The original [[Mary Sue]] archetype to gain wide recognition, from as early as [[King Arthur]]'s Galahad of the Sangreal. [[Incorruptible Pure Pureness]] is the theme here.
Line 19:
See also [[Mary Sue Classic]], the fairly specific and extremely common plot format that uses this character type exclusively.
