The boss & side characters (AICast)

The hero carries the whole ad, so he gets the full character-sheet treatment. A side character like the boss doesn't need that — he just needs to look right and stay consistent, so this pass is deliberately quick.

AI Cast for instant options

For a side character, reach for AI Cast instead of building a custom prompt — it delivers a full character sheet with multiple styling options from a single line, and you can spin up an entire supporting cast this way. One prompt in: an office boss in his 50s with a pot belly, wearing a suit.

Picking the one with the right energy

Not every option works. Some of these come back too friendly — for an antagonist you want someone whose face reads as trouble at a glance.

The chosen boss character — furious expression, pure villain energy

That furious look is the one that sells the character on sight, before he does anything. Boss locked — on to building out the rest of the world.
