I took the Mary Sue test for Gilda, Meek, the Piranha, Dr. Raggleworth, and Bernadette. Here are the results:
Gilda scored a 13. This means she is a non-Sue. I have a feeling the score was so low because even though she isn't human she didn't score a checkmark on ANY of the questions relating to non-humans. The questions seemed to ignore Funny Animals entirely.
Meek scored a 8 which means he's an anti-Sue. I have to say some of these questions are inprecise. They had no options for lab assistants, demonologists, lawyers or people who are unemployed.
The Piranha scored a 34 which is the tail end of a borderline Sue. I expected that. Frankly I'm shocked it isn't higher.
Dr. Raggleworth scored a 6. He's even more of an anti-Sue than Meek is. I'm surprised scientist isn't one of the professions listed.
Bernadette scored a 5 which I'm frankly surprised at. As I said, some of the questions were imprecise. For instance Meek and Bernadette are descendants of a crazy guy who considered himself a king of a broken down kingdom. They never learned of this fact and it never comes up in the story other than as a footnote of the prequel I did called "The Pontue Legacy". I STILL thought it was only fair to say they were descended from royalty even though it doesn't actually effect their stories but the wording was still inprecise.
I haven't done my comics in a while but knowing that none of my characters besides the Piranha are Mary Sues makes me feel more confident about it.
