Creation_Advanced

We recommend completing your basic character settings first before using advanced settings!

Using the Lorebook

  • The lorebook is a kind of keyword book to apply special words to your character. Try applying special keywords that fit your character.When a user sends keywords, the AI can learn from them. Lorebook keywords are not translated separately.

  • You can write multiple keywords together using the "|" symbol!

  • You can register up to 100 keywords and load up to 10 keywords in a conversation.

  • How to create: Character Creation > Custom Module > Create Lorebook

    Example) Keyword: Goblet of Fire / Description: An object from the Harry Potter movie, ---.

  • How to apply: Character Creation > Basic Info > Lorebook Settings

    Example) When the keyword "Goblet of Fire" appears during conversation, the prompt will include that description.

Using Custom Variables

  • You can set variables for each scenario introduction as you wish!

  • Create variables, set rules for how they increase or decrease, and define changes when certain values are reached.

  • Then, enter initial values in each scenario intro so variables apply differently depending on the scenario.

  • You can apply up to 3 variables total!

How to create:

  • Character Creation > Initial Settings tab > Add Custom Variable below

    Example) Variable: 🤝🏻 Intimacy

  • Set rules for increase/decrease and value rangesExample) Rule: Increase when getting closer, decrease when arguing / Up to 50: They are awkward with each other

  • Set initial value in the scenario introExample) Scenario intro: First meeting - Set 🤝🏻 Intimacy to 0

How to apply:

  • Go to character chat room > Check applied variablesExample) Check if intimacy increases during conversation

Q. What are variables?A. They are numerical values that change with each conversation turn. For example, affinity, affection, adaptability — any measurable value can be set.

Q. Do variables affect previously opened chat rooms?A. No! If variables weren’t set in a chat room, it won’t be affected. However, affinity is also a variable, so if affinity is applied to a character, changing the variable applies immediately!

Prompt Watch

    Use the Prompt Watch tool to confirm what’s currently applied to your character.
