Original character
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Often created by TARTlets, but found all over the internet, an Original Character is either one of two things:
- A character in Fanfiction that is not part of canon
- A character in original fiction
Although these can be well done, many damn nearly all of these fall into the Mary Sue trap. These characters are usually self inserts of the artist, always depicting themselves with Mary Sue qualities and having every male anime fag in the drawing fawning all over them. Scientists believe this is some form of compensating for their lack of a life IRL.
The moniker "original character" itself is (of course) ironic, as less than two percent of all original characters are in fact possessed of the slightest shred of originality. Truly "original" characters nowadays are as rare as fucking Bigfoot.
Often abbreviated as "OC".

Kinds of OCs
Furries
Many furfags self-obsess with their Sonic the Hedgehog phase and therefore tracing art of their favorite Sonic character and just changing the colors and making the outfits moar tight and moar slutty. Some have even gone as far as actually making costumes and wearing them to cons.
Kingdom Hearts
Kingdom Hearts is possibly the greatest thing to happen to fandomkind since the interbutts. In a dazzling display of whoring out to fans and making countless amounts of money, Square Enix did the unthinkable and combined the greatest sources of hentai into a shitty video game: animu, Disney, and Final Fantasy in a raging romp of repeatedly raping random Disney movies and characters. Fusion of this much pure retard is responsible for destroying the ability of tartlets to pick differing cartoon characters to draw.
As if there weren't enough Kingdom Hearts fanboys and fangirls, they continue to create countless OCs in form of keyweilders, nobody, and heartless. There are many clubs dedicated to the genocide pool of disaster like Org Infinity.
