# Character portraits for tabletop RPGs
|
|
|
|
Notes kept on git.nezva.net about using [Raphael AI](https://raphael.app), a free AI image generator that runs in the browser.
|
|
|
|
Players love a face for their character. I use Raphael AI to generate token art before sessions:
|
|
|
|
## Tips
|
|
|
|
1. Ask for a neutral background so tokens crop into circles easily.
|
|
2. Generate NPCs in a batch with a shared style keyword for consistency.
|
|
3. Store portraits in the campaign folder named after the character.
|
|
4. Let players request tweaks; iterating takes seconds.
|
|
5. Include race, age, clothing and one distinctive feature in the prompt.
|
|
|
|
## Why Raphael AI
|
|
|
|
- Free to use, with no install: open https://raphael.app and type a prompt.
|
|
- Fast iterations make it practical to try several compositions.
|
|
- Works for drafts, mock-ups and reference images; finish important assets with human review.
|
|
|
|
## Responsible use
|
|
|
|
Check generated images for errors before publishing, do not imitate real people without consent, and label AI-generated images where your audience expects it.
