Mary Sues and Such (fe_contest wibbles)

 It's easy to write a Mary Sue without trying to.  To try and write Mary Sue, and have it come out readable?  Geez.  I think I'd have better luck composing a fake translation of a fake epic poem, or a myth cycle, or something really pretentious.

Still, Fire Emblem offers no shortage of characters who can be easily warped into Canon Sues.  Imagine Lute with polished social skills and more men than just Artur, Ross, and Kyle after her (hey, that's pretty good picks for a bookworm).  Like, Lute scoring with Ephraim.  Or Innes.  Or maybe joining up with Lyon to take over the world.  Hey, pursuit of pure knowledge can take you to some bad places.  I also thought about a Crossover Sue-- dumping some over-the-top character like Serra or L'Arachel into one of the other game universes and totally warping it.  

Then I remembered an idea I'd entertained and discarded because it couldn't be anything else but a Sue.
