你 may ask who and what is Mary Sue and a Gary Stu?

Well my follow 粉丝 popper a Mary Sue and Gary Stu is a written 或者 drawn mistake, lie 或者 fake.

Why are they supposedly a lie 或者 a fraud?

Silly you! They're a lie and,or a fraud because they're perfect, no flaws, no issues, and no worries. Basically everything a human isn't 或者 can't naturally have.

Mary Sue- Is a female who is beautifully, smart, sexy, strong, independent, sentimental, generous, slim but curvy at the same time,and yada yada. She's basically the perfect woman with no flaws and a sex symbol that tops over all other sex symbols. Her talents, her beauty, her smarts, her body, her everything is better than yours and everyone agrees and loves her. Anything she does 'wrong' is a misunderstanding and in the end she's still the lovely and good Mary!

Gary Stu-Is a male who's sexy, handsome, smooth,smart, sentimental, tough, bad boy,edgy,romantic, muscular, strong,has lots of money, and smooth with the ladies again because this is kinda a huge point to them. Basically he's everything a Mary Sue is but is a male. He makes your man like a dumb ugly dog. ( 狗 are cute 由 the way. Not cuter than 猫 though) He has no real flaws. Bad boy, no because every girl 或者 guy ( there's no discrimination in this 文章 except against Mary Sues and Gary Stus) has a bit of a soft side for the dark side. ;)

These 'people' aren't real because of these facts they have no flaws 或者 problems. Especially no challenging problems that has to take a whole series 或者 book.

Harry Potter,however, is faced with challenge after challenge that the main challenge, Voldemort brings upon him with his followers to help him. Also Harry deals with personally problems and feelings that we all had, can relate too, and are very much human. Harry's challenges last each book and the main challenge lasts through the whole series and with these challenges he grows, develops, understand things, and find ways to stop the badies and all that good stuff.

Anyway, how do they become to exist?!

That's what everyone asks! Why? Because Mary Sues and Gary Stus are common in literature, television,plays, and movies. Even in popular,well written and applauded works of art.
They exist because some authors,artists, directors, writers and all them wanted to have a character who resembles themselves but are the better versions. 或者 they are what everyone should strive to be but are impossible to reach 由 all humans because the standards are impossible to reach.But remember not every character standard can be considered impossible especially if they are a real character not a Sue 或者 Stu.

In My Little Pony Twilight Sparkle became a princess in "Magical Mystery Cure" because she understood and knew the power of friendship. She of course was then bashed for becoming a Sue. But can 你 call her that? No because she had fears and problems. But she overcame them through out the series with the help of 老友记 and her own courage and bravery. This also gives her character development but we will go over that later. Her standards weren't too high and impossible. 你 have to overcome something life changing 或者 different than anything 你 ever experienced. No 你 won't become a princess 或者 a prince, 你 will however feel some accomplishment and arise up from your old way(s) and become a better you.

Are all characters we look up to and want to be like Mary Sues and Gary Stus?

Hell No!Well defined characters are 更多 human like. They have flaws and strengths that sometimes out weigh the other 或者 are equal.You can relate to them because of this.
Flaws if 你 most know are faults,weakness, and imperfections within 或者 outside a person,idea,thought, 或者 thing. They can be small 或者 big depending on the way it is used and looked at. Strength however, are good 或者 beneficial qualities 或者 attributes of a person,idea,thought, 或者 thing.

How do I avoid making this character!?

Wise one!! 你 don't what a lifeless, boring drone. So here are some steps:

First the basics:
The character name, looks, and personality.
These can change depending on the setting the character is in. It's been proven 由 many other people that Mary Sues and Gary Stus usually have names that have a super specially meaning. But there are acceptations if 你 ask me. For example, a baby is born during a war and the parents decide to call the baby Victory 或者 Hope, Victory to remind them of what they strive for. Hope is as basic as it can get.

Appearance can change variously depending on age,era, style and person. Now here is some limitations, she 或者 he can't possible look better than everyone in the whole room unless the story is told 由 the person who loves our heroine 或者 hero. Why because they're opinion is going to be bias because they are in love. 或者 it could be bias if the narrator is our main heroine and she/he believes she/he's 更多 gorgeous/handsome than everyone else but this could be written as either a flaw 或者 a strength because she/he is either arrogant 或者 confident.

Here are some body limitations if she is bone thin don't say she has curves in all the right ways, if she's chubby don't say she's fitter than every girl in school because it's kinda unrealistic for both lines. If he is bone thin don't say he's the best football player because of his natural physical strength alone. Natural strength as in no powers, no magic, no drugs, no bribes, no video games, and no dreams. But again if it's from a bias persons point of view it can be put off as an acceptation. It could be written off as being a Mary 或者 Gary when the story is told basically 由 an unbiased 或者 outside character.

