Appendix E — Templates

Six artifacts, each a page you fill in rather than read: the specification from Part II, the prompt structure from 5.2, the from 9.5, the disclosure duties from 11.3, the single-post procedure from 7.6, and the records from 7.4 and 11.5. Keep the shape; adapt the fields.

Template 1 — Character bible form

Two files (2.3): a machine-readable core the pipeline reads, and a prose file for the parts only a person reads. Leave a field blank rather than inventing a detail you will not maintain.

Part A — machine-readable core

persona:            <name, exact spelling>
pronunciation:      <phonetic reference or audio file>
version:            <date + reason; never overwritten>
trigger_token:      <adapter trigger from 4.5>
palette:            <three dominant colors, two accents>
prohibited_words:   [<list>]
canon:              [<ten falsifiable facts>]
recurring_names:    [<named characters and their frequency cap>]
platforms:          [<handle per platform, identical spelling>]
disclosure_line:    <verbatim, from 11.3>

Part B — identity

  • Name, age at launch, and whether age advances:
  • Origin, city, languages, primary language:
  • Education and occupation:
  • Relationship status:
  • Family and recurring friends:
  • The one-sentence reason to follow (2.2):

Part C — physical

  • Height and build, with the dataset's head-to-body ratio (4.4):
  • Distinguishing mark — the QA :
  • Hair: length, color, texture, styles worn:
  • Face: the twelve attributes on the reference plate (5.1):
  • Hands: nails, jewelry, rings — the most reliable tell (1.4):
  • Voice: register, pace, accent, verbal tics:

Part D — voice rules at sentence level

  • Average sentence length and rhythm:
  • Vocabulary used; words never used, as a list:
  • Register, constant across platforms:
  • Emoji and punctuation conventions:
  • Five opinions, specific enough to be arguable:
  • When wrong: correction in character within a week, post never deleted (2.3):

Part E — boundaries: what the persona never says or does

  • Subjects refused, with the in-character reason:
  • Claims never made — medical, legal, or financial advice stated as fact:
  • Depictions never produced (12.4):
  • The one thing the persona is bad at on purpose, and how often it recurs:
  • Presented as a real human being? Never (9.5's clause to refuse):

Part F — timeline

  • Persona birth date and account launch date:
  • Dated entries: what changed, when, what published under the previous version:
  • Canon life events, with dates:
  • Style changes, with first-publication dates:
  • Decision log: question, answer, date:

Part G — platform presence

  • Platform, handle, and the format it carries:
  • Bio per platform, disclosure line first:
  • Pinned posts and their job:
  • The destination each profile routes to (10.1):
  • Which accounts carry paid work, and the label regime (11.3):

The canon test, before every publication: does this asset contradict any line in Part A or Part E? If yes, it does not publish.

Template 2 — Prompt templating file, 40 slots

Six parts, in order (5.2): identity (fixed), scene (the work), light (one per prompt), lens and framing (frozen vocabulary), style and grade (photographic register only, since the grade is applied in post), and quality and texture (the retention phrases).

[identity]  <trigger token>, <adapter and reference conditioning>, <age>
[scene]     <location>, <time of day>, <action>, <wardrobe>, <two or three props>
[light]     <one condition from the kit's three>
[frame]     <focal look>, <shot size>, <camera height>
[style]     <photographic register>
[quality]   preserve facial identity, realistic skin texture, natural skin pores
[negative]  blurry, jpeg artifacts, extra fingers, malformed hands, asymmetric eyes,
            plastic skin, doll-like, watermark, text, overexposed

Forty variants, roughly two weeks at three posts a day. Refill quarterly from the review slot (2.6), with the wardrobe and prop words drawn from your (2.3).

A filled , assembled

[identity]  <trigger token>, <adapter and reference conditioning>, woman, mid-20s
[scene]     standing in a small kitchen, morning, holding a mug,
            stone counter, a plant and a laptop on the counter
[light]     soft window daylight from the left, overcast, no harsh shadow
[frame]     50mm-equivalent look, medium shot, eye-level camera
[style]     documentary photography, available light, unretouched
[quality]   preserve facial identity, realistic skin texture, natural skin pores
[negative]  blurry, extra fingers, malformed hands, asymmetric eyes,
            plastic skin, doll-like, watermark, text, overexposed

Three rules carry it. The scene section holds roughly half the prompt, and no facial description appears, because a written face competes with the reference layer. One light only, since two sources produce the impossible-shadow tell (1.4). The grade is absent, since post applies it to every frame.

Template 3 — Media kit for a synthetic persona

One page plus one sample folder. The page answers questions; the folder proves quality. A brand buys a deliverable somebody inside the company can defend (9.5).

The page

  • Persona: name, niche, and the disclosure line verbatim — __________ is an AI-generated persona. Images and voice are synthetic.
  • Audience snapshot: followers per platform, engagement rate, free-to-paid split, three sentences on who they are.
  • Content formats: 4:5 stills, 9:16 clips, carousels, voiceover pieces, with quantities per campaign.
  • Reach: trailing 30-day average views, saves, shares. Median month, not best (9.2).
  • Capacity: turns per weekday, turnaround, from 5.6. No human creator's kit matches this line.
  • Deliverables: formats, variations per campaign, revision cap, in writing.
  • Rights offered: channels, window, territory, amplification included or not.
  • Compliance: disclosure placement (11.3), provenance records (11.5), asset metadata (7.4).
  • Likeness: an owned asset, provenance documented, no real person referenced (11.4).
  • Contact: one person, one address, one ask.

