An OC maker that gives you more than one picture
An OC, or original character, is a character you invent yourself: their look, their personality and their story. Most character creators stop at a single image. This one designs the whole character: full-body art in the style you pick, a character reference sheet with a turnaround, six expressions and an extra outfit, and a profile card with a name, personality, a short bio and a catchphrase.
Character art costs 9 credits and the profile card about 5. The reference sheet is 168 credits for all three parts. No subscription. Pay per run, and failed runs refund credits.
How to design your OC in three steps

Make a character reference sheet
A character reference sheet keeps a character consistent from drawing to drawing. Yours is drawn from the full-body art, in the same style: a front, side and back turnaround, six expressions (smiling, laughing, determined, surprised, sleepy and thinking) and one extra outfit. The sheet you download also carries your character’s name and a color palette strip taken from the art.
Made with Nano Banana 2.1Each part is drawn separately and laid out in your browser, so if one part comes out wrong you redraw just that part.
AI character description generator, built in
Every character gets a profile card written for them: a name, a one-line role, three personality words, a two or three sentence bio, a catchphrase, three likes and how they would greet you. It also writes an English description of their look that stays with the character when you save them. The card is laid out in your browser with the art and the palette, and downloads as a PNG.

Original characters only
This is an OC maker, so it designs characters that belong to you, not copies of characters from anime, games or films. If your description names an existing character or franchise, you’ll be asked to describe the look in your own words instead. Every character is an adult, and outfits stay fully clothed in every style.
Tips for a better OC
- Pick one strong signature detail, like a scarf, a hat or a tiny companion, so the character is easy to recognize.
- Use the color picks: a clear three-color palette reads better in every style than many small colors.
- Write what they do, not just what they look like. A role gives the profile card a story to work with.
- Pixel art and cartoon work best with simple outfits. Busy armor and long capes read better in fantasy painting or semi-realistic.
- If a part of the reference sheet comes out wrong, redraw just that part.