First off the character can be attractive,friendly and smart. Why? Because both woman and men can be this way without being perfect.The reason why a person could have these strengths without being a Mary 或者 a Gary is because the strengths most likely will be balanced with flaws 或者 occasionally topping over each other.There are 更多 strengths too 由 the way. Such as talented, generous, open minded,creative,exciting, lovely, elegant, popular,independent,strong,healthy,athletic, brave,witty,cunning,etc.There are many flaws that are out there and could be a trait for a human as well as a character ,such as being ignorant, close minded, lazy, boring, dependent, weak, coward, arrogant, naive, bossy,ugly,mean, etc. As 你 can see some 或者 most of the flaws is the opposite of the some 或者 most of the strengths.

Second: Back story and Goals
This is where we know the history of the character and can direct us to the character's possibly future. This is where we learn who's their family and 老友记 are, possibly their enemy, were there some lovers, were there some 心 break, 或者 were there some terrible things that happened to our character. Was it death, rape, molestation, traumatizing experiences, 或者 something? The back story can example many things about the character whether why the appear this way, why do they live here, why do they 爱情 this 或者 hate that, why are this/that way? Back story is basically what were character history,present and future is.Make them at least have one personally fear because everyone has one. Give reasons why they are nervous 或者 afraid of this 或者 this happening.

Goals are basically what the character has accomplished 或者 hasn't accomplished yet and what they want to accomplish. This also help us with the back story of the character 或者 the whole story itself, This can also tell us why the character act this way, like this and dislike this, and are a certain way. Goals, back story, development and personality in my opinion is what makes a deep character. Deep characters have complicated feelings, thoughts, goals, development and personality.

Development is of course how much the character progress, learn, and better themselves and others. 你 also will learn the rawness of the character, what they are and who? Why they do this 或者 do that? 你 understand them and relate to them. They are slowly fixing their flaws and inspiring 你 to do so too.

A Mary Sue and a Gary Stu does none of these things 或者 have these things. They aren't complex, they weren't hard to figure out. 你 what is happening before it is happening and there's no real problem 或者 suspense around them. Why? Because Mary and Gary aren't meant for serious novels and 电视 shows. They're little characters the 作者 或者 whatever put there just because.

Don't make Mary Sues and Gary Stus. Just telling it how it is!
Sun shining like a holy light. After getting out of the tent, I was welcomed 由 such greenery and wildlife. Such green lush beauty in the glowing morning light made everything just pop and colorful. So many different shades of green and nature all around. I definitely didn't get this New York! The lush vegetation, the scenery, the little cute monkeys climbing around, it was like being in a zoo almost. I heard rustling in the bushes, and prepared myself for an animal attack. As soon as I saw my sister's 粉, 粉色 网球 shoe pop out of the bushes, I was slightly relieved. The girls walked out of...

Aria Glass sat on 最佳, 返回页首 of her house with an unopened 啤酒 in her hand and her eyes on the sky. It was a beautiful night and Toby and Jared where at it again. Jared had become 更多 quick-tempered than usual, barking at almost everything. Neither boy’s where good at their temper control and over the years Aria had learned to let boys be boys and fight it out themselves. But Aria could take them both, Aria smirked at this thought, true 或者 not they would never hurt her.
    But she did hate it when they fought, although...

A week later, Blair had gotten us all settled in. I had the one spare bedroom, Kirsten and Sage slept on air mattresses in the other spare bedroom, Paige had a bedroom in the basement, and Mom slept on the pullout couch. Blair and her husband were so nice for taking us in, I'd never be able to thank them enough.

Mom still hadn't found a job. This pleased me, despite our 前一个 conversation. I liked it when she was around. She was fun to talk to, and she understood me sometimes. Even if she didn't, she listened to me.

She seemed nicer too, and 更多 caring.

Back at home, when she was actually...

My breaths were trapped in the back of my throat. I was afraid to breathe, because they'd probably come out as screams. The barrel of the gun pressed harder into my head, probably leaving a mark.

"Give me your money," the voice said. I tried to speak, but I couldn't. A couple moments later he took his hand away from my mouth so I could speak.

"I-- I-- I-- don't ha-- a-- ave an-- n-- n--y," I said, my voice shaking so much it took him a while to tell what I was saying. Then he laughed darkly.

"Well, that sucks for you." I felt the gun 移动 a little, as he put his finger on the trigger. I took a...

"Thank you, miss. We'll look over your application as soon as we can," the nice receptionist smiled. I nodded thankfully. She eyed me curiously, and glanced at my application. "Um, how old are you?" she asked.

"Twenty two," I said, without breaking a sweat. I'd been prepared for that. I'm actually fifteen, but maybe I could pass for a very short, very young looking adult. She nodded, but since she had no proof I was lying, she let me go. I walked down the streets, the sun beating down on me. I could tell 由 the brightness in the sky, I was late. I picked up the pace, and started running. Dogs...

A pair of eyes shot open as the dark-haired boy jolted himself out of his nightmare. His eyes searched the room fearfully as he clutched the pristine white sheets between his white knuckles. His breathing was erratic and his 心 rate was beating at the rate of an animal being chased 由 a vicious predator. He continued 表演 this way for a few 分钟 before he began to calm...

