Picture books, comics and brand mascots all hit the same wall: character drift. The fix is not a longer prompt, it is a reference set — settle a base image, add angles, and carry that set into every generation.

## Frequently asked questions

### Are more references always better?

Around four is the knee of the curve; beyond that you mostly add cost.

### Can the style change?

Yes. With Identity Lock set to Face only, outfit and style are free to vary.
