So I've had a trawl through the Wiki to find an answer on this one and nothing has popped out to me (yet), so hoping someone might be able to offer a hand.

I'm in the process of writing a mission (shock, gasp etc.) and it's a first person fic, hence the use of a Crash Dummy. The problem is the 'Sue also happens to be an uncanonical Goddess in the fandom (RWBY), so could you just assassinate the Crash Dummy relatively normally, thus getting rid of the 'Sue without too much of a problem, or does the Sue's Godhood embue the Crasy Dummy with a similar power level meaning it would need more "oomph" to take it down? Or does it rely solely upon the Rule of Funny (or something similar that I might have missed)?

As far as I can tell... by Linstar on 2022-06-04 13:30:24 UTC Edited Reply

Rule of Funny is the only solid rule there is. It’s stronger than gravity in a PPC setting! (Though, gravity is actually not as strong as electromagnetism, but I digress.)

However, I would assume the Dummy would have the same powers as a regular Sue. I mean, if not, all first-person Sues would be really easy to defeat. I don’t see why the Crash Dummy would make her weaker.

Yeah, I think a Crash Dummy possessed by a Goddess Sue would have the Goddess Sue's powers, by Lily Winterwood on 2022-06-04 14:20:41 UTC Reply

therefore getting rid of her would be just like how one would get rid of a Goddess Sue. Idk what that would be exactly, but something to do with any sort of plotholes in her powers, or some sort of ironic flaw in other gods in that world, would be a good place to start.
