Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | A subtrope of Original Character. An OC Stand-In is a canon Flat Character that gets little screentime or few (if any) lines, and therefore can be molded into whoever the fans want. Often, they may not even have canonical names. Thus an OC Stand-In is like an OC, but the fact that these characters usually have at least some personality already means the author has some general direction to go in. Like all things in fanfiction, when handled badly the OC Stand-In can delve straight into Mary Sue territory. Compare with the Possession Sue. |
