History Main / FixERSue

* ''Literature/TheSevenPercentSolution'' by Nicholas Meyer is a ''Literature/SherlockHolmes'' fic bizarrely combining this with using a historical character as PossessionSue. You see, ''actually'' Franchise/SherlockHolmes was just a delusional junkie. And the one desperately needed there is all-shiny... who? [[spoiler:[[FreudWasRight Dr. Sigmund Freud]]!]] Yes, just like that.
* It's common in fics based on the film version of ''TheLeagueOfExtraordinaryGentlemen'' to introduce a female OC, whose purpose is either to facilitate a slash pairing between two of the guys or to hook up herself with whichever of the team the author found most attractive. Or both.

* Series/{{Heroes}}

* In TheVampireDiaries, Bonnie seems to exist to be a living AuthorsSavingThrow to keep the show going.
* Stocke in VideoGame/RadiantHistoria is an in-universe example. Inevitable disasters are always narrowly averted, he makes flawless tactical decisions, and makes counterintuitive strategic calls that by all logic should sink his side but always end up being the perfect course of action. Other characters constantly comment on this. Since the player controls Stocke, though, they are well aware that he does this by experiencing the disasters the first time around, and then using the [[TimeTravel White Chronicle]] to go back and use future knowledge to change the outcome.
* In the ''Haruhi Suzumiya'' novels, the character Yasumi appears just in time to save the protagonists from [[spoiler:Fujiwara]]'s plot and reconcile the timeline. There is a very good reason for this: [[spoiler:she's an avatar of Haruhi who was created specifically to do this. Naturally, she has a degree of Haruhi's powers and omniscience]]. After Yasumi's purpose is achieved, she fades into the story's background and no longer interacts with the protagonists.

The Fixer Sue is a unique entity in the MarySue class in that he or she was never meant as a character so much as a plot device. They may or may not represent the author or indulge in the CommonMarySueTraits, but what they do is use their magical plot altering powers to get things "back on track" in the eyes of the author. The plot still elevates the character to unrealistic heights, but instead of it being done for the greater glory of the author, it's to get to a particular end within the canon. Once the character is done fixing all the "problems", he or she will usually get unceremoniously removed (either by death, being PutOnABus, or just getting downgraded to a minor character).

Fixer Sue can be just anything and everything so long as he or she gets the results desired. A VillainSue comes in and ceremoniously kill off the LoveDodecahedron outside of the OTP? Hey, that works. A SympatheticSue {{wangst}}s about how her (non)canon sister is depressed and unloved, inspiring the protagonist to choose her instead? That also works. This is also often done in a tongue-in-cheek manner (for example, a PuritySue shows up and makes the hero realize how much he really hates extremely girly women and goes for the tomboyish childhood friend).

* In many RanmaOneHalf fanfics, Ranma Saotome is made into a FixerSue of sorts. This would make sense since probabilities would become warped and wild things would occur whenever he's around.

** On the other side, the entire length of canon couldn't solve Manga/RanmaOneHalf's LoveDodecahedron, but one mediocre fight with a Fixer Sue collapses the whole thing, quickly and neatly. A great number of fics start off with one of the girls in mortal peril from some new enemy, and it is only after he rescues her that Ranma finally realizes how important she really is to him. Then the majority of the story is actually spent tying off all the romantic loose ends.

[[folder:Fanworks]]

** Alternatively, [[ComicBook/StarFox Fara Phoenix]] shows up to utterly kick the backside of anyone standing between her and Fox [[NewPowersAsThePlotDemands (despite being a civilian)]]. Also expect Krystal to DieForOurShip.

* In the otherwise good ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'' fic (it was on the FanFicRecs!) [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4627351/35/Invader_Zim_The_Series Invader Zim: The Series,]] original character Nick is said to be a Fixer Sue (by ''JohnnyTheHomicidalManiac'', to be exact). It should be noted that [[spoiler: until the end,]] his efforts were unsuccessful, and while he makes friends with most of the canon characters, he also gets his fair share of crap dumped on him too.

* [[Series/{{Heroes}} Arthur Petrelli]] seems to be a canon version, as he took away Peter's endless supply of powers and also managed to get rid of the hated Maya.
** Likewise, Matt Parkman Jr. seemed to be introduced to give Hiro his powers back and get Matt back with Janice (which no one wanted).

* [[VideoGame/RadiantHistoria Stocke]] is an in-universe example. Inevitable disasters are always narrowly averted, he makes flawless tactical decisions, and makes counterintuitive strategic calls that by all means should sink his side but always end up being the perfect course of action. Other characters constantly comment on this. Since the player controls Stocke though, they're well aware he does this by experiencing the disasters the first time around, but then uses the [[TimeTravel White Chronicle]] to go back and use future knowledge to change the outcome.

