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
Additional Collaborative Inserts
A yearbook style insert in the front for pre-time skip designs and in the back for post-time skip designs.

Ask Us Anything! CuriousCat
Can I apply if I'm a minor? No, we ask that all contributors be over the age of 18.
Are ships allowed? Yes, absolutely! We just ask that there be no explicit NSFW. Everything must stay SFW, with artistic nudity permissible depending on situation.
Can I write if I can't draw? Yes! We're hoping to get at least 5-10 writers involved. The word cap will be maxed at 1500-2000 words per piece.
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!
Will there be merch? There will be merch based around our yearbook theme!
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!
