Reading fanfiction about a character you created is like watching someone touch your wife, yes. And not in a fun Tickle-Me-Elmo kind of way. Not that I mind people touching her, really. We have an open marriage. I just don't want to watch it happening.
It can't possibly be that bad can it?...Here take this excerpt, I am sure it won't hurt at all

It became instantly clear that Morrigan was fighting for her life. Flemeth had unleashed an 'Arcane Assault', an unending wave of magic attacks.
It was a sight no child should ever have to witness...
Charge after charge Morrigan had to defend, each one seemingly greater than the next.. She was fighting with every fiber of her being not to be overwhelmed.
Ikuku lounged at Flemeth in desperation, sailing through the air like a missile to break the witch's concentration and stop the attack.
As he surged toward her the gold outlines of a repulsion glyph rose from the floor like an impenetrable wall, knocking him backward. He crashed hopelessly into a shelf at the far end of the room.
When he rose, he could see that his fall had caused Morrigan to lose focus, Flemeth's attacks had penetrated her defense, she was now absorbing the arcane blasts
Then for the first time in his life he heard Morrigan cry in pain.
Time seemed to stop for Ikuku. In that moment of threat to his very existence he reached within himself for an answer. In that moment also a response from beyond brushed at the fringes of his desperation.
Meanwhile, sensing her advantage against Morrigan, Flemeth reared her energies for a massive finishing blast. Consumed by her focused rage, she did not anticipate what came next
Amid the crackle of arcane fury, out of nowhere and everywhere, the atmosphere was suddenly penetrated by the uttered words:
"Estatis Horume"
Silence
A tremor swept into the air extinguishing all magical energies in the vicinity and beyond
Morrigan stared in bewilderment as the accumulating Nimbus of Power around Flemeth dissolved into thin air.
For a being possessed almost entirely of magical energies the shock was catastrophic
Flemeth screamed hideously
