The OC isn't evil 8.I'm just stating how Courtney Thompson created her Sonic OC, so you can't use my step by step, how to make a OC. Your just gonna recreate SNT
Hi! I'm happy you like Laura's design. (the brown colored echidna character). It kinda suprises me to see this older design again as i am still redesigning and developing her haha.
Oh awesome! Cool that you actually saw this video. :) Yeah Laura was actually one of the fan characters that I liked the most out of all the OC's I saw, so I thought she would be a good example to set for others in this video. I really liked the style you chose for her for this piece, it was really neat. And it's pretty cool that you're still developing her, will be checking out your future work! :)
Thank you very much for the compliments! This specific image is actually a collab with someone. I commissioned them for a Sonic X-styled lineart and colored it myself. The one who made the lineart is Noble-Maiden, she is really talented! I really recommend that you check out her gallery :)
How to make an absolutely hilarious Sonic OC 1: Create character as usual 2: Make it go super with just 1 emerald 3: Make the character allergic to emeralds 4: Make the character friends with NiGHTS This is how I made my third OC. (1 and 2 were also like this but allergic to pollen instead)
Knight of the Wind Also, it must be VERY allergic. Not like **single sneeze** allergic, but red spots, itches, sneezing, coughing, and hurting eyes allergic.
My OC used to look like a green Sonic but because I had finally stuck with the design I had I refused to believe it was a recolor. Really it was just a green Sonic with a T-shirt and shorts, a slightly smaller tail and no back-spines
Step how to make a real sonic oc 1.think what is your favroit animal and if you want to use it as an oc. 2.get a simple formate to use to start your drawing or use pics of characters body shape just DONT draw any hair or cloths with detail yet. 3.start drawing some simple ears and tails then slowly give texture and make it nicer if you have trouble just use pics of ears or tails for help or go free style i dont care. 4.start drawing the eyes,mouth,and nose dont worry about colour yet. 5.draw simple cloth outlines and then when its simple slowly add texture and feutures to it by know the character will look more normale. 6.know this is when you can start drawing hair (Hint:use shapes first then start to turn it into hair conecting and erasing any unwanted lines). 7.yay your finnish all you nead to do is colour yay fun fun but before you colour it in you may want some coppies just in case of axidents like dark lines you cant eraze or smoges trust me if you make mistacts easly this will save your drawing yay just dont forget the name,backstory,and powers. p.s thanx for readding my comment i've drawn lots of oc's and stuff i just never put them on internet.
thank the lord!! I followed every step to this before i even read this comment! This is great for when people need some help with their OC's. We need more people like you, who actually know how to make an OC.
Addition to Step 1: Try to think of species that you haven't seen yet in the Sonic Canon like say for example: Tarantula, Anaconda, or a Griffin just to name a few
+That Guy I can understand where you're coming from, but unfortunately it seems like the Sonic Franchise is the one exception where the fandom CAN ruin the games for people. Take for example this whole original character thing. People get really annoyed with fans making all of these poorly designed and unoriginal fan characters, and they've got every right to their opinion. But the problem is when people look at official Sonic characters like Shadow and Silver and start saying things like "Oh, look at them, they're just as bad as Sonic fan characters" or "Shadow and Silver are just fan characters that got a budget and were made official!" Now because of this, everyone starts hating on practically every character since Tails came along, and Sega have to appease these fans by making Sonic the only playable character. Heck, even Sonic himself doesn't get off scott free with people whining about his design and personality because it doesn't live up to these "fan's" insanely high standards. Even the new customisable character in Sonic Forces is getting hated on and made fun of for no legit reason other than it reminds people of this weird stigma that only seems to exist in the Sonic Fandom. This kind of negative thinking is not the way forward and it really can hurt the franchise.
My oc is from a parallel dimension, and parallel Eggman edited her so that she had super high IQ. (I'm not saying it's good, my friend came up with it. It's still a work in progress)
I don't hate Sonic OCs, not even the bad ones. Because I think that every OC needs a chance to become good when their creator becomes more mature. Look at Courtney, the creator of SNT ! SNT is that kind of OC that everybody loves "because she's special", as Courtney says. And now, she managed to make a whole and a good reason for that without changing anything from the lore of her original comics. And that's great ^^ These OCs are the ones who start the love of creation of these people, and they need recognition for that.
I made an OC because of Forces. It's a raccoon(because I love making characters with markings, and she is not related to Marine), she wears a short singlet paired with bright blue denim shorts. She wraps a scarf on her neck and covers herself with a cardigan, she wore knitted cuffs and a pair of fingerless gloves. She wears high tops shoes. She has markings on her face that makes her look like she have eyelashes(she doesn't have eyelashes, I find it as a neat design). She had fur sticking out from each side of her head with 2 tufts(the amount of tufts are optional, depending on drawing styles, picture it like the hair on the side of the red wolf/custom hero from Sonic Forces). I made a boom design for her as well and matches it with Boom's method of redesigning characters, however she unintendedly has similar looks to Sticks the Badger, she doesn't look completely alike but some ideas were similar. I tweaked Sonic Boom's idea of sportstape and my OC wears an unfully wrapped sportstape, so the sportstape on her elbows area were hanging out, her hoodie(which replaced the cardigan) is wrapped on her waist and her scarf was replaced with an acorn necklace(because I had the elbow sportstape things already). The cuffs on her hands were replaced with the enerbeam watch(that's... what it's called?) on her right hand and a high tech ring bracelet on her left(I just noticed that Sticks had a ring on her left arm, and again I do not intend my OC to look like her) one. The markings on her face split into 2, which makes her look like she have 2 eyelashes on her eyes. She still had the short singlet but her denim shorts were changed into black shorts which was partially covered by the hoodie wrapped on her waist, her legs are longer(typical Sonic Boom) and was wrapped with sportstape(not her entire legs), she wore sports shoes this time which still looks quite similar to her high tops. The only thing she kept from her Modern counterpart was her fingerless gloves. Her side fur has plenty of tufts this time, imagine it like the hair on a lion's tail. She doesn't really have any powers(because, trying not to make it cringy and learning from my past OCs, to be more specific, fan characters that aren't Sonic related.), so I had a few ideas of gadgets for her, some plans was giving her a satchel full of gadgets, it would also improve her design, or either hide the gadgets inside her outfit. Her Boom counterpart has a high tech ring that allows her to project an interactive hologram weapon, which currently the only weapon she could only project was a bow, even if it was her left hand wearing it, the ring could project the arrows on her left hand to fire, making easy combos on enemies(basically an excuse because the Sonic Boom characters wore their enerbeam watches on their right wrist, and my OC is right handed), charging the bow for a moment by pulling back the elastic beam will cause the beam to glow brighter meaning it's charging energy, that allows my OC to fire much powerful arrows towards enemies. I also made a classic version of her, but to get the classic vibe, I had to use Classic Tails' eyes and centered tiny triangle mouth, then gave my OC a zipped up jacket and a skirt, also giving her simple shoes tied up with long socks that goes up to covering her knees(she had to curl it a little because it was quite long). She had gloves covering her hands and wrists entirely, exactly like Sonic's. But she doesn't have her scarf. It makes her look like a kindergarten/first-grade. Also, she only have one tuft on her side fur. Also, she's too young to have a gadget. I had a Dreamcast version of her too, she wore a t-shirt with a short cardigan but long sleeves. She had similar gloves to her classic counterpart but this time some part went under her sleeves(which was too long and she had to curl up onto her wrists), she had her scarf too. She wore skirts and her socks this time goes as long as under her knees(she did curl it up too). She had sport shoes but not the same as her Boom Counterpart. The tufts on her side fur goes up to 2(depends on drawing style like I said). There were no gadgets planned for this version(yet.. maybe?).
I tend to ignore the bad ones overall but the ones that capture my attention really fascinate me! Personally, making a ton of Sonic FCs actually sharpens and hones your skills as a creator. Just to see where my creative juices would flow, I actually created tons of FCs based on animals I liked (a few of them hybrids). At first, I was satisfied with my result but as I became more involved with a similar creative community, my creative process started to change and after some time looking back on the FCs I had created, I either scrapped some or turned them into background anthro non-Sonic characters but kept several vital ones. Now while I know it's frowned upon, I did create 2/3 of the characters to be shipped with canon characters but I didn't want to just slap them with said characters so naturally, as any good writer should, I gave it my best to balance out everything per character in addition. I love working on backstories for characters so I chose the species thought long and hard about what kind of stories these characters would tell; even if they dated a known character. I also attempted to make it work within the universe, too. Whether it be powers, personality, shipping, lore, etc. I have a best friend who hates FCs so very much. She thinks they *all* suck (hence why she hates the comics, stating they are all Mary Sue FCs). I disagree with her standpoint but I must have done something right if she doesn't complain about my current FC. Heck, I even got her to make her own simple FC for RP purposes only. In retrospect, hers is quite simple, as she prefers so it works out pretty well. My very first Sonic character was a blue-furred and teal-spotted leopard named Kat the Huntress (even though the name sucks, I think it still has a nice ring to it). She had wings, talons, a scorpion stinger, and eyes that changed colors based on mood (I gave this trait to my Chameleon Sonic FC because it fit better along with her backstory). Kat was really just a RP character I used when on long phone calls with an old friend. It was therapeutic because even though she was part of a universe I loved, I used her in a RP setting that allowed other universes I liked; such as Halo and Naruto (yeah, she was pretty much a gun-wielding Sonic-character Ninja). I've since scrapped her and recreated her from the ground up. Originally, she was just a Snow Leopard with no real background story in mind. But she started off as being simply a venue to explore my love for the franchise and fascination with Sonic, the character, as a whole. Shortly after I completed her story and settled on a real name (like, the third or fourth time), I realized I had changed as I wrote the story (not to mention I rushed the ending because I just wanted to finish it so badly), not only did my interests in characters change, but I also gained a yearning for self-expression and true creative freedom. So I decided I would write a new story with the same character but give her life. Funnily enough, it all started when I was looking Inuit words just for fun. This one restless night of soul-searching led me to create the most elaborate backstory I've ever written for a character ever. She was more than a character to ship with a canon character, she actually had life and depth. I've had a handful of people praise me for her realism. And It's all thanks to nights working tirelessly to make her nearly perfect (by that I mean balanced!). Anyway, I didn't want to spoil anything in case anyone was actually interested in seeing her design and backstory. Appearance: natakiro.deviantart.com/art/Frostfire-the-Cheopard-Reference-Gift-603235688 (This was a gift from a close friend of mine :3) Profile: roseofthenight4444.deviantart.com/art/Frostfire-the-Snow-Cheopard-Sonic-FC-Profile-593512597 (Her backstory is at the bottom)
7:12 Now, that Badger character looks pretty good! He looks unique, but still looks like he comes from the world of Sonic the Hedgehog, and I would like to see more characters like that in the games! I prefer stuff like that over characters like Shara, Chip, The Deadly Six and most of the background characters in Sonic Boom, that's for sure!
I have a good backstory for my Sonic OC. LOGAN: Hello. my name is Logan the hedgehog. One year ago, I was exploring the whole Green Hill zone, until I came across some weird look water. It's kinda orangish red. When I came to get a better look at it, I feel in drowning. Luckily I managed to reach to the surface in time. An hour later, I was catching my breath and look at my fur. My fur was completely red and my body feels like it was on fire. Then a second later, flames came out of my hands. I was a little shocked about this.... could this be a gift from the heavens? To be continued...
I think Sash Lilac from Freedom Planet used to be a Hedgehog instead of a Dragon before, and where the inspiration comes, Freedom Planet it's a good Sonic clone I ever seen so far :)
I remember my first Sonic oc, She was a fennec fox named Demeter and she was essentially just a nice lady I guess??? She didn't have any powers, nor did she go on adventures, She simply lived a quiet life and worked at a bakery she ran. it wasn't bad for my 12 year old self.
