"OC" typically refers to "original character," a term used in fan fiction and creative communities to describe a character that is created by an individual rather than being part of an existing work. These characters can be designed for various media, including stories, comics, and games, and often reflect the creator's personal interests and ideas. In many cases, OCs are developed with unique backstories, personalities, and abilities, allowing creators to explore new narratives. They can interact with characters from existing franchises, such as Marvel or Harry Potter, or exist in entirely original settings, showcasing the creator's imagination and storytelling skills.
