What is a "Mary-Sue" character?
-
A Mary Sue is a generic name for any fictional character who is so competent or perfect that this appears absurd, even in the context of the fictional setting. Mary Sues are often an author's self-insertion or wish fulfillment. They may excel at tasks that should not be possible for them, or they may upstage the protagonist of a fictional setting, such as by saving them. They may disregard previously established aspects of the fiction such as characterization and natural laws. Mary Sue is a type of stock character.

Name:
- Lunar Fallenor
Age:
- 17
Culture:
-Oserian
Can your character read and write?:
- she can read but not write
Story & Biography : Lunar was always something of an odd child. She would always love to work in the fields or in the mines, compared to the other children she didn’t want to play. The reason for this was simple, that was all she knew. Her family ethic was the younger you start work the more money you’ll have for when you get old so she was pushed to work and she found joy in knowing the work she put in now would make her rich later or atleast that’s what her tiny mind would like to believe. She spent her younger years growing and maturing like any other girl her age and soon she managed to learn sowing but she wasn’t very good and wouldn’t put any time into learning it since work too much time as it is.
When Lunar reached fifteen she finally learned the truth, she had nearly no money to her name and if she kept this up she wouldn’t have enough money for herself to keep herself stable so she matured quickly, retaking sowing, cooking and other life skills ready to make herself as self sufficient as possible so she could move away. She no longer wanted to stay she had no reason, her dreams from the lies she was told didn’t keep her chained there any longer and soon she set off, looking to find someone else far away just the same but where she could teach the right way to live and not the lies her own elders had told her. She also wanted a family of her own but her own nature let her down, she was average in appearance but she can be very shy and quite around newer people which meant most boys went for the more outgoing girls then her which made her worse over the years.

Section 4/4 - Open-ended questions
Please answer at least three of the questions to show how your character would interact with the world. Delete the spares (if applicable). Please include at least one paragraph for each question you answer.
Question 1
You stumble outside into the open air after some heavy drinking in an Oserian tavern. Just before you're about to pass an alleyway, a hooded man rushes out of it and runs for it - seemingly, he has both a blade and some jewellery on him. You take a quick peek in the alleyway to see a feminine figure collapsed on the ground, holding her hands over a bleeding wound in her torso. The thief is about to escape and the woman seems in critical condition. You...
-go to the women and try and stop or slow down the bleeding and get her help, money can be worked for a life cannot be regained. I would attempt to also get her somewhere more public so if such person returns people can stop him before he tries to murder her once again.
Question 2
You are on your way to the Korsian city of Telth to sell some wares. Upon reaching the front gates you are stopped by the guard. They deny you entry for the time being as the traffic into the city is too high. You are effectively forced to wait in the refugee camp located between the two gates for the time being. The camp is
filled with shopping stalls and refugees sleeping on the floor. How do you spend your time in the camp?
-I spend my time cooking and helping however I can but keeping close to my wares incase they are stolen. I would also try to be as reassuring to everyone whos been trying to get in but can't for one reason or another and try to find a way to get them in with me.
Question 3
You've gotten lost and wandered awhile into Drahl lands, eventually finding yourself in Crookmire Swamp, where you decide to settle for the night. Finding a meal to buy for the evening takes some effort, but you do come across an old crone in ragged clothing, who offers to sell you some sea-looking food. She doesn't ask much, but warns you that eating it is 'unpleasant' to outsiders. You...
-thank the women but decline the meal and try to find mushrooms or apples to eat from the surrounding nature or maybe fish to catch smaller fish from the swamps waters. I would then cook the food on a fire to purify and make it edible before eating it and most likely try and find higher ground to rest and sleep upon.
Question 4
In the midst of battle, you find yourself approaching a wounded enemy soldier. The soldier is on the floor, clearly in terror as they cradle one of the dead. Enemy forces begin to advance in the distance and you know you have to act fast. The soldier then grasps at a cloth and removes it from the dead soldiers pocket. They continue to cry, and starts calling the dead soldier's name in despair. Then the soldier glances up to see you - with your weapon up - but does not care of your approach, continuing to cradle the dead soldier. You…
-leave him be to grieve in knowing her will come back to kill those who stand in the path of his revenge, someone who will most likely be the death of me and my friends but no man can no grieve for the loss of another. That isn't how war should work, nor should ever be consider.
Question 5
You have wandered across a seemingly endless tundra for what have felt like days. A raging snowstorm makes you unable to see more than a few metres ahead. Being almost out of resources, you are delighted to find out that you have stumbled your way to a village. Upon closer inspection you find out it's a Northern village, and the residents are not very friendly towards strangers. What do you do in this dire situation?
-I would try to reason with them and if that doesn’t work I would leave them alone pherhaps simply hiding down the side of a house to stay out of the way but where I can stay sheltered and maybe light a fire. Then i would try and keep myself warm by any means, even if i had to use my backpack as a blanket i would do anything to keep myself alive and when morning dawned i would be gone far away from them.