An oc I created is basically a what if scenario, but into an actual being. That being, what if Eggman wasn’t evil. His name is Dr. Henry Pecko, he’s a gray Eagle, and unlike Eggman, who desires to use the Chaos Emeralds for evil, Pecko does not desire to use them, rather to study them. In his youth he was an archeologist, and first stumbled on the tales of the emerald when excavating an ancient Echidna tomb, it is there he also found a staff which he would use for combat. Like Eggman, he would create mechs, but once more unlike Eggman’s, Henry’s mechs are more in line with helping others, rather than world domination. One thing about the doctor, is that he is not a huge fan of Sonic and company as he feels that Sonic does more harm than good. This would change gradually over time, as one day, Dr. Pecko would find a Chaos Emerald on his way to an excavation site of an Owl’s settlement, and would be captured by Eggman, who would discover the Emerald’s location. Eggman would be foiled by Sonic and friends, and would rescue the doctor, who is of course not too thrilled of being rescued by the team. As time passes, Henry would grow fond of the team. Tails he would get along with the quickest due to the Fox’s vast intelligence. For Amy, her spirit would remind Henry of his daughters, Emma, and Tanya. Though he is fond of Knuckles, for Knuckles is in the doctor’s point of view, the last gateway to a field he spend his entire life studying, Henry feels though he has the weakest connection with. As for Sonic, Henry would learn that even though there have been massive consequences to the Hedgehog’s crusades, he admitted that a world without Sonic would have been worse, and that the boy has a great heart. Especially when it came to his friends; which now included Henry, whether the old Eagle liked it or not. After helping the team defeat Eggman, Henry would become a contact for the team whenever they needed a helping hand, whether it be through contact through Tails machines, or even in person; as in Henry’s words, it would give him an excuse to get out of the house.
Fun OC Power Idea: The "Prism Wispon", a wispon that can switch between different wisp powers at a moment's notice, with the drawback of having severely reduced effects. It's versatile, but not overpowered.
My oc had a giant metal muzzler fuzed onto her skull by rouges she tried to outsmart. This disability lead her to eventually learn telekinesis, but the metal still makes it hard for her to breath and eat. She often takes breaks from using her powers to meditate and recharge. This character is a Tasmanian Devil, which are known to bite when attacking in the real world. This is another disadvantage of the metal cuff, preventing her from using her natural power, and forcing her to use a harder technique in order to survive.
No no no, roasting would be like “This OC is so badly designed and unoriginal that it’s not even worthy to become an NFT.” He’s stating the flaws with Sonic OC’s and how people can improve them.
i was playing a sonic oc game on roblox, and i came across this thing called "ICE SONIC", and the description was this: MORE POWERFUL THAN EVERYONE AND CAN FLY wow
I like sonic ocs. There are so many and a lot of them can be unique. The recolors are just a minority. The female ones, design wise are the best to look at since the female ones tend to have more customization to them.
Something you forgot, there's too many hedgehogs, seriously we have enough official Hedgehogs as it is, why not try animals that haven't been seen in the Sonic style very much if at all like raindeer, wombats or seals etc.?
Mine is more of gaming OC but he has the Sonic design. His name is Robert Decev, a supposedly normal gamer and Sonic fan who saves the world in a Secret Rings Styled story. I would explain the backstory, but it's hard for me to put it in a nutshell.
I created a Sonic OC in a Roblox game called Sonic Pulse and I love her- Her name is Maya btw and I couldn't really choose whether I should make her a cat or a hedgehog so I made her both. I even created a separate human character called Aria Brown (she's a young scientist who loves tea, is always tired and specialises in genetic modification) and kinda weaved her into Maya's backstory. Basically, she was created by Aria (Aria felt like creating a Mobian friend because she was kinda lonely) and sees her as a mother figure. In case you're wondering what Maya's personality is like, she's kinda got a similar personality to me lol (aka she's just a very chill introvert who is kinda able to make friends easily) Also, in Sonic Pulse, I created a super form for her. She does have fire powers, but she can only use them in her super form =w= I'm just really proud of myself for making a Sonic OC that I actually like besides this other obscure edgelord kitsune I created called Soul okay-
I have one that I thought the backstory was pretty decent. He's a royal hedgehog who went out to play with his friends one day. The weather got bad and a blizzard occurred. He hit his head on a rock and got amnesia, now he has to find his way back home without knowing anything about himself with his new friends from a different place. Pretty weird huh?
My OC: Name: Decibel Species: Wolf Age: 16 Description: Light gray with icy blue eyes (the one eye thing), cobalt blue boots, a watch, a Mohawk, and scars all over. He is an anti-hero, and is kind of a psycho lunatic, but he means well. He speaks in a Scottish accent much akin to Soap MacTavish from the Call of Duty games. Backstory: Decibel the Wolf was raised in the bitterly cold tundras of Siberia. As such, he is used to the bitter cold. When he wasn’t playing outside in the snow, he was listening to metal and its subgenres. He learned how to scream, and every scream he did was louder and louder. One day, he went out into the wilderness to hunt for food, but he became lost and didn’t know where to go. As he became more and more stressed, he realized his gloves turned from white to blue. _That’s weird_ he thought. He started playing music, and the first scream he did knocked him back a few meters. The town would experience a sonic boom. Eventually, he made it back home and started trying to control his scream charge ups. After several months, he was able to control his screams. Likes: Heavy Metal Music, first person shooter games, fighting, working out, snowboarding, sports, and talking smack. Dislikes: Pop music, fourth wall breaks, LARP, cosplay, furries, Shadow, and stupidity. Powers: The ability to scream up to 400 decibels in volume. If you are within 10 meters of him screaming, you will go deaf for up to 48 hours. However, he is weak to speed and repeated homing attacks. He can’t move as fast as speed types, so if a speed type can just spam homing attacks, he’s done for. Please don’t steal my ideas. From what I know, this is original.
Sonic OCs are shit because people keep on making HEDGEHOGS, FOXES AND ECHIDNAS. No other creature, just the main trio, and if its a robot they are overpowered as shit.
Cinos the Dense potato One is a turtle, and one is a blue jay. While I did draw them both a while ago I started drawing them again to sort of give them a better look. I was lacking creativity back when I made the blue jay and just straight up gave him jet's boots. :/
Cinos the Dense potato all you need to do is look up "red data animals list" or rare animals and you'll get a list on Google. Also I have found looking into what a real animal strengths and weaknesses is and enhance them makes your character more interesting.
I don't know if this counts, but I'm working on a couple of D&D characters that I plan to adapt for a Sonic fanfic. The two of them are part of a conclave of rangers: One´s a wolf called Revenant. Once part of a tribe of wolves, an encounter with a Mind Flayer had him thrown into the outplanes where he was left to die or go insane until he was found by a race called the Gith who taught him how to channel the energies of the plane in order to escape. Since then, he hunts extraplanar threats, eventually forming his own conclave. The other is Goldberg, a Dwarf. Hailing from a clan of monster hunters, Goldberg's journey to track down a long lost treasure led him to discover an interest in artificing, which he uses to augment his wrapons and equipment. He has an especial distain for people who use technology for nefarious purposes.
I made my own sonic OC and it looked great the backstory was he was born from a planet of fire the power are he's s fire god and he can run faster than sonic if u were wondering about the name it was "emerald the fire hedgehog"
tell me what you think about my OC note it is based off multiple people in different universes so here we go I was the Pikachu ash has al was going well one day until a void appeared out of nowhere and ash was sucked in to the void and what was left was his hat and I wore it forever so then a mad scientist caught me out of nowhere and took me to his lab he encaged me but he fed me and gave me water and taught me how to speak English I was tested on a lot and I mean a LOT so one day a officer jenny with other cops came in and arrested the mad scientist and freed me and I was running when a vial of chemicals spilt all over me and I just kept running and I got out into the forest... so after that I took a nap and the next morning I decided to take a little walk and I just had the urge to go fast I didn't know why so I ran. the second I started to run it was like time stopped and I was running very fast and I stopped to think about what just happened and it turns out that the vial of chemicals made m speed stat go up high and I was the fastest thing life no joke I was probably faster than sonic shadow and flash combined. skip ahead a few months I was still thinking abut ash and how I missed him and how I helped dangerd pokemon with my speed. so I was relaxing and that void came up again and I was shocked at first but I soon jumped in to find ash as soon as I jumped in it was dark purple everywhere and I explored everywhere yelling ASH because I could speak and a while of searching I came across a skeleton wearing a blue coat and pink slippers I asked wo he was ad he came running at me saying have you seen my brother and I had to say no but than I asked have you seen a kid named ash and he said no and he said how about we work together to try and find them and I agreed and he had tears in his eyes so I figured he wasn't lying after a few hours we found another skeleton and I thought that was his brother so I said hello are you this skeleton brother. he stared the opposite way from me and sans said that it was not his brother and it was his dad and he was MAD. so I backed up and gaster said don't leave I'm lonely and encaged me with dark matter and it engulfed me and I blacked out and I woke up later and I was strapped to a hospital bed stabilized to the ground and he said. I'm going to make you powerful but focused on destroying everything and after that I backed out again and I was in my mind with another version of me but different he was a grey skeleton with ash's hat a yellow jacket just like sans and black shots with grey stripes and blue slippers and an angel wing and a demon wing and he said... I'm in control now... I woke up to normal but I was changing into that skeleton I saw in my mind and I was destroying everything and escaped with sans because I was turning back to normal and sans tought me about how to open voids to other universes/dimensions and I worked to save universes with KIT my friends OC and my brothers OC masterbuilder and I still go mad sometimes but I can now control my super form better but I need LOTS OF POWER!! so I often go to the sonic universe to get most of the power sources like chaos emeralds master emerald. and I do have weaknesses like water I cant swim and I struggle and that is why I work with people. THANK YOU so much for reading my story if you don't like it than to bad its your fault for reading it :D I hope you guys comment what your OC is if you want and have a nice day!!!
One tip I could provide with OC powers is to try to base it on the animals you try to base it on. For instance, if you make a cheetah for an OC, the way I'd put it is to make the cheetah faster than Sonic (since real-life cheetahs are about six times faster than real life hedgehogs when dashing), but only for, say, 10 seconds (because cheetahs can easily tire if they dash) in which the cheetah would be forced to move as fast as a normal human. If you were to go for a gorilla, give it super strength, but also make it slow as heck. If you were to go for an eagle or a hawk, give the eagle/hawk exceptional timing or accuracy, but also make the hawk lightweight and easily knocked back. At least that's my take.
I sonic ocs because I love to see how they think and act to other ocs and characters but there are Mary Sues who are shipped / related to sonic characters . ocs shouldn't get shipped and or related to sonic characters it's not right I have one that just works with her 2 year older sister at a veggie farm her only power is she can smell stuff from 3 Miles away .
And pro tip: If you want to create 5 OCs, but only focus on 2, then what's the point of the other 3? I have only 2 Fc's, a hedgehog named Alpha who has cosmic powers that should only used for 10 minutes at a time or else his body gets strained immensely, and his companion who is a 2 feet tall Kabuto beetle named Nano who can shrink to the size of an actual beetle
Here’s an oc I made a few years back for sonic Evo the Phoenix Abilities:Wisp Fusion,Pretty Strong,Not as fast as sonic but has a great amount of speed,Flight,Flame control and Is able to heal his wounds as well as the wounds of others. He was at first a explorer trying to follow in his father’s footsteps of being a known explorer and while flying finds the lost world. When he is exploring he ends up not being able to leave until he meets a crimson eagle wisp he named Wing and so Wing promised to help Evo escape as long as he takes Wing to see the outside world as he’s quite bored of his world. Once he agrees Wing then infuses with Evo and takes control of him to lead him out of the world to see earth. Evo’s main weapons are a greatsword which he’s surprisingly fast with,Wing because Wing can morph into weapons but his main choice is a gun that can fire wisp or the fire that Evo can create. The one time he had fought with the freedom fighters is when Wing was taken from Evo and he was forced to join them to get his Wingman back (See what I did there) and uses the other wisps whomst he barely used or talked to. That is when he learns to treat his wisps equally instead of only using Wing. As he finally frees an energy drained Wing,Eggman infuses the energy of wing into the egg dragoon and wreaks havoc with terrifying speed as he and Sonics friends have to work together to stop Eggman and get Wings energy back. If I should work anything out lmk cause I’m thinking of continuing the story
my oc is called fierin the hedgehog he is an orange hedgehog with spine formation like seelkadoom(sonic oc) and he basically has fire powers like blaze with some original attacks. he comes from the king emerald(master emerald but fiery) just like chaos and looked like chaos until eggman nega captured him and tried to give it sonic and blaze's dna so he could use sol(former name) to defeat blaze and sonic but he broke free during the mind control process, he now lives with knuckles helping with the master emerald, he is friends with sonic and friends and also joined the resistance and he helped knuckles build a house around the master emerald, he doesnt have the ability to talk
a backstory is already good as long as it won't affect the main story with the canon characters..you gotta see your character's story as one that did not happen around the canon characters.for fanfictions/rps the best way to start off is when your chaeracter still have to meet the canon characters..well that's what i learned from a friend of mine when i still made cringy backstories >.
