who are OC characters supposed to interact with if not existing characters
this is a concept that baffles me- immediately labeling a character as generic (mary sue) because they interact with existing characters in ANY way |
| dragonSpike #338868 11 months ago |
@fuzzy: Not just existing characters, but major characters. Vinyl and Colgate I coldn't care less, but that's Fluttershy there. |

Are you calling me insignificant Spike?
That's a little harsh, isn't it? Apologize right now young man. |

@Fuzzy_Logic , Most people do not hate OCs because they are "Mary Sue", which does not mean generic, but overpowered or having too many strengths that outbalance weaknesses. The reason people hate OCs is because a lot of them are self-inserts, meaning the author's personality, so they use this for self-fulfillment in art. For example; Skywind, the guy who commissioned those probably had a boner for Dash. |

Example of a Mary Sue, Pay attention class.
MY PONY IS NAME POWERSKULL, HE CONTROLS LIFE IN DEATH IN CANTERLOT, HE IS MORE POERFUL THAN CELESTIA AND IS DATING LUNA! HE IS LIKE 4 TIMES FASTER THAN RAINBOW DASH AND STRONGER THA 4 BIG MACS PUT TOGETER! EVERY PONY LIKE HIM! It hurts my brain when I have to act like a random tart on the internet. Yes I made that up on the spot and now I have headache. Spelling errors intentional for emphasis. |

@ Smooze - Agreed. This is where powergamers come to show off. As for acting like a random tart...well, hurts way less than acting like a pop-tart, yus? |
| YAUTJA #339629 11 months ago |
Wierd that looks a lot like the OC I made from that pony creator. I think the tail and cutie mark are the only differences. |

Marks of a self-insert and/or MarySue OC:
-Ridiculously unique colorschemes -Impossible powers/abilities -Vast importance/popularity -Somehow has a perfect relationship with the most desirable character[s] in the fandom... ALL of them -A complete LACK of personal flaws [or flaws that are endearing, i.e "troubled past" or "adorably timid"] This is usually indicative of a character designed by someone in their early teens who feels that being "better" than everyone else is the best way to be well-liked. This isn't a BAD thing, per se, it simply means the artist should grow up a bit. [/overthought rant] |
