To be fair, "self-created DnD character" is accurate LOL. When LXY comes to the Three Kingdoms era, her body is that of her own DnD (Pathfinder) character which she created for a tabletop RPG group—the DM even comments caustically on its annoyingly long name and super-low charisma stat (novel author put up a character sheet for funsies). But yeah she's very much a distinctive character, not a blank-slate self-insert. Feels like an example of "why were the curtains blue?" where the meaning read into it by the article author doesn't hold up imo.