* In the ''{{Metalocalypse}}'' fanfic [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3918028/1/New_Roommate New Roommate]], Alexis Ofdensen (yeah, she's his daughter; you can see where this is going) overlaps quite a few Sue types, but at her core is a FixerSue. The [[http://lunafoxgoddess.deviantart.com/art/New-Roommate-69462478 author's notes]] suggest that the character and story were created in order to counteract the number of Dethklok [[SlashFic slash stories and art]] already published. She exists mainly to have nice, heterosexual sex with every member of the band in order to counterbalance the perceived HoYay within the series. [[SarcasmMode It worked whenever they were shown having sex with women in the show, right?]]

* Parodied in [[http://wayback.archive.org/web/20130705220140/http://www.asynjor.com/fanfic/ornstead.html Otaku Three - EVA Revolution]], where a dangerously genre savvy MartyStu tries to derail ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' not through sheer badassitude or XanatosSpeedChess, but instead by feigning WrongGenreSavvy until he turns the series into a SuperRobot show. Hilarity Ensues.
* As in Ranma fics, LoveHina has ''many'' involving Keitaro suddenly having a brother or cousin who shows up to fix the story.

* There are dozens of ''{{iCarly}}'' fics for the Sam/Freddie BelligerentSexualTension styled ''Seddie'' ship, where a Fixer Sue shows up as a long-lost sister or cousin of Freddie, and immediately helps Sam and Freddie hook up.

Amongst {{fanfiction}} writers, the FixFic is incredibly popular due to everybody having an opinion on how a particular canon should go. Don't like how they took your favorite character and DroppedABridgeOnHim? Nah, HesJustHiding. Your [[OneTruePairing OTP]] got ruined? [[CharacterDerailment Derail a few characters]] to get things on the right track. Wish the villain wasn't such a cad? Maybe he found that there was good in his heart after all. But how are you going to make this happen? This is when you call your local {{fanfiction}} repair business and request they send out a Fixer Sue.

Fixer Sue can be just anything and everything so long as he or she gets the results desired. A VillainSue comes in and ceremoniously kill off the LoveDodecahedron outside of the {{OTP}}? Hey, that works. A SympatheticSue {{wangst}}s about how her (non)canon sister is depressed and unloved, inspiring the protagonist to choose her instead? That also works. This is also often done in a tongue-in-cheek manner (for example, a PuritySue shows up and makes the hero realize how much he really hates extremely girly women and goes for the tomboyish childhood friend).

* ''VideoGame/StarFox'' usually has either Falco or Wolf be Fixer Sues in order to "rescue" Fox from Krystal. Strangely enough, another rising example is the [[RetCon ret-conned]] Miyu, a female lynx, from ''Star Fox 2.'' There are at least two fanfics (by the same author, no less) where Miyu "saves" Fox from an abusive-ized Krystal; one of them even has her express belief that, though he's a fox and she's a lynx, they can reproduce and have children, even though they're two entirely different species.

* There are a high number of ''Franchise/SailorMoon'' fanfics that try to remove the [[OfficialCouple canon]] [[SchoolgirlLesbians lesbianism]] of [[{{Bifauxnen}} Haruka]] and [[TheOjou Michiru]]. Most of them just [[CharacterDerailment turn Haruka]] [[PsychoLesbian into an evil butch pervert]] [[DieForOurShip who abuses Michiru]] and create a dashing [[RelationshipSue Gary Stu]] to make Michiru heterosexual. The most infamous example, however, was cooked up by the notorious Save Our Sailors website, which actually [[PossessionSue used]] ''Haruka'' as the FixerSue and tried to pass it off as canon. Their story claimed that there was a Prince of Uranus in the past that was Sailor Uranus' brother and Michiru's past lover, whom Sailor Uranus passed her powers onto when she died and caused him to be reincarnated as a woman that still loved Michiru. Therefore it wasn't ''really'' homosexuality because Haruka was ''[[DiscountLesbians really]]'' [[DiscountLesbians a boy]]. Cue InternetBackdraft and loss of what little credibility they ever had! (Naoko Takeuchi [[WordOfGod has gone on record]] saying that Haruka is not and never has been a man, but when has ''that'' stopped anyone?)

** Not to mention the kind of crap that gets inflicted on [[RonTheDeathEater Ron]].
** [[Fanfic/MyImmortal Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way]] takes this to [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] levels.

