Two ways to generate an OC: roll the randomizer for a surprise, or type your idea. Either way, you get a reusable character.
No idea yet? Hit random and the OC generator rolls a complete original character — species, look, personality, and vibe — in one click. Re-roll until one clicks.
Have a seed in mind? Type it — “a grumpy fox knight with a soft heart” — and the generator builds the character around your text prompt.
Love your OC? Lock the design and reuse the exact same character — same face, same outfit — across stories, comics, and reference art.
However you like to create an OC, the generator has a mode for it.
Spin for a surprise. Great when you want a fresh original character fast and let chance do the designing.
Describe your character in a sentence and the generator turns your words into a fully designed OC.
Anime, cartoon, cinematic, storybook — generate your OC in the look you want, on-model every time.
Not quite it? Re-generate as many times as you like until the character feels exactly right.
Pick the art style and your generated character stays on-model in it, every time.

ExploreAn OC generator is the fastest way to get a brand-new original character. Not sure what you want yet? Use the random OC generator — spin it like an OC wheel and it rolls a complete character in one click: species, hairstyle, outfit, and personality all at once. Re-roll until one feels right. Already have a seed? Switch to text mode, type something like “a grumpy fox knight with a soft heart,” and the generator builds the OC around your words and illustrates it in the style you pick.
What sets C2Story apart is that your generated OC is reusable. Instead of a one-off picture, you can lock the design into your character library and drop the exact same character — same face, hair, and outfit — into stories, comics, and reference sheets. Generate a whole cast and keep them all on-model.
Want more control? If you'd rather deliberately design every detail of your own vision, use the original character generator. Already have an OC and want to bring it to life in art and stories? Use the OC creator. And once your character exists, put it to work in the OC story generator. Spin, describe, or design — then start creating for free.