My sonic oc is the lost twin sister of Sonic.😂 When they were kids and their special powers (the power of my oc is pressing pure energy together and creating things like weapons with it. This things disappear when she want ) showed up, people were after them. Sonic was saved by Longclaw (this owl from the sonic movie) and my charakter was stolen by a forest clan or something. Years later she was found by sonic there and she came with him. ... or something...😅🦔 Later she became the guardian of the 7 chaos emeralds.
Here is my OC ability: [THE TROOPER] The user can absorb the abilities of machines. After the user absorbs the ability of a machine, it cannot be used again (Also, it can't be absorbed again). Ever. After the user absorbs a machine's power, the user can turn into that machine (though the user can use it with arms, legs etc. For example, the user can turn his/her legs into wheels and such). The user can also combine machine's abilities. For example, the user can turn into a tank with a car's speed and weight, while still retaining the tank's durability and cannon. The user can only use 3 different types of machines, If the user wants to use another type then he/she'll have to dispose one of her 3 types of machine which erases the abilities the user absorbed for that type. If the user wants to get his/her powers back, then they'll have to absorb the abilities all over again. When the user absorbs a machine that he/she already haves (of the same type ((tanks,planes,cars etc)) ) , the abilities of the machine are added, not multiplied. The appearance of the machine the user transforms to depends on the best one absorbed by the user (the best plane, the best tank, the best car, yatta yatta yatta whatever).
the "bad oc" topic is part of every fandom really. over the top colorful fursonas, bad sonic ocs and every mlp oc sporting some sort of dark color. while some of it is true, its subjective to every single character themselves really and nothing should be judged by the design, as long as it looks well drawn at least and is definitely meant to be serious. to powers and backstories... yea, you basically can instantly tell if its a person with inferiority complex or a kid who made the character just by looking at that. also goes for all fandoms obviously. matching abilities with the universe they live in isn't always easy since creativity kinda is limited because of that, but the result feels better. Backstory is difficult as it needs the most effort and such. as a character designer and writer myself i have had enough time doing that and just creating a lot of different characters for all sorts of fandoms is fun if you really get the hang of it. i would recommend not only trying yourself on ocs, but just characters in general. it helps improving and maybe a oc will end up much more accurate to what it should be when doing so. ... or throw all of that out of the window and get yourself the first pic you see, recolor it in a unfitting color and give it a stupid name with a constant kamehameha shooting from there eyes 24/7
I'm nearly a decade late commenting on this video, but the screenshot of that character from that spanish sonic series @ 5:19 just made me remember how insane that series was XDDDD. Basically every episode was split into two halfs. 50% of it was OP versions of Sonic characters having huge battles and the other 50% was the characters doing the do.
I made my character a green sonic once with a red shirt, yellow scarf, and blue shorts with a bit of hair covering one of his eyes and a few bangs on the front. He had an 8th Chaos Emerald around his neck. Oh, and he was the son of a goddess at one point. (now I just make his mother a former mage), and I THINK I gave him all of Sonic's abilities, except he was still trying to learn the boost because every time he boosted, he would end up tripping, and I also made him not AS fast as Sonic, but at least fast enough to kinda catch up with him. God, why did I think this was ok?
so, my main OC [basically starting to get back into it slowly]'s base is nick the weasel, although I have changed colors and added a bit, I mean, i'm no sprite genius so I won't say he's...amazing. I may go back and try to edit in extra but it's a WIP Backstory: At the age of 18, after finishing school he left his home to explore the world and got a job as a bounty hunter. As a bounty hunter his skills were...lackluster. He worked everyday to get better and better, eventually rising through the ranks and gaining the master sniper nickname. Eventually, he leaves a bounty hunter group after a mission has him run into a situation. From there he meets many other characters and eventually a sealed evil arises and he finds himself against the evil with the help of others...Or something to that effect, story ain't complete yet and I really need to think of how I want to write this character. He's got no special powers and is just really good with a gun. He does wear a scouter in order to aim more precisely and find an enemy's weak point or open area.
how to make a sonek oc: 1: draw elmo first 2: erase the face of elmo (including the eyes) 3: add lenny face 4:add some sketchers to make it look cool (I guess) 5:add the sanek speid 6: horrible backstory 7: FUCK OFF NOW U GOT YOURSELF A AMAZING SONEK OC WHY ARE YOU READING THIS
I have an OC that is a blue fox named Max Prower. He is Tails' older brother, but got taken to war when tails was just a baby. He lost his right eye and arm, and had them replaced with G.U.N. technology. His arm is basically like inspector gadget or Captain hook's hook (From "Jake and the neverland pirates") because he can transform it into various different tools and weapons to suit his need. For example, say he needs to help his brother with a machine, he could turn his arm into a drill. Or say he needed to get up to a high place, he could make his hand into a propeller. Before reuniting, Tails only remembered that his brother was blue, hence him being so close to sonic. Unlike Tails, Max has just one tail. Max's eye has heat seeking abilities, can shoot a laser, and detect life. He became a mercenary, but always brings his targets in alive. Letting someone else take the blame.
For most Sonic OCs, it's usually a question of how and when the OC will immediately become overpowered. Not by some kind of development, just an immediate coincidence of power! Others are well thought and given good character as for personality and backstory. I can't say I nitpick so much over design since we've already seen alot of already put clichés into most Sonic OCs nowadays. But, the Sonic Fandom with it's OCs are alright at best. Some are great while others...I don't even know where they'll go next. Hope to see something better soon, but thanks for the video. Gives many points on the usual guidelines people use for these characters.
1. *draws an OC that's supposed to be a wolf* 2. *thinks to self why it looks like tails shadow and sonic got mixed up together* 3. *gives him a story of being in a nation that is short on man power and started recruiting child soldiers.* 4. *gets him making some mistakes(deaths of friends cuz wars). that he quickly learns and adapt to.* 5. *Thinks it seems a bit edgy because the character now seem a bit stonic.* 6. *tries to brunt the edgyness attitude of the character* 7. **gives up and doesn't bother making a story anymore**
And here I am on Tumblr publishing my 5 year old sonic OC who changed species and names to appeal to people, but hey at least she's ,in my opinion, more fleshed out than before.
I always alot of oc concepts a day. I scrap a lot but the ones that are good i try to develop them. As powers go it mainly depends on animal or what they are based on them. For backstorys go i write a lot of backstory drafts and pick which one are good.
This video is so good, sometimes I don't watch anything else on TH-cam except for this. I might have even watched this all day at one point! Great video, Knight Of The Wind!
I do like RPing some times when i have some free time and I have about 4 characters that I might use... but rarely do they even get used. Mostly because with the people I know they just don't fit in anywhere XD. 2 of them are rival photographers working for magazines and newpapers, They are the ones who would go into the danger zones where the real heroes are and take pictures of the action. Just one of them tries to record the true things while the other one doctors up the photos using optical magic for illusions. No photoshop needed :P. I draw all my characters |D.
I remeber my first fan-character... He's history was basically a copy of Shadow history. He was able to manipulate Chaos energy,and he kind look like a serious rock n'roll fan. And...he was a hedgehog. He name was.... Dark Green. Yeah,awesome name.
Can't say I hate them, on the contrary I love them. Even the badly made ones, I just don't like it when they get uppity about when I suggest they don't use bases so often, or when I suggest not to use too many bright colors. Because neon can hurt the eyes if all over the screen, also it is recommended by many pros to use a limited amount of colors. In the end I was the rude one, I did kinda appear out of nowhere and suggest ways to improve without constant. The whole "unwanted criticism." I thought I was in the right but IDK, which do you think is worst: Suggesting things that you think could help them, even though they didn't ask for it. Or just not bothering giving tips, when you're sure that it really could help them. Either way, I'm not going to be giving tips unless someone asks from now on.
My Sonic OC was created as the figure head of my art page (not active as much anymore but I’m trying to start up again). They’re name is Amazonite The Fox (Mazzy) A fox with a racing mind of creativity. Pretty good at befriending others, but enjoys their independence. They have white fur with purple and green hair, and dons some minor piercings.
Usually, Sonic OCs are born/created/live on Mobius. Strangely, not mine. My OC, Orion, was created on Earth, genetically enhanced to become a powerful foe for a massive tech company, CoreTech. once, he was an average hedgehog on Earth. In the matter of days, his body changed. He became able to run on two legs. He looked more like a character that would fit in the Sonic multiverse. He actually did become a powerful foe for CoreTech, and actually won against them, sending them away from his home, West island. Now, the remnants of a city lie in the middle of the island, with flora slowly bringing it down. Anyways, I spent a sloid... 15 minutes on this. i'm gonna go sleep-
One thing I find important if making a Sonic OC, or just a character in general, the backstory and personality are most important. I know some may not completely agree with me on this, but as .a writer, I make sure to stay true to this statement. In order for a Sonic OC (or any other kind of OC, or an actual original character, as in not bonded to any series), the character must be able to stand alone without any sort of physical design, or powers. Yes, you can construct their appearance as well as their powers while still working on their personality and backstory, and their story can always change, but in order for it to be good. You must be able to describe your character without even mentioning appearance or powers. If you are able to do this, and the story you come up with is balanced (and doesn't relate too much to another character's backstory if it is an OC from a series), then you have a good character right there.
My old OC was a shape-shifter from a submerged Atlantis-like kingdom who seeks the help of Sonic & friends before Eggman takes over the kingdom. Got rid of her because she was a Mary-Sue, took too much screen time, and was badly written & drawn. Her name was Sony-Mae (after my old DeviantArt username), and I deeply regret making her.😔 But if I was to revive the OC (which I won't for the sack of everyone who hated/will hate her); I'd change her into a siren (the fish kind)-like creature named Lei Lei, who still has a shape-shifting ability but is curious thing (like Madison from "Splash" or Ariel from "The Little Mermaid" ). She's not in love with anyone (which would be a huge relief), but she does find Sonic & his land friends cute, and can't help but wanting to hug & nuzzle them all...even if she gets them all soaked with water.😅
I made an oc named Subzero and I finally made a backstory, so I'll summarize it: Subzero lives on a place called Icebound Mountain after being taken hostage from her hometown. She was an important citizen there, but all she has left now are her combat talents and ice skates that she uses to fight. After being shoved onto the frozen ground, she fought the bandits that captured her in the beginning, and emerged (barely) victorious. Everything she does in battle and survival is purely from memories and instinct. I know it's not great but I wanna know what you think!
