# AI OC Maker

> An AI OC maker turns a description of your original character into finished art, then keeps that character the same in every new image. On Kenerate AI you write the OC's look, outfit and style, generate a design you like, and upload it as a reference: Nano Banana 2.1 (up to 14 reference images) redraws the same character as a reference sheet or in a new scene. In our test, one anime sorceress became a front/side/back sheet with four expressions and a library scene, with her hair, eyes and outfit kept.

1. Write your OC — Name, role, look (hair, eyes, build), outfit colours, one or two signature items, and the art style. Sign in free for 25 starter credits.
2. Generate the design — Make a few full-body options on a plain background and keep the one that feels right.
3. Make a reference sheet — Upload the design to Nano Banana 2.1 and ask for front, side and back views plus expressions.
4. Put your OC in scenes — Keep the design as a reference and describe the new scene — the character stays the same.
5. Download — Regenerate any shot that drifts, then download without a watermark.

## In depth

### What goes into an OC prompt
A good OC prompt reads like a character bio boiled down to what the eye can see. Six to ten clear details are enough:
- Art style first: “anime cel-shaded”, “3D animated film”, “watercolour”.
- Role or archetype: sorceress, courier, knight, detective, pilot.
- Look: hair colour and length, eye colour, build, one distinctive feature.
- Outfit: two or three colours and materials, plus accessories.
- A signature item that tells the story: a glowing orb, a battered map, a sword.
- Plain background for the first design, so the outfit is easy to reuse.

### Design once, reuse everywhere
The hard part of an OC isn't the first picture, it's the tenth. Text alone drifts: hair changes shade, the outfit gains a pocket, the face shifts. A reference image fixes that, because the model copies the character instead of re-imagining it.
That's why the workflow on this page is design → reference sheet → scenes. The sheet gives you the side and back views you'll want later, and every new scene starts from the same reference.

### What we got
One anime sorceress, two Nano Banana 2.1 edits, one try each:
- Reference sheet: front, side and back views and four expressions (happy, determined, surprised, thinking), same hair, eyes, dress, cloak and boots. It added a small circlet and printed labels.
- Library scene: the same character at a candlelit desk with a spellbook and the glowing orb, outfit and face kept, with the same circlet.

## FAQ
Q: What is an OC maker?
A: An OC (original character) maker helps you design a character of your own — for a story, roleplay, comic, game or VTuber persona. Dress-up apps let you pick parts from a fixed set; an AI OC maker draws the character from your description in any style, then lets you reuse it as a reference to keep it consistent.

Q: How do I make an OC with AI?
A: Write the OC's look, outfit, personality and art style, generate a full-body design on a plain background, and keep the best one. Then upload it as a reference on Nano Banana 2.1 and ask for a reference sheet or a new scene. Our anime sorceress stayed recognisable in both.

Q: How do I keep my OC consistent across images?
A: Always attach the design as a reference, repeat the signature details in the prompt (hair, eye colour, outfit colours, accessories), and say “keep her design identical”. Nano Banana 2.1 takes up to 14 references, so you can add the reference sheet and earlier scenes as well. Check small accessories — in our test a circlet appeared that the original didn't have.

Q: Can it make a character reference sheet?
A: Yes. Ask for front, side and back views plus a row of expressions on a plain background. Our one-try sheet showed three full-body views and four expressions in the same anime style. For an exact four-angle turnaround of one image, the Character Turnaround tool walks the camera around your character in a single run.

Q: Can I make an anime OC, like a Demon Slayer-style OC?
A: You can make an anime-style OC in a look inspired by a genre — name the art style, era and outfit details in your own words, for example “anime cel-shaded swordsman in a patterned haori”. Design your own character rather than copying an existing one; trademarked characters belong to their owners.

Q: Can I make a realistic OC instead of anime?
A: Yes — change the style line. The same sorceress on this page appears as anime, 3D, watercolour and oil painting with only the style changed. Decide the style early, because it changes proportions, line and colour, then keep that style word in every prompt.

Q: Is the OC maker free?
A: Free to start: a new Kenerate account gets 25 starter credits on sign-up, with no subscription needed. After that, credits come from one-time packs. Downloads carry no watermark.

Q: Can AI write my OC's backstory too?
A: This page is about the art. Write the backstory yourself or with any chat assistant, then pull the visual details from it — role, home, signature item — into the image prompt so the art matches the story.
