WELCOME TO THE OC NEW YEARS CHALLENGE!

Since the winter challenges struck out, we're crawling home. Luckily, the new years oc event is here and hopefully it will be the toast of the town. So before we all have to clean the glitter off the floor after the party, we're going to hold onto the memories of 2023 and looking forward to 2024. This event comes from @aliverse (me) and @elmunson with suggestions and feedback from the OC Challenges & Potluck discord, and it spans from the 26th of December 2023 to the 1st of January 2024. With the hope that you may never become a stranger to the oc community, let's go over the rules and then get to the challenges!

Rules

DO NOT copy others edits, if you feel someone has stolen your edits, follow these guidelines!

If you are doing crossovers, PLEASE make sure that the creator of the other oc is okay with crossovers.

If you want your post to be reblogged onto this blog, it must contain the hashtag onyc23.

Feel free to ask any questions, I promise I'll stay even when your scared, and I'm lost, and you're running away.

Everything is up to the creators interpretation, although I have tried to include some examples for help!

Have fun!

Day One: What A Tangled Web We Weave

On the first day, let's take part in one of my favorite trends this year—web weaving! Weave a captivating web incorporating quotes, images, screencaps, and more for your OC. If you're not familiar with the concept of web weaving, here's an account with a lot of examples.

Day Two: I Polish Up Real Nice

Sometimes we get tired or bored of an oc or an edit, but there still things we love about them. To reignite our love for these things, we're going to revise and revamp. Choose an oc, a story, or an edit to to refine and enhance to its fullest potential.

Day Three: In My ＿ Era

On the third day, let's reflect on the defining periods that have shaped either us or our original characters. Despite the initial impression, and my well known obsession, this is inspired by The Eras Tour but doesn't have anything to do with her.. We delve into the various eras within our OCs' lives, whether categorized by tv show season, movie, age, or any other criteria you can think of. Alternatively, share insights about the current era your in as a creator, like "in my hunger games oc era" or "in my gifset era".

Day Four: Everything New

Now that the studios have stopped being bitches, we can acknowledge all the remarkable releases of 2023 (a special shoutout to the talented individuals who contributed to their excellence). On day four, craft something inspired by a creation that emerged this year, whether it's an entirely new series or just a fresh installment in an existing one.

Day Five: Don't You Forget About Me

Though 365 days sounds like a long time, it doesn't always feel that way. In the midst of our activities this year, some things may have been unintentionally overlooked. Fortunately, there's still time to make up for it. Take this opportunity to craft something for an OC that took a backseat this year, bring to life that edit you've been yearning to create all along, or share that chapter you've been gradually working on throughout the year.

Day Six: In With The New

Let's not do out with the old, but we could certainly do in with the new. For day six, introduce a brand new oc or story you hope to be your newest muse for 2024.

Day Seven: Exchange The Experience

Tidings, tinsel, and a year of beginnings. It's start of a new chapter of our lives, especially for our original characters. Be sure to celebrate this new chapter by signing up for the OC Potluck New Years exchange and spreading joy.

LIV’S OC INDEX 📇 Abigail Lance

ABIGAIL LANCE has been defining herself by her mother’s absence as long as she can remember. Pushing herself to be all her missing parent was not, it doesn’t take long for Abby to become her Aunt Dinah’s sidekick, Tremor. Besides her newfound bonds with Oliver and Roy, Abby soon joins the Teen Titans in fighting crime and shedding their hero-in-training wheels. Years later, she finds the ties that bind her to the team run deeper than she thought. Particularly when it comes to the prodigal boy wonder, Dick Grayson.

INTRODUCING ORSELLA IN THE THE HOBBIT TRILOGY!

Orsella should be dead.

The Durelies were exterminated a very long time ago after all the villagers of Middle Earth decided the dragonriders were too dangerous and their beasts were too difficult to control. Though it was a miracle that somehow a kind ally named Derald took her in and raised her as if she was his own daughter.

While she and her dragon Anbraxas were alive, they were forced to hide from the real world and live far away from the common populations. That is until a certain wizard shows up at their doorstep and offers them a way to reclaim the justice the Durelies deserve. And when they accept to join Thorin Oakenshield’s mission to rescue the Lonely Mountain, Orsella is able to experience a journey she will never forget.

Kat’s beloved WIPS | Welcome to the New Year’s reveal of HEARTS OF STONE featuring THAEDA STONE

“I knew Valemen were proud, but I always assumed it was a kind of pride that made them virtuous,” said Lady Catelyn. “No. Just unbearable,” admitted Thaeda and hid her viciously smiling mouth inside a cup filled with more clarrey.

Zoelie Myers in Wicked Game

Zoelie had spent most her life fighting, It was in her nature. She was used to the weight of a gun in her hand, the gentle scraping from the knife in her boot.

She saw something in their leader, some glimmer of hope beneath all the bad. For Negan, he saw a second chance. She was his new start. But, could things last or will their love just be another fatality in life’s wicked game?

GET TO KNOW MY OCs: Stranger Things edition!

officially introducing my hawkins quad! sometimes a family is just three girls and the white boy they adopted along the way. beth loves her friends and would throw hands at a moments notice, too bad her friends are very divided now that they’re in high school or moved half way across the country. all cam wanted to do was get a check and flirt at the lowest key possible to the girl that worked at scoops ahoy but what did she get? almost killed. at least she got the girl.

tim knows a thing or two because he’s seen a thing or two. one thing he didn’t expect to see was an overgrown frog munching on his cat. thanks dustin. and now cynthia. poor, sweet cynthia. somehow was able to dodge any knowledge about the upside down or russians or a mystery kid with super powers for over two years until her boyfriend gets accused of murder, fantastic.

DIRT CHEAP coming soon!
