Simple Process

Build Your Character Universe in 3 Steps

Create persistent characters once, then star them in story after story with perfect consistency.

1

Design Your Characters

Describe your character's appearance, personality, and style. Set their hair, face, clothing, and accessories. The AI builds a visual identity that stays consistent everywhere.

"Luna — 8-year-old girl, curly red hair, green eyes, yellow raincoat, always carries a magnifying glass, curious and brave"

2

Write Their Stories

Create a new story and select your characters from your library. The AI generates pages where your characters look exactly right — same face, same details, every single page.

"Luna discovers a hidden door in the library that leads to a world made entirely of books..."

3

Build a Series

Keep creating new adventures with the same characters. Build a 5-book series, a holiday collection, or an entire universe. Your characters are always ready for the next story.

Book 1: Luna & the Book World → Book 2: Luna's Ocean Mystery → Book 3: Luna in Space

Why C2Story

The Best Tool for Character-Driven Stories

Everything you need to build persistent characters and star them in unlimited illustrated stories.

Persistent Character Identity

Define a character once — their face, hair, clothing, accessories — and the AI keeps them visually identical across every page and every book in your series.

50+ Illustration Styles

Your characters look consistent in any style — watercolor, cartoon, anime, cinematic, or storybook. Switch styles between books while keeping the same beloved characters.

Multi-Character Scenes

Place 2, 3, or more of your characters in the same scene. Group illustrations maintain each character's unique look — no mix-ups, no inconsistencies.

Reuse Across Stories

Build a character library you can pull from anytime. Start a new story and your existing characters are ready to go — no re-describing or re-designing needed.

Character Evolution

Age characters up, change outfits for different seasons, add new accessories — while keeping their core identity. Perfect for series that span years or life events.

Print & Digital Export

Export character-driven stories as print-ready PDFs, publish entire series on Amazon KDP, or share digitally. Your characters look perfect in every format.

Tips for Great Character Stories

Give each character a visual signature — a red scarf, star-shaped glasses, a lightning-bolt hat. These details make characters instantly recognizable and help the AI maintain consistency.

Signature details

Write a character bio before your first story. Include personality traits, fears, dreams, and catchphrases. This depth makes characters feel real and gives you endless story material.

Character depth

Start with 2-3 core characters, then expand. A best friend duo or a family trio gives you relationship dynamics to explore. Add new characters gradually as your universe grows.

Start small

Let characters grow between books. A shy character becomes braver. A clumsy robot learns balance. Character arcs across a series give readers a reason to keep coming back.
