EDIT: I am not totally satisfied with this version and am retraining it with optimized parameters. (Learned something hopefully). Please wait for V2.

🌀 Moiraine Damodred — A Wheel of Time Character LoRA

"The Wheel weaves as the Wheel wills."

This LoRA captures the unique identity and elegance of Moiraine Damodred, an Aes Sedai of the Blue Ajah and a noblewoman from House Damodred of Cairhien. Known for her quiet strength, political savvy, and relentless pursuit of the Dragon Reborn, Moiraine stands as one of the most iconic figures in The Wheel of Time.

Her visual portrayal here emphasizes:

• A round, intelligent face

• Youthful appearance for her age (40's) due to effects of her connection and disciplined use of the True Source.

• Dark brown hair with subtle natural wave

• Her signature kesiera (a sapphire set in silver on her brow)

• Modest, medieval-style clothing, often high-collared and long-sleeved

• Calm, determined expressions—even under pressure

🔷 FLUX Version (Coming Soon)

This version of the LoRA is trained to integrate seamlessly into FLUX workflows and does not require any hard trigger word. It learns Moiraine’s identity through soft embedding, meaning she can appear naturally through descriptive prompts alone.

🔑 Prompt Notes:

• The phrase "Moiraine Damodred" will activate her identity when needed

• You do not need to include tags like kesiera or blue ajah Aes Sedai dress unless you're using the accessory LoRAs

• Works well in naturalistic scenes, fantasy lighting, and medieval settings

🌌 SDXL Version (Pony & Illustrious Coming Soon)

The SDXL version of this LoRA is trained with 1024px square images using rich, caption-based tags. It has been optimized to work across SDXL and the Pony and Illustrious versions will work simularly.

🛠 Training Info:

• Resolution: 1024x1024

• Steps: ~1300

• Batch Size: 2

• Repeats: 4

• Epochs: 15

• Network Dim: 8

• Alpha: 4

🔑 Prompt Tips:

• Trigger word: Moiraine Damodred

• Tags like 1girl, solo, brown hair, cloak, smile, sapphire kesiera, and high collar help reinforce appearance

• For realism, include: medieval inn, forest path, White Tower background, channeling, high fantasy woman, etc.

🪞 Accessories & Supporting LoRAs

This model was built with the help of two soft-triggered accessory LoRAs, which are available separately and may be used in FLUX or SDXL workflows:

🔹 Kesiera LoRA

• A soft LoRA trained to represent Moiraine’s signature jewelry: a sapphire set in silver, resting on her forehead.

• Appears naturally in FLUX when described as:
  “a silver chain across her forehead holding a small sapphire kesiera”

• Recommend only using it if the base character lora is not producing it right in your generations. The kesiera comes through stronger than the dress in the character model.

🔹 Blue Ajah Aes Sedai Dress LoRA (recommended)

• Used to render her formal blue gown, with long sleeves, silver embroidery, and a modest, high neckline.

• Activates softly in FLUX with:
  “blue ajah Aes Sedai dress”

• SDXL versions use a trigger word like: bluAjahDr if hard activation is desired.

🧵 Dataset Info

The SDXL v1 model was trained on:

• 44 captioned images of Moiraine in various scenes

• A mix of indoor, outdoor, battle, and resting poses

• Clothing included silk Aes Sedai dress (default), Aes Sedai battle dress, formal dresses, travel outfits, a nightgown, or nude.

• Hair tone was corrected by tagging black hair only when it appeared too dark, encouraging the model to treat brown hair as default

• Some images were tagged bare forehead to explicitly indicate when the kesiera is absent, allowing it to be part of her default identity when untagged

🧪 Use Cases

• Character consistency across multiple fantasy scenes

• Book-accurate Wheel of Time fan art

• Costume or accessory concept art

• Illustration of emotional and magical moments
