A Self-Worth Reality Check (With Lore Points)
Because being the quirky sidekick in your own story is getting old
You keep showing up for everyone else’s quest, but who’s helping you slay your dragons?
This quiz is your chaotic little mirror. Are you starring in your own life? Or are you just playing a background role in someone else’s?
It’s time to audit your plotline. Rewrite your character arc. Maybe, finally, stop being the unpaid emotional labor intern of the group chat.
Ready to find out if you’re the protagonist or just providing coffee and comfort to someone else’s plot twist?
🧙♀️ Poem for the Plot Armor
You were born for thunder, not applause
But still you shrink, and clutch their flaws
You patch their wounds, you light their way
While yours stay bleeding every day
Main character? Or stagehand ghost?
Let’s find out who’s lived you the most
🎮 Who This Quiz Is For:
- People are constantly giving advice but forgetting to take their own

💌 Love Letter to Yourself
Dear You,
I know you’ve been showing up like it’s your full-time job to fix everything. But it’s not. Your story deserves airtime, too. You’re not here to be a plot device in someone else’s healing montage. You are the plot. You are the storm and the sunlight. You are overdue for a soft place to land that doesn’t need you to explain why you’re tired. Please stop ghostwriting everyone else’s life. Yours is begging to be written.
Love,
Your Inner Main Character
