Yeah, any major female character, from my experience with fandom, is a clinging shell of petite femininity or a raging Mary Sue - and that's an inclusive or. And I don't think it's possible to avoid the Mary Sue label with a female OC of any importance. *checks* Okay, not true, Elizabeth Phelan didn't get any reviews to that effect. But it really does seem that way sometimes.
