I don't know if I'm the only one who does this, but I love running my characters through the limus test! Make sure you read the instructions or you could end up with a freakishly high score you don't deserve! Ergo. If you want to take it, go here: www.springhole.net/quizzes/marysue.htmPost your result when you're done! Warning: No one should take this test too seriously. In my experience, I've seen my friend's (and even my own) characters get 'mary sue' as their result, yet they were perfectly fine, interesting characters. Of course, I know that a lot of the time it's pretty accurate. I just ran Vaenes through it, and he got 14 points. Sai got 5. LOL. I thought he'd get more than that.

Haha, this is kewl! Thanks for putting this up, Chii! I expect some characters will get higher scores, simply because they have unusual powers that are necessary for plot advancement. You gotta have some odd people every once in a while. I re-took the test because I accidentally skipped over the Original Fiction section, and this time I added checks in the boxes for languages they know. Sorren got a 16. He got a point subtracted because he is "40+, and looks his/her age" lol! Carmine got a 4. He got a point subtracted for being "honestly, hinderingly wimpy" XD Daeun got a 21, which I kinda expected due to his amnesia and all. ^^;

Okay. So I normally wouldn't do this for fear that it might show my characters are actually Mary-Sue like, which I honestly wouldn't doubt for some of them. I tend to make Mary-Sue characters without really knowing. I feel like most of my characters will be Sue-like though.
So below I will put the character and the score of each of my characters. If they are not on here it means I got interrupted by some douche bag and I'll finish it later. If they are all on here I either didn't get interrupted or I finished it later. :3
Naiya's score is 15. Apparently she could be spiced up a bit. Though I am going to add two points to her simply because she's a Deity. So her new score is 17.
Saecilia "Lusha" je D'caarre's score is 17. Which kind of makes me happy. I'm already proud to have a character like Sae/Lusha in my regime. So, it's kind of nice knowing that I don't always create Mary-Sue characters. Haha.
Katr'ee Lee-yun's score is 24. I expected her to have kind of a higher score seeing as how she's a small girl who was taken advantage of and hurt and yet she continues to ahve a smile on her face and a cheerful demeanor (though inside she is quite upset and filled with rage - though she would never do anything about it).
Aleiah Marskov's score is 27. Well, apparently Aleiah is a little Sue-ish. I kind of figured she'd be a little Sue-ish... but she's a brothel girl, so it's like "WTH?"
Celestria Hesenn's score is 52. But I'm knocking her down fifteen points simply because she's a soon-to-be bride to a prince. So her score is 37. Her score is still rather high, so she's definitely a Mary-Sue... But I had no doubts about her being one.
Yea, some boxes were a bit questionable so I added and deleted some of them for the characters to come up with a rough estimate. They are all around the same general area/amount though so it probably wouldn't make much a difference. The whole time I was mostly questioning if I was doing it right -- and I did read all of it so I'm sure I did -- but sometimes one second guesses oneself. So... These are kind of rough in my opinion.

Piers - 14/17. I'm not sure of a couple of boxes - he does have the power of innate capability, on the other hand, he hasn't used it yet, so...
Tahir -
