OC tag descriptions are now open to anyone, provided they follow the requirements below. It's important to know, before making a request, that OC tags are not owned by anyone. They are not verified like artist tags are. They are just for what we hope is helpful information. If two OCs have the same name, they can share the same tag, like OC:Jasmine.

→ 1. List the Character's name. Use a relative link. If you don't know how, just copy and paste the text below and replace anon or cloudy canvas with the name you're requesting a description for:

Typing "oc:anon":/tags/oc-colon-anon gives you oc:anon
If the character has a space in their name, replace it with a plus sign: "oc:cloudy canvas":/tags/oc-colon-cloudy+canvas becomes oc:cloudy canvas

This link must be entirely in lowercase; the link won't work otherwise.

→ 2. List the creator's Manebooru account, if they have one. The easiest way to find this is just to click their artist tag and see if there's an associated user. You can link the account in the post the same way as you do the OC name in step 1:

Typing "Kaifloof":/profiles/Kaifloof creates a link to the account: Kaifloof. Note that the account names are case-sensitive!

If they don't have an account (or it's not public), include a link to the creator's primary website, such as a DeviantArt, Tumblr, Furaffinity, Patreon, or Pixiv acccount. If you know of a website where you can find out more about the OC (such as a Tumblr "Ask" page) list that as well. If any of these outside links are NSFW, please mention that they are.

If the creator is truly unknown, or a collaboration, state that. Some OCs originated on 4chan's /mlp/ board and are collaborations, and we list them as such.

→ 3. List the character's species and (primary) sex. Use whatever binary or nonbinary terms you wish. If they often appear as a R63 version, or if they're usually in human or anthro form, feel free to mention it.

→ 4. Description: Write one or two lines describing their personality, hobbies, job, physical traits, sexual orientation, or other characteristics that are noteworthy. This must be safe-rated (even if a majority of the pictures of the character are not), so be creative. If they are involved somehow (employed by, related to, lover of, neighbors of, etc.) with another character (canon or OC), mention it. Please link any other related OC in the same manner as the link in step 1.

→ 5. Image Link a safe-rated image of the character that is posted on Manebooru. Link using the >>123456s format. Images where they are solo and in pony form (for anthros) are greatly preferred.

Any requests going forward that don't meet these criteria will be rejected, but we'll try to state why so that you can fix it.

If you need an example on how it should look, here's one of my own!

1. oc:time vortex (kaifloof)
2. Kaifloof
3. Female, Alicorn.
4. Known for her skill in time magic as well as her ability to regenerate and shape-shift as a result of her time magic skill, Time Vortex is a friendly, outgoing and "motherly" mare. Despite being skilled in time magic, she rarely uses it due to fear of losing her memories and harming her friends and family. She once had around ~7 kids in her adoptive family but due to corrupted timelines and other wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff, her only surviving child now hunts her down, blaming her for the pain that has fallen the family. After what happened in the "fallout equestria" timeline, Time took her adopted sister Ocean Shore and herself to another timeline and universe where nopony knew them. Nowadays she can be found in her universe's Ponyville Clock Tower.

Here's another example, my ponysona!

1. oc:rose scribbles
2. KaifloofTwitter
3. Pegasus/Female
4. Rose Scribbles, often known as Rosey, paints with her wings during her day job and as a result, her wings are stained from years of painting. Often has her hair in a ponytail for her work, but as a result has gotten into a habit of always wearing a ponytail. At night she writes a wide variety of stories about the worlds she visits in her dreams. She treasures her plushie of Princess Luna.
