Going forward I think if I ever make another character I'll probably just run their appearance through either of you first lmao, save a bit of headache for all parties involved.

@Alfhedil

Absolutely! We're both incredibly huge Midjoruney sluts, so we'll happily create character images for you, from scratch if needed, or anyone here for that matter.

@Ebil Bunny
If I may humbly suggest something, letting @Aeolian answer the other Aeonheart-related details, whenever Manny reincarnates into a human form, what if it is a look-alike or at least similar in appearance to her original? I'll even generate new images for you whenever this happens. Because, there is a certain element to characterization and familiarity that is (sometimes, unfortunately) rooted in visual representation. This would also make it a lot easier for people to recognize Manny in a new form if the physical appearance (facial features) is somewhat reminiscent of the original.

This is not a must, of course! It's just a suggestion to help with character cohesion. Take it in, think about it, and that's it :)

Hello All,

Today is the day to go over the character sheets that need some relatively minor changes before we can approve them. Aside from @Alfhedil, whom we've already discussed with in private, please look at the required adjustments for your character and make the necessary changes to your character sheet. Please resend your revised character sheet to @Aeolian in PM or repost it in the OOC thread by EOD Sunday Jul 2, EST.

@Alfhedil Go ahead and move your character sheet over to the character tab. Once your character art is done, you can add it retroactively; that's when we'll make the character blurb for Corrina too. Aesthetically, it doesn't work without the character art. lol Thanks!

Taegan “Tae” Granlock

1. The reputation section should be 1 to 2 well-written paragraphs, so please expand on this.

2. Expand the goals section to a few more sentences. Gives us more insight into what Tae wants to accomplish, whether that be during his time at Harold's Academy or after graduation, and why?

3. Expand the "Mystic Code" section to at least a paragraph. Give us more details about what his light manipulation can do.

@SunStar

Ezekiel Seganal

1. Your character art isn't working. If you need help finding suitable art, let @Aeolian or @Mirandae know.

2. Please resubmit your character sheet with the proper formatting, as seen in the original character sheet template. In our rules, we're pretty upfront about maintaining aesthetics. It's okay to add creative elements to your sheet like some other players did, but stripping most of the original aesthetic elements from the sheet without adding creative details is not permissible for us.

3. Please expand the Appearance section to a full paragraph.

4. Remove the "At least four...must take Sustain Flight" text from the Classes section.

5. As discussed with @Aeolian in PM, please make the necessary changes to your character's gift, as Vitesse Nullification is not permissible.

6. You will need to change part of your history to reflect the changes made to your gift.

@BlackRoseSiren

Aurora Celeste

1. Your current art for your character doesn't match the aesthetic of this RP. Please choose an art style similar to what the other characters have, which you can find under the Character tab. If you need help with suitable art, reach out to @Aeolian or @Mirandae

2. Please include a paragraph about your character under their image. This "Appearance" section is stated in the character sheet template.

3. Please resubmit your character sheet with the proper formatting, as seen in the original character sheet template. In our rules, we're pretty upfront about maintaining aesthetics. It's okay to add creative elements to your sheet like some other players did, but stripping all the original aesthetic elements from the sheet and leaving it bare is not permissible for us.

4. Please change the classification of her gift to Astra. Molecular acceleration is not an elemental gift.

Lucius Kree

1. Lucius is approved if you remove the precognition gift. We feel as though the precognition is tacked onto a powerset, especially since he already has two gift, telepathy and mediumship. Precognition is a powerful gift by itself, and on it's own, that might have been acceptable, but in addition to two other gifts, it feels displaced and can cause some issues with the creative narrative process. Let's just have him stick with the telepathy and medium.

Beatrix Gyre

1. Please resubmit your character sheet with the proper formatting, as seen in the original character sheet template. In our rules, we're pretty upfront about maintaining aesthetics. It's okay to add creative elements to your sheet like some other players did, but stripping all the original aesthetic elements from the sheet and leaving it bare is not permissible for us.

2. Your appearance section under the character photo is only one sentence. We would like you to put in a little more effort here and expand it to at least one paragraph (4-5 sentences).

3. Please expand your goals section to several sentences. Again, lets put a little more effort here and let us know what motivates your character. Why does she want to be known far and wide?

@Ebil Bunny

Manny Ryi

1. After some delegation, we ask that you remove the teleportation aspect of her gift. Not dying (reincarnation) is pretty powerful by itself, plus you can shapeshift into different animals; that seems pretty sufficient for a Mystic gift. The teleportation element seemed more like a tacked-on gimmick that doesn't really have anything to do with reincarnation. Plus, teleportation would be an Astra gift, not Somatic.

2. Please clarify what you mean by "if her aeonheart is triggered with". We didn't quite understand with this meant. What are some examples of this that you thought of?

3. Is this character unrecognizable to other people every time she reincarnates? Please clarify that.

4. So we assume that the image in her character profile pic is her "base form". Please clarify whether she does, or rather, can she ever go back to her base form. This kind of plays into the 3rd bullet above, but informs us on whether the other players can ever recognize her whenever she reincarnates into a new form, whether human or animal.

Apparently, Midjourney decided that Tessa has deals with 3 brands so far: SIAOE, BLOANI DUNELE, and SMNNAA.

SIAOE

Pretty sure this one is supposed to be a fragrance because of the pink mist in the background and bottle around her neck. This brand name wasn't too bad, especially if it dropped the first B and it became LOANI DUNELE.

BLOANI DUNELE

This looks very k-pop. Any ideas what all these letters stand for?

SMNNAA

That being said, surprisingly few of the accepted characters have Theater and Art except Fasha and Emme. Tessa will certainly be vocal about this, just you wait and see.

@Shovel
Yup, as @Force and Fury said, those images should be okay. They vary a lot in style, but the first one is the definition of 'high-quality digital art' if you want a reference.

@Ebil Bunny I don't think you can change prompts in a variation, so it's difficult to change an element (such as the color of a shirt) in a spread that has already been generated. I can generate the spread again and change the prompts, but then the pose and everything is going to be different. The original image is also a bit difficult when it comes to changing colors. Anyway, I made some variations of the ones you mentioned, and then I generated new ones based on the changes you requested.

variations+new spreads

@Ti There is some arm/hand AI action going on in the variations.

upscales+variations

@Crimson Flame We can always just ignore the elf ears in-character, or maybe it was something they put on just for the photo :)

@Ebil Bunny
Sure! I'll get back to it in the morning, though.

@Ti
Yup, there's always some element that you wish was in one image that is in another. I can generate more variations or make new spreads tomorrow, if you're itching for that perfect image.
