that she knew all along, so when Monika tried to delete her, she made a copy of herself.... and she got 35% marysue, and Im planning to make a mod out of her

TBH, i kinda expected 32%. My character is a 16 year old thats half fox and half human. I wouldnt consider him a Mary Sue, he isnt loved by everyone in the story, just a few. YES he has powers, but only like 2/3. Anyway, about my Oc, the Oc I used for the quiz was the second Oc I ever made, named Life, hes from another universe with an elemental power, earth. His (un biological) brothers also have different elemental powers.

Life sounds interesting.

21% Well, who would've guessed that a fast snake boi named Xenon would get pretty low... I based Xenon off of an SCP (I don't think many really know what that is.) That has immeasurable speed and resembled a large insect, though I changed the little file a lot. Added more weaknesses and changed him to be more snake then insect, and incredibly weak physically. Hope I deserve this score!
-
My non-fan-character Zuri got a 15%, likely due to how she hasn't been given many traits that fit into here.
She has deep blue hair and reptilian eyes, but those are normal for her species. She has massive physical strength (punch through buildings kinda strength), but there didn't seem to be anything to talk about that. Of course, to balance that out, the final villain she has to fight is crazy strong too.
She is a half dragon, something incredibly rare in this universe (only other one atm is her twin brother), but all that does is make her much faster to learn things.
Do you guys think she's a sue?
-
Give her some negavite things, like maybe a bad temper or a weakness of sort.

So uh, i have this OC Named Madison, SHe has the same middle name as me, her last name is Crystal. She has 6 sisters, which makes Madison the 7th. she and her sisters were born on a planet named Gamora. but then an evil entity named Hazmat came to her home planet and destroyed almost half of her home. it was just 5 weeks after Madison and her sisters were born, the king and queen(Madison´s mom and dad) had no other choice but to send madison and her sisters to earth, but only six made it. the last one (Who is named Nova) got kidnapped by Hazmat. as madison and her sister were about to land on earth, her three sisters landed in opposite directions. only Madison and her 2 sisters landed on the place together. 13 years later, when they turned 13, Madison and her two sisters, Shimo and Tsurai, realized they had magical powers. I´m too lazy to explain the rest of the story. my OC got 40% Mary-Sue.

14% okay! My oc is Genso Marrow, (hes a my hero academia Oc-) he has a good relationship with his parents and siblings, he has one sibling he doesnt see but thats because hes grown up. Hes 18, and a third year student in UA. Hes not part of the big 3 but is close friends with them. He has a speaking disorder which is a stutter, but doesnt let that get him down. Hes a bit stubborn, but thats only when fighting is involved, hes seen as nice and a bit shy, hes white and cant tan, he has red hair and dark red eyes, which he gets those features from his mom.

I got a 23%! My OCs name is Taiyo, after the sun. Basically he falls in the line of a family of golden dragons. The world mostly consists of man-eating monsters or dangerous creatures, and golden dragons happen to be one of the fiercest, hungriest monsters to trudge the planet. So when one is born, they are automatically deemed royalty. Though it is sad, because though golden dragons are strong, other monsters or monster-like humans will hunt these golden dragons for their golden scale and features. Lucky for golden dragons, they can turn into humans to deceive most people. Taiyo hasnt exactly mastered this trick, so his horns and tail still show, which is why he stays inside most of the time.
His father is king of the country, (theres many more countries with different culture and beliefs) so its natural for Taiyo to become king after his father dies. Their relationship is not smooth at all, as they barely see each other, sometimes going weeks without contact. The king hires tutors, maids/butlers, and anything that can substitute himself with this role. Taiyo must be perfect, strong, trained, and smart. The king expects nothing less of this. Taiyo is also very handsome, as golden dragons tend to be, and hes extremely tall. When in dragon form, these guys are taller than buildings, and can eat families in a second. Hes also slightly feminine, as he has to wear elegant clothes, makeup, and jewlery.
Sadly, Taiyo cant master the human technique, isnt super smart, and feels extremely lonely. The friends his father hires are only there for the money they receive after caring for Taiyo, which makes him start to not trust anyone.
Taiyo then meets a teenager who is the same age as Taiyo, who was hired by his father. Though, the two seem to hit it off instantly even though Taiyo is a pretty shy guy. Anyways yada yada, Taiyo realizes he likes this guy. They end up having sex but Taiyo realizes that hes going to be a king and he needs heirs.
It turns out this guy was jus
-
Oops I went over the character limit
-
Well anyways it turns out the guy doesnt actually like Taiyo and he tells the king so that Taiyo gets in trouble. Taiyo basically loses all trust in everyone.

I did a few characters I have, and they only got like 15-20% on all. I did one joke one which was putting all the marysue stuff together, and got 68%. Hilarious.
My character I first did was a dutch angel dragon named Angelica, shes a personal sona and just a bratty dragon who is occasionally nice.
Im writing a story on my characters (besides Angelica) I hope to publish and just wanted to make sure they werent marysues.
-
I did it and got 100 lol
-
-
I got 17%! Yayyy!
My character has pink hair, but their world is a fantasy world and unnatural hair is normal. She has brown eyes and is training to be a mage. She has a very high metabolism and can barely gain weight for muscles, so shes very weak. But for some reason the more I describe her, she seems more like a Mary Sue. (Btw shes an original character not from a fandom)
-
Also, her backstory is kinda tragic, because her mom was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, and while she was away, her dad didnt abuse her per se, but more of like, neglected her. Since she was so little and young, she starved due to her dad off somewhere drinking, so that led to her having stomach surgery due to her stomach eating itself

6% I knew there was something lacking with his character. Well, he's a human who lives in an alternate Earth, and he has this plain ability to alter his flesh form into a statue/alabaster. It's very weird and it's not something that can blend in with most artist OCs and that's why I've been struggling making friends because he was rather dull. He has also been harsh towards his father before he passed away, and obviously regretted it. He had a sister but however passed away as she had cancer. He and his mother are the only ones currently living in the world. He has enemies, tho. It would be boring if there weren't any. First, it was himself, and the entire world. However in this world of mine, everyone else is against the world. They build teams to defend themselves from the new age, and somehow builds up a camaraderie alongside their pilgrimage together. He looks like any other plain man, specifically British, although a bit more good-looking.
-
*He has enemies too, though. It would be rather boring if he had none. First, himself, second, the world.
And I used to make friends with artists back then and it was easier for me to do so as my character was one with an eye-catching appearance. Just in case it confused any of you as to why I included the issue about me being unable to struggle making friends just because my OC wasn't interesting enough.

Oh! Almost forgot! Victoria L. is not part of the Student Council, but shes on their good side (shes on all antagonist good actually). Shes a Lady of Few Words, a bit impatient, and is a mortal despite being quite strong ( the antagonists doesnt usually think about killing her mainly because shes unimportant . If she do get targeted, she could handle the situation herself sometimes or get help which is almost always around).
-
18%
I have to say, I expected a bit more due to my character having a decent past. But 18% is a bit surprising if I must say.
The quiz is fairly well, though the is your character 40+, and looks their age question is kind of a defect, as theyre 20 but however look their age.
All in all this is a great quiz, would recommend for anyone writing a series, getting into role-play, or just making an OC in general.
