I think the narcissism is there; it's merely expressed OOC by positioning themselves as authorities and the correct arbiters and gatekeepers of acceptable RP instead of IC through their characters' actions. I have to make a distinction here between knowing the lore because you care about it (please don't hurt me Sounssy) and knowing it because knowing it gives your claims regarding correct RP authoritative weight. It's a vanity more likely to show up in things like shaming blogs and tumblr posts than in RP itself.
Of course, now I'm interested in what a lore-compliant Sue would look like, using the loose internet definition of Sue as "Overpowered character I don't like."
