The charm of 'Switched at Birth' OC fanfiction also lies in the exploration of different identities. Just like the main theme of the show which deals with the identity issues of the switched - at - birth characters, an OC can have their own identity struggles. This could be related to their cultural background, personal beliefs, or social status, and how they navigate through the world of the show.
One popular trope is the 'fish - out - of - water' situation for the OC. Since the world of 'Switched at Birth' has its own unique setting and culture, an OC coming from a different background can have a lot of adjusting to do. This can create humorous and also heart - warming moments as they learn to fit in.

An interesting plot for a 'Switched at Birth' OC fanfic could involve an OC who is a journalist. They start investigating the story of the switched at birth incident for a school project or a local newspaper.

This OC could also have a personal connection to one of the families, like being a long - lost relative of one of the parents, which adds more complexity to the story.
Yes, it's a true - story - inspired series. In real life, there have been incidents where hospital mistakes led to babies being switched.

Well, you need to think about the character's motivation. In a 'Switched at Birth' setting, an OC might be motivated by a desire to find their own identity or to help the two families deal with the situation. Consider their emotional state too. Are they angry about the switch? Or are they more accepting? You can also base their character on real - life people you know or have observed. This can give them a sense of authenticity. For example, if you know someone who is always positive no matter what, you can incorporate some of those traits into your OC. Also, let their character develop over the course of the fanfic.
