Implying official characters were never made by an actual person. |

How to make a not-shit OC pony:
Don't be an asshole or attention whore. Know how color works. Know how character building works. ??? Prophet! |
| Bladylol #1374654 2 months ago |
And nobody who has an OC knows those rules |

local OriginalCharacter=ents.Create("male_fim_pony")
OriginalCharacter:SetPos(Vector(0,0,0)) OriginalCharacter:SetNiceness(1) OriginalCharacter:Spawn() OriginalCharacter:Activate() done :D |

Most importantly.
DON'T ship them with the Mane 6. They belong to everyone. |

The problem I have is the color palate and the name. I came up with what I thought was cool, but it turned out to be a fat male unicorn version of Daring Doo. I know that in the show they sometimes repeat color schemes, but an OC should try to avoid that. |

RandomFanguy@1374661 said: I'm okay if they ship their OC's with any of the cast as long as it's not a self insert, and there's a really good story behind it, and it's not completely forced and doesn't break the characterization... you know what? Forget it. |

Pick non-existing colors. Good luck with that one.
Or draw a circle. Imagine how cool a circle would be among ponies! Use natural colors. Make a mottled coat pattern. Rasta mane. Ancient symbol for cutie mark. ^Not all of them on one pony. Whatever you do, you will realize that your oc has been made. A bit later you will realize that it still sucks. So far I've seen only three (or so) good OC's. Surprisingly they have personality too. |

The reason why so many OC stories suck is that if you're a writer and want to write a story you actually don't need any additional characters. Especially on a show like FIM where a lot of characters can be interpreted in many ways. So a lot of people think that adding an OC will cover up their bad writing skills, which it doesn't.
And then there are of course the whole Mary Sue/Self insersts etc. |

I have the most problem choosing a cutie mark. I pick a kite for my first one, and he was a unicorn, so I made him as a the guy who makes/holds sky diving/parachuting/kite flying competitions and events. He would build small contraptions to help flightless ponies glide to even fly around a little bit so they can see what it's like. Didn't turn out so well. |

Congratulations, you just made a normal, not terrible OC. |

This is how to make a good OC, that was actually shipped with a mane caster member... Well. That's how to OC. |
| Bolan #1374871 2 months ago |
^ I agree. Ficksitup is one of my favorite OCs and that's one of my favorite Applejack fics. I just wish it didn't update so slowly, |

There's an OC named Ficksitup?
That's german for Fucking sit-up. |

Step one: Ignore anyone who will always hate all OC.
Step two: Learn the difference between OC, random ponies and background ponies. |
