So I stumbled upon links to Mary Sue tests in a pal of mine's journal, and thought I'd take them with my fancharacter Ashura in mind. Here are the results.
The Univeral Mary-Sue Litmus Test
Score: 7
0-16 Points
Most likely Not-Sue. Characters at this level could probably take a little spicing up without hurting them any.
The Writer's Mary Sue Test
Total score: 23
"Ashura is suspiciously similar to you as you'd like to be. 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 Ashura, 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. Ashura is a healthy character with a promising career ahead of her."