I sit in the dark. Thinking about Jack. A single tear comes out of my eye, then another. I start to laugh quietly, trying not to wake up my sister. Then, the horrible memory from my awful dream came back to me. I went to the door and paused. I sighed and told myself that nothing is out there but the hallway, the dining room, living room and the kitchen. I took out my phone from my 夹克 and looked at the time. It's 5:59. I rolled my eyes and opened and closed the door quietly and sat on the soft couch. I started to drift into thoughts about Degrassi, and what it would be like if I went there. Then, a black figure moved across the kitchen. Spooked, I quickly walked to my aunts' laptop and looked up some funny 视频 on youtube.com to keep m off track from the figure. Hours passed, and I am still freaked. Ten 分钟 later, I calm down and look up some 更多 funny stuff. Ugh! I must be haluccinating from lack of sleep. I rubbed my eyes and went back to my bedroom and passed out.
CHAPTER 1


Jason Card sat on his 王座, 宝座 in the Vampire Council room. The room rested in a paculiar place. The center of an undersea volcano. Magic kept the lave back. It formed a dome over the room except for a tunnel the leads out and up onto an island in the middle of the Atlantic. Vampires, being the most cold skinned creatires on earth didn't feel a percentage of the heat.
Jason was a tall and skinny man, with black hair and green eyes. He wore a black t-shirt with blue jeans and a 交叉, 十字架 necklace. 吸血鬼 could change there age at will and he took the form of a twenty 年 old man.

I shopped all over the mall. I even got some dresses. As I turned to thank the woman of the last store in the mall I hadnt shopped at, I smiled. She cringed and screamed. Then I realized why.

" Thank 你 maa'm. Great service!" "AAH! AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" "JULIE, CALM DOWN! 你 are scaring our customer!"

I am a monster. A vampire.

I got out of that store as fast as I could. I looked around to see if anyone was around the cemetery. Nope. Stepped inside. The world swirled around me until I was in my room. I put all my clothes in my closet. Ready for school. School. SCHOOL! I NEEDED TO SIGN UP! I...

"...My parents are alcoholics," Echo confided with me. "They're almost never sober. Then I'm stuck caring for my little brother. And it's... it's just hard," her voice cracked. I put my arm around her and pulled her close. I opened my mouth, but I had no idea what to say. She wiped her eyes and sniffed. "I'm sorry."

"Don't be. I can't imagine what it's like for you..." She shrugged. Then a 钟, 贝尔 rang and students started filing out of the lunch room. Lunch was over already? We stood up, and went to our 下一个 class.

That 下一个 morning I stretched and hopped out of my bed. My snow white wings unfolded and rose above my head. Yes, I forgot to mention that professor gave me wings when I was created. I totally forgot what happened last night, did he say something like he was going to experiment with hybrid Taoloids? Yes... Now I remember.. After I undressed out of my lacy oversized 粉, 粉色 and white night 袍, 礼服 into my regular 粉, 粉色 and magenta dress, I crept down the long hallways and into the kitchen. I got to make Professor Rhinestone breakfast! I unexpectedly overslept a half 小时 later, possibly because I was...

Alone. All cold, cold as snow in December's winter embrace. What have I become in life? I let the others push me, let poverty and unhappiness take over, and let me live a short, tragic life. Did I long to be miserable and unhappy like Poe so I could become a great writer? Did I read The Little Match Girl too much at age five 或者 six to the point where I became her? Am I an attention seeker because my parents never gave a damn about me? I could have been anything, anything I wanted. I was a great writer, fantastic artist, had a perfect boyfriend for me, but I just threw it all away. If I could,...

They 说 I was just an unfortunate child, born to the wrong people. I'd never seen light until I was eight years old. My parents were criminals (I hadn't known this before of course). They'd hurt a lot of people. They were captured eventually, but then they had managed to escape the prison they were in. Then I was born. My parents were afraid they were caught, so they stayed in an apartment for eight years. No light, and almost no human contact. My dad was the only one that ever left the apartment, to get necessary things like food, clothes, and what not.

I never went to school. Mom taught...

"Yum! This lasagna was amazing!" I 说 after dabbing my mouth with the folded napkin. Professor Rhinestone smiled, which was very unexpecting! I hadn't seen him smile in quite a while! "Well then, I should get to the dishes." I stood up from my chair and began to go towards the sink. "Ah! Soul, why don't I clean up, hmm?" I tilted my head. "Um, th-thank 你 Professor.." As I walked away thoughts burst inside my mind. Why was professor being so much kinder than usual? Okay so first he excused me for making dinner, which I was totally fine of doing, than he smiles, than he insists on cleaning...

One of his best buddy Benjamin popularly known as Ben came to him and sat near Zean saying “you were so tired that 你 slept on the floor. Whats wrong with you?” “No, nothing..
