Also has some \"de-Suifiers\" to give back points. \n* The Writer's Mary Sue Test - seems intended for characters in original fiction. \n* Mary Sue Test - seems designed for original fiction. Based on Dr. Merlin's original litmus test, the Writer's Mary Sue Test, TV Tropes' list of Sue traits, and the now-lost Original Fiction Mary Sue Litmus Test.
