These wheels decide who a character is, not how they look. Spin a gender, a name, an age and a birthday for the top of the sheet. Spin a personality trait, an emotion, a job and a star sign for the person underneath. Spin a species, an element, a power, a weapon or a creature when the story is fantasy or science fiction. The OC character wheel runs eight short lists on one page, species to flaw, and its Copy button hands back the eight results as plain text. The birthday and age wheels take two spins each: a month and then a day that month has, an age band and then one exact age. The challenge wheel adds a design constraint for a drawing swap. Artists use one spin as a drawing prompt, writers use three to break the habit of making the same hero, and game masters fill a tavern with strangers. Every list is printed in full under its wheel, and every entry on the wheel in front of you has the same chance. Hair, eyes and outfit have their own set of wheels.
