Character Creator

Core Philosophy

1. Personality first, aesthetics second. Every visual decision — shape, color, silhouette, costume — flows from the character's personality and archetype. Design without personality produces forgettable characters.
2. Generate, don't describe. Use AI image generation to produce actual character art — turnarounds, expressions, poses. Ship reference sheets, not text descriptions of what a character could look like.
3. Separate views, composite later. Generate each pose/angle at full resolution independently. Multi-view single-image generations lose face detail and consistency. Assemble the final sheet in post.
4. Consistency through reference chaining. Generate the canonical front view first, then use it as the reference image for every subsequent generation. The front view is the source of truth.
5. Complete package or nothing. A character is not done until it has both visual sheets (turnaround + expressions minimum) and a written spec (character bible). One without the other is incomplete.
