Allow me to explain. While DMing, I have a bit of an odd self insert. I am an inexplicably floating piece of burnt french toast slathered in peanut butter, known for short as 'The Toast'. The toast is invisible to everyone most of the time, besides the exceptionally silly characters that I have given the ability of 'metasight' to. At times the player characters may temporarily gain metasight for around 10 seconds, just for the Toast to nonverbally communicate that what theyre doing is a TERRIBLE idea.
Why is this the form I chose? When have I ever seen french toast with peanut butter put on after it was burnt? Good frikin question!! Im going to be honest, I completely forget where the idea came from or why, but its now ingrained into my games. The Toast is a being beyond the powers of anything in game, and is now what I am in spirit and embodiment.
Feel free to discuss what odd and similar inexplicable nonsense forms you would take as a DM, or ask any questions about the Toast and I may answer!

That sounds like an amazing self-insert. I have a few similar things but they aren't the exact same:
The Grim Sweeper is Death. I've talked about him a lot before but he is Death and has overlapped through many of my worlds. If you die, you might see some other psychopomps depending on the setting but Death will always be the Grim Sweeper. He can be pretty meta at times.
When I was around ten years old I created a game that was pretty much Dnd but without any mechanics. I had created a magical castle full of cryptic hints and mysteries about the castle's maker who was a time traveling mage named Yankedoodle. We really enjoyed that game and Yankedoodle became a figure of legend among my siblings and our friends to the point where they started creating alternate versions of Yankedoodle in their games and stories. Then a year or two ago we started a campaign and I played a character named Yankedoodle. He was a war forged lore bard/clock work soul sorcerer who was a living jukebox that played 80s rock for all his spells. Eventually, he discovered that he was a defected robot explorer who was created to catalogue and record all of creation. He later went on to become the spymaster for the Summer King of the Feywild, the Steward of the Unseelie Court, and the god of dreams. And he was the muse for Rick Astley inspiring his greatest hit, the rickroll. That was probably his greatest achievement. We ended that campaign in our last session but this character has been around in some form or another for so long that he is bound to comeback. I've already made plans for him to show up in the Southern Gothic campaign I'm DMing.
Now if I was actually going to create a deliberate self-insert, it would be some sort of clown. Some strange fool who knows much more than he really should. A jester that can see the characters lives for what they really are, a story.

Jevil from Deltarune, the bearer of this leitmotif, is a hidden character who seems to know that he's in a game and actively breaks its rules and comments on them. He's an insane jester character and is deliberately cryptic. He got a ton of love from the fandom before chapter 2 came out and Spamton pretty much took Jevil's place in the hearts of most fans.
