1. Obviously it is (but it isn't a full out recolor of another character, this is my own original character aka OC)
2. I didn't draw this (used a OC creation tool)

It's an FC i think OC means it has no basis in a series not created or co-created by you.

Guys it isn't a recolored, no in-show pony has this combination of features.

@Assassinelf I am pretty sure it is an OC if my brony terminology is correct
@Commandergame Please note this is suppose to be me if I were a pony (technically pegasus but whatever)

This is very correct. It's a fan character. An original character is one created for your own original story not having to do with any characters from an existing franchise or story. There is no such thing as an "MLP OC"


Still, other bronies call there avatar ponies OCs so it does work.

Well they're wrong. Unless they are the creators of MLP, it is a fan character, not an original character. Fan characters are characters you make, but they live in a world that you didn't make. An original character is a character you made that lives in a world you made.

Such care for such things. So many titles for such things.

I think it's nice what you've done but not a character that would please me to see. Likely because it feels like it'll play a nerdish role which aren't always played out great.

It's not Brony terms..... It's actual RP terminology....

OC = Original Character
FC = Fan Character
CC = Canon Character

The textbook definitions are...

Canon Character is self-explanatory. The actual characters from said universes such as that Rainbow pony and the pink one wSpyro always has as his avatar or Naruto, Goku, etc, you get the point.

Fan Character is a character which one creates solely for the purpose of existing in the world of the pre-existing universe of a tv show, movie, book, etc. Making up your own character who goes on travels with Sonic the Hedgehog, Mario, or fan-made ponies.

Original Character is a character you make for a world you make. It exists in no fandom world and is 100% your creation.

People can get annoyed by this and fight to the death that the difference between the terms is as different as day and night. Though there can be some gray to this. The OC doesn't necessarily have to have a world to go with them, simply a fully original character you make. An OC can be an FC and an FC can be on OC. This is a case where the character could be used in any universe pre-existing or your own original one with even the slightest tweek to allow them to change what world they can live in.

As presented, it would be an FC, though if it is still your own character that you could rework into existing in any universe and isn't necessarily entirely bound to the universe you are presenting it to us and solely existing in, then yeah, I'd say it's an OC.


Besides, I think this more belongs in Non-Spyro.....


Back to the main point though...... Eww ponies.

Yes, hello~ I'm the Character Fairy, and I'm here to help you understand some things that you seem to be confused about!

Without further ado?

This, good sir, is an OC:
[User Posted Image]
This is Flame. He belongs to my good friend AngelicBeast. Why is he an OC? Because he lives in his own realm, a realm created by AB for her babies! Flame is unique in lore, design, and personality. That makes him an OC.

This
[User Posted Image]
Is Windspin, an FC of your creation. Windspin is an FC because he is a Pegasus pony from the MLP universe. He hangs out with the likes of Pinkie Pie and Rarity, creations of Lauren Faust, who is, sadly, not you. Windspin is not unique in universe and design, so he is an FC. There's nothing wrong with FCs, no, but what's wrong is mixing up the two.

I'm not here to start arguements, simply here to help clear up some unnecessary mix-ups!

Sincerely,

The Character Fairy~

That is honestly bull crap. It's still basically says "Fan character". And that character can be very much original and still be in MLP. Thus making it an MLP OC or that thing you called nonexistent. Also do you guys really have to point out the whole FC thing to everyone when they say "[insert franchise here] OC"? I mean it's not like it's the law to correct people on the categories of characters and all that.

If you do not correct people, people will never learn and bad habits will continue to spread. MLP is not an original story and thus... it is NOT an original character. "MLP OC" is quite literally an oxymoron for that very reason.

That's all I'm saying and I'm out of here. *sigh*

But it's not the law to correct people on characters. It's original, just in a fanbase. It's an original fan character.

OFC is a thing too. Or it used to be. Although, it's when the fan thing outweighs the original thing that I would call it an FC, but to each his own.
