What Defines an OC?
A FE3HOC is an original character based in the Three Houses setting. They can be part of existing houses or fan-made ones. OCs can be related to or established with existing canon characters.

  • OCs can exist in canon and/or across multiple canons.

  • Our focus are the OCs. Canon characters can be present and interacting, but they are not the focal point.

  • OC x Canon ships are permitted

  • How many artists will be involved? Ideally 20-30 artists and 5-10 writers, but that really depends on how much traction the zine gets!

  • Is this a charity zine? Yes! The charity will be voted on by contributors.

  • I'm a writer, how am I going to provide artwork for the yearbook inserts? Don't worry! We will ask artist contributors to volunteer to draw your OC. Or we will assign a mod to do it!
