and i dont want her to be evil either if thats ok.
is that a book? or a story?
(in my real life im a overweight trans woman with autism, tourettes & OCD and it seems like every fictional story protagonist is super-capable, like theyre always a genius hacker or a ballerina or somthin. meanwhile i live in a supported living environment and i cant work a job and im on antipsychotics so im not very smart or beautiful or capable. i would like a protagonist thats more like me!!!! ugly, stupid, cant do much but at least knows to be nice to ppl when shes not havin a meltdown).
dosnt matter the genre, i just dont want it to be horrifying or grimdark or stuff like that.

Oh, I bet you will like Nettle and Bone!
Psalm of the wild built features a nonbinary character who isnt a super genius, just very kind. A very cozy, lovely story
Detransition baby by Torrey petters might not be exactly what you’re looking for as the main character grapples with their identity and detransitioning is an aspect of the book. However, I thought this was a really insightful work and beautifully done.
I would say the trans characters in this book (there are multiple beyond the main character) are not overpowered and instead represent real flawed dynamic people.
Friends of Dorothy by Sandi Toksvig.
The Witches series, Discworld. Definitely start with Wyrd Sisters. (They aren’t evil.)
Both of these books feature all kinds of women of all ages, both are great!