My OC hasn't been fully designed yet but I have some story His name is Remi The possible bird or black Fox. He is a cousin of an other oc I made.Remi was the first to start the future that silver comes from he has telekinesis powers like silver's. Silver came to his present before he was born Remi met Silver and silver found out about Remis powers much like his own. He began training with silver seeing silver like a big brother to him. But then silver had to go back to his present saying that Remi is the beginning of the future. And then that's where Remi started his mission setting out for the future. I'm cringe and I'm too into story..;-;
What people regard as traits of a bad OC character are also stuff generally regarded as bad writing on an original work : - A badly made and uninteresting overpowered character?. - A filler unengaging backstory?. - A melting pot of incongruent elements interacting each other in the most banal way possible?(E. g. just check any sonic adventures, Sonic 06 or Sonic X ) - Icky romantic relationships? - Characters as plain and dull as a wooden plank? (blaze,tikal, gerald robotnik,Maria,Eggman Nega,etc.) - Dialogues that doesn't contribute anything to convey character or relevant info?..... Most of this can be found plentifully on almost any post adventure Sonic game. IMO crappy fanfiction derived from canon's bad writing and also started obnoxious trends such as the character bio profile. Except when it comes to following some integral design patterns, I think you can take as much as creative freedom you want when writing or designing an OC, and end up with something good. General writing guidelines also apply here. Therefore, my suggestions to make an OC more engaging to others, are: - It doesn't matter whether you're modifying an existent story arc or creating something new, really. What It matters is the consistency with the place and your OC characteristics, also try to keep the cartoonish tone of the franchise. This is far more important than the design of your OC. - Quality sources from mythology, ancient literature, sci fi, movies,rpgs etc are the finest places to take inspiration from. Reduce the sonic plot from its lowest denominator and start adding your own stuff from there. For example, you wanna write something related to tikal and her tribe? Research mesoamerican civilizations(specially mayan), read popol vuh, etc.... - This applies to your OC's backstory aswell. The fewer starting lines you use the better, Is far more engaging to tell the story instead of just dump a wall of text explaining your OC's backstory. Imagine you're reading a book or comic, how many times you've found the author telling you everything about a character starting from the first page? Zero, right?. You're writing a story, not a wikipedia summary. - Sonic canon is basically a cartoonish action franchise. The key of an engaging sonic story is keepin' it somewhat simple and not get too serious. Avoid the mistake Sonic Team made with SA 2 backstory and Sonic 2006. - Respect canon characters personalities if used. Unless you state that you're making an alternate universe or any other valid excuse that fiction writers do. - Use multimedia/graphic resources(comics,animation, flash, pixel art etc.) to tell ur story instead of just plain text. Sonic is predominantly aesthetics over substance (It relies on tropes and pop culture elements as identity traits), this is not A song of ice and fire, Dune, 2001 space oddisey or Hamlet.
My OC is a wolf named Kyo. A failed attempt at a robot. After escaping and being destroyed - Tails fixes him and reprogrammed Kyo to work with Sonic and his friends. Eggman gave Kyo teleportation and (this character was made around Sonic Forces) tried fusing the phantom ruby with his energy core. This is another reason why he was destroyed. This gives him the power to glitch through dimensions. I know it’s edgy and stuff but I love him ;/;
My OC is a Sonic Forces OC called Enigma. She is a gray cat with a blue-ish green stripes. She wears a t-shirt and a striped tie, with some long sort of Converse similar shoes. She isnt only from SF because i didnt play it yet. She likes and has been friendzoned by Blaze repeatedly. Her backstory is of a normal kid who wasnt really acepted in school for liking male clothings. But today she is a carefree and pretty sassy OC. Her only power is an blue aura that can make an explotion from maximum a normal sized house, but nothing more than that. She had a crush on Sonic, but when she realized he was a bit stupid she abandoned the idea of trying a relationship .-. my oc is trash
I’m known as the “Artist” in my class...but as SOON as I draw Sonic and my OCs everyone hates my drawings. This has built up my confidence and also pulled it back down. Now I think ima terrible artist
my specialty is making backstory´s for my oc´s because i make them like a normal person with something different to make them stand out from the rest of the characters in the world they live in but nothing too different.
I remember making am oc a while back. She was an op 3 tailed fox. I decided to remake her. She's still a 3 tailed fox (Kitsune) with the ability to shapeshift into a human woman ,like in the original folklore of Kitsunes . She's still a wip though.
I like Sonic OCs because they are used by people's imagination, and Art to make them the best they can if they are good. That's my reasoning for liking Sonic OCs.
I just want some feedback here but im making a pink fox OC called Sakura: (General, just read this if your in a hurry): she can only use the Normal emeralds and Super emeralds but can only use them for a really short time due to inexperience, she can be kind but can get killed or knocked out VERY easily, she got a strong power from her mother who is a goddess of negativity even though both of them don't have immortality she only uses the fling ability since thats the only one she has discovered and without those powers (the weaker she gets the weaker the power gets) she cant defend herself, well at least, and normally leads to her mother protecting her. (Backstory): She was tortured by her mother and any other evil beings and even her sister Sarith tried helping her out but had her own problems at the times, she eventually escaped and rarely got possessed by her mother and forced to attack her freinds, she somehow made her mother change her heart and ever since then her mother protected her.
My oc is named Trigger. He was 8 years old and lived on North Island all his life. When his 14 year old brother Tucker collected all 7 chaos emeralds, he tried to escape Mobius, as Robotnik had taken over. Trigger trips over the edge of North Island and is caught by Tucker. But two humans, Luke and Jack, using the portal Tucker created with the emeralds, save them, and discover Tails, and Knuckles (wearing a Stetson... And no Sonic) and try to fight Robotnik and his head pawn, Zotron. Do not steal.
There are SO many problems that I have with sonic oc's. Most are unoriginal and they just recolor sonic characters into a purple version of it. And they make their OC fall in love with sonic. If I made a sonic oc? I would make a good story about my OC.
Honestly, I've been a bit absent on media's, only because I'm trying to get better. As soon as I'm good enough, I'm making videos and art of my OCs. I honestly believe that Sonic OCs can be good. People just gotta try harder!
This is my Sonic Oc's power: He can turn himself into a light ball and particles that are his body, he can make anything on him into that to, but he can only hold that form for 1 hour, and can go through walls and attack, but he was a pretty normal wolf when he was a pup, and his family has the running genetics of that power
Here's my oc I created when I was 8, I hate it so much but here's her original backstory before I improved it Crystal the cat, who is a princess of a far away land from the north who can control the element of ice (oh god it's already bad-) one day she got kidnapped by Eggman until Sonic, tails & Knuckles saved her. Ever since then she tries to get Sonic's attention for him to love her ((I seriously wrote a story about this in one of my old journals)) Improved version of her backstory Crystal is just a normal cat who has heard about Sonic and friends but she never met them. She still has the ability of ice but it's quite weak unless she has a energy source (like a chaos emerald). She usually just spends her time tinkering with machinery or reading I would like any criticism to improve her, I just want to try to make a difference when it comes to "cringy sonic characters"
I have an OCs too. But one of My fav OC is Lady the Hadgehog :D I think her story is very deep and I freaking intl that character desing and personality :D
My OC-Kara the WolfHog (Idk) Backstory- Kara was created by Nazo in the war of the creations, and hedgehogs (Not real event) She had a little bro named Nitro. He was two years younger than Kara. Kara had shapeshifting powers and loved to trick the other children in the lab, mostly her father, Nazo. One day, the old lab blew up and everyone evacuated to the forest. They followed Nazo and he got stabbed in the heart by another hedgehog. He became a little gem and Kara kept it until they found somewhere else to stay. They stayed at a wooden cabin for a few weeks, then hedgehog warriors bursted into their cabin. The warriors names were Zark, Chills, Void, and Leafy. Zark tried to destroy them but Void said they should take them with them to a nursery they opened. Other creation children were there. Kara and Nitro were exited and happy to see others like them. She went to school with the whole group and met Faston, Sonic's big brother. Nitro met Sonic that day and didn't stop talking about him, how fast he ran, His dad, Mr. Speedswarp was a racer! She met their father and he greeted them, he wore glasses. Kara was happy. When they left, they stayed at the nursery, because it was Sunday! Zark got killed a month later...The over 23 kids attacked the killer and eventually told Void and Chills and Leafy. Zark's funeral was next Monday. After that they grew all together until they could survive on their own. Nitro went to live alone, so did Kara. She misses her little bro. The siblings still talk by messaging eachother on a phone. Now she lives in the small town of Warensville. And lives in a lab and hid her father's decaying gem there.
My OC Ray Ray the wolf I think has a good back story, I started making an origin story for him on Wattpad. Basically he was born in a temple with a wolf tribe and was meant to grow to be the balance between good and evil, however this all changed as another tribe came to attack, the parents of Ray Ray ran off with him as fast as they could before dying themselves, this left the young wolf alone and scared. He was saved after being attacked by a bear from a wolf named Emily, who unlike Ray Ray was not a mobian wolf but a normal wolf and lived in a pack of normal wolves who saw Ray Ray as different and not one of them, he was made fun of for this, bullied, some of the wolves even beat him so much he'd be passed out in a pool of his own blood, Emily tried to protect Ray Ray as much as she could. Things turned really bad as all of Ray Ray's dark emotions of rage, fear and hatred turned into another entity known as dark Ray Ray, he isn't a physical being, more like a spirit, he'd make Ray Ray suffer and wanted to put Ray Ray under so much suffering he'd agree to give up his very being, allowing his dark counter part to gain the body he needed to rule over everything. After years of the bad treatment Ray Ray had enough, he pretty much snapped, taking the dark thoughts and feelings he had and using them as power known as dark energy, this was all under the influence of dark Ray Ray of course. Ray Ray began killing all the wolves with these new powers of his, but he then accidentally killed Emily in his rage, he was all alone, and scared, and lost. Anyway that's the main point of his back story. He later forms a team of other OCS called the Mega OCS however that's not the main part of his origin as that was just something I did with some of my friends on sonic amino who have OCS. Hope you enjoyed, if you didn't oh well 😂
my oc has a fedora
Mine drinks vodka until the voices in his head stop
Andrew Valdes you sir are awesome
idk why but i gave my oc which is kind of a tails + scrooge a BOWLER HAT RIPPED FROM ROBLOX.
My oc is green
Andrew Valdes LMAO
People don't hate sonic ocs, they hate unoriginal, stollen, cliche, overpowered sonic ocs.
Silver Puppeteer exactly
+Silver Puppeteer Unfortunately, most people are ignorant and can't tell the difference between good OC's and bad ones!
Bing Bang 2 ture
True.
sadly, most people are instantly turned off by my characters because I mention they're sonic OCs no matter how hard I actually work on them... Sooo. Yeahh.... Hehe- ;w;
I THOUGHT OF AN ORIGINAL POWER FOR AN OC

Torres Boys n Mom Nice.
Torres Boys n Mom BRILLIANT XD

Hi!
I'm happy you like Laura's design. (the brown colored echidna character).
It kinda suprises me to see this older design again as i am still redesigning and developing her haha.
Oh awesome! Cool that you actually saw this video. :)
Yeah Laura was actually one of the fan characters that I liked the most out of all the OC's I saw,
so I thought she would be a good example to set for others in this video.
I really liked the style you chose for her for this piece, it was really neat.
And it's pretty cool that you're still developing her, will be checking out your future work! :)
Thank you very much for the compliments!
This specific image is actually a collab with someone. I commissioned them for a Sonic X-styled lineart and colored it myself. The one who made the lineart is Noble-Maiden, she is really talented! I really recommend that you check out her gallery :)

Oh No...

How to make an absolutely hilarious Sonic OC
1: Create character as usual
2: Make it go super with just 1 emerald
3: Make the character allergic to emeralds
4: Make the character friends with NiGHTS
This is how I made my third OC.
(1 and 2 were also like this but allergic to pollen instead)
Hahah sounds good!
Knight of the Wind Also, it must be VERY allergic. Not like **single sneeze** allergic, but red spots, itches, sneezing, coughing, and hurting eyes allergic.
Im working on an OC ill show you when im done
+1r5Drooodle Sooooo it's like "He dies if he tries to go super"?
1r5Drooodle OKAY THAT WAS ACTUALLY PRETTY FUNNY!!! LAUGHS UNCONTROLLABLY
Surprised you didnt talk about the all mighty death known as RECOLORS
My OC used to look like a green Sonic but because I had finally stuck with the design I had I refused to believe it was a recolor. Really it was just a green Sonic with a T-shirt and shorts, a slightly smaller tail and no back-spines
My (OLD) Sonic oc was a mint coloured Sonic with purple shoes. He's changed a lot though
Luckily with Sonic Forces coming out people can make a grand reality
Doubt they'd put 100000000+ in the cutscenes, though...
MODS
DopeLeafeon // DLGaming they might
if there would be yellow and white shoes i would make my oc in the game
No matter what i am making Shrek.
Step how to make a real sonic oc
1.think what is your favroit animal and if you want to use it as an oc.
2.get a simple formate to use to start your drawing or use pics of characters body shape just DONT draw any hair or cloths with detail yet.
3.start drawing some simple ears and tails then slowly give texture and make it nicer if you have trouble just use pics of ears or tails for help or go free style i dont care.
4.start drawing the eyes,mouth,and nose dont worry about colour yet.
5.draw simple cloth outlines and then when its simple slowly add texture and feutures to it by know the character will look more normale.
