Hi everyone! I found this Mary Sue test someone was doing for Percy Jackson characters and really liked it. I decided it'd be fun to put Disney princesses through it, since a lot of them are accused of being Sues (though I modified the test a little, adding and removing some traits). This test is great because it isn't unnecessarily long-winded and you don't need to be the creator of the character to put them through it (though some of the traits do get repetitive). I had to remove some like "Naturally beautiful" and "Great singing voice" since that's pretty much a given for all the princesses.

I decided to start with Rapunzel, since she's one of the most accused princesses. I'll rank each of the traits and give her a score at the end. Enjoy!



Unique traits without contacts or hair dye- No. Blonde hair and green eyes are common and while her hair is unnaturally long, the flower works to explain it (especially since her hair is naturally brown). (I guess I'll have to substitute for the "contacts or hair dye part", since none of the princesses have them)
An odd name- Yes. 'Rapunzel' is as odd as it gets. 1.
Looks constantly commented on- No. I can't remember Rapunzel's looks being commented on much.
Always the hero- Kind of. She did win over the thugs, save herself and Flynn, and even bring him back to life after he unsuccessfully tried to rescue her. 1.
Multiple characters falling for her- Not really. Only Flynn really did.
Gets into the relationships she wants- (I'll have to be generous with this, since it's a trait all of them share with their love interests) Not really. She didn't really want a relationship with Flynn as much she wanted to achieve her dream.
No flaws or any flaws addressed or called out on- Yes. Gothel certainly criticizes her flaws, but only because she's an abusive parent and the villain. The only time her naivete gets her into trouble is when it's just Gothel tricking her again. This is one of the biggest traits, so 2 points. 2.
Seen as perfect/angelic in everyone's eyes- Definitely. Everyone loves her and sees her as angelic. Also worth 2 points. 2.
Always loved and trusted without earning it- Yes. The thugs and townspeople immediately loved her without knowing she was the lost princess. So did Flynn, though she at least earned that. Another major trait that's worth 2 points. 2.
Love and trust from closed-off characters- Yes. Both the thugs and Flynn. 1.
Other characters degraded for her sake- Not as far as I can remember.
A rival to make her look good- No. I can't remember any rival she had, unless Gothel counts (which I don't think it does)
Never fails- Yes. She succeeded in leaving her tower, saving herself and Flynn from drowning, achieving her dream, and even bringing Flynn back to life. 1.
Never injured- Yes. I can't remember a time Rapunzel was injured, unlike Flynn, though it could be justified due to her healing hair. 1.
Always praised and rewarded without earning it- Not really. She earned her happy ending and most of the praise she received.
Unrealistically skilled/powerful- No. She had her entire life to practice her skills, and her powers aren't that unreasonable (except for when she brings Flynn back to life).
Always figures things out- Kind of. She figured out how to save herself and Flynn, how to fit in with the outside world despite never having left before, and even that she was the lost princess and that Gothel was lying to her for no explained reason. 1.
Kind but deadly- That's most of Rapunzel's personality. 1.
Tragic backstory- Yes, even if she doesn't see it as such. Kidnapped as a baby, used and abused by her caretaker, kept isolated and not allowed any contact with the outside world. 1.
Skilled in a wide variety of things- Yes, even if it's justified due to the time she spends alone. Just listen to the first song. 1.
Contradictory traits- No, Rapunzel's personality traits were pretty consistent, except for her conflicting emotions about leaving the tower, which are played for laughs and realistic.
Always gets what she wants- Yes, actually. She was forbidden from leaving her tower but left anyway, got to achieve her dream, escape her oppressive "mother" and confined life, and reunite with her parents. 1.
Rarely shows negative emotions- Yes. She does show insecurity, indecision, and anger towards Gothel, but most of the time she's just cheerful and happy. 1.
A resurrection- No, though she does have the ability to resurrect others.

That's 17 out of 24. I'd say that's a mild Sue. It's hard trying to fill these because few characters fit too many of the traits. I added two of my own traits (the two last ones before "A resurrection"), since I was struggling to have as many as in the original test.

If you think I answered any of these wrong, tell me. This is just too fun and I'm not too confident with my skill. Tell me how accurate you think this was, and who I should do next.
