* The adventures of [[Ranma ½|Ryouga Hibiki]], he might be an important recurring character, but he also has an ability to [[Fanon|cross oceans and dimensions]] as easily as walking through a door and more than once makes reference to his own adventures that ''don't'' revolve solely around Ranma. Where does he go, and who does he meet, what wacky adventures does he have on his own. Only fanfic writers know for sure. All we know is he often wears [[Draco in Leather Pants|Leather Pants]] during them.
Line 21:
** The Hogwarts founders. These fics are mostly a vehicle for demonstrating that fanfic writers have [[You Fail History Forever|absolutely no concept of how different life in 1000 A.D. was]].
*** One particularly [[Egregious]] example had Ravenclaw's [[Mary Sue]] daughter catching a train to America, renaming herself Granger and becoming Hermione's ancestress. '''''[[Epic Fail|Where]] [[Critical Research Failure|to]] [[You Fail Geography Forever|start?]]'''''
** Characters who are little more than named, providing perfect Self-Insert material, especially among the Slytherins. Aside from Blaise Zabini (who fan writers made a porcelain-skinned girl for years, until he was revealed to be a black boy), we have Astoria Greengrass. Name known only by [[Word of God]], she's {{spoiler|Draco's future wife}}. Cue [[Possession Sue|Possession Sues.]]s.
 
 
Line 36:
* Mini-Jack, the clone of Jack O'Neill who appeared in one episide of ''[[Stargate SG-1]]'' and was never mentioned again.
** The [[Noodle Incident]] mentioned in the episode "Emancipation" in which Carter drank something which apparently caused her to partially or completely strip. Fuel for [[Shipping|shippers]], naturally.
* ''[[iCarly]]'' featured a one-episode, badass, smoking hot [[Gamer Chick]] named Sasha Striker. She's kinda like Lilah from ''[[Ctrl+Alt+Del]]'', shares some [[Foe Yay]] with Spencer, and finishes the show by giving him a big sexy kiss before leaving.
* Recent{{when}} ''[[Power Rangers]]'' biggies include: The [[Power Rangers Operation Overdrive|Retro Rangers]]' extended offscreen period of action, [[Power Rangers Dino Thunder|Conner's brother]], previous teams [[After the End]] in the ''[[Power Rangers RPM]]'' universe, and any departing team to keep their powers.
* [[Hikari Sentai Maskman|X1 Mask]], the Ranger who appeared only once.
* Irene Adler and her assistant Kate from ''[[Sherlock]]'', who are very much a [[Gender Flip]] equivalent of Sherlock and John (only with the white-hot [[Ho Yay]] actually being acted upon.) Thanks to Irene's line about "liking detective stories, and detectives," it's not hard to assume she wriggled her way into Scotland Yard on a freelance basis the same way Sherlock did.
