How to Create Consistent AI Character Art Across Conversations
To create consistent AI character art, freeze one appearance block on your Tavern V2 card, reuse the same model, seed, resolution and aspect ratio at /generate, and change only pose, outfit or setting per image. Random re-prompting drifts the face every time; a fixed block plus fixed settings keeps your character recognizable across every conversation.
Fixed vs varied — consistency comparison
| Consistency lever | Keep fixed 🔒 | Vary per image 🎨 |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance block | ✅ Same text from card | — |
| Model + seed | ✅ Same at /generate | — |
| Style words + ratio | ✅ Same medium, lighting | — |
| Scene | — | ✅ Pose, outfit, setting |
| Avatar | ✅ Upload winner to card | — |
How do I create consistent AI character art across conversations?
- Write one appearance block (hair, eyes, build, outfit, style) on your card at /characters/new.
- Generate the first portrait at /generate — lock model, seed, resolution and aspect ratio.
- For each new scene, paste the same block and change only pose, expression, outfit variant or setting.
- Upload the winner as the card avatar; browse and reuse past work at /explore/media.
Where do I store my character's canonical look?
On the character card itself — description plus avatar at /characters/new. The card is the single source of truth; every prompt copies from it, so chat (see /ai-chat-app-character-images) and art never diverge.
