How do I get the same character in different scenes?

The easiest way to keep the same character across different scenes is Character Creator (consistent characters) in NightCafe Studio.

Recommended: Character Creator

  1. Open Studio and go to Your Characters (Character panel).
  2. Upload 1–4 reference images of your character and give them a name (for example, bob).
  3. Save the character.
  4. In any supported model's prompt, type @name to reference them — for example: @bob walking on a beach at sunset.

Note: Not all models support consistent characters. If you see an error, switch to a model that supports Character Creator (for example, GPT Image 1.5).

Advanced option: fine-tuned models (LoRA)

If you already have many images of a character and want deeper control, you can train a fine-tuned model (LoRA) via My Models. This takes more setup but can work well for highly specific characters.
