# Generate Character

`POST /v1/assets/generate`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.mocapless.com` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.mocapless.com/v1/assets/generate`
- Auth: none declared

A character from a photo or a description. The picture (drawn first
when there is none) becomes a mesh on the GPU, and the mesh gets a
skeleton like any upload. Charged up front, refunded if it fails.