6.know this is when you can start drawing hair (Hint:use shapes first then start to turn it into hair conecting and erasing any unwanted lines).
7.yay your finnish all you nead to do is colour yay fun fun but before you colour it in you may want some coppies just in case of axidents like dark lines you cant eraze or smoges trust me if you make mistacts easly this will save your drawing yay just dont forget the name,backstory,and powers.
p.s thanx for readding my comment i've drawn lots of oc's and stuff i just never put them on internet.
I guess I followed the rules... sorta?
thank the lord!! I followed every step to this before i even read this comment! This is great for when people need some help with their OC's. We need more people like you, who actually know how to make an OC.
Great advice, but try to fix the spelling mistakes.
Addition to Step 1: Try to think of species that you haven't seen yet in the Sonic Canon like say for example: Tarantula, Anaconda, or a Griffin just to name a few
Repeating animals isn't bad if you manage to make them fell differeent and be unqiue from the others.
An example is Irish the hedgehog
Even Coldsteel became an acceptable oc after the shit i saw.
oof...
How to create a Sonic fan character:
Don't you draw a GOD DAMN THING! At least not yet.
Waddle Dee sonic shorts reference? XD
Love it!!!
Thx!😁
No.
NO.
NOOOOOOOOOOO.
I hate it when people say "the fandom ruined the game for me". No it didn't. They're 2 different things. The product and the people are different.
The people influence the product, and vice versa.
+That Guy I can understand where you're coming from, but unfortunately it seems like the Sonic Franchise is the one exception where the fandom CAN ruin the games for people.
Take for example this whole original character thing. People get really annoyed with fans making all of these poorly designed and unoriginal fan characters, and they've got every right to their opinion. But the problem is when people look at official Sonic characters like Shadow and Silver and start saying things like "Oh, look at them, they're just as bad as Sonic fan characters" or "Shadow and Silver are just fan characters that got a budget and were made official!" Now because of this, everyone starts hating on practically every character since Tails came along, and Sega have to appease these fans by making Sonic the only playable character. Heck, even Sonic himself doesn't get off scott free with people whining about his design and personality because it doesn't live up to these "fan's" insanely high standards. Even the new customisable character in Sonic Forces is getting hated on and made fun of for no legit reason other than it reminds people of this weird stigma that only seems to exist in the Sonic Fandom.
This kind of negative thinking is not the way forward and it really can hurt the franchise.
Bowmaj 86 well said. But forces is one of the only cases where the fandom affects the game.
My oc is from a parallel dimension, and parallel Eggman edited her so that she had super high IQ. (I'm not saying it's good, my friend came up with it. It's still a work in progress)
I don't hate Sonic OCs, not even the bad ones. Because I think that every OC needs a chance to become good when their creator becomes more mature. Look at Courtney, the creator of SNT ! SNT is that kind of OC that everybody loves "because she's special", as Courtney says. And now, she managed to make a whole and a good reason for that without changing anything from the lore of her original comics. And that's great ^^ These OCs are the ones who start the love of creation of these people, and they need recognition for that.
I made an OC because of Forces.
It's a raccoon(because I love making characters with markings, and she is not related to Marine), she wears a short singlet paired with bright blue denim shorts. She wraps a scarf on her neck and covers herself with a cardigan, she wore knitted cuffs and a pair of fingerless gloves. She wears high tops shoes. She has markings on her face that makes her look like she have eyelashes(she doesn't have eyelashes, I find it as a neat design). She had fur sticking out from each side of her head with 2 tufts(the amount of tufts are optional, depending on drawing styles, picture it like the hair on the side of the red wolf/custom hero from Sonic Forces).
I made a boom design for her as well and matches it with Boom's method of redesigning characters, however she unintendedly has similar looks to Sticks the Badger, she doesn't look completely alike but some ideas were similar.
I tweaked Sonic Boom's idea of sportstape and my OC wears an unfully wrapped sportstape, so the sportstape on her elbows area were hanging out, her hoodie(which replaced the cardigan) is wrapped on her waist and her scarf was replaced with an acorn necklace(because I had the elbow sportstape things already). The cuffs on her hands were replaced with the enerbeam watch(that's... what it's called?) on her right hand and a high tech ring bracelet on her left(I just noticed that Sticks had a ring on her left arm, and again I do not intend my OC to look like her) one. The markings on her face split into 2, which makes her look like she have 2 eyelashes on her eyes. She still had the short singlet but her denim shorts were changed into black shorts which was partially covered by the hoodie wrapped on her waist, her legs are longer(typical Sonic Boom) and was wrapped with sportstape(not her entire legs), she wore sports shoes this time which still looks quite similar to her high tops. The only thing she kept from her Modern counterpart was her fingerless gloves. Her side fur has plenty of tufts this time, imagine it like the hair on a lion's tail.
She doesn't really have any powers(because, trying not to make it cringy and learning from my past OCs, to be more specific, fan characters that aren't Sonic related.), so I had a few ideas of gadgets for her, some plans was giving her a satchel full of gadgets, it would also improve her design, or either hide the gadgets inside her outfit. Her Boom counterpart has a high tech ring that allows her to project an interactive hologram weapon, which currently the only weapon she could only project was a bow, even if it was her left hand wearing it, the ring could project the arrows on her left hand to fire, making easy combos on enemies(basically an excuse because the Sonic Boom characters wore their enerbeam watches on their right wrist, and my OC is right handed), charging the bow for a moment by pulling back the elastic beam will cause the beam to glow brighter meaning it's charging energy, that allows my OC to fire much powerful arrows towards enemies.
I also made a classic version of her, but to get the classic vibe, I had to use Classic Tails' eyes and centered tiny triangle mouth, then gave my OC a zipped up jacket and a skirt, also giving her simple shoes tied up with long socks that goes up to covering her knees(she had to curl it a little because it was quite long). She had gloves covering her hands and wrists entirely, exactly like Sonic's. But she doesn't have her scarf. It makes her look like a kindergarten/first-grade. Also, she only have one tuft on her side fur. Also, she's too young to have a gadget.
I had a Dreamcast version of her too, she wore a t-shirt with a short cardigan but long sleeves. She had similar gloves to her classic counterpart but this time some part went under her sleeves(which was too long and she had to curl up onto her wrists), she had her scarf too. She wore skirts and her socks this time goes as long as under her knees(she did curl it up too). She had sport shoes but not the same as her Boom Counterpart. The tufts on her side fur goes up to 2(depends on drawing style like I said). There were no gadgets planned for this version(yet.. maybe?).
With Sonic forces I can make Coldsteel
Dillon P NOOOO NOT COLDSTEEEEEL
Sonicchu
Backstory: Once there was a Hedgehog named Coldsteel, he was so edgy that everyone died The End.
omegadrive9999 bruh
I like the redesign of coldsteel that Courtney Project SNT made
I tend to ignore the bad ones overall but the ones that capture my attention really fascinate me! Personally, making a ton of Sonic FCs actually sharpens and hones your skills as a creator. Just to see where my creative juices would flow, I actually created tons of FCs based on animals I liked (a few of them hybrids). At first, I was satisfied with my result but as I became more involved with a similar creative community, my creative process started to change and after some time looking back on the FCs I had created, I either scrapped some or turned them into background anthro non-Sonic characters but kept several vital ones. Now while I know it's frowned upon, I did create 2/3 of the characters to be shipped with canon characters but I didn't want to just slap them with said characters so naturally, as any good writer should, I gave it my best to balance out everything per character in addition. I love working on backstories for characters so I chose the species thought long and hard about what kind of stories these characters would tell; even if they dated a known character. I also attempted to make it work within the universe, too. Whether it be powers, personality, shipping, lore, etc. I have a best friend who hates FCs so very much. She thinks they *all* suck (hence why she hates the comics, stating they are all Mary Sue FCs). I disagree with her standpoint but I must have done something right if she doesn't complain about my current FC. Heck, I even got her to make her own simple FC for RP purposes only. In retrospect, hers is quite simple, as she prefers so it works out pretty well.
My very first Sonic character was a blue-furred and teal-spotted leopard named Kat the Huntress (even though the name sucks, I think it still has a nice ring to it). She had wings, talons, a scorpion stinger, and eyes that changed colors based on mood (I gave this trait to my Chameleon Sonic FC because it fit better along with her backstory). Kat was really just a RP character I used when on long phone calls with an old friend. It was therapeutic because even though she was part of a universe I loved, I used her in a RP setting that allowed other universes I liked; such as Halo and Naruto (yeah, she was pretty much a gun-wielding Sonic-character Ninja). I've since scrapped her and recreated her from the ground up. Originally, she was just a Snow Leopard with no real background story in mind. But she started off as being simply a venue to explore my love for the franchise and fascination with Sonic, the character, as a whole. Shortly after I completed her story and settled on a real name (like, the third or fourth time), I realized I had changed as I wrote the story (not to mention I rushed the ending because I just wanted to finish it so badly), not only did my interests in characters change, but I also gained a yearning for self-expression and true creative freedom. So I decided I would write a new story with the same character but give her life. Funnily enough, it all started when I was looking Inuit words just for fun. This one restless night of soul-searching led me to create the most elaborate backstory I've ever written for a character ever. She was more than a character to ship with a canon character, she actually had life and depth. I've had a handful of people praise me for her realism. And It's all thanks to nights working tirelessly to make her nearly perfect (by that I mean balanced!).
Anyway, I didn't want to spoil anything in case anyone was actually interested in seeing her design and backstory.

Wow, it looks amazing!
@potato5891 Oh thanks! This is so old though 😅
People: "Sonic OCs are very overpowered"
Solaris, Dark Gaia, Infinite, and other powerful Sonic villains: *Are we a joke to you?*
but even they have limits, for sonic OCs its all left to the Imagination
For infinite, yes.
There's a reason why the majority of them are one time villains
7:12 Now, that Badger character looks pretty good! He looks unique, but still looks like he comes from the world of Sonic the Hedgehog, and I would like to see more characters like that in the games! I prefer stuff like that over characters like Shara, Chip, The Deadly Six and most of the background characters in Sonic Boom, that's for sure!
MY SONIC OC IS ORAILS HE IS TAILS BUT SLIGHTY MORE COOLER AND ORANGE.
Arrzee Productions reference right there.
Douglas The Thingy he's a recolor isn't he?
I have a good backstory for my Sonic OC.
LOGAN: Hello. my name is Logan the hedgehog. One year ago, I was exploring the whole Green Hill zone, until I came across some weird look water. It's kinda orangish red. When I came to get a better look at it, I feel in drowning. Luckily I managed to reach to the surface in time. An hour later, I was catching my breath and look at my fur. My fur was completely red and my body feels like it was on fire. Then a second later, flames came out of my hands. I was a little shocked about this.... could this be a gift from the heavens?
To be continued...
That's pretty gud.
NerdyDude0411 Scott thx bro
Logan Anderson You need help kid
Hmmm
@I stepped on a lego and now im severly injured Nope...it's pretty bad.
I think Sash Lilac from Freedom Planet used to be a Hedgehog instead of a Dragon before, and where the inspiration comes, Freedom Planet it's a good Sonic clone I ever seen so far :)
You’re right.
You’re so darn right.
*You know Freedom Planet too?*
I remember my first Sonic oc, She was a fennec fox named Demeter and she was essentially just a nice lady I guess??? She didn't have any powers, nor did she go on adventures, She simply lived a quiet life and worked at a bakery she ran. it wasn't bad for my 12 year old self.
An oc I created is basically a what if scenario, but into an actual being. That being, what if Eggman wasn’t evil.
