I wanted to make my own prompt list for OC-tober to use for a video and thought I'd share the list if anyone else wants to do it! :D

It's a double feature this October here at the Prompt Foundry with both OC-tober and Prompts That Go Bump In The Night.
For OC-tober, let's celebrate the blorbos from our brains! Write about, draw, or otherwise share and have fun with original characters of your own creation!
Feel free to combine different days' prompts with each other, or combine them with other events, like Bump In The Night or events from other communities! You can even check out last year's OC-tober to see if you might prefer some of those prompts.
If you use this list, please tag me here @thepromptfoundry, I’d love to see your writing and art and learn about your characters!
Respond to as many prompts as you want or as interest you, don’t worry about missing or skipping any. Remember, this is supposed to be fun!
If you have any questions or musings, check our FAQ, and if you don't find your answer, shoot me an ask.
Plain text list below the cut:
1 Getting up in the morning 2 Going out on the town 3 With their partner(s) in life, crime, whatever 4 In their youth 5 Learning something new 6 Alone with their thoughts 7 Alone with their body 8 In a moment of triumph 9 Struggling with something 10 From the perspective of someone who loves them 11 From the perspective of someone who hates them 12 Getting dressed up fancy 13 Spending time with family 14 Waking up from a nightmare 15 Giving comfort to another 16 Exploring nature 17 Interacting with an animal 18 Saying goodbye to someone 19 Interacting with a child in their life 20 Presenting as a different gender 21 Enjoying a nice drink 22 Taking a well-earned break 23 Reading by candle light 24 Reflecting on their past 25 Mending fences 26 In a different time period than usual 27 In a different genre than usual 28 Being silly 29 Sharing a secret 30 Cooking up treats 31 Celebrating Halloween!

May i ask what makes the mandatory prompts mandatory?
the 10 mandatory days are a support structure to help everyone make it to the finish line!
i'm not sure how well it comes across, but my intention is much less "you have to do 10 WHOLE DAYS" and much more "you are allowed to skip 21 WHOLE DAYS"
i want as many ppl as possible to make it to the end of the month feeling accomplished instead of burned-out, and in the half-a-decade ive been running events on tumblr (longer if you count the events i've only run irl or in groupchats before that) this is the best structure i've found to help ppl achieve that!
too many mandatory days— too much pressure i missed a few days already... i gotta rush and catch up on them, or im gonna fail! but now im exhausted and grumpy and i wanna quit (this has happened to me)
not enough/no mandatory days— not enough structure i missed a few days already... but i can miss another one... and another one... and another one... and another one... and another... oops the month is over! (this has also happened to me)
10 mandatory days (about ⅓ of the month)— just right! i missed a day... but it was optional anyway so i can skip it! now i have a few days to take it easy and prep for the next mandatory day!
i also make sure to space the days out fairly evenly, so everyone participating the minimum amount still gets to try all the different themed weeks too!
some of the weeks are always more popular tho, so they get more mandatory days — fun and games week is easy and everyone seems to like it... so it gets 3!
and specific times of the month are where i notice a lotta ppl starting to get tired/quit events so i put less mandatory days there — week 4 is a common drop-off point so it only has 1!
#asks#long answer sry... im replying to this while also semi-addressing some similar asks ive gotten so i wanted to cover a few bases here#bweirdoctober#bweirdoctober2024#bweirdoctober 2024#oc-tober#oc tober#oc-tober 2024#oc tober 2024

OC-tober day 26: Cosplaying as Bridget
(prompts)
Happy birthday, Bridget! I came out to my family 2 years ago today, in honor of the character whose theme song finally broke my egg :^)
(feat. a rare appearance from one of my few OCs predating sorXa, Nikolai Greypaw, who's changed even more over the years than sorXa has)

OC-TOBER 2024
Day 10 - From the perspective of someone who loves them (x)
December 1990
Day 11 - in a meme template (x)
1987 - came out of the Fear Vault a little wrong…
Day 12 - Fancy outfit (x)
1991 Graduation Ball
(she lost a bet and wore this pink frilly thing)
Day 13 - Having some rotten luck (x)
1985
On this rotten day, Freyja (in order) so far
only got two hours of sleep
tripped over Knick and got carpet burn
found a fresh angry pimple right between her eyes
was having a bad hair day
dropped eggy toast on her cardigan at brekky, and didn’t know Scourgify
got her bag stolen by Peeves and it took 20 minutes to get it back
ended up being late to Potions and lost 10 points for Ravenclaw
Day 14 - Injured (x)
✨ yes she has! ✨
She broke her arm in the summer between 3rd and 4th year (broomstick accident), and in 1996 she got hit by a car and broke her ankle or leg, I cant remember which.
She hasn’t broken a bone while in school, I don’t think. If she had, then her friends (depending on the friend) would range on the spectrum of doting attention (Penny) to fully taking the piss out of it (Jae).
