How to make a superhero
Describe your hero in one line — the suit, the power, the weakness, the origin — or start from your own photo. Character App builds that Character once and keeps the same face and costume in every Scene, Episode and Look, from comic-style to 3D animated, then films them as moving Clips instead of a single poster. Add a sidekick, a rival and a villain to the Cast, give the city a World, and direct each rescue Scene by Scene. Original heroes only. Start in the free Studio.

Same Character, any Look
Maren in 2 Looks: cinematic, graphic-novel ink. Put Maren into another World with a different Look and the face, the hair and the wardrobe carry over; only the pen changes.

The character sheet
Before Maren is in a single Scene, there is a sheet: front, three-quarter and back views, plus the expressions the story will need. It is how we design a Character and how Character App keeps Maren consistent from Clip to Clip, in every Look.
It is not a download. You never manage a reference sheet yourself, and the app does not export a turnaround file; the Cast keeps the Character on-model in the Scenes you direct.
Maren lives in your Characters
Every Character you make keeps its Looks in one place, one for each World’s Look. Use Maren in a new World and the Cast brings the same face into that World’s Look, in every Scene and Clip.

Original heroes only
Existing comic-book heroes belong to their publishers, so Character App won't make them — and honestly, yours will be more interesting. Invent the power, the suit and the day job. The best original heroes start with a person, not a power: the nurse who can pause time but still works the night shift, the retired teacher who can talk to buildings. You bring the idea; the Studio draws a hero who is yours.
Designing a superhero that reads
Superheroes are seen mid-motion, from far away, against busy skylines.
Two colours and a shape
A teal suit with orange gloves, a cape or no cape, a mask or a bare face. Keep the costume simple enough to recognise in a wide shot.
A power you can film
Freezing time, lifting a bus, bending light. Pick powers with a clear visible effect; each Scene works best as one physical action.
A weakness with a story
Only works at night, costs a memory, drains the city's power. Weakness is where the plot lives.
The same suit in every Scene
A hero's costume has to survive rooftops, rain and rematches. Character App builds each Character once — from a description or your own photo — and keeps face and suit on-model across every Scene, Episode and Look. Film the origin in a comic-book style and the finale in 3D animated; the hero is still the hero. Every Scene is filmed as a Clip with real motion, so the landing actually lands.
Be the hero — or build a team
Add your own photo in the app and the hero resembles you. Want friends as your superhero team? Only with their permission — the content policy requires the person in the photo or their written consent, and public figures are off the table. Fights stay stylized: graphic violence and gore are against the content policy.

From one line to a Character on film
- 1
Pitch your hero
One line: the person, the power and the weakness. Character App sketches the city they protect.
- 2
Build the team
Add the sidekick, the rival and the villain from descriptions or your own photo. Every suit and face stays locked from the first Scene.

Film the rescues
Direct each Scene, make the Clips and keep the takes with the best landing. The next Episode, the villain is back.
Questions, answered
Still curious? Using your own photo and the guides go deeper.
Can I use existing superheroes from comics or movies?
No — original heroes only. Existing characters belong to their publishers; design your own suit, powers and name instead.
Does my hero keep the same costume and face across Episodes?
Yes. The Character is built once and kept on-model across Scenes, Episodes and Looks, suit included.
Can I be the superhero, using my own photo?
Yes — add your own photo in the app. Anyone else's photo needs their permission or written consent.
Is this a still image or a real filmed fight Scene?
Filmed. Every Scene is a moving Clip. Short, single-action shots — a landing, a punch that cuts away, a lift — hold up best.
Can I make a superhero team?
Yes. Build the whole team into one Cast; they stay consistent together in group shots.
What does a superhero Episode cost?
Currently the free Studio gives you one World build, one Character a day and 4 Lite Images a day. A plan unlocks Clips and Film — Starter is $19.99 a month for 800 Credits — and a 5-second Clip made from an Image on H3 Max Turbo is 15 Credits. The price is on the button before you press.
