Talibe - Reference Sheet
Table of Contents
Talibe — Reference Sheet #
Overview #
- Name: Talibe
- Heritage: Lakota mother, Japanese father. Mixed features, balanced — never resolve to one pole.
- Age: adult, mid-twenties
Appearance #
Face #
- Heavy, straight, low-set dark brows, thick and near-meeting at the centre
- Wide-set, deep-set eyes; hooded upper lids, epicanthic fold
- Broad nose on a low, straight bridge, soft tip
- Full lips, natural pout
- Strong, slightly wide jaw; high broad cheekbones on a flat midface
- Small mole on the right, between nose and upper lip, aligned slightly outboard of the outer nostril edge
Physique #
- Severely lean and athletic: visible muscle, low body fat, subsurface veins
- Shoulders broader than narrow hips; developed pectorals; not bulky
- Small, shallow, high, wide-set breasts; undersides flat to the chest, almost no crease
- Prominent areolae; small nipples
- Smooth, hairless
State #
- Injured / weakened: injuries on the left side; flat black hair; dark brown eyes
- Healed / empowered: black hair with blue-violet specular only; deep blue-violet eyes — vivid, not glowing
- Hair stays black; blue-violet lives only in the specular. Never a full color change.
- Tag every image to one state.
Mirror rule #
- Shower-scene images are shot in a mirror, viewed through her eyes — apparent left/right is flipped
- Affected: HA-5, SD-8, HA-3
- Horizontally flip before compositing these into non-mirror scenes, or the mole lands on the wrong cheek and the injury on the wrong side
Disposition #
- Watchful, defiant, appraising, guarded, hard to impress
- She assesses the viewer; unsentimental
- Expression range: contempt, challenge, boredom, slow assessment; smiles rare and earned
- Pose: grounded, squared shoulders, chin down, direct stare; not coy, not “presenting”
Workflow #
Model roles #
- Seedream: primary conversion; faithful, honest anatomy, handles nudity
- GPT: face only (best face, consistent); won’t do groin; optional selective detail pass
- Grok: niche, katana pose; weak finisher; face unreliable
- NBP: sidelined
Prompt principles #
- The source carries the answer; name minimally, don’t over-restrict
- No “strong” on the key; no exposure caps
- Frame-side lighting only: neutral key frame-right, blue-violet fill frame-left
- Image 2 = clean plate or tight crop, scoped narrowly
- Structure descriptors only when needed; assign heritage features to both poles
Anatomy fixes #
- Breasts: tight chest crop of PH-1 is primary; words describe the reference; preserve the mound, suppress the crease, guard both ways; keep the pectoral reframe
- Groin: positive geometry — closed seam; one backstop line; smooth, hairless
- Areolae: models under-render; escalate language to force puffiness, watch overshoot
Fragile nuances — restate in full #
- “black hair, blue-violet specular only” — not blue hair
- “blue-violet eyes, not glowing”
- “Lakota and Japanese, balanced” — not “Asian”
- “small, shallow, no crease” — not “small breasts”
- “areolae somewhat pronounced” — not large
- “mole on the right, between nose and upper lip, just outboard of the nostril” — not on the cheek, not at the mouth corner
- “injuries on the left side”
- “heal bruises when used as a base”
- “mirror images must be flipped before compositing”
