You’ve given your Characters names, aspirations, rich backstories, and probably even some undeserved trauma. Now you can give them faces too.
Character Portraits are now available in Story Bible. Effortlessly generate impressive portraits directly from your character cards or upload images you already have, to maintain a persistent visual reference for each character.
From description to portrait
Portrait generation uses your character’s existing Physical Description, so there’s no need to write a separate image prompt. Open a character card, click the empty Portraits box, choose a style, and click Generate.
We’ve included four default styles: Painterly, Cinematic Realism, Bright Editorial, and Storybook. Pick one, or select all four to generate different variations at once. Your brooding antagonist might look surprisingly charming in Storybook.
A little art direction
Want a particular outfit, expression, or setting? Add instructions in Appearance details to guide the portrait. You can even upload a reference image and explain what you’d like incorporated from that—say, a specific jacket your character should be wearing.
For more control over the art style, deselect the presets altogether and describe your own instead. A black-and-white pencil drawing? A vibrant graphic novel look? Give it a try.
Your cast, at a glance
Every generated portrait is saved to that character’s gallery automatically, so you can keep different looks and compare them later. Already have the perfect image? Use Upload to add it directly to the gallery.
Pick your favorite and click Set thumbnail. That portrait will appear beside the character’s name even when their card is collapsed, making it easier to find a familiar face in a crowded Story Bible. You can change the thumbnail or delete unwanted portraits whenever you like.
So what are you waiting for? Head to your Story Bible’s Character section and start firing off the glamour shots. We can’t wait to see who you make.