* The ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' fanfic "[[http://www.darkscribes.org/stories/30070 Higher Learning]]" stars Kaoru Miyazaki, a KidFromTheFuture FixerSue masquerading as a teacher for the main characters. Watch as he thwarts the nefarious plans of the TheOmniscientCouncilOfVagueness and the MagnificentBastard, heals the ''severe'' psychological problems of the teen heroes and seduce their BunnyEarsLawyer caretaker; and marvel at the enormous popularity this fic had with the MarySue-hating crowd back when the ''Evangelion'' fandom was alive! [[spoiler: He was also an alternate universe Shinji, more or less, who basically went back in time with the express intent of fixing things.]] Though, admittedly, the fic was still quite good when compared to ''other'' FixerSue fics.

* Shioshiro Himiya, from the ''WeissKreuz'' fanfic [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2065398/1/ Kind des Schicksals]], is another KidFromTheFuture Stu - the child of Aya Fujimiya and Ken Hidaka, both of whom are ''male'' and don't like each other much - who conveniently knows the entire plotline and comes back in time to save Weiss and Schwarz from the evils of [[OddlyNamedSequel Weiss Kreuz Gluhen]]. His presence is the answer to just about every issue the characters have, no matter how deep-rooted, and once his purpose - to warp the story into a {{fangirl}}-approved shape and get [[YaoiFangirl fan-favorite]] [[OneTruePairing pairings]] to hook up BecauseDestinySaysSo - is fulfilled, he conveniently dies. This fic is also absurdly popular. Though one wonders if it would be as popular if Shioshiro had been 1) a girl and 2) someone else's child.

* There are dozens of ''{{iCarly}}'' fics for the Sam/Freddie BelligerentSexualTension styled ''Seddie'' ship, where a FixerSue shows up as a long-lost sister or cousin of Freddie, and immediately helps Sam and Freddie hook up.
** [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6906423/1/iCarlys_Father iCarly's Father]] has Col. Shay as a FixerSue.
* There are ''RockyHorrorPictureShow'' fanfics out there that feature a fan-character (often a female) bringing Dr. Frank N Furter back from the dead and/or simply going back in time to prevent him from being killed in the first place.

* A good number of Rose shippers in the ''Series/DoctorWho'' fandom use Bad Wolf [[spoiler:(the omnipotent goddess Rose became for a few minutes at the end of season 1)]] as a frequent FixerSue to get her back with the Doctor.
** And Lets Not Forget that [[http://spoon300.deviantart.com/gallery/31302955 Doctor Who Crossover Manga]] which uses Crossovers to [[CanonImmigrant insert an older sister]] to the [[Manga/FullmetalAlchemist Elric Family]] embedded with [[NightsIntoDreams Ideya]] [[AppliedPhlebotinum Tattoos]] that somehow Flings them beyond the gate and makes their Mother the [[SparedbytheAdaptation first successful human Transmutation]] But when she tries to pull them back home her right arm becomes the EldritchAbomination we've come to know and love. Ed's More or Less the Same, Al left behind a hand and a foot... and Ed Tethers the Now [[UnPerson Non-Existant]] Soul of [[WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddParents Timmy Turner]] to the familiar Armor in the Corner
** Clara Oswald becomes this in-universe and it's lampshaded to heck - although in plot terms it amounts to little more than "explaining" a bunch of old [[HandWave Hand Waves]] with a different HandWave.

* A truly terrible FixFic of the American ''TheOffice'' written somewhere around season 3 features Jim's "best friend" who promptly shows up and hangs around the office for no reason other then to fix everyone's problems. Naturally she gets Jim and Pam, and all the other couples, together. And when she started calling out Michael and Dwight on their character flaws, she started taking away things that made ''the comedy series'' funny!
* Just about half of all ''{{Newsies}}'' fics ever written involve a girl who watches ''Newsies'' and then time-travels back to 1899 via a "magic paper", and uses her knowledge of the plot to remove Sarah from the storyline and hook Jack and David up (or just hook up with one of the newsies herself).

* In the otherwise good ''InvaderZim'' fic (it was on the FanFicRecs!) [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4627351/35/Invader_Zim_The_Series Invader Zim: The Series,]] original character Nick is said to be a Fixer Sue (by ''JohnnyTheHomicidalManiac'', to be exact). It should be noted that [[spoiler: until the end,]] his efforts were unsuccessful, and while he makes friends with most of the canon characters, he also gets his fair share of crap dumped on him too.

** It's not uncommon in ''RanmaOneHalf'' fics for Ranma to have an unknown cousin, brother, uncle or ancestor[[note]]usually on Nodoka's side of the family to avoid Genma having anything cool[[/note]] who suddenly appears and solves all of his problems.
** On the other side, the entire length of canon couldn't solve RanmaOneHalf's LoveDodecahedron, but one mediocre fight with a Fixer Sue collapses the whole thing, quickly and neatly. A great number of fics start off with one of the girls in mortal peril from some new enemy, and it is only after he rescues her that Ranma finally realizes how important she really is to him. Then the majority of the story is actually spent tying off all the romantic loose ends.

