DISCUSSION: How many original characters do you have/written?

[Palamon]

I have 104 ocs. How about you?

More coming in June, then August.

i am not 100 percent sure about the definition of OC, but if the definition meant here is character you made up that fits in a existing franchise, i can think of three Marvel ones off the top of my head, and one lego ninjago one. the marvel are mostly spiderman variants, and the lego ninjago one is a ninja for the element of tech that i made before that became a official element. my idea of a tech element was bit different then the official version

Ocs don't have to be fandom based. The term can be used for original work, too.

Oh god too many….. just everywhere…. I should count

Ok, for just in general characters I made up myself, I have nearly unlimited.

Thinking up random characters is what my brain seems to like to do when it has nothing else to do, so there is a nearly endless amount.

How many OC's do I have?...Yes. The answer is just yes.

Narrowing it down to something reasonably countable, the original world I sometimes post about in my art thread has about 30 "main character" OC's spread across three story arcs. The primary villain group has...technically 11 members, though one of them they keep around because of the consequences of letting him go free, and not because he's actually loyal to the cause. But I keep adding to both of those when I get what I think is a good idea. And that's not even touching the supporting characters.

...Yes. The answer is yes.
