The Universal Mary-Sue/Gary-Stue Litmus test
by BlackOpal on Tue Apr 15, 2008 1:15 pm
This is, IMHO, the best Litmust test around. It is easy to take, not too harsh and not too forgiving. There's a few key points missing, but it covers almost everything.
This is a must-do for any writer who has invented an Original Character, a Fan Character or an RP Character.
Clicks.

This was really helpful. I was really glad to see that none of my characters were mary-sue's but I know what not to do when creating a character!!

Woah...
I started to do it, but it was too long.
Have any suggestions or websites that have a shorter test?!?

Hm... I'm not sure if he has taken this test...
I forget if my character was a Mary Sue or not. I'm not going to take the test again so I'll just watch out.
