200th post! 🎉

In honor of this milestone, I think it’s time I introduce you to all the godawful Mary Sue “Miss Perfect-and-can-do-no-wrong” characters I’ve had since I was quite young. Keep in mind, I’ve been making OCs since I was like four years old (and back before I even knew what an “OC” was) and I might just have more bad characters I haven’t discovered yet or have long forgotten.

Left to right are Franziska, Pandora, Jackie, Florence, Charlotte, Becky, Lucy, Marie-Anne, and Christianne!

More about them below the cut! :)

Franziska Scheinberg’s information is mostly in this post, but in short, she was a character created around 2015 that was supposed to be an “improved” self-insert/dream persona who was ironically bland and snowflake as all hell. She thinks she’s totally ✨ speeeeeeeecial ✨ because she cut her hair and dyed it blonde, and she also has like four different heritages. Super unique, right? 😂

Pandora Mae Autumnsong is a character created probably around late 2015 - early 2017 whose personality traits can literally just be summed up to “poor neglected and bullied girl who deserved better dies tragically and now wants revenge on those who wronged her”. Yeah, reeeeeeeeeeeally clichéd and nothing very special. Pretty sure she’s also a knockoff of the My Little Pony character Fluttershy as well, considering she’s supposed to be shy and speaks in a soft, whispery voice. Also, that goddamn name - can I get a “SNOWFLAKE” in the chat?

Jackie Frost, ugghhhhhhhhh, this one. She was literally just supposed to be a female version of Jack Frost from that 2012 “Rise of the Guardians” film. Well, technically, she was either supposed to be his younger sister or his daughter, I couldn’t make up my mind for some reason. Also, the fact that everyone and their mom was obsessed with Jack Frost back in the day, lmaooooo. 

Florence Donatelli Monticello was a character created in 2013 who was essentially supposed to be the teenage girl version of the archetypal “Renaissance Man”; you know, multi-talented in a variety of subjects and jack of all trades. She’s a strong and independent girl who doesn’t take no for an answer and will do anything it takes to defy societal rules and do what she does best: messing around in her dead father’s workshop and building things that I’m sure Leonardo Da Vinci has already beaten her to. Her biggest enemy in life was apparently her older sister, Liza, who pretty much existed just to look down on her and make sure she acted like the proper young lady she was supposed to be.

Charlotte Li, probably my most notorious self-insert and all around awful Mary Sue, has also previously been discussed in this post. She was first created in around 2011 and was basically the embodiment of the “not like the other girls” trope, thinking she was so special and unique just because she listened to classical music. She was often plugged as a “girlfriend” of sorts for Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the composer. I wish I was joking.

Becky Willow is probably the only Sue whom I’m not sure when I exactly created her, though I think I’d pinpoint this around the late 2000s/early 2010s as she was literally just supposed to be based one of the handful of Barbie dolls I had back in the day. She was the epitome of a popular teenage girl who’s so extremely helpful and kind that everyone (and I mean everyone) just gravitates towards her for some reason. She comes from an interesting family to say the least (I might get into them in a different post) and is even a leader of some kind of Girl Scouts/science camp-type of organization. Again, I don’t know what I was thinking with that snowflake-sounding name.

Lucy was created around late 2013 and was supposed to be my earliest attempt at a “scary” Creepypasta-type character. Yeah, I had that phase too. Of course, she was clichéd as all heck as well, being a poor, once innocent girl who was thrown into an asylum for whatever reason, abused, and turned insane and killed everyone, something something. I vaguely remember basing her appearance off of Alice in that “Madness Returns” game; plus, her name was basically taken from an Elfen Lied character (as I was weirdly obsessed with that anime back in the day as well).

Lastly, Marie-Anne Emanuelle-Cendrillon LaChapelle and Christianne Emeline-Aurore LaChapelle (HOLY LONG NAMES, BATMAN) were French twins created around late 2015 and... well, that’s literally their personalities: they’re French. That’s it. And they want everyone to know it! They sort of had a little color coding going on, with Marie-Anne’s signature color being blue and Christianne’s being pink. Christianne was the more uptight of the two while Marie-Anne was kinder, and they were part of a truckload of extracurricular activities despite only being high school freshmen. BLAAAAAAAAAAND.

I just remembered I had another Sue named Iris Nephele-Tempestas, who was arguably more of a Fluttershy knockoff than Pandora and had (overpowered) elemental abilities, though Kisekae only lets you make nine characters at a time, so maybe next time, she’ll make an appearance. Ah, the Mary Sue pantheon never stops growing, does it?
