Hello Dangan Ronpa fans! It is I... Some random girl on the internet who is obsessed with everything. Yeah that's it. Anway I will show you how to make a good Dangan Ronpa OC before I start my SYOC. Yep I'm doing one of those. Now why am I doing this? Many DR OC Makers make Mar Sues or Gary Stus, in fact there are blog's about DR Mary Sues or Gary Stus. So who want's to stop making OC's like Kokoro Komaeda and Hibiki Frolo? I think I saw one hand so let's go!
1. Looks
Your OC has to have a decent look. Rainbow hair is going out on a limb and 7+ colours is a big no. Your OC can have crazy colours of hair but not to crazy! There is a limit of how many drugs it can take.
Eyes can be any colour you wish - within reason. However, just one unless they suffer from Heterochromia. However, Heterochromia is pretty rare so don't use it willy nilly on all of your OC's just because. 3 or more different colours of eyes is a huge no. You shouldn't really do that.
Your OC's main outfit has to be fitting. Make sure it isn't to fanservicy or makes the character half naked. Their outfit must be acceptable to wear in the streets. Take a look at their outfit and say to yourself "Would I wear this in the streets or to school?" If the answer is no then you should think about changing it so it is appropriate. However swimwear is fine if it's for swimming and whatnot.
2. Name and SHSL
Names... Sometimes a problem. Would you find a girl called FantineAquane on the streets? No as that's not even a name. Make sure that their name fits where they are from - don't name a German girl Sakura. Exceptions can be if their parents are from another country. Use the internet to find name's if you need to - just type in the country's name and then "name list" or "common names list".
SHSL's... When I was creating an OC I struggled with their SHSL. Your OC's SHSL should fit in with their personality and such. On the internet there are list's that can tell you some SHSL's to give your OC. You can ask people what SHSL they would give your OC as well. For example, would you ever think Naegi Makoto could be the SHSL Assassian? Probably not as it doesn't go with what Naegi's like. When asking around though, make sure you ask alot of people as each person has a different opinion on what goes and what doesn't.
3. Seventeenth Student
When creating an OC - Do not make them a Seventeenth Student for either game. Your OC cannot be apart of either one as they both have only 16 people in them. Adding your OC in would shake up the canon. Also don't ship your OC with a canon character - they probably don't are about them. Another thing, don't make your OC related to a canon character. It won't work out as that will change their past and probably their character. So it won't work out.
