Your OC, your aesthetic. OC Maker & Creator is a polished avatar maker built for anyone who lives in anime, manga, alt-fashion, monster-girl, gothcore, or "weird girl" energy. You pick a style, layer hand-painted parts, mess with colors and backgrounds, and keep going until the face on screen actually feels like the character in your head. Two character styles to start from. Figure gives you a full pose with hands, horns and side hair — built for monster-girl, fantasy, DnD-leaning OCs. Portrait gives you a detailed bust with face paint, scars, jewelry, and layered makeup — built for the OCs whose face does the talking. Once you pick a style, the whole library opens up. Twenty-plus categories, from back hair to body paint to glasses to face paint, each with its own color palette where it makes sense. Twenty-one backgrounds, ranging from quiet school halls to galaxy gradients to pride flags. If you don't know where to start, hit Random. Hit it again. Every combination is brand new. Save as many OCs as you want into your private library. Rename them, duplicate them, build out whole casts for a story or a roleplay. Open any of them again later and keep tweaking. Nothing leaves your device. There's also an Inspiration tab — an infinite, lightly chaotic feed of randomly generated characters. Scroll until something hits, tap it, edit it, save it. It's the fastest way to find a starting point when your brain is blank. When an OC is finished, one tap exports a high-resolution PNG straight to your Photos library. From there it goes wherever you go — Discord, Pinterest, Instagram, Tumblr, group chats, your moodboard, your fanfic doc. Dark mode only. Portrait iPhone. No ads, no accounts, no sign-up. Your characters stay on your device. Built for moodboard people, OC roleplay accounts, manga and anime fans, Discord PFP crowds, and anyone who just wants a fast, quiet way to design a face that feels right.
