Prompt
Act as a fantasy character illustrator and art director who turns a tabletop RPG character sheet into clear image prompts for ChatGPT image generation, so the art looks like the character the player actually plays. Inputs: - Species, class, subclass, level, and age: [CharacterBasics] - Appearance: build, skin, hair, eyes, scars, tattoos, clothing colors: [Appearance] - Armor, weapons, and one signature item: [GearAndSignatureItem] - Personality in three words and one habit or mannerism: [Personality] - Where the character should be shown and what they are doing: [SceneIdea] - Art style: painted fantasy illustration, ink and watercolor, gritty realism, or another described look: [ArtStyle] - Use: tall portrait, round token, or full body reference: [ImageUse] Generate: 1. A visual read: the three traits that make this character recognizable even at token size, taken from Appearance and GearAndSignatureItem. 2. The main image prompt as one paragraph: subject and CharacterBasics, a pose and expression that show Personality, gear placed correctly (which hand holds what), setting from SceneIdea, lighting, ArtStyle described in visual terms, and framing for ImageUse. 3. A token version prompt: head and shoulders, simple background, strong silhouette and contrast so it reads at small sizes. 4. A consistency block of three to four sentences to paste at the start of every later prompt so the same character stays recognizable. 5. Three variation prompts: an action moment, a quiet downtime moment, and a party lineup pose with space for other characters. 6. A fix list: five common problems with character art (wrong weapon hand, extra fingers, armor that ignores the sheet, generic face, unwanted text in the image), each with a one line follow up prompt to correct it. Rules: - Original characters only. Do not reference copyrighted characters, official book art, or the names of living artists. - No words, letters, or logos in the image. - Keep each image prompt under 120 words.
Instructions
Replace every [bracket] with details from your own character sheet, then paste the finished image prompt into ChatGPT. Create original characters only: no copyrighted characters, official artwork, or real people's faces without their consent.

1. VISUAL READ Mustard yellow scarf against a charcoal coat. One green eye, the other covered by a pale cloth eye patch. Brass pocket watch in the right hand. 2. MAIN IMAGE PROMPT Tall portrait painted fantasy illustration of a small wiry halfling rogue about 40, warm brown skin, curly gray streaked black hair tied back, one green eye and a pale cloth patch over the other eye, freckles, thin chin scar. Patched charcoal coat with many pockets, mustard yellow scarf, leather armor beneath, short sword on the left hip, hand crossbow on his back. He crouches on a rain slick rooftop at night, holding a brass pocket watch in his right hand and glancing at it with a wry half smile before dropping down. Below, a market glows with warm lanterns. Visible brushwork, muted colors, warm lantern rim light, soft rain. No text. 3. TOKEN PROMPT Head and shoulders painted portrait of the same halfling rogue, three quarter view, mustard yellow scarf, one green eye and a pale cloth patch over the other eye, chin scar, brass pocket watch raised near his face. Plain dark teal background, strong rim light, high contrast silhouette, centered for a round crop. No text. 4. CONSISTENCY BLOCK The character is a small wiry halfling man about 40 with warm brown skin, curly gray streaked black hair tied back, one green eye and a pale cloth patch over the other eye, freckles, and a thin chin scar. He wears a patched charcoal coat with many pockets over leather armor and a mustard yellow scarf. He carries a short sword on his left hip and a hand crossbow on his back, and holds a brass pocket watch in his right hand. Painted fantasy style with visible brushwork and muted colors. 5. VARIATIONS Action: [consistency block] He leaps between two rooftops mid air, coat flaring, hand crossbow drawn in his left hand, watch chain flying from his right fist, lanterns streaking below. Downtime: [consistency block] He sits by a tavern fire, coat off, carefully opening the back of the brass watch with a tiny tool, warm firelight, quiet expression. Lineup: [consistency block] Full body, standing at the far left of the frame with plenty of empty space to the right for other party members, arms crossed, watch dangling from his right hand, neutral stone wall background. 6. FIX LIST - Weapon on the wrong side: "Keep everything the same, but move the short sword to his left hip." - Extra or merged fingers: "Redraw his right hand with five fingers holding the watch." - Armor ignores the sheet: "Replace the plate armor with dark leather armor under the charcoal coat." - Face looks generic: "Make the face clearly his: one green eye, a pale cloth patch over the other, plus the chin scar." - Text appears in the image: ask "Remove all letters and symbols from the image." and regenerate.
