...when I forget about the board for days at a time. Awesome stuff turns up.
Very well done, I say. Giving me uncomfortable flashbacks to the last formal lab report I had to write, but very nice. =D

Now let's think of ways to decrease Glitter levels. Modified Vampire Bats? Their outer repulsiveness may decrease their chances of becoming Suvian themselves...

I have to say I really like this idea and its execution. I don't know if I said that clearly before.
However, as a PPCer and an English major and an editor-in-training--that is, as someone specifically trained to spot plotholes and other inconsistencies--I have to point out a few issues I find in your experiment. First of all, the classifications could be punched up a little bit. Pseudolatin is the done thing, of course, but the closer you get to the genuine article, the better. For example, Humanis perfectis should probably be Homo perfectis. Also, for weird classifications, you could follow the example of plant classification and use modifiers like "var." for "variant" (Puella moderna var. prophesida) and "type 1 x type 2" for such combinations as Sidhia tolkienii x uncanonicus fantasylandia. Also, your Angsty!Goth!Sue could probably be classified as an Emo!Sue, if my understanding is correct.
Second of all, I wonder if the source of the Glitter affects the type of Sue. That is, you drew Glitter from several sources of various types and used the combination to produce a variety of different types in the dummy. What if you drew Glitter from only one source, or one type of source, and increased the levels in the dummy with that?
Third, wraiths have blood? O.o
I mean these points only in a spirit of advancing science, so I hope you'll take them in the same spirit. {= )
