You heard me. Thundy and I were talking about the massive collection of applications that are not meeting our standards or are Mary-Sue-ish/Gary-Stu-ish. Then we were making fun of them (Mary-Sues/Gary-Stus in general). And then since Thundy got the idea to make a list of how NOT to make a character, I thought to make a thread dedicated for RPers to MAKE Sues. Credit to Thundy, though, for the Mary-Sue topic. (In fact, I'll just credit her for the idea but me to enact it).
Have a crack at it, fellow RPers. MAKE A OMG!SUE OR OMG!STU FULL OF RAINBOWS AND SPARKLES. And I'll start!
Name: Ken Ichijoji Zan'mato Kamakura-Yamato Ryu Yamamura... the third. Esquire. MD.
Age: 12
Gender: Male
District/Area:
Appearance:
He's white. Yes, you heard me. He's white. Pay no heed to his immensely Asian-influenced names, because they're awesome like that. Ken Ichijoji Zan'mato Kamakura-Yamato Ryu Yamamura is a white boy that has flawless glowing skin, teeth that sparkle gloriously in the sunlight, and eyes that GLITTER. They're the color of the ocean, symbolize his oh!so!painful life full of woe, but they're awesomely beautiful and attract ALLLLLLLLLLLLLL the ladies. All of them. Even your mother. And grandmother. Total blond, and each strand is akin to the legendary golden fleece. Yes; it is that awesome.
OMG HE'S HAWT. He's skinny but muscled nicely, 6'3 (he gots a major growth spurt), has an eight-pack (80), and his legs are so powerful that when he kicks he sends them TO THE FRICKIN' MOON. He can do 10 miles in 10 minutes, meaning those pesky Peacekeepers can't catch up to this boy. Did I forget to mention he can wield a katana, gun (got off a Peacekeeper he single-handedly killed), sword, axe, bow, throwing knife, dagger, lance, scythe, whip, mace, katar, and twin blades perfectly? He learned all of these things within one second of his life. Mhm. Oh, let's not forget to mention he wears all the designer clothes and is up-to-date in the fashion world, even with his lack of funds.
Personality:
EVERYONE LOVES/HATES HIM. WAAAAAAAH, SO KAWAII. He fetches all the ladies with his flirtatious attitude that all the men are JEALOUS for. Even when they're mad, we all know they're just jealous. Ken may treat everyone like crap at times, but all's forgiven! He's so incredibly booksmart, streetsmart, and resourceful; he's athletically-built, daring, and ready for action. Everyone wants to be this kid. Don't deny it.
Bad traits? Well, he gets sad sometimes. Mad when his dad gets up on his business. Angry when his mom tells him to take out the trash. He's pretty innocent, but everyone finds this endearing. (That's negative, right?) Oh, sometimes he gets shy or anti-social. Yep. That's bad. Oh so bad.
Ken is a helpful boy. Ask him to fetch your kitten from a tree, he's going to do that. Ask him to play basketball as the star, he can do that. He can do everything; he's Superman. He's Batman and Wonderwoman in a blender. He's so awesome he can make everyone love him. Ken is adorable, sweet, caring, and tender with all his gals. Yes. He is that amazing.
History:
Ken is poorrrrrrrrrr. How he affords his stuff, though, is that his dad works for a fantabulous clothing shop (for harsh wages) and, instead of being paid in useful money, gets useless clothes for his son. His mom died during childbirth; Ken thinks it's all his fault, and he whines about it to this day. He'll go on an tangent sometimes with his friends saying, "Oh, woe is my life! My mother, art thou dead!" Anyways, other than that tidbit, he's had the most wonderful life in the history of Panem. He's got a dog named Snoopy and they are just the most excellent of pals.
Oops, I meant to say 'were' the best of pals. You see, just to make his life dramatic, he once was punished for someone else's crimes, thrown blame for something he didn't do. GASP. He was sent to the Capitol and got his tongue cut off. But! That's okay! He got it fixed by having a mechanical tongue. It lets him talk like as though his original tongue wasn't lobbed off. Yes, I want you to take me seriously; no, I'm not kidding.
After being bought by his Capitol family, they immediately let him go, because they felt sorry for this poor boy - despite his fixed tongue-ness. Ken wandered off into the plains, running from those dastardly Peacekeepers that could never catch up to him because he was the frickin' Gingerbread Man - minus his cookie body. He kind of likes this life--- No, he loves this new life. He can do whatever he wants, like wield his fiftybajillion weapons he got from his neverending pocket of a blackhole. Mr. Yamamura sleeps among the trees and hangs with the lions. He is loved by all the animals, and they all pity him because they CRY. Because he has mastered the art of ALL the talents out there, he is pretty much godly, being able to slay anything just by tapping them with his pinky. OMG He's awesome!
Codeword: PERFECT