His name is Dr. Henry Pecko, he’s a gray Eagle, and unlike Eggman, who desires to use the Chaos Emeralds for evil, Pecko does not desire to use them, rather to study them. In his youth he was an archeologist, and first stumbled on the tales of the emerald when excavating an ancient Echidna tomb, it is there he also found a staff which he would use for combat. Like Eggman, he would create mechs, but once more unlike Eggman’s, Henry’s mechs are more in line with helping others, rather than world domination. One thing about the doctor, is that he is not a huge fan of Sonic and company as he feels that Sonic does more harm than good. This would change gradually over time, as one day, Dr. Pecko would find a Chaos Emerald on his way to an excavation site of an Owl’s settlement, and would be captured by Eggman, who would discover the Emerald’s location. Eggman would be foiled by Sonic and friends, and would rescue the doctor, who is of course not too thrilled of being rescued by the team. As time passes, Henry would grow fond of the team. Tails he would get along with the quickest due to the Fox’s vast intelligence. For Amy, her spirit would remind Henry of his daughters, Emma, and Tanya. Though he is fond of Knuckles, for Knuckles is in the doctor’s point of view, the last gateway to a field he spend his entire life studying, Henry feels though he has the weakest connection with. As for Sonic, Henry would learn that even though there have been massive consequences to the Hedgehog’s crusades, he admitted that a world without Sonic would have been worse, and that the boy has a great heart. Especially when it came to his friends; which now included Henry, whether the old Eagle liked it or not. After helping the team defeat Eggman, Henry would become a contact for the team whenever they needed a helping hand, whether it be through contact through Tails machines, or even in person; as in Henry’s words, it would give him an excuse to get out of the house.
I remember having an oc when i was little, god that was stupid
Illogical you think you were stupid enough look at me I had several and flat out PUSHED them aside after looking at cancerous images
So many people are pronouncing DeviantArt wrong. It's "DEE-VEH-UNT" art. Get it right.
-I'm gonna start a flamewar, aren't I?-
Osom Legends i guess you didnt
YES YES YESSSS thank you SOOO much!! THAT IS HOW YOU PRONOUCE IT PEOPLE!!!
"DEE-VEE-ENT"?
Osom's Funhouse yes you are XD (just kidding)
Osom's Funhouse oh and by the way it's just his accent
Fun OC Power Idea: The "Prism Wispon", a wispon that can switch between different wisp powers at a moment's notice, with the drawback of having severely reduced effects. It's versatile, but not overpowered.
My oc had a giant metal muzzler fuzed onto her skull by rouges she tried to outsmart. This disability lead her to eventually learn telekinesis, but the metal still makes it hard for her to breath and eat. She often takes breaks from using her powers to meditate and recharge. This character is a Tasmanian Devil, which are known to bite when attacking in the real world. This is another disadvantage of the metal cuff, preventing her from using her natural power, and forcing her to use a harder technique in order to survive.
"This video is NOT meant to roast Sonic OC's!"
*Proceeds to roast Sonic OC's*
No no no, roasting would be like “This OC is so badly designed and unoriginal that it’s not even worthy to become an NFT.”
He’s stating the flaws with Sonic OC’s and how people can improve them.
i was playing a sonic oc game on roblox, and i came across this thing called "ICE SONIC", and the description was this:
MORE POWERFUL THAN EVERYONE AND CAN FLY
wow
Sometimes your oc is so goodly drawn that it looks like an official character SO much that it looks like a recolor
How to make a Sonic OC:
1. Get a image of Sonic
2. Get a recolour tool
3. Locate the recolour tool
4. Give it a "original" name.
5. Profit.
WHO DREW THAT!!!! 7:50
My ass
CritiX The Edge lord YOUR ASS IS EVIL
Tainic
moms spaghetti
Eminem
I like sonic ocs. There are so many and a lot of them can be unique. The recolors are just a minority. The female ones, design wise are the best to look at since the female ones tend to have more customization to them.
Something you forgot, there's too many hedgehogs, seriously we have enough official Hedgehogs as it is, why not try animals that haven't been seen in the Sonic style very much if at all like raindeer, wombats or seals etc.?
Mine is more of gaming OC but he has the Sonic design. His name is Robert Decev, a supposedly normal gamer and Sonic fan who saves the world in a Secret Rings Styled story. I would explain the backstory, but it's hard for me to put it in a nutshell.
let's make a joke
s.n.t
WOW LOL XDDD
This comment is *_special_*!
ah so sad but true
what farfoxx22 i do the same read more trick omg
Accurate.
I created a Sonic OC in a Roblox game called Sonic Pulse and I love her-
Her name is Maya btw and I couldn't really choose whether I should make her a cat or a hedgehog so I made her both. I even created a separate human character called Aria Brown (she's a young scientist who loves tea, is always tired and specialises in genetic modification) and kinda weaved her into Maya's backstory. Basically, she was created by Aria (Aria felt like creating a Mobian friend because she was kinda lonely) and sees her as a mother figure. In case you're wondering what Maya's personality is like, she's kinda got a similar personality to me lol (aka she's just a very chill introvert who is kinda able to make friends easily)
Also, in Sonic Pulse, I created a super form for her. She does have fire powers, but she can only use them in her super form =w=
I'm just really proud of myself for making a Sonic OC that I actually like besides this other obscure edgelord kitsune I created called Soul okay-
3:28 Pro Tip: Green is not a creative color. Don't use it.
true
Rylan Brooks lol, a dhmis reference
Let all agree to never get creative again 📋
my first oc was green
Rylan Brooks my first oc is red orange and yellow
I have one that I thought the backstory was pretty decent.
He's a royal hedgehog who went out to play with his friends one day. The weather got bad and a blizzard occurred. He hit his head on a rock and got amnesia, now he has to find his way back home without knowing anything about himself with his new friends from a different place.
Pretty weird huh?
Super weird.
what about the fan character eggette/omellette?
My OC:
Name: Decibel
Species: Wolf
Age: 16
Description: Light gray with icy blue eyes (the one eye thing), cobalt blue boots, a watch, a Mohawk, and scars all over. He is an anti-hero, and is kind of a psycho lunatic, but he means well. He speaks in a Scottish accent much akin to Soap MacTavish from the Call of Duty games.
Backstory: Decibel the Wolf was raised in the bitterly cold tundras of Siberia. As such, he is used to the bitter cold. When he wasn’t playing outside in the snow, he was listening to metal and its subgenres. He learned how to scream, and every scream he did was louder and louder. One day, he went out into the wilderness to hunt for food, but he became lost and didn’t know where to go. As he became more and more stressed, he realized his gloves turned from white to blue. _That’s weird_ he thought. He started playing music, and the first scream he did knocked him back a few meters. The town would experience a sonic boom. Eventually, he made it back home and started trying to control his scream charge ups. After several months, he was able to control his screams.
Likes: Heavy Metal Music, first person shooter games, fighting, working out, snowboarding, sports, and talking smack.
Dislikes: Pop music, fourth wall breaks, LARP, cosplay, furries, Shadow, and stupidity.
Powers: The ability to scream up to 400 decibels in volume. If you are within 10 meters of him screaming, you will go deaf for up to 48 hours. However, he is weak to speed and repeated homing attacks. He can’t move as fast as speed types, so if a speed type can just spam homing attacks, he’s done for.
Please don’t steal my ideas. From what I know, this is original.
Sonic OCs are shit because people keep on making HEDGEHOGS, FOXES AND ECHIDNAS.
No other creature, just the main trio, and if its a robot they are overpowered as shit.
Cinos the Dense potato I've actually made two that aren't any of those surprisingly, they don't have a backstory or powers yet.
andrew de grosa like what are they?
Cinos the Dense potato One is a turtle, and one is a blue jay. While I did draw them both a while ago I started drawing them again to sort of give them a better look. I was lacking creativity back when I made the blue jay and just straight up gave him jet's boots. :/
andrew de grosa huh.
Well a turtle is interesting, maybe he could go faster underwater but would still need air to survive.
Cinos the Dense potato all you need to do is look up "red data animals list" or rare animals and you'll get a list on Google. Also I have found looking into what a real animal strengths and weaknesses is and enhance them makes your character more interesting.
I don't know if this counts, but I'm working on a couple of D&D characters that I plan to adapt for a Sonic fanfic.
The two of them are part of a conclave of rangers:
One´s a wolf called Revenant. Once part of a tribe of wolves, an encounter with a Mind Flayer had him thrown into the outplanes where he was left to die or go insane until he was found by a race called the Gith who taught him how to channel the energies of the plane in order to escape. Since then, he hunts extraplanar threats, eventually forming his own conclave.
The other is Goldberg, a Dwarf. Hailing from a clan of monster hunters, Goldberg's journey to track down a long lost treasure led him to discover an interest in artificing, which he uses to augment his wrapons and equipment. He has an especial distain for people who use technology for nefarious purposes.
I made my own sonic OC and it looked great the backstory was he was born from a planet of fire the power are he's s fire god and he can run faster than sonic if u were wondering about the name it was "emerald the fire hedgehog"
Emerald The hedgehog ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME
Pretell...
What is the meaning of Sonic OC characters?..
Emerald The hedgehog
TOO OVERPORWERED
"he was born from a planet of fire"
i like this
"he's a fire god"
welp
Emerald The hedgehog hence your TH-cam name
I don't think I've ever seen Silver favorably compared to anyone. Every dog gets his day, I guess.
tell me what you think about my OC
note it is based off multiple people in different universes so here we go
I was the Pikachu ash has al was going well one day until a void appeared out of nowhere and ash was sucked in to the void and what was left was his hat and I wore it forever so then a mad scientist caught me out of nowhere and took me to his lab he encaged me but he fed me and gave me water and taught me how to speak English I was tested on a lot and I mean a LOT so one day a officer jenny with other cops came in and arrested the mad scientist and freed me and I was running when a vial of chemicals spilt all over me and I just kept running and I got out into the forest... so after that I took a nap and the next morning I decided to take a little walk and I just had the urge to go fast I didn't know why so I ran. the second I started to run it was like time stopped and I was running very fast and I stopped to think about what just happened and it turns out that the vial of chemicals made m speed stat go up high and I was the fastest thing life no joke I was probably faster than sonic shadow and flash combined. skip ahead a few months I was still thinking abut ash and how I missed him and how I helped dangerd pokemon with my speed. so I was relaxing and that void came up again and I was shocked at first but I soon jumped in to find ash as soon as I jumped in it was dark purple everywhere and I explored everywhere yelling ASH because I could speak and a while of searching I came across a skeleton wearing a blue coat and pink slippers I asked wo he was ad he came running at me saying have you seen my brother and I had to say no but than I asked have you seen a kid named ash and he said no and he said how about we work together to try and find them and I agreed and he had tears in his eyes so I figured he wasn't lying after a few hours we found another skeleton and I thought that was his brother so I said hello are you this skeleton brother. he stared the opposite way from me and sans said that it was not his brother and it was his dad and he was MAD. so I backed up and gaster said don't leave I'm lonely and encaged me with dark matter and it engulfed me and I blacked out and I woke up later and I was strapped to a hospital bed stabilized to the ground and he said. I'm going to make you powerful but focused on destroying everything and after that I backed out again and I was in my mind with another version of me but different he was a grey skeleton with ash's hat a yellow jacket just like sans and black shots with grey stripes and blue slippers and an angel wing and a demon wing and he said... I'm in control now... I woke up to normal but I was changing into that skeleton I saw in my mind and I was destroying everything and escaped with sans because I was turning back to normal and sans tought me about how to open voids to other universes/dimensions and I worked to save universes with KIT my friends OC and my brothers OC masterbuilder and I still go mad sometimes but I can now control my super form better but I need LOTS OF POWER!! so I often go to the sonic universe to get most of the power sources like chaos emeralds master emerald. and I do have weaknesses like water I cant swim and I struggle and that is why I work with people.
THANK YOU so much for reading my story if you don't like it than to bad its your fault for reading it :D
I hope you guys comment what your OC is if you want and have a nice day!!!
Chuckles The Knuckles
I want to die
One tip I could provide with OC powers is to try to base it on the animals you try to base it on.
For instance, if you make a cheetah for an OC, the way I'd put it is to make the cheetah faster than Sonic (since real-life cheetahs are about six times faster than real life hedgehogs when dashing), but only for, say, 10 seconds (because cheetahs can easily tire if they dash) in which the cheetah would be forced to move as fast as a normal human.
If you were to go for a gorilla, give it super strength, but also make it slow as heck.
If you were to go for an eagle or a hawk, give the eagle/hawk exceptional timing or accuracy, but also make the hawk lightweight and easily knocked back.
At least that's my take.
I sonic ocs because I love to see how they think and act to other ocs and characters but there are Mary Sues who are shipped / related to sonic characters . ocs shouldn't get shipped and or related to sonic characters it's not right I have one that just works with her 2 year older sister at a veggie farm her only power is she can smell stuff from 3 Miles away .
