Welcome back, friend! OCs are still accepted the usual way. Since the updates with RWBY a while back, every OC was removed from Accepted and had to be reapproved. If you had an OC already accepted before it was removed, there's a good chance all you have to do is put it back into Pending to be approved again.

The same rules are still there for OCs;

- No overloading the OC in terms of powers and skills

- Some kind of believable back story, but no canon interaction

- Limits to 2 weapons (1 normal, 1 sidearm) unless they're throwing knives or other small things

- No mind related semblances, aura affecting semblances, direct dust affecting semblances, summoning, or god-like power semblances (http://rwbyfanon.wikia.com/wiki/Semblances_and_your_OC_-_A_Guide)

You don't have to be super detailed (date of birth, handedness, hobbies), but it's a real courtesy to include them. Artwork isn't necessary, but it's always nice to add to get a better idea of how the character looks. No using existing character artwork from other mediums (anime, manga, games).

If I've left anything out or forgotten, feel free to let me know. You're totally free to join chat to casual talk or any questions. Welcome back to the RWBY Fanon, LT!
