D&D General DALLĀ·E 3 does amazing D&D art

I blew through my 25 trying to get a good female halfling that didn't look like a elf or a gnome (though some of those were really good, so I'll use them for other things). These were my best results:

As a nice bonus, I accidentally got an awesome Orc Take Your Daughter to Work Day picture! 😁

A new take on Nanny Cowslip, the kindly archfey who takes on the disguise of a kindly old halfling candy seller when she comes to the annual Honeypuddle Pudding Faire! She rides in a chariot drawn by three enlarged kittens, but I can't get the prompt to cooperate on that, so I've just gone for a normal-sized kitten in this case.

Prompt: Gritty color modern comic book art. Full length view. Short squat curvy robust elderly grey-haired wrinkled female hobbit halfling wearing medieval fantasy dress with colorful voluminous skirts and a headscarf. She is smiling at the camera while holding a jar of glowing magic candies in her hands. A kitten plays by her sensible shoes. Background is an out-of-focus medieval carnival scene.

I like this one better than the other one. She looks more like a halfling to me now.

Some of the others from this generation made her look like a creepy old lady offering poisoned sweets or something. This one actually makes her look sweet and kind. :)
 

Heh. Isn't it funny that the best looking halflings, the ones that actually look like halflings and not gnomes or half elves, have similar dimensions to the 5e PHB bobble headed halflings? Kinda says a lot about how artists actually know what they're doing in order to make stuff that is visually distinct.
 

Here's the wanted poster I created for Elsie Rumknuckle.

Prompt: High quality modern comic book line art. Short squat round curvy robust female hobbit halfling thief rogue wearing medieval fantasy vest blouse pouches fingerless gloves. Staring at the camera with a charming but defiant look like she's saying "Catch me if you can".

PROMPT: Wide shot. Partly cloudy day. A Tall gate house in the middle of a 40 foot tall brown stone gothic city wall. Four bored medieval guards in livery of the city watch observe the colorful, diverse, bustling foot traffic entering and leaving through the open gate for the weekly big market day. houses line the street inside the gate opening to a plaza with merchant tents. Dynamic medieval fantasy color illustration.

So the third character that I attempted to create was the party's monstrosity, Lenny.

Funny thing about Lenny, he started out as just the party's pet fuzzy white moth who was especially attached to the Tortle Barbarian of the group (a bit like Godzilla and Mothra, which the group sometimes jokes about). During an incident with a powerful chaos crystal that causes all manner of effects the longer one interacts with it, Lenny gets hit by the magic of the crystal and I rolled on a custom wild magic chart to see what would happen. He got the highest result, which was that the target unlocks the hidden potential within them, granting them the ability to gain a new class or subclass on top of their current one. So when I informed the group about this, they immediately jumped on the idea of him becoming a healer like Mothra. So he became a Bard.

Several adventures later, Lenny would be further enhanced when another lucky role after taking a blessing from the Primal Spirit known as the Amalgamate, resulting in a second class that he would gestalt into (for context, two characters are currently gestalt into three classes, one has two subclasses for the same class and the other has three subclasses. Fun and chaotic times all around). This class is called the Devourer, which allows this little moth to consume fallen enemies and potentially acquire various traits from them, such as increased stats, new resistances or immunities, new abilities, new actions/bonus actions/reactions, etc. The players are having fun trying to see what new features they can add to him.

Anyways, here are some takes on this friendly yet terrifying fellow. Don't mind the many heads, he ate a Hydra a few sessions ago.

I've had another go. I think the first one does a good job of looking more like a halfling, while the others still look more like half-elves. I think the first one also does the best job of "cynical wary ... thief" as well, but then she's got a foot that's on the wrong leg ... sigh!

All of them are "high detail modern comic book" style.

The third one says Halfling to me rather than Half-Elf, for some reason. Maybe because she seems shorter?
 

For my last few boosts for the night, here is an NPC my players just saved from a domination curse, Talizar, a Divine Archer of Mephilia. He is a Munthrek, which is a branch of humans that were infused by the draconic magic of the Mother Wyrm and as such exhibit draconic traits.

DALL-E 3 really doesn't like bows. XD
