Is he a femboy?! I love him


Alert-Common-7774

Not really. Although if I had a coin for every time someone thinks they're a Femboy. I would have 2 coins, which is not much. but it's funny that it happened twice.

Mark_Scaly

Well, it’s an obvious fact that it’s easier to empathize a character who doesn’t have powers than a character who does. Easier to associate.

Like Clementine here with her bullpup rifle.


tygrysu-44

yesssss


Alert-Common-7774

Yeah Clemetine!


EggplantReader

Mhm, Clemmy without her glasses, but with gun!


Alert-Common-7774

It never hurts to carry a gun, just in case. - A rule that I apply to almost all my OCs.


EggplantReader

Mhm, that's why all my OCs has guns! ~~and a direct communication line to the nearest air traffic controller that'll send a pair of A-10s thunderbolt to precision strike the enemy asses.~~


Alert-Common-7774

It sounds amazing and Slightly Excessive. I love it!!

Glad to hear you love it!

Like yeah, it's cool you shoot lasers out of your eyes or you're half wolf.... like that kinda design is super saturated, and i feel like your post won't get many views if your OC doesn't have cat ears or some sh\*t 😂😂😂

He is the assigned human partner (and boyfriend) to Isidor Godzikov in the Red Army. Sapar is half Kazakh and half Uyghur and he loves to write and discuss poetry like Isidor does, plus he is a religious Muslim :3 Sapar is usually introverted and a little distant from his fellow comrades but in story he is definitely more open when Isidor is with him, often joking around with him when he feels like it. He does NOT like talking about his origins before the Russian Revolution and joining the Red Army as he feels such small talk is “unnecessary” and it is clear that Isidor knows something about Sapar’s past that the rest of their comrades in the Red Army do not. I still need to figure out some stuff for Sapar like what type of weapons he wields and etc :3


tygrysu-44

that part of history is very interesting! unique character too


Living-Price-314

Thank you!! :D


GALAOFTEETH

One of my characters is a Greek dude with schizophrenia that got his eye fucking stolen, and he just lives his life, no powers, just repressed historical homosexuality.


DavidJayR

Sev_nDog

Yup, most of my ocs are pretty much just regular people with guns, and the ones that do have powers are relatively tame :D https://preview.redd.it/di0vdhd9g48d1.png?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a8252d688fb9ff1353b6f325462acf466e1088fa

The_Nerdy_Pikachu

Hell, when I have an OC that looks entirely human, there are design elements I put in that make them stand out. For Yikinal, it's a huge scar where her eye used to be plus sleeves of prison tattoos she got to connect back to her father, Odin. For Octavia, it's an eyepatch that covers up a mechanical bit she has for an eye.

Ferrous_Patella

Boring or drilling, either is cool!


Insanity_Drive

Ppyeo is a regular human, or "Earthborn/Pureborn". She's the medic of a crew called The Backdrop, and she's probably the only "normal" one since the rest either have cybernetics, powers or aren't human/completely human. She can fight as well as the others, but mainly sticks to patching them up. Oh, and she's dating the crew's boss, a possibly immortal woman by the alias of "Keeper". https://preview.redd.it/1r7z2y2k358d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=77ebfe8a6f28bdf9d18b8c40715979850a5a7695


Tagalong4

Yessir- honestly, I find them more interesting and compelling than the really powerful/godly ocs 99% of the time. Nothing wrong with those, but idk there's something I love so much about the little guy against impossible circumstances, who never gets stronger in any significant way. He just sticks to his guns, makes allies, learns skills, gets beat up a ton, and finds his way out somehow. Pretty much Samuel in a nutshell.


tygrysu-44

Heck yes!

tygrysu-44

honestly, felt :/


DeanziYay

But honestly, I have a TON of non-human characters or characters with crazy powers, so I feel like you always have to have some sort of balance

I have a couple more, but in the universe developing everyone is very boring and normal lmao. I still have a lot of fun coming up with their stories because I know how to compensate


AlternativeAd9298

Mine is complicated… he’s a regular dude but uses a breathing technique (inspired by JJBA) n it’s gives him some advantages and powers too ig. Only if he keeps a steady breath. He also uses his wits n personality to win most fights https://preview.redd.it/b4aw2bgnu48d1.png?width=808&format=png&auto=webp&s=7a6814e1b08c059d44f94cbc1560cb713790b287

On that note, I’ll make one eventually, it might just be human Angel, but who cares?

PrincessofAldia

Only like 5 of my OCs actually have powers, though one is from my fantasy world where magic exists. Other than them my OCs pretty much are ordinary humans, Amariah (who I have plans to draw her soon) well she does live in the same universe as the 4 Elemental Daughters, she doesn’t have powers instead relaying on her abilities like marksmanship,

Most of my OCs are just normal boring people on the inside but my favorite part is design so none of them are completely human 😞


sivanhe

Bean is one of my favourite OCs, and they're just a normal human. The two most "unusual" things about them are their name (which is really just an online alias, they probably use smth different irl) and their hair (which is dyed) https://preview.redd.it/a3zcsl1jq68d1.png?width=850&format=png&auto=webp&s=d84e2617b8aca5d13a38f48d1f474ce5cfb2c15a

Low_Dingo8611

My OC, Luna is an average human being thrown in a shitty situation. I made her as "normal" as possible


CardBoardBox_Man

Oh absolutely - overpowered, over designed OCs just rely on design, but for a supposedly "boring" character, the creator has to actually do some work to establish a character, and that makes them so much more compelling.


tygrysu-44

I think so too but I guess the perk of fantasy OCs is that their bring attention to themselves because of their design alone. Human OCs don't have that but when they're interesting, they're interesting.

Although she still lives in a world full of ppl with powers and stuff. And Spark is also a normal human(I don’t have a good picture of her), and she’s a Pokemon trainer.

They're all regular people with barely anything special or unique about them, and most of them are either idiots or pretty terrible people. But it's their reactions to the stuff happening around them that makes them entertaining, as you can put them in any weird scenario and there's bound to be something funny out of it.

I value intelligence and experience above most everything else. Allegiant Admiral Wise is just a regular old human, and while he has a robotic hand, it doesn’t do much for him by way of extra functionality. He’s gotten to the point that he’s at - a hero of three separate wars and leader of the Galaxy-wide military - through sheer skill, experience, and intelligence. Sure, he may have used some dirty tricks here and there, as well as made a few risky maneuvers as a pilot at heart, but these were all within the bounds of what a normal human is capable of.


ImSoDeadLmao

agreed! my OCs' universe is just the future so there's no magic or anything there, they're all just normal humans👍 OCs don't have to be a fantasy species to be interesting


cute_sheep2

I can never write a simple human character even if they have no trauma they are not human since I love fantasy too much even dark fantasy is my favorite. My only human is literally cursed to be undying and has hypermobility issues (he can move his body in unatural ways due to being able to remove them but they pop out easy and can hurt)