Nontoxic Cat Example: Akai Daelia
Sonicwind67 _ You seen it too?
KJ Setser yes it's utterly... disgusting
And pro tip: If you want to create 5 OCs, but only focus on 2, then what's the point of the other 3? I have only 2 Fc's, a hedgehog named Alpha who has cosmic powers that should only used for 10 minutes at a time or else his body gets strained immensely, and his companion who is a 2 feet tall Kabuto beetle named Nano who can shrink to the size of an actual beetle
Nontoxic Cat what if your oc has a crush on Mighty? Mighty is never used as a crush for an oc haha
Here’s an oc I made a few years back for sonic
Evo the Phoenix
Abilities:Wisp Fusion,Pretty Strong,Not as fast as sonic but has a great amount of speed,Flight,Flame control and Is able to heal his wounds as well as the wounds of others.
He was at first a explorer trying to follow in his father’s footsteps of being a known explorer and while flying finds the lost world. When he is exploring he ends up not being able to leave until he meets a crimson eagle wisp he named Wing and so Wing promised to help Evo escape as long as he takes Wing to see the outside world as he’s quite bored of his world. Once he agrees Wing then infuses with Evo and takes control of him to lead him out of the world to see earth. Evo’s main weapons are a greatsword which he’s surprisingly fast with,Wing because Wing can morph into weapons but his main choice is a gun that can fire wisp or the fire that Evo can create. The one time he had fought with the freedom fighters is when Wing was taken from Evo and he was forced to join them to get his Wingman back (See what I did there) and uses the other wisps whomst he barely used or talked to. That is when he learns to treat his wisps equally instead of only using Wing. As he finally frees an energy drained Wing,Eggman infuses the energy of wing into the egg dragoon and wreaks havoc with terrifying speed as he and Sonics friends have to work together to stop Eggman and get Wings energy back. If I should work anything out lmk cause I’m thinking of continuing the story
My sonic OC is a Cat
Cynder the Cat
Colors?
3D Blast
and Knuckles
Big the Cat
HD
my oc is called fierin the hedgehog
he is an orange hedgehog with spine formation like seelkadoom(sonic oc)
and he basically has fire powers like blaze with some original attacks. he comes from the king emerald(master emerald but fiery) just like chaos and looked like chaos until eggman nega captured him and tried to give it sonic and blaze's dna so he could use sol(former name) to defeat blaze and sonic but he broke free during the mind control process, he now lives with knuckles helping with the master emerald, he is friends with sonic and friends and also joined the resistance and he helped knuckles build a house around the master emerald, he doesnt have the ability to talk
XD sonic forces
a backstory is already good as long as it won't affect the main story with the canon characters..you gotta see your character's story as one that did not happen around the canon characters.for fanfictions/rps the best way to start off is when your chaeracter still have to meet the canon characters..well that's what i learned from a friend of mine when i still made cringy backstories >.
My sonic oc is the lost twin sister of Sonic.😂 When they were kids and their special powers (the power of my oc is pressing pure energy together and creating things like weapons with it. This things disappear when she want ) showed up, people were after them. Sonic was saved by Longclaw (this owl from the sonic movie) and my charakter was stolen by a forest clan or something. Years later she was found by sonic there and she came with him.
... or something...😅🦔
Later she became the guardian of the 7 chaos emeralds.
Here is my OC ability:
[THE TROOPER]
The user can absorb the abilities of machines. After the user absorbs the ability of a machine, it cannot be used again (Also, it can't be absorbed again). Ever. After the user absorbs a machine's power, the user can turn into that machine (though the user can use it with arms, legs etc. For example, the user can turn his/her legs into wheels and such). The user can also combine machine's abilities. For example, the user can turn into a tank with a car's speed and weight, while still retaining the tank's durability and cannon. The user can only use 3 different types of machines, If the user wants to use another type then he/she'll have to dispose one of her 3 types of machine which erases the abilities the user absorbed for that type. If the user wants to get his/her powers back, then they'll have to absorb the abilities all over again. When the user absorbs a machine that he/she already haves (of the same type ((tanks,planes,cars etc)) ) , the abilities of the machine are added, not multiplied. The appearance of the machine the user transforms to depends on the best one absorbed by the user (the best plane, the best tank, the best car, yatta yatta yatta whatever).
the "bad oc" topic is part of every fandom really. over the top colorful fursonas, bad sonic ocs and every mlp oc sporting some sort of dark color. while some of it is true, its subjective to every single character themselves really and nothing should be judged by the design, as long as it looks well drawn at least and is definitely meant to be serious.
to powers and backstories... yea, you basically can instantly tell if its a person with inferiority complex or a kid who made the character just by looking at that. also goes for all fandoms obviously. matching abilities with the universe they live in isn't always easy since creativity kinda is limited because of that, but the result feels better.
Backstory is difficult as it needs the most effort and such. as a character designer and writer myself i have had enough time doing that and just creating a lot of different characters for all sorts of fandoms is fun if you really get the hang of it. i would recommend not only trying yourself on ocs, but just characters in general. it helps improving and maybe a oc will end up much more accurate to what it should be when doing so.
... or throw all of that out of the window and get yourself the first pic you see, recolor it in a unfitting color and give it a stupid name with a constant kamehameha shooting from there eyes 24/7
I'm nearly a decade late commenting on this video, but the screenshot of that character from that spanish sonic series @ 5:19 just made me remember how insane that series was XDDDD. Basically every episode was split into two halfs. 50% of it was OP versions of Sonic characters having huge battles and the other 50% was the characters doing the do.
I made my character a green sonic once with a red shirt, yellow scarf, and blue shorts with a bit of hair covering one of his eyes and a few bangs on the front. He had an 8th Chaos Emerald around his neck. Oh, and he was the son of a goddess at one point. (now I just make his mother a former mage), and I THINK I gave him all of Sonic's abilities, except he was still trying to learn the boost because every time he boosted, he would end up tripping, and I also made him not AS fast as Sonic, but at least fast enough to kinda catch up with him. God, why did I think this was ok?
Now I think I just have him be able to spindash, but it's not as powerful as Sonic's, and he only learned it from various recordings of Sonic on TV.
so, my main OC [basically starting to get back into it slowly]'s base is nick the weasel, although I have changed colors and added a bit, I mean, i'm no sprite genius so I won't say he's...amazing. I may go back and try to edit in extra but it's a WIP
Backstory: At the age of 18, after finishing school he left his home to explore the world and got a job as a bounty hunter. As a bounty hunter his skills were...lackluster. He worked everyday to get better and better, eventually rising through the ranks and gaining the master sniper nickname. Eventually, he leaves a bounty hunter group after a mission has him run into a situation. From there he meets many other characters and eventually a sealed evil arises and he finds himself against the evil with the help of others...Or something to that effect, story ain't complete yet and I really need to think of how I want to write this character. He's got no special powers and is just really good with a gun. He does wear a scouter in order to aim more precisely and find an enemy's weak point or open area.
how to make a sonek oc:
1: draw elmo first
2: erase the face of elmo (including the eyes)
3: add lenny face
4:add some sketchers to make it look cool (I guess)
5:add the sanek speid
6: horrible backstory
7: FUCK OFF
NOW U GOT YOURSELF A AMAZING SONEK OC
WHY ARE YOU READING THIS
I have an OC that is a blue fox named Max Prower. He is Tails' older brother, but got taken to war when tails was just a baby. He lost his right eye and arm, and had them replaced with G.U.N. technology. His arm is basically like inspector gadget or Captain hook's hook (From "Jake and the neverland pirates") because he can transform it into various different tools and weapons to suit his need. For example, say he needs to help his brother with a machine, he could turn his arm into a drill. Or say he needed to get up to a high place, he could make his hand into a propeller.
Before reuniting, Tails only remembered that his brother was blue, hence him being so close to sonic. Unlike Tails, Max has just one tail. Max's eye has heat seeking abilities, can shoot a laser, and detect life. He became a mercenary, but always brings his targets in alive. Letting someone else take the blame.
For most Sonic OCs, it's usually a question of how and when the OC will immediately become overpowered. Not by some kind of development, just an immediate coincidence of power! Others are well thought and given good character as for personality and backstory. I can't say I nitpick so much over design since we've already seen alot of already put clichés into most Sonic OCs nowadays. But, the Sonic Fandom with it's OCs are alright at best. Some are great while others...I don't even know where they'll go next. Hope to see something better soon, but thanks for the video. Gives many points on the usual guidelines people use for these characters.
1. *draws an OC that's supposed to be a wolf*
2. *thinks to self why it looks like tails shadow and sonic got mixed up together*
3. *gives him a story of being in a nation that is short on man power and started recruiting child soldiers.*
4. *gets him making some mistakes(deaths of friends cuz wars). that he quickly learns and adapt to.*
5. *Thinks it seems a bit edgy because the character now seem a bit stonic.*
6. *tries to brunt the edgyness attitude of the character*
7. **gives up and doesn't bother making a story anymore**
And here I am on Tumblr publishing my 5 year old sonic OC who changed species and names to appeal to people, but hey at least she's ,in my opinion, more fleshed out than before.
I always alot of oc concepts a day. I scrap a lot but the ones that are good i try to develop them. As powers go it mainly depends on animal or what they are based on them. For backstorys go i write a lot of backstory drafts and pick which one are good.
This video is so good, sometimes I don't watch anything else on TH-cam except for this. I might have even watched this all day at one point! Great video, Knight Of The Wind!
I do like RPing some times when i have some free time and I have about 4 characters that I might use... but rarely do they even get used. Mostly because with the people I know they just don't fit in anywhere XD. 2 of them are rival photographers working for magazines and newpapers, They are the ones who would go into the danger zones where the real heroes are and take pictures of the action. Just one of them tries to record the true things while the other one doctors up the photos using optical magic for illusions. No photoshop needed :P. I draw all my characters |D.
I remeber my first fan-character...
He's history was basically a copy of Shadow history. He was able to manipulate Chaos energy,and he kind look like a serious rock n'roll fan. And...he was a hedgehog.
He name was....
Dark Green. Yeah,awesome name.
Can't say I hate them, on the contrary I love them.
Even the badly made ones, I just don't like it when they get uppity about when I suggest they don't use bases so often, or when I suggest not to use too many bright colors. Because neon can hurt the eyes if all over the screen, also it is recommended by many pros to use a limited amount of colors.
In the end I was the rude one, I did kinda appear out of nowhere and suggest ways to improve without constant.
The whole "unwanted criticism."
I thought I was in the right but IDK, which do you think is worst: Suggesting things that you think could help them, even though they didn't ask for it.
Or just not bothering giving tips, when you're sure that it really could help them.
Either way, I'm not going to be giving tips unless someone asks from now on.
My Sonic OC was created as the figure head of my art page (not active as much anymore but I’m trying to start up again).
They’re name is Amazonite The Fox (Mazzy)
A fox with a racing mind of creativity. Pretty good at befriending others, but enjoys their independence.
They have white fur with purple and green hair, and dons some minor piercings.
Usually, Sonic OCs are born/created/live on Mobius. Strangely, not mine. My OC, Orion, was created on Earth, genetically enhanced to become a powerful foe for a massive tech company, CoreTech. once, he was an average hedgehog on Earth. In the matter of days, his body changed. He became able to run on two legs. He looked more like a character that would fit in the Sonic multiverse. He actually did become a powerful foe for CoreTech, and actually won against them, sending them away from his home, West island. Now, the remnants of a city lie in the middle of the island, with flora slowly bringing it down.
Anyways, I spent a sloid... 15 minutes on this. i'm gonna go sleep-
my sonic oc I haven't drawn yet but he's DEFINITELY balanced..I haven't worked out the backstory much yet
the reason MY OC looks like shadow is because HE IS HIS SON DAMMIT
Team Invar has an oc that been in production for the last 3 years. And is almost done we just got to come up with the design
One thing I find important if making a Sonic OC, or just a character in general, the backstory and personality are most important. I know some may not completely agree with me on this, but as .a writer, I make sure to stay true to this statement.
In order for a Sonic OC (or any other kind of OC, or an actual original character, as in not bonded to any series), the character must be able to stand alone without any sort of physical design, or powers. Yes, you can construct their appearance as well as their powers while still working on their personality and backstory, and their story can always change, but in order for it to be good. You must be able to describe your character without even mentioning appearance or powers. If you are able to do this, and the story you come up with is balanced (and doesn't relate too much to another character's backstory if it is an OC from a series), then you have a good character right there.
