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 roles and appearances in fanfiction are many times greater than her appearances in the series (three total).
==Character Overview==
Amy Barksdale is the youngest [[Barksdale]] sister, behind [[Helen]] ([[Daria]]'s mother) and [[Rita]].
She wears glasses, clearly has mild amounts of psychological damage imposed upon her by her family, is impatient with stupidity, and possesses a deadly sarcasm. Sound familiar?
Indeed, to paraphrase something the [[Canadibrit]] once wrote in a fan fic, Amy is the best indication that Daria is related to these people. That is likely the reason why she has appeared way more often in fan fiction than she has in the series (3 appearances total).
In "[[I Don't]]", she attended [[Erin]]'s wedding, and escaped with Daria to get cheese fries and, more importantly, implicitly suggest that there's a place for one of Daria's mindset in the real world after all.
In "[[Through a Lens Darkly]]" she gave advice about Daria's wearing contact lenses.
Finally in "[[Aunt Nauseam]]," Daria called brought her in to mediate between Rita and Helen. Amy ended up, predictably, only adding more fuel to the fire.
Beyond these 3 appearances, we know almost nothing about Aunt Amy.
==Fanfiction Portrayals==
Presumably due to her similarity to Daria, Amy proved to be very popular for fan fiction writers, despite her appearances in the series being rare and ambiguous.
