User blog:RoseCupid/OC Names, Personalities, and Critique

Hey everyone! The Magic Queen here, and I made this blog post to share tips on how to create a well-developed OC!

First, I have a list of a few great OCs that are very well-developed for you to check out so you sorta get an idea what I mean by well-developed. Another tip to get a well-developed OC is to make them stand out among others. In other words, make them original. Believe me, there are so many coldhearted, isolated daughters of the Snow Queen on this Wiki. No offense intended to users who have made an OC like that.
 * Minuette Dancer (made by Vin)
 * Rouena Swayne (made by AmaZe)
 * Aprileene Chills (made by AmaZe)

There are also quite an amount of children of the Ugly Duckling that think they are ugly and are sad about it. Again, no offense.

The rest of this page will be divided into a few sections.

Naming your OC
Well, first of all, if you need help naming your OC, you can always ask me! I will try and give you answers as quick as I can, but please do not take offense if it takes a while for me to read your answer.

So when you name your OC, you want to give them a name that makes sense, puns and all! For example, Coraline Finn, one of several daughters of the Little Mermaid on this Wiki (and other sites too). Coraline is supposedly a pun on the name "Caroline."

But also, if you give your OC an original name (i.e. Aprileene Chills, formerly Aprileene Queen, the daughter of the Snow Queen created by AmaZe), that would be cool as well! When I first saw Aprileene's name, I kept thinking she was the daughter of a flower fairy from Thumbelina! But when I read her page, I found out Aprileene was the daughter of the Snow Queen. I'll bet I wasn't the only one who thought Aprileene had a different destiny than what she truly has when I first read her name.

OC Personalities
So if you know what OC stands for, you'll know it means "Original Character." That's what we try to do on this Wiki, is encourage people to use their creative talents and create a character, but make it original as well. So when you give your OC a personality, it doesn't have to be very long, but enough to describe how they act among others and who they are on the inside. If you must, you can also put their innermost feelings and what they think of others.

Like I said earlier, there are so many cold Snow Queen OCs on this Wiki, and actually quite a few of them are Royals, too. If you want to make your Snow Queen OC stand out, I'd suggest a bright, cheery and openhearted character. But now, some users on this Wiki are discouraging any new Snow Queen OCs.

Also, when giving your OC a personality, avoid making them a Mary Sue. If you don't know what that means, it means a perfect, flawless character. We all know that  NOTHING  in the world is perfect, and even though Ever After High is a fantasy series, please don't make your character perfect. Give them some flaws, and make them stand out!

My Critique
So, if you have any OCs you want me to give my honest opinion about, comment on this page and I will write them on the list on my driver page. On my driver page there is also a list of OCs that I have given my opinion on already.

Please note that when I mean honest opinion, I mean honest opinion. What I say about your OC doesn't need to be changed, I'm just here to give you suggestions with friendly intent. I try to be as nice as possible, but if whatever I say offends you in any way, please accept my sincerest apologies. But I'm not here to be mean, I'm here to help!

So if you have anything you want to talk me about, ask me any question related to the topics on this page in the comments!

Have a wonderlandiful day! :D
