Your OC has a backstory. Now give them a story.
You already know their name, their scar and the thing they will never forgive. Make your OC once as a Character, from words or your own photo, and the AI Director writes them a Story with Scenes you can watch, change and keep going.
One Character and one written Story a day are free, and the Story comes as a picture-only Slideshow. A narrated Slideshow is 40 Credits with a plan.
Free: make your Character and its Story as picture-only Slideshows. Real video comes with a plan.
How to give your OC a story
Describe your OC in a few words (look, outfit, one prop, what they want) and keep them as a Character. Then type a premise, a line of backstory or a what-if, and the AI Director writes a Story with your OC in every Scene. One Character and one written Story a day are free, as a picture-only Slideshow.

From backstory to story
A backstory is what happened before. A story is what happens next. Give the AI Director a premise with a choice in it (a rival appears, a door opens, a promise breaks) and it writes Scenes where your OC has to act. Push back in plain words until it sounds like them.
Keep your OC original
Your OC can be inspired by anything, but keep fandom names, canon characters and other people's worlds out of it. An original OC is yours to keep making Stories with.
Story prompts that work
Six premises with a decision in them.
The key
Your OC wakes with no memory and a key that opens every door in the city except their own.
The rival
The one person who beat your OC at everything moves in next door.
The debt
Your OC owes a favour to someone who has finally come to collect.
The letter
A letter arrives in your OC's handwriting, dated next week.
The ally
Your OC's sworn enemy shows up injured and asks for help.
The choice
Your OC can save the city or the one person they love, and has until sunrise.
Next: make them move

Questions, answered
Still curious? The guides go deeper.
Is there a free OC story generator?
Yes: one Character and one written Story a day are free, and the Story comes as a picture-only Slideshow with your OC drawn in every Scene.
Can it write my OC's backstory?
Give the Director your OC's backstory as part of the premise and it writes a Story that builds on it. It writes Scenes to watch, not a wiki page.
Can I use a character from an anime or game?
Keep it original. Canon characters and fandom names are not something we make.
Will my OC look the same in every Scene?
Yes. Your OC is a saved Character and every Scene starts from it.
Can my OC be a teenager?
No. Characters are always adults here.
