Some of you may recall the Eliminators of the Enemies of Canon (or EEC) that I broached the idea of in a previous thread. For those of you who don’t, it is an organization that recruits OCs from across the multiverse to kill Sues. The problem is that they bring people from, say, the Metroid canon into something like Lord of the Rings, messing up canon almost as badly as the Sues they kill. As such, they must be disciplined, one way or the other, and my agents, Zoe and the Answer (Department of Mary Sues, Video Game Division, specializing in Pokémon), are the (un)lucky pair the Flowers assigned to do it, having been the first agents to encounter the EEC.
Zoe Whittaker is a bit character minion from a Pokémon badfic, who initially didn’t even have a name. Her only role was to have her Kadabra try to interrogate the Sue telepathically and watch as it died from psychic backlash. Her desire for revenge kept her going, but unfortunately, the PPC got to the Sue before she did. Enraged, she attacked the agents for robbing her of her revenge, but after several minutes of finding out why one never meddles with the affairs of assassins, she eventually lost consciousness. The agents, seeing Sue-killing potential in her, brought her to FicPsych where she gained a name, a somewhat more complex personality, and a mission: destroy all Sues. Zoe’s new personality hasn’t changed much about her; instead of being angry all the time, now she’s usually pessimistic, cynical, and angry. She’s also a very solitary person, despite her partner’s best efforts to get her to lighten up. She favors poison as an assassination method, using Pokémon canon poisons, World 1 poisons, or Ye Olde Poisonous Poison, depending on her mood.
The Answer is a far more unusual case. DC-verse Anansi, who owns all tales, is naturally aware of the Sue problem, and tried to create a species that was designed specifically to hunt Sues. The Answer was his first attempt, but a particularly bad DC/Pokémon crossover crackfic that was passing by was absorbed into the Answer, simultaneously weakening his abilities and imbuing him with an extreme aptitude for randomness and eccentricity. Anansi, considering the Answer a failure, jettisoned him into the space between multiverses and left him there, only to find that he could not make anything even remotely as useful as the Answer was. However, by then, the Answer had multiverse-hopped his way to the PPC and joined up, as he still had an instinctual urge to get rid of Sues. However, he found himself physically unable to so much as lift a hand against a Sue, despite being able to sense their presence and predict their moves to an extent. However, due to staffing shortages, the Marquis got around this handicap by simply making sure to keep him partnered with someone who didn’t mind killing all the Sues they encountered. The Answer displays many irrational behaviors, such as creating his own religion which revolves around TV Tropes, irritating heavily-armed Agents, and munching on extra pronunciation when in badfics, but he has shown competence in Sue-hunting and has been in the PPC for at least two years without once going to Medical. He does tend to drive his partners Flamethrower Crazy after a while, however, so the Marquis often ends up having to reassign his partners somewhere less stressful.
The Answer, as mentioned above, has the ability to sense a Sue’s location (which is not overly useful, since the Words perform much the same function) and the ability to anticipate and dodge the attacks of most Sues (which is far more useful).
His Pokémon are low-leveled, since the Sues would just be better than him in battling automatically regardless of how strong they are. His team consists of Ambush Bug the Kricketune, a serial breaker of the fourth wall; Mxyzptlk the Misdreavus, who prefers to torment people by messing with their dreams and perceptions; Batzarro the Crobat, who says the opposite of what he means and lacks a firm grasp on grammar; Glomulus the Munchlax, who is actually rather typical for a Munchlax in that he’s a glutton; Creeper the Aipom, who finds morbid subjects funny; and Plastic Man the Ditto, who tends to crush on any desirable females in the area.
I apologize for the fact that this went on so long, but I’ve thought this out a lot and the information here all seemed relevant.
As their first mission, I intend to have them take on this fic: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7504579/1/AlexsContestChronicles
Very very bad fic.
And so that you know that I’m not secretly working for the Suethors: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zBBKfSvEeWlKYtVXuhVY051pxcvi17VCXravvNKe-zA/edit?hl=en_US#
Thank you for your time.
