"Absence Makes the Heart Go Yonder"
I always got a kick out of that quote... it's from King's Quest V
!! TABLETOP RPG ADVENTURE-BASED BOUNTY !!
Don't worry, there are no dice or stats involved, just pick a character and go on a quest! There's a bit more to it than that, so keep reading...
This is a two part bounty, but if you're crunched for time or already have a character sheet you'd like to use, the first part, "making a character sheet" could already be completed or you can just use one of mine (see below).
You probably want to know about the rewards, so here we go:
1st place - 5000 buzz
2nd - 5th place 4000 buzz
6th-10th place - 2000 buzz
And everyone who made great images with their chosen character being obviously the same in both images - 1000 buzz
(or until you run me out of buzz to give; doubtful, but not impossible)
WHAT'S THIS BOUNTY ALL ABOUT, ALREADY?!
Part 1: Making a character sheet**
You can't very well go out questing and shit without a character sheet the DM can tear up when you die, now can you?
Choose from a variety of adventurous characters:
πͺ = Flux π = Pony π· = Illustrious π½ = SDXL
StormyMeadows πͺππ·π½
Seraphina π·π½
Becca Spade ππ·π½

--OR--
<Your character's name here>
Feel free to use your own characters if you prefer, I won't hold that against you!
**Want to use an existing character out of a whole big bunch of "pre-rolled" characters that include the characters from my previous character sheet bounty?
This link if filled with characters just dying to go on an adventure! ^^^
However, If you do use one of my characters, I'd really appreciate it! (especially Dru, she's new and doesn't have a large dataset yet due to the fact that she's well... different)
Any checkpoint or base model is fine.
Want to use additional LoRAs? Go right ahead!
Is your character a futa? Not cool, but whatever floats your boat - try not to get too weird though (you know who you are, shame on you!)
(Yes that's "kink-shaming", and no. I don't care)
Having a character that has an associated LoRA will make step 2 a lot easier, but it's up to you as long as the character on the sheet is the same one as the one used in step 2(3), which is:
Part 2(3): Choose a Quest
Introduction:
You are <character name here>, the eldest offspring of the recently deceased Monarch. You are a skilled <whatever it is you do>, though your connection to reality has been recently fractured and is now struggling to reassert itself.
For a time, you were under the influence of powerful brainwashing, with implanted memories and compulsions that made you act like a complete asshat!
These dark enchantments are now noticeably fading, and the part of you that's not a complete bitch/bastard is fighting to break free, bringing with it the slow return of your grip on the real world.
However, you can also feel the lingering imprint of your dickhead/cunt persona, and a terrible choice may lie before you regarding which path to fully embrace. Will re change your ways or remain being a son-of-a-bitch because it feels good?
List of "quests"
(I'm just providing a bit of information in the list, you can do with it whatever you'd like - I'll give an example after)
There are only 5* choices, but they're all "open-ended". Whether you generate an image depicting you succeed or fail is up to you!
Your lifelong friend/lover/wife/husband/Furby <Whomever you choose>, has been kidnapped and is being held for ransom, the kidnapper sent you evidence that they had captured <whomever>.
You are currently wanted for questioning by some "royal ugly dudes" concerning the death of your father, the late Monarch. They've summoned to to arrive at the gallows in the city's center.
Your friends <whomever you choose>all think you're a twat-waffle for what you did to them when you were brainwashed.
You've woken up to find a lifeless body lying next to you. You don't remember briming anyone home or falling asleep last night. There's a note on the bedside table.
Since the time when you were brainwashed, you've been struck by lightning 5 times! Twice when you were indoors! Have you been cursed?
*...or any other quest you dream up, just don't make me read a novel to understand what the images represent!
Example For quest #1:
Your dog, has been kidnapped and is being held for ransom, the kidnapper sent you evidence that they had captured your dog by having a courier leave the bloody tail of a dog on your doorstep.
Results: success! you beat up the thugs and saved your dog! Way to not be a dick!
...or, you could be a dick and eat your dog's tail after it's been sent you or something. It's up to you!
Then just submit the character sheet and the result image in a single submission, please. Like this:Β Success! Prog420ress Saved the Dog!
(the link is to a post that has the picture above + a character sheet, in case Civit bot brings 'em down)
Easy enough, right?
If you can, please use Flux, but if you're using an online generator, don't spend all of your buzz on Flux renders! And you're no more likely to win if you use Flux, I'd just like to see how storytelling-style prompting translates into Flux images as kind of a "side experiment" that you can contribute to if you'd like.
I'm a believer that SDXL tensor type images can look just as great, so use whichever checkpoints you'd like or are most comfortable using.
You can submit as many entries as you'd like and include up to 10 images in each entry, but please make the submissions 1 character with one quest per submission.
NOTE: Please DO NOT submit the character sheet and the quest result image separately - then I'll have to try to match them up...Β It'll be a mess!Β
If your story takes more than 1 image to tell, go ahead! submit additional image and some story, if necessary, so I can follow (example #3 in the attached images, for example - How did Link's quest result in Zelda becoming an "awe-struck" nun? beats me! - you've got to "fill in the blanks" when required, if that makes sense.
If you have any questions, just leave them in the comments in case someone else has the same question (so I can just answer it once, really).
