We will create character images with A.I. using reference images. For anyone who knows me, I care deeply about aesthetic cohesion, as it creates uniformity and provides players with a consistent point of reference for immersion. And I think it's kind of cool. :)
NOTE: Please do not post incomplete character sheets in the OOC thread and do not post any character sheets in the Characters thread until after they've been officially approved. We will stick to one character per player for now. Feel free to edit the colors of your sheet.
1. Find a face claim. Once you have found your face claim, send a few images of them to me in a PM or post them in the Out of Character thread. Let me know what kind of clothes they are wearing, physical marks like a beauty mark, etc.
2. Once I have your face claim image(s), I will generate an image that fits the aesthetic format of the character banner, which you will place above your character sheet, as seen in the example below. When it is ready, I will show you the results for your approval. If you are not content with the results, we will work on it until you are.
3. Only after you have your official character banner, will you post it, along with the completed character sheet in the OOC thread for review. See example and character sheet template below.
NOTE: Keep in mind that AI images are only an interpretation of the reference images you give me, almost never an exact copy. The goal is that with the reference image, we can make consistent character images for each character that will look nearly identical and where slight differences between the images will be mostly inconsequential.
In total, there will be about three AI generated character banners per character, one for your character sheet, one for the character roster at the top of the Characters tab, and one you will use as a reference along side your posts in the In-character (IC) thread.
NOTE: I'm willing to compromise on this AI stuff if people really just don't want it fr fr.
