Good morning, evening or night everyone

An hour ago I have been told that my lmk oc "Kito" is scarily op

And ya know I wouldn't blame them but lucky for everyone, The blue simian has very good drawbacks to counter said OP style

I'm laughing at the idea of posting a TikTok of Kito(during dissociation disorder) vs the many lmk/Jttw characters and then it's just a war in the comments of hardcore fans

I finally made my own One Piece character after years (I mean YEARS) of being a closed fan OMG

I genuinely liked how she ended up vs the original concept of it in total. There's really little-to-no difference either way. Not to mention I love the scheme I made too- I just loved the result all together.

Probably planning on making an entire crew to be honest ( ;-;) I just need to finish my requests in my inbox [if you've requested something that has yet to be answered its because there's so many and I'm doing them in order, bear with me and be patient please].

OP but not a Gary/Mary Sue

Okay so this is more about my personal opinions about writing then anything else, but as far as I see it there are four (4) primary ways to make a character OP without turning them into a Gary/Mary Sue or relying on Plot Armor.

1) Raw Power: The OG OP aspect, raw power is a tried and true method to make a character overpowered as hell and is easy to do. All it is is taking the basic abilities already present in a setting and dialing it up to 11. Examples are Superman, Saitama, Aaang, and Hulk. They don’t have any unique powers per-say, but they have the ‘standard’ powers at a much higher level then practically anyone else in the setting. To avoid Gary/Mary Sue and Plot Armor territory it is common to have those with Raw Power to have a distinct weakness or to be kinda dumb compared to others in the setting, otherwise its important to show growth or a reason behind them having this Raw Power. For examples Superman has Kryptonite, Saitama and Hulk are known as ‘simple’, and Aang has three seasons of intense training and loses several fights before becoming the True Powerhouse he ended up as.

2) Hacks Abilities: This is one of the ones that often straddles the line between normal OP and Gary/Mary Sue or Plot Armor territories. Its having a power or ability that is either very rare or unique to them that gives them advantages over others. Examples are Constantine always being in ‘The Right Place At The Right Time’ and using niche rituals or artifacts to deal with demons, and the Zenkai Boost ability from Dragon Ball Z. To avoid Gary/Mary Sue and Plot Armor territory its important to remember that these types of characters often lack Raw Power and can often find themselves in situations were their Hacks are meaningless such as the recent Constantine showcase short film The House of Mystery where the demons keep killing him or the start of every DBZ arc where Goku gets wrecked by someone more powerful than him and has to heal and come back to fight in round 2.

3) Skills: This I think is the hardest to use without turning the character into a Gary/Mary Sue or giving them Plot Armor. Skill based OP is just being more technically and practically skilled than those around them allowing them to exploit openings in their opponents styles or controlling the flow of the fight so that the physical advantages of their opponents are mitigated. Examples include Master Roshi, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Task Master, and the theory of Waterbenders in Avatar The Last Airbender. To avoid Gary/Mary Sue or Plot Armor territory its important to remember that these people don’t have the Raw Power or Hacks of the other characters, leaving them vulnerable to direct overwhelming force and fights that don’t involve their primary skillset. For example Roshi loosing to Frost, Obi-Wan losing to Dooku, Katara loosing to Sun Boosted Zuko at the North Pole, and putting Task Master up against people like Iron Man or Punisher who have tech and fighting styles that work around his copying ability.

4) Tech: This one was only pointed out to me recently and isn’t something I originally considered as an OP category so bare with me if it doesn’t come off as well as the previous ones. Tech is an OP variant that has some overlap with other forms of OPness such as Resources and Prep Time. Being OP thanks to tech means whatever situation you find yourself in, you have unique tools that give you an edge, pretty much saying your OPness comes from your diversity of abilities. Examples include Batman and Ironman, both of whom often lack the Raw Power of others and while Batman has Skill he is often put in situations where that Skill’s usefulness  is minimized. To avoid Gary/Mary Sue and Plot Armor territories it is often customary to turn their tech against them, make it inaccessible, or put them up against someone who has a hard counter to their usual loadout so they have to remake their entire arsenal. This includes hacking Ironman’s armor to avoid a direct fight, surprising Batman when he isn’t expecting a fight, and having foes who adapt to their situations.

A common point you may have noticed in all of these is that there is always a way to work AROUND a character’s OPness if they are not a Gary/Mary Sue and don’t have Plot Armor. This is because nothing should be absolute and if someone is known to be a fighter it would only make sense for people who plan to go against them to try and find some way to beat them. There’s a reason half of Superman’s enemies use Kryptonite or Red Sun radiation as often as they can get away with it, there’s a reason Iroh said attacking the Northern Water Tribe during a full moon was a bad idea, and their’s a reason the entire Justice League is always suspicious of Batman.

But, that’s just my opinion on the concept of the OP character and how to avoid making them Gary/Mary Sues or giving them all the Plot Armor. I’m sure there are things I missed and I’m sure there are people who view the concepts differently than I do so by all means please continue this discussion and lets see if we all can get to the heart about what makes a GOOD OP character.

Great Characters: Trick (Lost Girl)

The show may be somewhat under the radar, but the character of Fitzpatrick McCorrigan (better known as "Trick") exists as one of the best examples of an "Overpowered Character" in any media.

