This is the first i've heard of this term. LotC is the first MMorpg type thing i've played since text based mudds so.... Reading through the test made me realize that there are a LOT of big time Mary Sue's on the server lol.
Here's what i checked on the survey for Yahgy's character.
-Was the character ever estranged from her/his family/tribe/country/etc.?
-Does the character have an accent relative to her/his country of residence?
-Does the character have a physical handicap that does not hinder her/him significantly?
-Is the character is a smoker?
-Does the character have a dependency or addiction that is or would be very hard to break (e.g.
alcoholism, drugs, gambling, sex addiction, a potentially dangerous sexual fetish, etc.)?
-The ability to shrug off minor wounds
-Is the character old, even by the standards of her/his race?
-Do you draw the character, or ask other people to draw her/him for you, more often than any of your other characters?
-Is the character someone you would want to be friends with, assuming she/he would be receptive to friendship with you?
