Hello. Today, I am here to give 你 a guide on how to make Sonic
fan-characters.
Step 1- Come up with an animal for your character to be. This can be hard, but at least try to and you'll come up with something.
Step 2- Deside your characters' gender. It does not matter what gender it is, but it does matter if 你 want to draw 说 character since male characters and female characters have different features.
Step 3- Brainstorm some designs for your character. The only recomendation I have for this is; DO NOT COPY DESIGNS THAT OFFICIAL CHARACTERS HAVE. Sure, 你 can use Sonic-like spines but do not copy Sonics' look almost completely, then it will look like a copy of Sonic. Make sure, if your character has clothing, to make 说 clothing look original, which means do not copy any designs that official characters have. 你 can do so for the shoes and gloves, but nothing else.
Step 4- Make some powers for your character to have. Now here's the fun part; making powers. Here is a tip; DO NOT USE FIRE, WATER, LIGHTNING, 或者 草 AS AN ELEMENTAL POWER IF 你 ARE PLANNING ON USING ONE! If 你 do so than it will be unoriginal, considering how many FCs already have those powers. Make original powers, and be careful not to have unrealistic powers. No character can be faster than Sonic, stronger than Knuckles 或者 be a 狐狸 that can fly like Tails. That would be unoriginal as well as unrealistic. Try to invent powers of your own.
Step 5- Choose the side for your character to be on. Y'know, if 你 want your character to be evil, good 或者 neutral. Be sure that your characters' personality fits the side they are on, for example; a character who wants to destroy everything in its path being a good-guy 或者 a character who hates to fight being a
bad-guy would not fit. Try to make your character seem like they belong on the side 你 put them on.
Step 6- Invent a personality for your character. If 你 do not know what to have for a personality, brainstorm until 你 find something that 'fits' with your character.
Step 7- Make a backstory. 你 do not HAVE to do this step, but it is recommended. DO NOT MAKE IT TO SAD. If 你 have your character have a cliche past like 'all of his/her family was killed 由 so-and-so so he/she wants revenge' then that would be cliche as I 说 before as well as stale. Make it happy with some sad parts if 你 despretely want some angst in his/her past. If 你 must make it angsty, then do not make your fc moan about it 24/7.
Step 8- Naming the character. 你 can basically use almost any name 你 would like, as long as it is not taken 由 an official Sonic character, such as Amy.
