#oc pride challenge

[oc-challenges]

WELCOME TO PRIDE CHALLENGE 2025!

Hello guys, gals, nonbinary pals, and every other lovely person in this community! The time has come once again for pride challenge, now in a time where we need pride in our LGBTQIA+ communities more than ever. Check out the last day of the challenge to fill out the form to enter the exchange! BIG THANKS to @come-along-pond for being such a big helper and supporting me throughout the absolute nightmare of a few months it has been, as well as coming up with the brilliant culture idea.

Rules

This challenge is for LGBTQ+ ocs only… hence why it’s called the pride challenge.

Tag your posts with #opc2025 in order to have them reblogged. (please do not tag any non-challenge related edits with this)

DON’T steal edits. If you feel your edit or someone else’s has been stolen, report it to our submission box by following these guidelines.

If you want to make a crossover edit with somebody else’s oc, make sure the other person is okay with crossovers.

Feel free to send us any questions and keep in mind that all challenges are up for interpretation.

Be kind!!

WEEK ONE: IDENTITIES

Day One (June 1st): Gay

Make something for an oc that identifies as gay!

Day Two (June 2nd): Lesbian

Make something for an oc that identifies as a lesbian!

Day Three (June 3rd): Bi

Make something for an oc that identifies as bisexual and/or biromantic!

Day Four (June 4th): Pan

Day Seven (June 7th): Gender

Make something for an oc who is not cisgender!

Day Eight (June 8th): Anyone Else (Or Again)

Make something for an OC who is LGBTQIA+ in a way we missed in previous days, or take the chance to do another oc who identifies with some of the previous prompts!

WEEK TWO: PROMPTS

Day Nine (June 9th): Terms of Endearment

Make an edit or write about the term(s) of endearment your OC calls their love interest, or the other way around!

Day Ten (June 10th): Live/Life

Show a moment where your oc embraces life, even if it’s messy, bold, or scary. Or show some of the most important moments in their life.

Day Eleven (June 11th): Revelation

Your OC discovers something important about themselves or their identity. What do they realize, and how does it change them or the way they see the world? Maybe a certain someone helped them come to this revelation?

Day Twelve (June 12th): Joy

Show a moment where your OC feels truly happy. What brings them joy, and what does it look like when they let themselves feel it fully?

Day Thirteen (June 13th): Reclaim

Your OC takes back something that was taken from them—like their name, identity, life, confidence, or a word. What are they reclaiming, and why does it matter to them?

Day Fourteen (June 14th): Pride

Your OC feels proud of who they are. What makes them feel confident, strong, or seen? Show a moment where they stand tall and own their identity, their journey of finding pride, or what pride means to them.

WEEK THREE: QUEER CULTURE

Day Fifteen (June 15th): LGBTQIA+ Visage

Choose a queer visual artist (painter, photographer, fashion designer, sculptor, etc.) and make something for your oc using their art, whether that's through writing or edits!

Day Sixteen (June 16th): LGBTQIA+ Writers

Choose an LGBTQIA+ author, poet, or playwright. What would your OC think of their writing? Create a scene, moodboard, or quote-based art that reflects their connection.

Day Seventeen (June 17th): Pride On Screen

Celebrate LGBTQIA+ film or television. Base your OC’s look, vibe, or a short drabble on a queer movie/show or character that resonates with them.

Day Eighteen (June 18th): LGBTQIA+ Music Icons

Pick a queer musician or band (past or present) and create something inspired by their work. How would your OC connect with this artist’s music or vibe?

Day Nineteen (June 19th): Queer History

Pick a moment, movement, or figure from LGBTQIA+ history and imagine how your OC would react to it—or how they’d fit into that time. Would they be marching at Stonewall, creating zines in the '80s, or finding kinship in underground spaces?

Day Twenty (June 20th): Role Models

Maybe you want another chance to highlight someone from the previous challenges, or maybe your OCs connection to queer culture and their queer role models are a fellow oc or character in their canon universe. Either way, celebrate the queer icons who helped your oc connect to the culture, accept themselves, or someone they aspire to be too.

Day Twenty-One (June 20th): Freedom for Joy

Celebrate any other aspect of queer culture-- perhaps your ocs pride outfit/celebration, your ocs drag persona, their coming out, or anything else you can think of!

WEEK FOUR: RANDOM

Day Twenty-Two & Twenty Three (June 22nd & 23rd): Alternate Universes

Put your OC in a different world, fandom, or setting—fantasy, sci-fi, historical, anything fun! Show how their identity stays true, no matter where they are.

Day Twenty Four & Twenty Five (June 24th & 25th): LGBTQIA+ Tropes

Tropes are a ton of fun, and there’s a trope for basically everything! Take a look at this list (or come up with your own) and apply them to your ocs!

Day Twenty-Six (June 26th): Survival & Strength

Share how one of your ocs navigated homophobia or adversity.

Day Twenty-Seven (June 27th): Before & After

Show their transformation in self-acceptance.

Day Twenty Eight & Twenty Nine (June 28th & 29th): Wave Your Flag(s) High

OC Pride Month Challenge

OC Pride Month Challenge 2024

Day 1: Lesbian

Emily Elizabeth Yates

I know this comes a day late, but I've had a busy weekend. This is my first time doing a Pride Month Challenge. I haven't written much about Emily, as I'm still developing her. Em is the younger sister of Molly Yates in The Molly Yates Chronicles, which I'm currently reworking. While Molly can be drawn to the more magical and fantastical elements and strange occurrences in the Whoniverse, Emily tends to follow science and technology. Her love interest will be Sky Smith.

This week is all about throwing your LGBTQIA+ ocs into alternate universes! Maybe you want to give your favorite ship a classic meet-cute in a coffee shop, maybe you want to explore a romance that you didn’t make canon, or maybe you just think they would make a really great celebrity. The possibilities are endless! Whether it’s a modern-day setting, a historical period, or a completely imagined place, take this opportunity to reimagine your LGBTQIA+ OCs in new and exciting contexts. Let’s see how they navigate different worlds, face new challenges, or find love and friendship in unexpected places.

OC Pride Month Challenge 2024

Day 3: Bi

Josh Parker

Josh is a supporting OC in my Cobra Kai fanfic Never Knew. He is the second son of OG Cobra Jimmy and his wife Jenny. Josh is the brother that my main OC, Alyssa Morgan-Parker, feels closest to. I've always known that Josh was bisexual. He has had a few boyfriends and girlfriends, but he's probably been in love with his best friend and bandmate Zack for years. Josh is interested in all aspects of music, as well as books, comics, and video games.