Quick background, Lost Girl resides in one of those "The Supernatural & Mythological Exist, But Hidden From Humans" kind of universes. The world of the Fae has Succubi, Shifters, Valkyries, Djinn, Garuda, Redcaps, Selkies, etc, etc. Magic is real, curses suck, and puberty might turn you into a feral monster.

Trick is an original Fae known as a "Blood Sage", and his powers are, to put it lightly, basically Godlike. Anything Trick writes in his own blood becomes reality. He can literally rewrite the world as he pleases. The only limits to these powers are basically how much he can write before he passes out from blood loss. Trick wrote the very laws that govern the Fae, ending the war between factions that had waged for centuries. So, why does one of the most powerful Fae in existence run a tavern and never use his powers?

From the very first time we meet Trick (episode 1), there are hints that he is respected by many of the leaders among the Fae, but we see absolutely no hint of any powers. Instead we are given a warm & friendly barkeep operating the Dal Riata, a pub that exists as a safe & neutral territory for both factions of the Fae, the Light and the Dark. Patrons from all walks of life can come by for a drink, a game of pool, and even Bingo on some nights. Only a select few have any clue that the man pouring the drinks on La Shoshain is the very same King they are celebrating, and that's the way Trick prefers it.

Mythologically, there are multiple reasons an immortal demigod might live a powerless life among mortals. They could be testing followers who think no one is watching. They could be stripped of their powers and forced to survive without them. They could be reincarnated into a mortal being. They could just be bored and doing it for sh*ts & giggles.

Trick isn't testing anyone. His powers are as strong as they were when he was Monarch of the Fae. The only changes made to his appearance are that he no longer wears a crown, he has retained his immortality, and does nothing to hide his age. Above all, none of this is a joke to him.

The reveal & reason for Trick's chosen lifestyle is brilliant in its simplicity.

During the first season finale, Trick's renegade daughter Aoife tries to murder Bo, her daughter and Trick's granddaughter. Kenzi, Bo's best friend (a human among the Fae), comes to Trick and demands he help her. She knows who Trick is, she knows he can change Bo's fate with ease. Trick refuses. When Kenzi demands to know why, Trick shows her.

He begins pulling books off a shelf; two, three at a time, and putting them in front of Kenzi. Over a dozen volumes in all. All of them filled with Trick's blood. Filled with his changes, his corrections, his attempts to bring peace to the Fae. The end result is the world as it exists, right now. Trick is living in the world he crafted, line by line, word by word, change by change. We are faced with the literal weight of the countless attempts Trick has made over hundreds, maybe even thousands of years, to tackle the complexities of life. Trick can rewrite a person to end a quarrel, but that animosity will be directed to someone else. He can stop a disaster, but it causes a different disaster. He can erase someone from existence, but their lingering absence will still ripple in the lives of those they left behind. No matter how carefully, or thoroughly, or specifically Trick writes, no matter how many different ways he might write it or rewrite it, he always ends up causing the very thing he has sought to prevent; conflict. Trick's immortal life and godlike powers have only shown him how helpless he truly is.

The idea behind Trick's current status is an effort to solve problems & disputes without magic. By putting in the work, taking the time, and committing himself to helping those who need it; the right way. Wayward souls with nowhere else to go, confused individuals just learning about their Fae ancestry, or just any Fae looking for a safe place to eat, drink, and/or be merry for a night. When you need someone, Trick is there with shelter, a pint, and a willingness to listen. Its truly amazing how much difference that can make in a person's life.

It's somewhat reminiscent of The Stonecutter. Quick version for anyone unfamiliar with the story:

A lowly stonecutter works all day, wishing he were a rich lord. Suddenly, his wish is granted, and he finds himself so. He revels in the joys of being a Lord, until the day comes when he sees a powerful king. He wishes to be a king, so as to bow to no one. Suddenly, his wish is granted, and he finds himself king of a great nation. One day, while sitting on his throne, he sees the hot sun overhead, forcing him to seek cover & shade. Wishing to be the sun, he suddenly finds himself to be so. Taking joy in bearing down his heat on all below him, he is angered to have his rays blocked by a cloud. He wishes to be a cloud, so as to blot out even the powerful sun. Suddenly, his wish is granted. He now holds power over even the sun, and can pour down rain to destroy all beneath him, until the day comes that a strong wind blows him away. Wishing to be such a breeze, he suddenly finds that wish has come true. He becomes a powerful wind to blow away anything in his path, until he comes to a massive stone he cannot budge. He wishes to be such a stone, and his wish is granted. He stands as an immovable object, the unyielding bane of all the elements. Until one day, he looks down, and sees himself being chipped away by a lowly stonecutter.

Don't knock a humble life. Trick remains one of my favorite characters in large part due to Rick Howland's performance, which is unfailingly kind, lovable, and wise. There are also utterly hilarious moments such as Trick passing out drunk in a bathtub with a tie around his head, making bar jokes, or being asked painfully awkward questions about aspects of sexual intercourse by his succubus granddaughter. He always does his best, and we treasure him for it, but the fear in the eyes of this former God being asked some of these questions is just priceless.
