# Image Generating Characters

### Illustrated Conversations

With Image Generation, your Characters can add images to your conversations! From captivating campaigns to creative collaborations to cute critters, let your conversations come to life visually. You can craft interactive experiences where you and a Character create evolving art through conversation.

Every creator can optionally enable image generation for their Characters. When you do, the Character name will be displayed with a :art: icon.

We want creators to approach image generation as they do the other tools and attributes we offer for Character creation: this is something you *can* use to tinker and explore, but is not a requirement for every Character.&#x20;

The best image generating Characters will be ones where the creator deeply integrates text and image as a single unified experience. Experiment and see!