* There is a certain ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' fanfic out there which cranks this trope to the highest level. A woman from the "real world" pretty much descends like an angel from heaven into the Magic Box and proceeds to spend chapter upon chapter spouting off about how wonderful [[DracoInLeatherPants Spike]] is, making him out to be the sweetest, most courageous boy ever and verbally tearing down anyone who stands in the way of this new worldview. [[ShipperOnDeck (And the Spike/Buffy ship.)]] This, of course, means that [[DerailingLoveInterests Riley and Angel]] are [[RonTheDeathEater revealed]] as a [[FantasticRacism speciesist]] sociopath and a vicious, egotistical [[YouKeepUsingThatWord pedophile]], respectively. The Fixer Sue flat out says that she hates Riley and thinks he's boring, but gets a thin guise of "trying to help Angel"... for about three minutes, before listing every way he's terrible. (A majority of these reasons are blown way, way out of proportion or just made up "psychological" analysis.) They are exiled by the "enlightened" Scoobies, who may have ripped them apart with their bare hands if the author had deemed it fitting drama. It gets worse after that.

* ''Marauder Shields'' revolves around a Fixer Sue - the titular character appears out of nowhere solely to put down the [[Franchise/MassEffect former]] [[PlayerCharacter protagonist]] who [[CharacterDerailment has become indoctrinated out of nowhere]][[note]]this is based on a [[TomatoInTheMirror long-standing theory in the Mass Effect fandom]] that the fanfic otherwise entirely fails to connect itself with[[/note]], no matter how little sense the Marauder's existence makes. Other characters magically know that Marauder Shields isn't a bad guy, despite having just shot Commander Shepard and having no distinguishing features from any other Marauder.

** And Lets Not Forget that [[http://spoon300.deviantart.com/gallery/31302955 Doctor Who Crossover Manga]] which uses Crossovers to [[CanonImmigrant insert an older sister]] to the [[Manga/FullmetalAlchemist Elric Family]] embedded with [[NightsIntoDreams Ideya]] [[AppliedPhlebotinum Tattoos]] that somehow Flings them beyond the gate and makes their Mother the [[SparedbytheAdaptation first successful human Transmutation]] But when she tries to pull them back home her right arm becomes the EldritchAbomination we've come to know and love.

* A lot of ''FateStayNight'' fanfics will introduce a FixerSue or turn an already existing character into one in order to save Sakura. It doesn't do much for the quality of the fics, or fan opinion on Sakura in general.

* Parodied in [[http://www.asynjor.com/fanfic/ornstead.html Otaku Three - EVA Revolution]], where a dangerously genre savvy MartyStu tries to derail ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' not through sheer badassitude or XanatosSpeedChess, but instead by feigning WrongGenreSavvy until he turns the series into a SuperRobot show.

* The ''VisualNovel/SchoolDays'' short fanfiction ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5152764/1/School_days_The_Guardian_Angel The Guardian Angel]]'' is a non-{{egregious}} version of this, but it is kinda a MarySueClassic and a PairTheSpares fic. Haiko Nai is an 18-year-old trained-from-childhood bodyguard (but otherwise completely normal) hired by a unknown client to protect Sekai, Kotonoha, and Makoto. [[TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot The plot's rather vague in regard as to who the client is or Haiko's backstory.]] Anyway, he infiltrates the school, after a few mishaps quickly becomes friends with them (due to a RunningGag involving sandwiches), saves Sekai from a drunk driver and thus earning school-wide fame, sheepishly suggests that Kotonoha take Taisuke to the festival (whereupon Taisuke immediately confesses his love to her), and forms a close relationship with Setsuna. When Sekai storms off after finding out Makoto was cheating on her, he follows and gets stabbed trying to stop her from killing Makoto. He goes into a coma from blood loss, and wakes up three months later right after being pronounced effectively dead, much to the utter joy of his new friends. Predictably, they lived HappilyEverAfter.

* Every OriginalCharacter or AscendedExtra in CoriFalls's ''{{Anime/Pokemon}}'' fanfiction exists solely to make sure everyone knows how perfect and special her version of Jessie, James and Meowth are and that Ash Ketchum is stripped of any positive qualities to prove what he "really" is.

* In the ''{{Metalocalypse}}'' fanfic [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3918028/1/New_Roommate New Roommate]], Alexis Ofdensen (yeah, she's his daughter; you can see where this is going) overlaps quite a few Sue types, but at her core is a FixerSue.