My old OC was a shape-shifter from a submerged Atlantis-like kingdom who seeks the help of Sonic & friends before Eggman takes over the kingdom.
Got rid of her because she was a Mary-Sue, took too much screen time, and was badly written & drawn.
Her name was Sony-Mae (after my old DeviantArt username), and I deeply regret making her.😔
But if I was to revive the OC (which I won't for the sack of everyone who hated/will hate her); I'd change her into a siren (the fish kind)-like creature named Lei Lei, who still has a shape-shifting ability but is curious thing (like Madison from "Splash" or Ariel from "The Little Mermaid" ).
She's not in love with anyone (which would be a huge relief), but she does find Sonic & his land friends cute, and can't help but wanting to hug & nuzzle them all...even if she gets them all soaked with water.😅
I made an oc named Subzero and I finally made a backstory, so I'll summarize it:
Subzero lives on a place called Icebound Mountain after being taken hostage from her hometown. She was an important citizen there, but all she has left now are her combat talents and ice skates that she uses to fight. After being shoved onto the frozen ground, she fought the bandits that captured her in the beginning, and emerged (barely) victorious. Everything she does in battle and survival is purely from memories and instinct.
I know it's not great but I wanna know what you think!
My OC hasn't been fully designed yet but I have some story
His name is Remi The possible bird or black Fox.
He is a cousin of an other oc I made.Remi was the first to start the future that silver comes from he has telekinesis powers like silver's.
Silver came to his present before he was born Remi met Silver and silver found out about Remis powers much like his own.
He began training with silver seeing silver like a big brother to him.
But then silver had to go back to his present saying that Remi is the beginning of the future.
And then that's where Remi started his mission setting out for the future.
I'm cringe and I'm too into story..;-;
What people regard as traits of a bad OC character are also stuff generally regarded as bad writing on an original work :
- A badly made and uninteresting overpowered character?.
- A filler unengaging backstory?.
- A melting pot of incongruent elements interacting each other in the most banal way possible?(E. g. just check any sonic adventures, Sonic 06 or Sonic X )
- Icky romantic relationships?
- Characters as plain and dull as a wooden plank? (blaze,tikal, gerald robotnik,Maria,Eggman Nega,etc.)
- Dialogues that doesn't contribute anything to convey character or relevant info?.....
Most of this can be found plentifully on almost any post adventure Sonic game. IMO crappy fanfiction derived from canon's bad writing and also started obnoxious trends such as the character bio profile.
Except when it comes to following some integral design patterns, I think you can take as much as creative freedom you want when writing or designing an OC, and end up with something good. General writing guidelines also apply here.
Therefore, my suggestions to make an OC more engaging to others, are:
- It doesn't matter whether you're modifying an existent story arc or creating something new, really. What It matters is the consistency with the place and your OC characteristics, also try to keep the cartoonish tone of the franchise. This is far more important than the design of your OC.
- Quality sources from mythology, ancient literature, sci fi, movies,rpgs etc are the finest places to take inspiration from. Reduce the sonic plot from its lowest denominator and start adding your own stuff from there. For example, you wanna write something related to tikal and her tribe? Research mesoamerican civilizations(specially mayan), read popol vuh, etc....
- This applies to your OC's backstory aswell. The fewer starting lines you use the better, Is far more engaging to tell the story instead of just dump a wall of text explaining your OC's backstory. Imagine you're reading a book or comic, how many times you've found the author telling you everything about a character starting from the first page? Zero, right?. You're writing a story, not a wikipedia summary.
- Sonic canon is basically a cartoonish action franchise. The key of an engaging sonic story is keepin' it somewhat simple and not get too serious. Avoid the mistake Sonic Team made with SA 2 backstory and Sonic 2006.
- Respect canon characters personalities if used. Unless you state that you're making an alternate universe or any other valid excuse that fiction writers do.
- Use multimedia/graphic resources(comics,animation, flash, pixel art etc.) to tell ur story instead of just plain text. Sonic is predominantly aesthetics over substance (It relies on tropes and pop culture elements as identity traits), this is not A song of ice and fire, Dune, 2001 space oddisey or Hamlet.
My OC is a wolf named Kyo. A failed attempt at a robot. After escaping and being destroyed - Tails fixes him and reprogrammed Kyo to work with Sonic and his friends. Eggman gave Kyo teleportation and (this character was made around Sonic Forces) tried fusing the phantom ruby with his energy core. This is another reason why he was destroyed. This gives him the power to glitch through dimensions.
I know it’s edgy and stuff but I love him ;/;
My OC is a Sonic Forces OC called Enigma. She is a gray cat with a blue-ish green stripes. She wears a t-shirt and a striped tie, with some long sort of Converse similar shoes.
She isnt only from SF because i didnt play it yet. She likes and has been friendzoned by Blaze repeatedly. Her backstory is of a normal kid who wasnt really acepted in school for liking male clothings. But today she is a carefree and pretty sassy OC. Her only power is an blue aura that can make an explotion from maximum a normal sized house, but nothing more than that. She had a crush on Sonic, but when she realized he was a bit stupid she abandoned the idea of trying a relationship .-.
my oc is trash
I’m known as the “Artist” in my class...but as SOON as I draw Sonic and my OCs everyone hates my drawings. This has built up my confidence and also pulled it back down. Now I think ima terrible artist
my specialty is making backstory´s for my oc´s because i make them like a normal person with something different to make them stand out from the rest of the characters in the world they live in but nothing too different.
I remember making am oc a while back. She was an op 3 tailed fox. I decided to remake her. She's still a 3 tailed fox (Kitsune) with the ability to shapeshift into a human woman ,like in the original folklore of Kitsunes . She's still a wip though.
I like Sonic OCs because they are used by people's imagination, and Art to make them the best they can if they are good. That's my reasoning for liking Sonic OCs.
I laughed when I saw the picture of the yellow sonic with Alphy's face. That expression was hilarious.
I really fucking regret making a Sonic OC...
He was basically Sonic and Shadow Combined...
His name was Zero...
*_T H E C L I C H E I S R E A L_*
I just want some feedback here but im making a pink fox OC called Sakura:
(General, just read this if your in a hurry):
she can only use the Normal emeralds and Super emeralds but can only use them for a really short time due to inexperience, she can be kind but can get killed or knocked out VERY easily, she got a strong power from her mother who is a goddess of negativity even though both of them don't have immortality she only uses the fling ability since thats the only one she has discovered and without those powers (the weaker she gets the weaker the power gets) she cant defend herself, well at least, and normally leads to her mother protecting her.
(Backstory):
She was tortured by her mother and any other evil beings and even her sister Sarith tried helping her out but had her own problems at the times, she eventually escaped and rarely got possessed by her mother and forced to attack her freinds, she somehow made her mother change her heart and ever since then her mother protected her.
My oc is named Trigger. He was 8 years old and lived on North Island all his life. When his 14 year old brother Tucker collected all 7 chaos emeralds, he tried to escape Mobius, as Robotnik had taken over. Trigger trips over the edge of North Island and is caught by Tucker. But two humans, Luke and Jack, using the portal Tucker created with the emeralds, save them, and discover Tails, and Knuckles (wearing a Stetson... And no Sonic) and try to fight Robotnik and his head pawn, Zotron.
Do not steal.
you've just saved me a lot of trubble! I've been trying make an oc thats not a stupid recolour of sonic on my DA. I'm going to keep on trying
There are SO many problems that I have with sonic oc's. Most are unoriginal and they just recolor sonic characters into a purple version of it. And they make their OC fall in love with sonic. If I made a sonic oc? I would make a good story about my OC.
Honestly, I've been a bit absent on media's, only because I'm trying to get better. As soon as I'm good enough, I'm making videos and art of my OCs. I honestly believe that Sonic OCs can be good. People just gotta try harder!
This is my Sonic Oc's power:
He can turn himself into a light ball and particles that are his body, he can make anything on him into that to, but he can only hold that form for 1 hour, and can go through walls and attack, but he was a pretty normal wolf when he was a pup, and his family has the running genetics of that power
Sunky's Backstory:
"Lemme make a new sonic meme and then a game."
Here's my oc I created when I was 8, I hate it so much but here's her original backstory before I improved it
Crystal the cat, who is a princess of a far away land from the north who can control the element of ice (oh god it's already bad-) one day she got kidnapped by Eggman until Sonic, tails & Knuckles saved her. Ever since then she tries to get Sonic's attention for him to love her ((I seriously wrote a story about this in one of my old journals))
Improved version of her backstory
Crystal is just a normal cat who has heard about Sonic and friends but she never met them. She still has the ability of ice but it's quite weak unless she has a energy source (like a chaos emerald). She usually just spends her time tinkering with machinery or reading
I would like any criticism to improve her, I just want to try to make a difference when it comes to "cringy sonic characters"
Do you wanna see my OCs, Knight of the Wind? They're called Sid the Hero and Ominous. They're from the Sonic Fanon Wiki.
I have an OCs too. But one of My fav OC is Lady the Hadgehog :D I think her story is very deep and I freaking intl that character desing and personality :D
My OC-Kara the WolfHog (Idk)
Backstory- Kara was created by Nazo in the war of the creations, and hedgehogs (Not real event) She had a little bro named Nitro. He was two years younger than Kara. Kara had shapeshifting powers and loved to trick the other children in the lab, mostly her father, Nazo. One day, the old lab blew up and everyone evacuated to the forest. They followed Nazo and he got stabbed in the heart by another hedgehog. He became a little gem and Kara kept it until they found somewhere else to stay. They stayed at a wooden cabin for a few weeks, then hedgehog warriors bursted into their cabin. The warriors names were Zark, Chills, Void, and Leafy. Zark tried to destroy them but Void said they should take them with them to a nursery they opened. Other creation children were there. Kara and Nitro were exited and happy to see others like them. She went to school with the whole group and met Faston, Sonic's big brother. Nitro met Sonic that day and didn't stop talking about him, how fast he ran, His dad, Mr. Speedswarp was a racer! She met their father and he greeted them, he wore glasses. Kara was happy. When they left, they stayed at the nursery, because it was Sunday! Zark got killed a month later...The over 23 kids attacked the killer and eventually told Void and Chills and Leafy. Zark's funeral was next Monday. After that they grew all together until they could survive on their own. Nitro went to live alone, so did Kara. She misses her little bro. The siblings still talk by messaging eachother on a phone. Now she lives in the small town of Warensville. And lives in a lab and hid her father's decaying gem there.
My OC Ray Ray the wolf I think has a good back story, I started making an origin story for him on Wattpad.
Basically he was born in a temple with a wolf tribe and was meant to grow to be the balance between good and evil, however this all changed as another tribe came to attack, the parents of Ray Ray ran off with him as fast as they could before dying themselves, this left the young wolf alone and scared.
He was saved after being attacked by a bear from a wolf named Emily, who unlike Ray Ray was not a mobian wolf but a normal wolf and lived in a pack of normal wolves who saw Ray Ray as different and not one of them, he was made fun of for this, bullied, some of the wolves even beat him so much he'd be passed out in a pool of his own blood, Emily tried to protect Ray Ray as much as she could.
Things turned really bad as all of Ray Ray's dark emotions of rage, fear and hatred turned into another entity known as dark Ray Ray, he isn't a physical being, more like a spirit, he'd make Ray Ray suffer and wanted to put Ray Ray under so much suffering he'd agree to give up his very being, allowing his dark counter part to gain the body he needed to rule over everything.
After years of the bad treatment Ray Ray had enough, he pretty much snapped, taking the dark thoughts and feelings he had and using them as power known as dark energy, this was all under the influence of dark Ray Ray of course.
Ray Ray began killing all the wolves with these new powers of his, but he then accidentally killed Emily in his rage, he was all alone, and scared, and lost.
Anyway that's the main point of his back story. He later forms a team of other OCS called the Mega OCS however that's not the main part of his origin as that was just something I did with some of my friends on sonic amino who have OCS.
Hope you enjoyed, if you didn't oh well 😂
Ravenray 167 I enjoyed it I have an oc as well...but I haven't think an original backstory...
