Mary-sue test
Taken from anafrost
This is Mika-chan. She's KagomexKurama's lovechild and is a daddy's girl. She was conceived in the janitor's closet. Her favourite uncle is Hiei. She also has a black and white cat named MoMo. She's just your average human child character with no powers inherited from her parents whatsoever XD

Your character may be a bit on the boring side. Of course, this does depend, but generally if they are scoring that low, it wouldn't hurt to 'spice them up' a bit ^^
6-15 -Balanced Character
If your OC scored around here, then they are probably quite a well-balanced and interesting character. Those scoring in the higher end of this category may be a bit too much though.
16-25 -Borderline Mary-Sue
We have a problem. You need to tone your character down. They are most likely a bit annoying to others, too.
