Category:Type: AC

Adapted characters are something of a half-step between OC and FC. Generally, they are counted as OCs in terms of all game rules and policies. However, an AC is a character who was not created by the player but has been written in a generally original way. This in most cases refers to characters from sources that predate contemporary popular culture, whether they be mythological figures, characters from classical literature, or characters who have otherwise entered the public domain. (For example, this might allow a player to adapt their own version of Herakles rather than going with the DC or Marvel comics character, Hercules.)
