OC has several meanings depending on context. In military and organizational settings it stands for Officer Commanding — the person in charge of a unit or operation. In fandom and creative communities, OC means Original Character — a character someone created themselves rather than borrowed from an existing franchise. The fandom usage is especially common in fanfiction and online roleplay communities, where writers share and develop their own characters alongside canon ones.
