What about characters occuring in multiple fandoms in the same 'verse? Example: Galadriel is tagged in 277 complete English 1000+ word fics, so she'd be ineligible, except that she occurs in three different fandoms (The Silmarillion, The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and for the latter two AO3 splits them again into all media types, books only and movies only, plus these may overlap and there's a Catch-All for J.R.R. Tolkien - Works), so would probably qualify as rare in the different fandoms while not being a rare character per se. Is she eligible?

TW - Lydia Martin

[elizabeth_rice]

I'm a Lydia Martin fan and trust me she's a rare character. There aren't many femslash stories featuring her in TW but the most popular ship is Allison Argent/Lydia Martin. Again, there aren't many het stories featuring her but the most popular ships are Lydia Martin/Jackson Whittemore, Lydia Martin/Stiles Stilinski and Lydia Martin/Aiden. You can cross-check with these. The bottom line is that there aren't many fanworks that feature Lydia Martin as the main character. She is always a secondary character or belongs to a secondary/background ship. That's why she appears in so many fanworks.
