🧬 How to Build Original Characters (OCs) with ViVid Models

Step-by-Step Guide + Big Cheat Sheet of Tags

Creating your own original characters (OCs) is one of the most powerful and fun things you can do with ViVid models on xipics.com. Instead of only generating random people, you can design characters that stay consistent across multiple images, appear in different outfits, and even become part of entire storylines.

This guide will show you:

• Step-by-step workflow for building an OC with ViVid prompts.
• A huge cheat sheet of tags for hair, eyes, skin, clothes, and accessories.
• Tips to keep your OC consistent across multiple images.

🎯 Step 1 – Define Your Character Core

Every OC needs a foundation. Start with basic descriptors:

• Gender: 1girl, 1boy, female, male
• Age group: adult, mature woman, old man
• Body type: slim, curvy, athletic, petite, muscular
• Vibe: elegant, cute, goth, fantasy, casual

📌 Example Prompt Start

score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up,
1girl, adult, slim, elegant

🎯 Step 2 – Add Hair & Eyes (Signature Look)

Hair and eye color are often what makes a character instantly recognizable.

Hair Styles

long hair, short hair, ponytail, twin braids, messy hair, curly hair, straight hair, bob cut, drill hair

Hair Colors

blonde hair, silver hair, pink hair, green hair, blue hair, auburn hair, gradient hair

Eyes

blue eyes, amber eyes, green eyes, heterochromia, glowing eyes, sharp eyes, soft eyes

📌 Example Prompt

1girl, long wavy blonde hair, blue eyes, slim body, elegant

🎯 Step 3 – Define Clothing Style

Clothing sets the tone for your OC. You can go casual, stylish, or full fantasy.

• Casual: t-shirt, hoodie, jeans, school uniform, tank top
• Stylish: gothic dress, leather jacket, cocktail dress, suit, streetwear
• Fantasy/Sci-Fi: armor, mage robes, kimono, space suit, royal gown

📌 Example Prompt

1girl, young adult, long black hair, red eyes, slim, wearing gothic dress with lace gloves

🎯 Step 4 – Accessories & Personality Tags

Accessories make your OC stand out.

Headwear

glasses, goggles, cat ears, witch hat, headphones

Jewelry

earrings, necklace, choker, bracelet, ring

Personality/Expression Tags (mood boosters):

🎯 Step 5 – Test & Refine with Variations

• Use slight prompt edits to test: change hair color, outfit, or expression.
• Add seed locking (same seed = consistent character across multiple images).
• Save your core OC tags as a reusable block and mix with new settings.

📌 Example for Consistency
