I know that I have made a rant about some things being overused or overpowered in some way, or having no background, this is all in relation to characters that even game developers sucked making...

Overpowered: Marduk and Xerxes from Grand Fantasia by Aeria Games. Little to No Background: Exdeath from Final Fantasy by Square Enix Overused: Eggman's Vehicles (Their inspiration has dropped in the later games) from you-know-what-unless-you-are-a-complete-noob-to-sonic-fandom.

But; why I dislike Fan characters related to Canon characters? Basically that character would be a bit of a carbon copy from most works that I've seen.

[He snaps his shoulder.]

Shima and Ryushu tend to have exceptions, though. They may have characters related to a canon character, but some of their work is original...it's also another thing why I hate it; I had a bad experience with it myself with my second fan character, it's what caused me to separate communications with a guild I had so much fun with.

Now, I know that I made one part of the rant after having fan characters related to canon characters
