Tips for a usable OC sheet

Limit the palette to four colours. It keeps every drawing consistent and makes the character recognisable in thumbnails.

Give one signature feature. A single memorable shape or mark beats five accessories.

Pair every strength with a flaw. Likes and dislikes are fun, but the flaw is what gives the OC a story.

Need ideas first? Roll one in the OC maker, design a face in the avatar maker, or get a shape-and-palette prompt from character design ideas.

Questions

What is an OC template?

An OC (original character) template is a fill-in sheet for a character you invented, often for fan art, roleplay or webcomics. It records the details you need to draw and write them consistently: pronouns, design, palette, personality, likes and dislikes, and backstory.

What should an OC sheet include?

Basic info (name, pronouns, age, species), design notes an artist can follow (build, hair, eyes, signature feature, outfit, colour palette), personality with a flaw and a quirk, and a short backstory with a goal. This template has all of those plus six fun questions.

Can I use this for a fandom OC?

Yes. Fill in the "fandom or original world" field. Keep the OC itself original: give them their own name, look and history rather than copying a canon character.

Can I generate an OC instead of filling it in?

Use the OC maker to roll a complete original character with locks and rerolls, then copy the fields you like into this sheet. The "Complete with AI" button below also fills the gaps from whatever you have written.
