How to Vory-Sue!
1) Pick a universe from an existing fictional setting, often video games.
2) Determine the 'top predator' of this universe. If fantasy this is usually dragons, if sci-fi, the zerg/tyranid equivilant.
3) Your character should always pred on #2 and have developed without any predators of their own. This positions your character entirely outside any possible food chain, establishing you as the biggest baddest beings around.
4) Your character ignores why most large predators avoid eachother (namely, injuries suffered by even the winner are likely to make such a diet ultimately a failure for survival), because they never get seriously hurt hunting the universe's most dangerous creatures.
5) If the setting is 'low fantasy' or 'human-centric sci-fi' your character is the reason all the big beasts are now extinct.
6) Moral quandaries are for other races. Your character thinks nothing of whether or not the prey is sentient.
7) Moral quandaries are for other races. Your character is somehow noble despite 1-6, and anyone fighting against their behavior is immoral for trying to kill a sentient being 'just trying to survive'.
8) Now go eat the main character of #1, whom you supposedly hate ever since /lore item/ totally changed them from how they were supposed to be, and you don't care about the character any more, yet you're making all this to... show how much you don't care about them any more.
