I gotta build a dnd character for a one shot this Monday and I'm hitting a wall with creativity.

So I'm putting it up to a poll with my favorite options. Winners will make the character, second place will be my backup character in case I die!

Edited to Add: No Druid, because I'm currently playing a Druid in a long campaign and wanna switch it up

And no Paladin/Cleric because the DM said those two might have some "surprising effects" in this setting so I took that to mean it's going to be difficult to communicate with a Holy Patron here jfhfjdjjsjd)

Creating OCs is like eating potato chips.

You can't make just one!

🗡️ Analogies for the poetic

similes for describing characters and their behaviors 🗡️ character inspiration

like the sun, radiant and raging against the far horizon, a clear beacon for others to follow

like a panther in the night, patiently stalking its unsuspecting prey

like a trapped bird flitting about, calling out for any help while nipping the hands that try

like a staircase in the woods, worn away by time, building up to something—somewhere—that not even you know

like a tree felled in a creek, uprooted from your home but still holding up to those who walk over you

like the static on old TVs, ever-present and ever-moving, fading to the background

like a cabin in a snowstorm, a comforting mirage as the world clutches me to its icy heart

like the antique vanity resting in the corner, stable in the dizzying array of things that come and go

like a stained glass window, taking the light you see in others and showing them all the colors within

like the glint of a knife, only there when you look from the right perspective

like a cat lounging in a garden, at peace with watching the world pass on

like reflections in a pond, serene yet obscuring what lies below

like a wound that won’t heal, annoying and a reminder of what happened

like syrup wafting through the air, sweet with a touch of familiarity

like the air after rain, fresh with the stench of earth and dew

like my favorite song, an unmistakable tune of nostalgia and hope to dance to

like the nebulae above, a fusion of stardust and the unknown

like a miasma of sulfur and rot, oozing death and corruption wherever you step

like summer, in all it’s stormy fury and welcome firelight

Little OC Creation Ask List

I am trying to help a friend with their creative block around creating a FFXIV OC. So I thought I might try putting together a quick Ask List on the topic and maybe they would find people's responses helpful. Also it might be interesting to learn about how people approach the creative process!

How did you decide on the sex and/or gender of your OC? Was it important that it was the same as yours? Or the same as what you personally find attractive? Or did it not make much difference either way?

To what degree is your OC a self-insert? Are they in any way an aspirational version of yourself? Or perhaps a way to explore feelings and behaviours you suppress in yourself?

Is it important to you that you "like" your OC (as in consider them likeable)? Or is it more important to create a distinctive character, even if they are unpleasant or evil?

Do what degree did you intend your OC to be canon-compliant? Did you end up sticking to this or did you veer off into unforeseen territory over time?

How important is it to you that your OC is attractive? Does that mean attractive to you personally (sexually or just for purposes of playing dress-up!)? Or do you aim to make an OC over which others will inevitably thirst?

To what degree do you use the OC creation process as a way of exploring your own strengths and flaws?

Is your OC based upon another character or person? Or aspects of several? Is this just in terms of their appearance? Or also their personality?

Do you create the OC first and then the backstory? Or do you have a backstory lined up and then create an OC that will fit this?

Have you ever retconned your OC's story or situation? What inspired this? Did you just fancy a change? Or were you bored with them as they were? Or did you regret your decisions on first creating them?

To what extent does your OC function as a mouthpiece for your own views when it comes to describing their opinions or reactions? Do you quite like exploring how someone with very different values to your own might respond to a situation?

What is your main focus when creating an OC - making a character for yourself and your own enjoyment? Or do you try to create a character that will be popular with others or attract a lot of attention?

How much importance do you attach to humour when creating a character? Are there inevitably comic elements? Or are you more focused upon angst or drama?

Does your OC need to be believable (within the context of the fictional world in which you place them)? Or are you more interested in pushing the boundaries of what you can invent?

How do you want other people to view or react to your OC?

Is there anything you regret about how you designed your OC or their backstory?

Do you have the same OC (broadly speaking) across multiple fandoms or settings?

Did you design your OC with a specific aspect of RP in mind? Such as shipping, NSFW things, attending in-game social events, hosting events or entertaining others?

Has anyone ever reacted badly to your OC? Why was this?

Do you want other people to become invested in your OC? What would this look like ideally?

