Mary Sue
I don’t think I’ve seen this Topic here, and hell knows it’s a very important one.
You just got a fic going, a fanfic of course, can be for Harry Potter, Lord Of the Rings, Twilight (which I personally don’t respect at all) or even a band. And your character is a teen female, amazingly gorgeous though she doesn’t knows that, which has had a tragic past, is awesome at everything, everyone likes her except the common enemy of the main characters and of course ends up falling in love with the main character.
If your character fits that description you’ve got a case of Mary Sue. Which is at the least, every grave…

Remember kids, a character with realistic personality and background is worth tons!
