The team has been adventuring in Lonelywood, having just returned from the Barbarian Camp after exposing Wolfdyne as something more sinister. They made a return to Lonelywood from there to do some business, and intercepted an assassination attempt on the Innkeeper. Then failed to stop an assassination on the local tyrant. So a more exciting than expected stopover.

Then an odd conversation with a Halfling led to an unexpected trip to the desert. A little bit of system shock may be involved just from the weather change…

The Hastings spend a relaxing night at the Inn after returning from the Barbarian Camp. The expectation was to run right back and finish that mission, but something unexpected happened…

That was a surprisingly easy bit of AI Art to pull off. My past experience would suggest describing more than two characters gets tricky. If nothing else, you typically run out of room.
Perhaps because there was no real “action” taking place here it came out? Basically I described the setting and the three family members relaxing together. This was from my second set (two sets of four, so I guess that’s eight renders resulted in one that was right on the money). This isn’t “perfect”, but perhaps only because Victoria came a little greyer than I imagine her. Maybe that’s her hero disguise? The armor comes off and her hair goes grey…
I tried a few more renders but it seemed to stray further from what I wanted, not closer. Close enough!

    Three characters can be tricky. The order in which you describe the characters matters a lot, as does action and setting. Also how similar it is to other images in the training set. One man with two women in a bar matches an awful lot of training images, so I’m not surprised it was easier to get that work. Same reason all my pics with three are things like “three friends relaxing on a hill” or remakes of book covers.

      That does explain a little, and is close to what I was guessing. A few other times I’ve done three for this run when one of them was Werner, guy in armor with a sword…

      BTW, I’m getting things in order for my next run through BG. Does it bother you if I use some of your image descriptions for NPC portraits but change the style to match my characters? This strikes me as among the weirdisms with AI art.

        Use whatever the heck you want! The whole reason I put them out there is so other people can play around with them.

        Great! That’s what I expected. Just hate to presume, especially if I post the ones I’m using.
