Arcane OC Maker: Create Your Own Arcane Character
Turn a photo or a single line of description into a full-body original character painted in the Fortiche art style of Arcane. Pick a faction, add a hex crystal or brass-trimmed coat, and get a full-body character sheet that stands beside Vi, Caitlyn, or Silco — entirely yours.
A generic cel-shaded layer is not enough. The Fortiche pipeline does five things at once: painterly textures, hex-blue magic, dual-city fashion, full-body design language, and a sense of authorship. Arcane OC Maker is built around these five.
- Fortiche Art Style, Beyond a Filter: Fortiche's signature is a 2.5D hybrid pipeline. 2D hand-painted textures are projected onto simplified 3D geometry, and light and shadow are painted directly into the texture rather than calculated by a real-time engine. The result shows visible impasto brushwork (thick, tactile paint strokes), rim-lit edges around hair and metal, and slightly irregular lines for a hand-painted appearance. Arcane OC Maker carries that finish across the whole figure: face, fabric, metal, hair. Your character looks like a screenshot from the show, not a flat anime crop.
- Hex Crystals, Hexcore Glow, Hextech Runes: The hex motif is what tells the eye this is Runeterra and not just steampunk. Hextech reads as hard-edged geometry: diamond-cut electric-blue gems set in polished gold or brass, often inscribed with Inspiration Runes. Hexcore is the organic counterpart, pulsing in a blue-to-violet gradient with vine-like metal tendrils growing out of it. Arcane OC Maker can place either variant on your character: a floating hex shard in the palm, a pistol's energy chamber, a pendant on the coat lapel, a glow tucked under the collar. The bloom and rim lighting around these pieces is hand-placed in the show, and the generator paints it the same way.
- Piltover or Zaun: Two Cities, Two Wardrobes: Piltover and Zaun are designed as opposites, and an OC has to commit to one. Piltover follows Art Deco lines: symmetrical tailoring, polished metal, gold filigree, ivory and royal blue. The silhouettes are an Enforcer, a Hextech scholar, an aristocrat, an inventor. Zaun runs on chempunk: refurbished leather, salvaged metal, asymmetrical punk cuts, neon green and rust under a Shimmer haze. The silhouettes are a chem-baron, a tinkerer, a Firelight, a Shimmer-dealer. Pick a side and the generator pulls the right fabric, palette, props, and atmosphere through the entire piece.
- Full-Body Character Sheet for D&D and Avatars: A profile-picture filter ends at the shoulders. Arcane OC Maker gives you the full character sheet, head to boots, composed against a clean background. It uses the same shape language Fortiche gives the cast: Vi's V-shapes, Caitlyn's straight lines, Mel's geometric Art Deco, Silco's deliberate asymmetry. Tabletop-ready for D&D and TTRPG character sheets, fits Roll20 tokens, drops into fan-zine spreads, doubles as Discord server art, serves as VTuber reference, and prints to physical character cards.
- An Original Character, Not a Reskin: Many Arcane-themed generators stop at restyling you as an existing champion. Arcane OC Maker lets you create a truly original character. Feed it your own photo and the generator stylizes your features into a new resident of Piltover or Zaun. Feed it pure description and it builds the character from scratch. Either way the output belongs to you. Name them, write their backstory, give them a faction allegiance, drop them into your campaign or your fic.
From idea to character sheet in four steps
Upload or Describe
Drop a clear, front-facing photo, type a description, or combine both. A photo lets the generator carry your features through to the OC. A written brief gives it room to invent from scratch. The strongest results come from doing both: one photo, one faction line, one signature prop.
Define Faction and Class
Choose Piltover or Zaun, then pick a role. Enforcer, Hextech scholar, aristocrat, inventor for the upper city. Chem-baron, tinkerer, Firelight, street fighter for the undercity. Faction sets palette and silhouette. Class decides what they hold and what they wear over it.
Add Hextech Gear and Wardrobe
Spell out the visual hooks. A diamond-cut hex crystal in the hand or set into a weapon. Brass-and-gold filigree for Piltover or scrap-metal armor for Zaun. A long coat or leather jacket, boots, side bag, mechanical arm, respirator, tattoos. Style cues like "Fortiche style, painterly, thick brushstrokes, hex glow, cinematic lighting" lock the look in.
Generate and Download
Run the generation, tweak the prompt to push the silhouette or palette, and download the full-body character sheet on a clean background. It is ready for an avatar, a D&D character sheet, or a campaign zine.
Frequently asked questions
Is Arcane OC Maker free to use on pxz.ai?
Arcane OC Maker runs on the standard pxz.ai credit system. Sign in and start with the free credits available to every account, then top up if you want to iterate on prompts, generate variations, or work through a full party of OCs.
Can I upload my own photo, and what works best?
Yes. A clear, front-facing photo with even lighting and a single subject gives the generator the most to work with. The OC will keep recognizable traits like face shape, hair tone, and eye color while picking up the Fortiche painterly finish. Cluttered backgrounds, group shots, and harsh side-lighting tend to dilute the likeness. Crop tight to the face if you want the strongest carry-through.
How do I write prompts that feel like Arcane?
Anchor the prompt in three layers. First, faction: Piltover or Zaun. Second, class and silhouette: Enforcer, scholar, chem-baron, tinkerer. Third, a few signature props: hex crystal, brass filigree, scrap-metal armor, mechanical limb. Then add the style block "Fortiche style, painterly, thick brushstrokes, hexcore aesthetic, dramatic cinematic lighting" and a negative block that pushes off "anime, photorealistic, smooth 3D render, kawaii." That structure consistently lands the look.
Where can I use the OC, and who owns the rights to it?
Generated characters are yours for Discord and social avatars, TTRPG and D&D character sheets, fan-zine and doujinshi art, VTuber model reference, and personal portfolio pieces. The world of Arcane and League of Legends belongs to Riot Games, so the output is best treated as fan-made stylization. Personal and non-commercial fan creation is fine. Check Riot's fan-content policy before any commercial use.
Is the output a headshot or a full-body sheet?
A full-body character sheet, head to boots, on a clean background, with wardrobe, weapon, and signature props composed in. You can crop it down to a square avatar, drop it into a D&D character sheet at the original size, or scale it up for a poster or zine spread without re-running the generation.
