H-How Do You Come Up So Many Idea For Your Ocs?? I Have One OC And Theyre Basically My Self Insert But

H-How do you come up so many idea for your ocs?? I have one OC and they’re basically my self insert but I didn’t give them a name yet let alone a backstory and personality lmao 🧍🏻‍♀️😭

🤣

Bruhhh it took me SO LONG to come up with these ideas. If it makes you feel better, I’ve been working on (most) of my OCs for ten years. It just takes time. Think about the world/setting they’re in, and go from there. Give them good and bad traits. For example;

In my world magic is illegal and Mages are either killed or taken away by Royalists to an unknown location. John is a really good fighter, which is useful against Royalists and other such problems. However, John is also a hothead who loves to CAUSE fights as much as he loves to finish them.

Blake is an ok fighter, but he spends wayyy too much time forming plans. Like, he can’t fight unless he has a game plan, and when you’re a wanted man who runs the risk of getting cornered wherever you go, that’s not a great quality to have. However, his plan-making skills are extremely good and can be useful at the right times. He’s also AMAZING at reading/making maps, while John is awful. Their differences are exactly why they’re such a good team. They balance each other out.

These are basic characters qualities, but they’re a great place to start. Once you have a basic character, it becomes easier to add on to them and made them interesting, complex people! Do they struggle with inner demons? Chronic pains? Mental illnesses? Do they have children or other loved ones? Are they loners? Do they have pets? A favorite food? A least favorite color? It’s all up to you to round them out, but trust me, as daunting as it seems it’s also really fun :)

here to tell u that you're enough and valid and im proud of u for making it this far <3 keep going !!!

I’ll certainly try, thank you 💖💖💖

♥︎♡︎ send that hearts to blogs that are amazing just like their owners!!

🥺💖

If you could have an endless supply of food, what would it be?

Hmm… Bread. I freaking love bread and I’m not embarrassed to say it. It’s good. Good bread.

I have but a 2 questions for you to answer, the oc is of your choice:

1. Any signature items? A weapon, piece of jewelry or clothing that they use or wear on the regular

2. Any inspiration behind the character, doesn't matter how mundane it is, if you made the character because you really liked this one thing then heck yeah 👍✨

Eek! I love questions about my OCs 😆

The OC I’ll choose to use for these answers is Hanya- a half-human half-shapeshifter. Shifters are seen by most as nothing but animals, and half-shifters are hated just as much. Most shifters have been captured and made into nothing more than messenger birds who know almost nothing of life beyond their cages. Hanya, however, has seen the outside world, and has even made friends with humans. One in particular, Ekward, who is the Queens personal guard and apart of the Rebellion. He shows her kindness and friendship, and the two fall just a little bit in love.

Hanya has a small golden hairpin that she always wears. It’s from Ekward, and is one of the only gifts she’s ever received. She cherishes it and does her best to keep it in good condition. If it were to ever break or get lost, Hanya would probably break down a little. After all, that pin didn’t just represent a gift; It represented future freedom and happiness.

I really like the idea of shapeshifters, and while working to create a shifter character I made Hanya! I imagine she’s very level headed and is the only thing keeping Ekward from going insane while he pretends to be on the Queens side. She balances Ekward’s cold, unapproachable personality with her warm welcoming one. Ekward is in a dangerous situation, sending whatever information he find out about the Queen to the Rebellion, but Hanya helps him keep himself together.
