...just what goes into creating a fan character? What's the appeal? How do you avoid Mary Sueisim?etc

Not that I have anything against fan charcters, but I'm defeinatly not that much of a fan. I find it hard to read a fic about the guys when I have to deal with a random love intrest or the sibling they never knew they had.

What's that you say ghost that never lies? Fan characters come into existence through scientific experiments on lint and bubble wrap? Wow!
