OCs?

Post by gforce »

Couldn’t quite find a topic for this outside of RPing threads, so here goes.

Y’all got any OCs you’d like to share? Ones you’re using in a roleplay, or others you don’t really use a lot?

Asking out of curiosity, and because I’m working on my own and kinda need some tips on how I’m supposed to put together a character of my own.



If there’s already a thread for this please lemme know.
That sounded better in my head

I have tons and tons of OCs but I don't post them because I can only flesh them out in my mind if that makes sense. Plus I come up with a lot of throwaway ones also. The one enduring one that I have here is my Pekingese Elena based on my real Pekingese dog Pia.

OC means “original character.”

Gotta move this conversation over to Not The Comic since it doesn’t really belong here. New thread is here: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5440

Usually people who don't roleplay won't know what it means. Because they don't need any characters to roleplay as!

OC does not just refer to RPing, OC just means a character you created. It is much better suited to not be in fanworks.

And thank you for moving the thread!

That is true but since I usually just use the characters I make to RP and nothing else that is where my mind rushed off too. I don't think I do anything else with my OCs.

Well, with all of that settled, I guess I can close this.
