I think Kyle is a fairly large Mary Sue in my opinion. But that's because every time I make a character they end up becoming a Mary Sue in some way.

To be fair he's a parody sue if so. He's all perfect and that, but crap still goes wrong for him (Medea and Isaac, Ashley getting paralysed, etc).

Darnos has eaten a noticeable fraction of the food in the cafeteria.
Interested in seeing how long until Darnos gets Dex and Agi penalties?

Lots going on aside from Darnos trying to indirectly use his power on his gastrointestinal system, but not a lot I can comment on.

Hey, pink and yellow are hard to read. Just a heads-up...

"Says you."
Says biology.

((Hyperlink))
It's obvious that Mr. J is the geography teacher.

[D20:1] Victoria is too focused on Maroon and Selina to notice.
So, Selina and Victoria both critfailed noticing Lyle.
...Projeck, did toy have to have Isaac pointing Lyle out?

"I wonder how many people here are actually completely human..."
((Arguably Angerus!))
FTFY

[@Selina]
Oh yeah, you're the girl who that girl got preggers!
I see that Vornar&co are making as little effort as ever to be liked by anyone else.

((Selina doesn't have much of a chest... its gotten a little bigger from being pregnant, but not very much since its only been 2 and a half months.))
[/quote]
When did the other half-month come in? I remember one 6-week timeskip and one 2-week timeskip but that leaves 2 weeks unskipped...

Quote
((Please tell me i'm not the only one who keeps forgetting she has a tail?))
Eh. More of the "don't think about it" kind.
Same with Angel, actually; it doesn't come up that much.
To summarize: No, you're not.

((If a chest is there,
No matter how small it is,
I shall stare at it.))
((Sounds like some kind of oath for a knightly order.))
The Order of Asrean the Ursine?
Which probably doesn't make any sense to most people here...

VornarForce block off Selina's every escape route and hug her.
Unwillingly.
When she was trying to escape them.
It's like G-rated rape, in that it doesn't really make any sense but is still probably a bad thing.

((You DO realize Medea worships Athena....yeah.))
This should be good.

Selina keeps screaming, going into the fetal position! Hands were touching what should not be touched! That included her tail!
Wait, wasn't she still in the water?

I got this.
Suddenly, in the most sultry voice the boys have ever heard, Cougar says, "Ooh, booooyys.."
They haven't hit puberty, dumbass.
It worked, didn't it?
Not in the way Cougar probably expected, but they stopped bugging Selina!

<The people here can be very reasonable. You haven't given them a reason to yet. From what I saw, you friendly fired on the battlefield. You might want to pray to me next time you go into combat so you may actually think.>
Burn! Almost as bad as the friendly-fire incident she was referring to, except that the latter affected several people.

((For fuck sake Projeck, Athena isn't using logic; everyone is consistently a dick to Darnos when he hasn't spoken.))
((Admittedly for good reason, but still.))
Indeed. His reputation precedes him.
If only it was a positive reputation and not one for screwing with people, friendly fire, sociopathy, and breaking little girls' faces.

((GAH FUCKING MARY SUE CHARACTERS AND DISOBEYING LOGIC AND ALWAYS NEEDING TO BE RIGHT GRAAAARGH.))
Says the guy with a dozen characters to mob anyone he feels like who doesn't see what's wrong with his vampire-removal plans when everyone is arguing against them.
You can be self-righteous and a powergamer sometimes, too...

((Seriously, Isaac is one of the biggest Mary Sues I've ever seen in a roleplay; he hits almost every single checkpoint on the Mary Sue list.))
((And Vornars not?))
((Vornar doesn't have magicalcolourful eyes and a goddess for a parent.))
http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CommonMarySueTraits
On the other hand...
Spoiler: Vornar Traits (click to show/hide)
In conclusion, don't dish it out if you can't take it.
Oh, and the multicolored eyes were presumably inspired by Selina and Lyle having the same when their different personalities come out. Because, you know, the colors only change when Maroon, Pink, Gray, or someone comes out.

Darnos shouldn't have used the word 'preference'. Now Victoria thinks that Medea wants to have sex with hair and that Not!Selina wants to have ex with the concept of pain.
*chuckles*

Victoria doesn't know about the two example given. And she has no idea about the concept of 'pleasure'.
I don't think Victoria understands people very well.
It took you this long to realize that?

ARGH WHAT THE HELL SO MUCH FREAKING RP.
*points to the thread title*

Yeah, it isn't going to make much sense.
You may want to reconsider, then.

Heheheheh.
I have to make my move. Quickly.
Grimdarkness WILL not prevail~
Angel and Meme to the rescute!

I can ever be extinguished or destroyed.
Oh good, otherwise I might be worried.
But probably not. I enjoy taking down generic villainous villains.

I wish I could just kill off Kyle so I could use my new idea for a power.
Tell me more, tell me more, like would the new guy still be K.J?

Having mary sue traits does not a mary sue make. :|
Especially not the ones Gamerlord mentioned.
The ones that make the story more alleged-MS-centric or less logical (like having these AWESOME skills, or being a jerk and still expected to be liked) probably do, however.

Canonical ones anyhow. This version may be different.
...
On that note, tropes page needs super update in the character department.
Hey, I'm trying to maintain about three tropes pages here. :|
Which RPs?
RotMG, E:G, and TA. With a close eye on LaFoTM.
Say, do you know enough about indexing to put all the Bay12 roleplays onto their own index? I could help find some, if needed.

But in my opinion, Ricardo has the largest flaw:
-FBI Watchlist: Seriously, every time he uses his ability to modify a substance I haven't depicted him using before, I have to search up the medication and find out its side effects and whether it could be used to create illicit substances. It's really fucking awkward doing that and thinking 'Well fuck, I'm probably listed as a potential/suspected drug dealer now'.
*chuckles*
"No, I'm not a drug dealer! I was just doing research for a game I play online!"
"What game is that?"
"This one." *shows TA*
"A Bay12er? Hm. Remove him from the drug watchlist and move him to the magma-cannon watchlist..."

Anyways...Angel's potential flaws that I see.

Rag, when you get on, can you have a chat with GWG? He does not seem to understand the whole 'don't start arguments' and 'don't restart arguements' concept.

Bleh, if you don't like what he's going to say, then don't kick up a fuss. Just ignore it. To be honest, I'm rather uncaring about this right now.

Says the person who actually started the argument.
And I don't like people who point at the speck in another's eye whilst ignoring the log in their own.

FUCK. Completely forgot to have Vornar go off at Athena for abandoning Isaac... eh he probably wouldn't have gotten those memories from Lyle and Victoria anyway.

Hell, nobody even knew Athena. Except possibly Medea. And only vaguely.

Vornar really didn't learn anything from dying, did he?

If I remember correctly Isaac said to PreviousVornar and Lyle something about his parent's abandoning him...

Athena would probably just shrug it off. She's not exactly the most violent god/goddess.
Also, to be fair, she was a god, and gods can't interfere with their children too much. And the abandonment part was just his view on it until he learned the truth about his mother.

They can at least make sure they're alright. And there is no way Isaac is past it just like that. Not freaking possible.

Isaac isn't completely past it. He's saying he is, but he isn't. And to be fair, Athena does check up on him. Hence the swirling grey eyes at points in time.

It's just... I know kids whose parents abandoned them. The only thing they feel for them now, seventeen years later, is hate.

You'll understand why he doesn't hate her soon enough. It's going to be explained.