The rate card

Scale Quoted rate Scope to attach
Micro, under 10k followers $100 per post at the low end [AS OF 2026-10] Post count and format
10k–50k followers $500–2,000 per post [AS OF 2026-10] Variations, window, exclusivity
Established persona above $2,000 per campaign [AS OF 2026-10] Category and usage length
Top of market $10,000 and above, reported [AS OF 2026-10] Campaign scope, brand-safety record
AI UGC creative, no audience needed priced per deliverable Turnaround, variations, rights

Category choice moves the rate more than follower count does, and the lower band prices the risk of an unknown account (9.5).

Template 4 — AI UGC agreement: clauses to draft

This is a drafting checklist for a lawyer, not a contract, and not legal advice. It lists the clauses a synthetic-persona deliverable agreement needs and the question each settles.

Clause The question it settles
Scope of rights Which channels may run the assets, in which media, for what purpose
Exclusivity Which competing categories are closed to the persona, and for how long. Price separately, cap at 30 to 90 days
Term How long the agreement runs, as against how long the assets may be used
Territory Where the assets may be published or amplified
Usage windows The window per channel, with a start date and the expiry position
Disclosure obligation Who places the disclosure, in what form, on which surface, and what happens if the brand strips it (11.3)
Approval rights Who approves assets, in how many rounds, within what response time
Payment schedule Milestones tied to accepted deliverables rather than campaign results
Termination What each side may end, on what notice, and which assets come down
IP ownership Who owns the assets, the persona, the adapter, and the prompts. Keep the identity artifact
No-real-person warranty The licensor warrants that no real person's likeness was used, and documents training provenance (11.4)
Indemnity Who carries the cost if a claim arises, and what each side does when one does
One clause to refuse Any term requiring the persona to be presented as a real human being (9.5)

The refusal clause is not a negotiating position: it conflicts with the disclosure duties in 11.3.

Template 5 — Single-post production SOP

Five fields per step and nothing else (7.6). Thresholds replace descriptions: "generate enough images" is not executable, "150 frames, stop at a 25% failure rate" is.

# Step Tool Threshold Owner Time
1 Pull the next prompt variant Prompt list (5.2) One variant, no browsing 1 min
2 Generate Engine (7.2) 3–6 frames for a still; 2–3 clips for video 2 min
3 Technical screen Eyes (5.6, stage 1) Reject any visible defect in 2 s 2 min
4 Identity QA 4.6 rubric vs reference sheet Nothing scoring 2 or below survives 2 min
5 Canon check Bible and timeline register Any contradiction is a reject 1 min
6 Edit if needed Post-processing (5.5) Three attempts maximum 0–10 min
7 Motion, voice, sync if video 6.2, 6.5, 6.6 Voice first, then video 0–10 min
8 Assemble and grade Editor and preset (6.7) Delivery checklist passes 3 min
9 Caption and hook Templates Hook generated deliberately 3 min
10 Disclosure check 11.3 Label present before scheduling 1 min
11 Record metadata System (7.4) Automatic except the QA score 1 min
12 Schedule or publish Scheduler behind the human gate Human decision 1 min

Target 20 to 40 minutes. The two steps that overrun are the edit, because the three-attempt rule is not enforced, and the canon check.

Template 6 — Compliance and provenance register

Four registers, one directory per persona, stored outside the tool that could be turned off (7.4, 11.5). Write to them at creation: a record reconstructed six months later is a narrative.

Register A — sixteen metadata fields per asset

Field Purpose
asset_id Stable reference
persona Multi-persona disambiguation
created Date, for the timeline register
prompt Reproduction, and the provenance record
prompt_variant Which of the forty (5.2)
seed Reproduction (5.2)
model + version Reproduction and diagnosis
base_model_hash The 4.5 mismatch trap
adapter + version + hash Identity version
references_used Which sheet, outfit, or location
qa_score The 4.6 dimensions
defect_code Required on every rejection (5.6)
edits What changed after generation
status One of the six states in 7.4
published_url + date Compliance and analytics
disclosure_label Which text was used, and where (11.3)

Six exist for compliance: prompt, model, adapter, created, published_url, disclosure_label. Only three are typed by a human — qa_score, defect_code, status — because the pipeline reads the rest.

Register B — disclosure log. One row per published asset: asset ID, platform, label text from 11.3, placement, date, mechanism, and the DM disclosure timestamp per conversation.

Register C — rights documentation

Record Contents Retain
Face provenance Base model, prompt, seed, no-real-person attestation Life of persona + 5 years
Source licenses Model release or stock license Same
Model and adapter licenses Base model license, training terms, output rights Same
Consent documents Assignment or license, with scope and term Same
Vendor agreements Processing terms, training opt-out confirmations Life of contract + 5 years
Interaction disclosure DM opener text and first-message timestamps Per your policy
Incident log False-positive labels, takedowns, complaints, outcomes 5 years

Retention here is a working default, not legal advice: keep records as long as a claim could be brought, and five years is a safe EU floor (11.4).

Register D — the quarterly review line. One accumulating file, one row per quarter, holding the date, the four decisions from 12.5, and what changed as a result.

How to use these templates

Fill the machine-readable parts first, because those are the fields a checklist can verify, and leave the prose for judgment. Version every file with a date and a reason, the same discipline as adapter versions (4.7), and archive the superseded copy — a canon edit changes what has already been published, and you will want to know which version was live in March.

The legal material in Templates 4 and 6 is a checklist for a qualified professional, not a document to sign as written, and not legal advice. The EU regime is still transitioning through 2 December 2026. Templates 1, 2, and 5 work today; 3, 4, and 6 open a brand conversation and survive one.
