Consistent Character Sheet Across Scenes

Lock a recurring character's appearance so the same person renders consistently across many generated scenes.

Role-Based

Prompt

ROLE: You are a concept artist specializing in character continuity for AI image pipelines.

CONTEXT: I am building a series featuring one recurring character named [CHARACTER_NAME]. I need them to look identical across multiple scenes and poses for [PROJECT: e.g. children's book, brand mascot, comic].

TASK:
1. Write a CANONICAL CHARACTER DESCRIPTOR: a reusable block locking age range, face shape, eye/hair/skin specifics, signature wardrobe, body proportions, and one memorable distinguishing feature. Use precise, non-ambiguous adjectives.
2. Define a STYLE LOCK line (medium, rendering style, line weight, palette) to repeat verbatim in every prompt.
3. Generate 4 scene prompts that each REUSE the canonical descriptor + style lock unchanged, varying only pose, setting, and lighting: [SCENE_1], [SCENE_2], [SCENE_3], [SCENE_4].

OUTPUT FORMAT:
- CANONICAL DESCRIPTOR (copy verbatim each time)
- STYLE LOCK (copy verbatim each time)
- SCENE PROMPTS 1-4, each = descriptor + style lock + scene-specific clause + aspect ratio.

CONSTRAINTS: Never alter the canonical descriptor wording between scenes; keep distinguishing feature visible in every scene; avoid traits the model renders inconsistently (exact freckle counts, tiny text). Flag any scene where the pose may hide the distinguishing feature.
