Hey everyone, and Happy New Year!
For those who generate locally, LoRA can take a lot of storage (I personally have 371 LoRAs which take up 71GB of storage on my PC). To save up some space, i've made a list of characters that are recognized by Illustrious, i will update it regularly.
I tested every character (mainly with WAI-NSFW and Hoseki) by prompting "character_name \(franchise\)". Some characters will need extra prompting (species, accessories, eye color, body features...), for instance, Pokémon and Digimon will need "pokemon (creature)" or "digimon (creature)".
This list is based on 2D checkpoints, a realistic checkpoint should have a totally different outcome as these are mostly fictional characters.
This list is made to give you a general idea. Recognition of some characters may differ slightly with some checkpoints. Test it for yourself to make sure it meets your expectations and work with your favorite checkpoint. If it's not, search for a LoRA (or make it yourself).
Keep in mind that a specific skin, outfit or version of a character will probably require a LoRA.
This list will be focused primarly on male characters. Feel free to make suggestions in the comments to fill up the list.
Use CTRL-F to find a specific character.
Note : A list had been made for Pony, and since Illustrious has a more recent database than Pony, it is very likely that the characters recognized with Pony are also recognized with Illustrious. Check out the Pony List Here. You can also check out Ponychar.com which is much more complete.
