#oc tropes

[syistoppedgivingafuck]

i need a character that has that stupid eyes closed and holy trope, but like instead of this character being holy and kind and gentle and loving and the reason their eyes are closed is because of some power they have, the character is a really snarky fucking bitch that calls everyone expletives every time they open their mouth. the reason their eyes are closed? "y'all are too ugly to look at, fuck"

✨WANNA FOLLOW SOME OC LORE?✨ - PT1

Pleased to introduce my OC and MC of my WIP comic - named Fig!🌳

Having entered a pact with a god, Fig can no longer die. This means that they will absolutely abuse this ability on their travels because, of course, they are facing no consequences on their actions. However, the pact ties them to a quest and that quest needs to be fulfilled someday. Once it is fulfilled, Fig will be forced to kill the god with whom they have entered the pact.

Why should this story interest you?

I'm cool

Fig's cool

You'd be really cool if you follow this story

Found family trope

Queer representation

Thank you - until next time!

+ Looking for art moots!!<3

I created a WoF OC bingo chart! Because I've managed a ton of WoF RPs and I've picked up on a looot of patterns. Feel free to use this!

Not making fun of any of these tropes!! My own characters fall into a lot of these as well. Look what happened when I tried this out with Alias:

[mollyjimbly]

im just feeling amazed at the internet and how anyone can make a story and then a whole multiverse can grow from it, so many different ideas and au's and gorgeous things and memories. you can practically build an entire universe right inside your head.

im looking directly at you humans are space orcs ❤️ /pos

[angelfacemjj]

Found family, but with the thickest layer of racial context in it. That's it, that's the trope.

[mehsquid]

Ironically, if ur short irl, you are most likely one to create giant OCs and if ur tall, you make shorties...pls don't kill me

i can't express how absolutely important it is that when you make an edgy, brooding, badass character who's tough as nails and good at fighting and whatever, you HAVE to give them at least one reason to become completely helpless and pathetic. you have a panic attack quota to fulfill.

[rae-butter]

Honestly, I love it when characters relapse. When someone who’s gotten over their anger issues falls into a situation so out of their depth they fall back on their old habits. When someone who’s learned to open up becomes a recluse again in order to cope with something outside their control.

There’s just something so horrible, so toxic, about watching a character grow and then slip back into their old selves in order to cope, bc you know they still care, that they’re the same inside, but watching them hurt so hard they don’t know what else to do brings a sense of catharsis.

[not-avril]

The trope I appreciate very much

[the-resting-grounds]

I raise you: OC’s who are scared of cars/vehicles who, for whatever reason, needs to travel extensively.

Ultimate road trip from hell. Bonus points if it’s with other people so the OC has to keep it from them and not let the fear get in the way.

OC’s who NEVER stands in front of a car, even if it’s not on, who always a little too tense crossing the street, who flinches when cars fly by a little too fast, too close.

[uhhsnail]

I love a character raised to be a weapon as much as the next guy. But what really gets me is a character raised to be a shield. Who can’t fathom being needed—or even being wanted— beyond keeping others safe. Who believe they are alive only to insure someone doesn’t die. no matter the cost. Characters who self-sacrifice not because they think they deserve it, but because no one else does deserve it, and it’s their job to protect.

Characters who’ve been told that’s why your important. Your worth something because this other person/ thing is important, and you are here solely to keep them safe.

Bonus points if it’s not a legitimate job they’ve been given. Maybe at one point it was, but now that they are free from it, they haven’t given up that mentality. No one is forcing or asking them to do this, but they need to. They need to in order to be deserving.

[just-prompt-things]

best trope and you can fight me over it (i abuse this so hard with my ocs)

[kudo-i-guess]

they're divorced. they weren't even married. this isn't romantic. they're definitely not platonic. they're cinematic parallels. they are fighting the narrative. they slowly built their relationship. they rely and trust each other. they were aggressively thrown into this. they want to bite each other's head off. they kill for each other. they live for each other. they should kiss. they would put each other in a blender. they're insane. they don't even realise. they're fully aware of it.

[urfriendlywriter]

15 sweet/romantic gestures !!

(feel free to use!! the lover girl in me when writing this > <)

occasionally pressing soft kisses to ur temple or cheek [melting]

caressing their cheek and they nuzzle into your touchhhhh T T

their eyes fluttered close even after the kiss has ended.

^ their gaze that meets you is full of pent-up longing and affection !!

a hint of shyness creeping into them when u tease them [💳‼️‼️💳‼️💳]

hugs where they nuzzle their face into your chest

^ "can we stay like this forever?" tears

intimacy of eye contacts, slow kisses, cheek touching !

a quiet, whisper of "i am so proud of you" ✯

"you take such good care of me," is mumbled as they look up at you, drying their hair, their eyes shining with unshed tears, love and adoration. (CRY WITH ME PLEASEEEE)

tucking a small flower behind their ear <33

when they bury their face in ur chest while cuddling !!!

"I am falling in love with you every. single. day." ♡

a flustered "you smell like me.. oh god, it's driving me crazy..." mumble as they pull u closer into a hug [ksksjdnsks]

"marry me, my pretty baby." but u r cuddling and giggling. "I'm your pretty baby now?" they ask, shyly smiling. "yea, u always been." AAAAH