Is it important to ensure your OC has flaws or negative traits? Or do you try to make an idealised character as far as possible?

Do you want or enjoy your OC having in-game interactions with other people's characters? Or do you prefer to keep things more distant (like Ask Games on Tumblr!)? Or is your OC private and just for you?

How do you feel about others making art of your OC or writing about them? Do you feel like you need to vet their creative process? Or does anything go?

Was there a location in-game that inspired your OC (like Ishgard or Hingashi etc.)?

Was there something in the MSQ or even a side-questline, that inspired you to create them? Perhaps meeting the Sylphs or the Namazu? Or visiting the Unsundered World? Or even something to do with crafting or gathering?

To what extent does their appearance in game match your vision of them creatively? Are there things you wish you could change about them in this regard? Or possibly do, if you knew of a way to do so...

Do you have a voice claim for your OC? Did you have this before you did anything else? Or did you decide on it later?

Which OCs that are not yours do you most admire? What is it about that character that you find impressive or engaging?

To what extent have other people's OC influenced your own? Perhaps in the sense of inspiring your ideas? Or giving you "permission" to create a character you might not otherwise have done? Perhaps a lore-breaking one, or an overtly sexy one, or a self-insert, or a villainous one etc?

What do you try to avoid when creating an OC? Are these things you dislike in other people's OCs? Or purely your own personal preference?

What is your favourite thing about your OC or OCs? Is there something about them of which you are particularly proud?

To what extent does it matter that you are being "original" when you create an OC? Or is it OK to base them on an existing character or celebrity, so long as you enjoy it?

If you're stuck for ideas when creating an OC, what do you do to inspire yourself? (if you never have this problem, then what would you advise to someone that did!)

Is there an OC you would love to create in-game, but currently you are unable to do so, perhaps because that race is not playable or that sex is unavailable (hello female Hrothgar)?

How many OCs do you currently have? If you have multiple OCs then how different are they from each other? How often do you create new ones?

What things do you most want to see in someone's OC? Or what do you always find the most interesting? Or stimulating, if you're in that sort of mood?

When you try to make an intelligent oc from an academic background, but you’re a dumb-dumb and don’t understand smart people things

Hey everyone! Since we had so much fun last time with the creation of Grem(drawing below), I was wondering if we could create another OC together! Thank you!

If anyone wants to be tagged in the results, leave a comment below! I'll be more than happy to do so^^

Hopefully by the end of this, we'll have a full fledged blorbo to cherish and adore

And of course, as promised. Our darling Grem, in their full glory:

Enjoy! ✨

EDIT: POLL IS NOW COMPLETE!!! NEXT ONE IS IN THE REBLOGS. Let me know what body type you'd like to see!

Honey Beest's WOF OC creator!

Kingfisher the Skywing/Seawing.

He can breathe Underwater and breathe fire. He is Part of the Skywing Royal Family after one of the princess's slept with a Seawing lmao. He is very Smart and Elegant, but is also very full of himself and barely cares about anyone else (except for maybe a certain Leafwing)

Venus the Leafwing

He has Leaf speak. Born on Pyrria, he was raised in the Rainwing Village after his Parents disappeared, before he grew up and went to serve as a personal Bodyguard for Kingfisher. He is very strong both physically and emotionally, along with being very supportive and kind, but he is a bit clumsy!

This is Vibro, a bunny who has the ability to stream music straight out of his ears!

No OC is built in a day. It takes time and care in order to make a compelling character. Hell, I didn't think of the origins of one of mine until months later. Same story for another one of mine with their core traits. There is no need to rush.

[puzzled-pegasus]

how come it's always "who is the top and who's bottom" and not "when they ride a horse together who sits behind whom"

[raccoonnutella13]

yeah sorry the oc that you created as a one-off joke now serves as a deep symbolism for your real-life insecurites and traumas. yeah no youre gonna be clutching at your chest and dying because the oc is your newest blorbo and all you can think about is putting them through Even Worse Horrors. sorry in advance

Tbh I love other people’s ocs. This is an oc stan account, and an oc stan post.

I appreciate the strength and courage of conjuring up some fake person from the recesses of your mind and just throwing them to the wind and seeing if they’ll fly. They’re all ✨special little guys (and gals and theys)✨ who live in another realm- an imaginary, magical world somewhere between your imagination and your written words.
