I was inducted into a secret society of assassins and raised all my life to kill people, it's all I know." she continued.

This is a cliche where an OC has a backstory full of personal pain, suffering, dark themes such as torture, murder, abuse or even further things such as scientific experimentation or being born into families of assassins or being raised as a mercenary.

So lets start with one of the most crucial aspects of character design. ![]() So yeah, with a disclaimer like that, you know i'm gonna be upsetting some apple carts with this one. Please understand there's no ill intentions here besides helping people improve their writing.Īlso, an additional note after this has been published, I kinda forgot that mentioning someone else's deviations lets them know you've been pinged, so sorry about that! Again, no ill will meant. Most of them are just fine or not particularly interesting but there's a huge collection of bad ones i've collected since being a part of RWBY, so i'll be calling on specific examples as well as using Paige again.ĭisclaimer: If your OC is one of the ones I feature as a bad example and you are upset about that, this is only a form of constructive criticism and is not personal against you or any of the creators. I try to collect good RWBY OCs in my favourites because there's few that really leap out.

I find these pretty fun to write so it's time for another one.
