Line 1:
Amy Barksdale is the youngest sister of [[Helen Morgendorffer]] and has often appeared in ''Daria'' fanfic as a support giver for [[Daria Morgendorffer]]. Her role and appearances in various fanfics are many times greater than her appearances in the series (three total).
 
==Fanfiction Portrayals==
==Common Fanfic Stereotypes==
===Saint Amy===
The most common stereotype, particularly in fanfics written just after Season Two. In the TV series, Amy Barksdale had a special relationship with Daria, offering her advice and moral support because in certain ways she appeared to be a grown-up version of Daria herself (see "I Don't" and "Through a Lens Darkly"). This element iscan be taken to the extreme in some fanficfanfiction, leading to the archetype often called "Saint Amy," in which Amy rides in like the cavalry to rescue Daria from bad situations.
