Dee Rhymz is a different take on the "Mary Sue" trope; and a boy described to be overly attractive and multi-talented, yet with an attitude and unhealthy fixation on women that makes him despised by everyone he meets. Created by VampireMeerkat.
His life story exists out of two parts; the first where he is his hated self and doesn't mind this, and the second where he's an adult and lives out his full potential as a music-, movie- and sports star. He's abandoned his old habits and focuses on being the person others want him to be, though is ironically unsatisfied with his success and knows his fans wouldn't have cared for him if he stayed his old self.
Dee is stuck wondering if changing himself was a mistake or things should be as they are now.
Wishing to explore more pleasures in life, he starts dating and falls in love a few times, though the relationships always end with some sort of betrayal from the woman's side. Dee is considered a "trophy wife", and when he learns his own fanbase has turned the act of swooning him into a competition among themselves, he decides to lead a double life and look for friendship as an undesirable person.
He takes on a disguise and acts like his familiar self again, the negative responses of others strangely lifting his spirits.
Though his intention wasn't to find love again, he meets up with a woman named Marie at a Dee Rhymz fanclub he accidentally gets recruited for after helping out with their cover band's street performance.
Dee made his first online appearance at Deviantart on April 12, 2008.

Dee is a satisfied outcast who always has an inappropriate remark or request ready for any woman he comes across. He draws strangers in with his good looks, but people fully acquainted with him rather avoid him. Even so, Dee isn't a villain or qualifies as a bad person, and has more in common with a bad comedian high on teenage hormones.
He has a general love for women, no matter their age or looks. Despite his hobby of trying to pick up girls, he won't pursue a disinterested "victim" after the first no, nor will rejection change his happy mood.
While Dee has no friends and his family is ashamed of him, he enjoys life in its fullest and is hardly seen without a smile. Sadness and anger are emotions not familiar to him.
As a teenager, he's full of himself and believes to be the definition of perfection, even though there's never been a girl who liked him for who he is. He thinks the world has a crush on him and is mostly deaf for insults, unless it comes from a man.
All in all, he's a care-free character who only sees what he wants to see.
His personality would suggest he's a textbook problem child, but Dee's grades at school are higher than anybody else's. He never receives praise for it, though, and his arrogant behaviour causes him alot of trouble with teachers.
While Dee dislikes school and authority, he doesn't necessarily dislikes to learn. This helped him acquire his many talents.
Appearance
Dee is Surinamese, like his parents, but bears no resemblance to them and looks more Romani or of a specific Mediterranean ethnicity. He is 16 years old.
Dee's eyes are bright-green, his hair is naturally straight, and in most artwork his nose is shown to turn upwards, though not consistently so. He's sported many different hairdos, but his signature one is a mullet that covers his right eye. The main reason he grew out his hair is because he wishes to mask his rather big ears, which he considers his only flaw.
He wears a red shirt, black trousers, and black sneakers.
Family
Dee's parents (2009).
Dee has a mother, father, 3 sisters, and 4 brothers.
His parents and siblings shun him and go as far as calling him a freak of nature. They too fall victim to his perverted humor and his existence alone is a hurtful reminder of his parents' worsened relationship, as Dee's strange looks earned his mother the accusation she cheated on her husband. After a DNA test confirmed he was their son, they both tried to forget.
Dee chooses not to get upset over the angry glares he gets at the dinner table.
