1. Noun; nouns coming before it often act as adjective ("Warhammer 40,000 Fanfiction"). A story based within a pre-existing world, which may or may not include canonical (canon) characters as major or minor actors. Usually also includes non-canon characters, commonly referred to as OCs among the community. Though technically canon characters are also OCs, stories that focus majorly or entirely around OCs are considered 'OC fiction', or 'OC stories.' Many OC stories allow readers to submit their own characters to the story, though it's wise to do some research before hand to avoid having your character butchered.
There are many fanfiction writers out there who do genuinely amazing work with fanfiction, especially with stories which involve no canon characters. It's very difficult to butcher a canon character's personality if they're not present, and it's fairly easy to remain true to lore in most cases.
Unfortunately, there's also a lot of horny idiots who write fanfiction so that they can see their favourite characters having sex, even if there is no way this would ever happen in the source material ever. There's also a fair amount of fics that turn otherwise well-rounded characters into complete Mary Sues (see the fanfiction written for Homestuck's Vriska--actually, don't; I don't want to responsible for making anyone cry), or which completely ignore established canon in favour of headcanon.

1. Fanfiction.net is full of both excellent and terrible fanfiction.
1. I was about to read the Homestuck fanfiction, but then I saw the words "All Vriska ever wanted was to have friends" and threw my computer out the window.
1. I submitted my carefully thought-out, asexual, sociopathic serial-killer OC to an OC story. Three chapters later, she was rescuing babies from wells and kissing random girls, and I was contemplating suicide again.
2. The close-minded asshole refused to even contemplate reading fanfiction, because he thought the above examples were all there is in fanfiction.

Get the Fanfiction mug.Kind of like a Chick Magnet... only it's a fictional character that is stereotypically known to make teenage girls squeal and shriek at first sight. Extra points if they're a badass, anti-hero or rough past. (Moar bonus points if they're trying to leave it behind.)
1.) Shadow the Hedgehog's low voice, cool demeanor and dark attitude made him the new Fangirl Magnet in the Sonic franchise.
2.) From day 1, we knew that Yami Yugi, with his lower voice, attitude and addiction to leather, would make him the resident Fangirl Magnet.

Fangirlioma is a rare disease that usually targets fan girls. Don't worry, it's only Sans Undertail fan girls that make cringe content on YouTube. Animations using Flip-A-Clip have a higher risk of Fangirlioma.

Get the Fangirlioma mug.A natural body-enhancing maneuver named and created by the creators of Alphaholics Non-Anonymous Art Studios (www.alphamediaworks.com), wherein the female posterior is enlarged, widened, rounded and made more pleasantly plump by an average of 3-5 times it's original size and girth, as per the exertion of pressure by said woman's male lover (or reasonable facsimile, thereof) as a result of the man placing his erect member just within the "crack" of his lover's posterior (thus, resembling a hot dog between the bread of a hot dog bun), and then pressing vigorously onto the two sides of his lover's posterior with maximum upper body strength for a minimum of 25 minutes to an Hour and a half.
I used the Frankenfurter fanny manuever attributed to Alphaholics Non-Anonymous Art Studios on urbandictionary.com, and My girl's booty didn't just grow like a mere frankfurter, but it seemed like it had a life and mind of it's own...like a Frankenfurter Fanny!!!
