Free AI D&D Character Generator — How It Works
CharGen is a free AI character generator built for D&D players and Dungeon Masters. Describe your character — race, class, equipment, mood — and the AI produces a finished portrait in under 30 seconds. No Photoshop, no commission waitlists, no prompt engineering required.
- Choose race, class, and visual style (realistic, painterly, anime, oil-on-canvas, or stylised sketch).
- Add optional visual cues: armour, colours, weapons, ancestry traits, and mood.
- Generate a portrait, avatar, or token; iterate until it matches your vision.
D&D Character Creator — What You Can Build
As a D&D character creator, CharGen covers every visual asset a campaign needs. Generate player character portraits for character sheets, NPC headshots for the DM screen, full-body illustrations for session handouts, and VTT tokens with circular or hexagonal borders ready for Roll20 or Foundry VTT. All art is print-ready at 1024 × 1024 px; premium tiers unlock 2 K and 4 K upscales.
- Player portraits — heroes, backstory scenes, and level-up upgrades.
- NPC portraits — allies, rivals, villains, and faction leaders.
- VTT tokens — circular, square, or hex borders with a transparent background.
- Full-body art — ideal for character sheets and campaign covers.
AI Character Generator — 160+ Models, One Prompt Box
The AI character generator draws on 160+ image models — Flux Dev, Flux Pro, Midjourney, Imagen 4, and DALL-E 3 — all accessible from a single prompt input. Each model has a different aesthetic: Flux Pro favours painterly fantasy realism, Midjourney delivers cinematic detail, and anime-specialist models produce clean cel-shaded portraits. Switch models without re-entering your prompt to compare styles.
The free tier grants daily generations across all base models. Plus tier unlocks premium models and batch generation (up to 4 portraits at once). Commercial usage rights are included on Elite and Ultimate plans.
Pair with Other CharGen Tools
Every portrait links to CharGen's entity workspace. From there you can turn any portrait into a VTT token, build the battlemap your character fights on, or create the NPC cast they interact with. All linked entities carry their portrait and stat block — loot, shops, and monsters included.
For a distinct look, choose a fantasy LoRA art style before generating. Painterly, dark gothic, and hyperrealistic variants are available in the style browser.
Character Art Tips for Sheets & VTT
Generate square crops for avatars and transparent-background variants for VTT tokens. Keep consistent palettes and motifs across portraits, and use the Token Maker to cut clean circles and export to Roll20/Foundry.
