A lot of my favorite gens are more for why I created them rather than necessarily the result. Like this one, created over in /stg/ when asked how you'd include a Mary Sue NPC (because the entire concept originates from Star Trek, after all).
>I think if I was going to do it, I'd have the character named Ensign Danica Wood, and the plot would be around the PCs slowly figuring out that her past is totally fake, her Starfleet career was faked, everything about her is totally made up, and the PCs are mostly trying to figure out if she's a spy for the Cardassians, the Dominion, the Romulans, and the PCs eventually expose her...
>...turns out she's a Douwd, but a very young one. This is her first time trying to masquerade as a humanoid and she just doesn't have the hang of it yet (hence the name: "D. Wood"). She's actually completely harmless, but outing her does mean she has to go and craft a new secret identity.
>I think I'd then have her occasionally show up in an almost Q-like role, in that the PCs will occasionally be doing something and somehow bump into her latest identity and either help her, or she can help them, or they might be at cross-purposes (like if her latest disguise is as a Romulan or Breen or something - "sorry, but the Subcommander said I have to get to that artifact first! It was nice catching up, though!"). Maybe the PCs could even occasionally help build her confidence.
