A Connie and the Essence of Chaos adoptable that can be claimed in a reply here for free on bluesky. Can also be applied to whichever setting you like where floaty hands and feets may apply.
An 'anti sue' back in the day was a character concept trying 'too hard' to not be a Mary Sue by going out of their way to score negative on the mary sue litmus tests, being a plain jane everyman or "another type of mary sue" because they still warped the narrative despite being a bundle of flaws with no real redeeming traits.
Suffice to say, both mary sue and antisue accusations could get heavy-handed, restrictive and ridiculous to the point that the original universal mary sue litmus tests' creator disavowed the term, instead linking to an essay on the page which cuts to the crux of what the actual problems are without using the mary sue word. Everyone would say "oh just write them well" but that was never well-defined. If you're interested in looking that up the link and addendum can be seen here.
Its an easy short-hand, but worth looking at how one uses it with a critical lens. Regardless, this design is essentially playing around with a concept to have fun and create a gremlin monster bucket o' flaws.
