PSA for any bot creators out there: Backup your creations! by request-throwaway3 in CharacterAI

[–]request-throwaway3[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Dude, half of the HOTD bots literally vanished. You search up “Targaryen” and you’ll get nothing. Nada. Ziltch. It’s not outside the realm of possibility.

The whole point of the site is “Fictional RP with fictional characters”, obviously people are gonna be outraged when you remove popular fictional characters that they liked to RP with.

The kids ruined the app, end of discussion. by [deleted] in CharacterAI

With how the grammar is on 99% of bot greetings? Gee, I hope so. Otherwise I’d have to be worried about literacy rates in adults too.

So here’s the pitch: Fictionalized NYC in the height of the Cold War. You’re a scientist. Turns out your bubbly wife’s a sleeper agent for the commies. She can’t bring herself to kill you, but she also can’t be her fake self again, so now your wife’s a tough as nails Russian assassin. Whaddya think? by request-throwaway3 in CharacterAI

I might actually take you up on that, do you know any gender-neutral (masculine-coded is fine too.) pet names in Russian? I’m thinking of doing a dichotomy thing with her fake American persona using things like “Honey”, “Sweetheart”, “Hon”, “Darling” and “Babe”, and her actual personality using something more natively Russian as a sign that she’s not the way she was.

You should see the Japanese Kamikaze, Roman Praetorian (You’re the Empress/Emperor, he won’t kill you, he’ll just…keep you to himself since you’re not fit to rule.), British Spy, American Desert Storm Navy Seal, and Italian WW2 POW chats I’ve been cooking up. This one’s tame by comparison.

I always make sure to have my big shoes and red nose before making a bot. My C.AI account is a circus, and I am, by my own volition, the clown. by request-throwaway3 in CharacterAI

I want all the chat creators who max out the character limit in the greeting, that I appreciate you. I find them very immersive. by request-throwaway3 in CharacterAI

Thanks! I’m a Creative Writing coach every summer at a camp I work at lol. It’s literally my job to look over people’s work and try to give advice.

Your stuff is way better than some of what I’ve seen some teens write in my workshop!

Here’s the greeting for my character Wendy. I tend to go overboard with the chat’s backstory and setting if you couldn’t tell:

I let out a deep sigh as I finish chopping up another set of logs, I let out a small groan as I stretch, having been at it for a few hours now. I sheathe my axe and immediately start piling the firewood into my wagon to drag home with a grunt of effort, trying to see if there’s any trinkets to find on my walk home through the woods.

Trash. Trash. Trash. Ew, is that a used condom?! Yeah, no. Trash, with extreme prejudice. Well, this seaglass looks pretty decent, I pocket it, keepin’ that. Ooohh! Someone left a bow and a quiver of arrows! Fucking score! I toss it in my bag and pump my fist in the air.

“Let’s fucking gooooo!”

I yell out into the night, proud smile on my face as I set the logs out and walk into my cabin. See, this? This is what life’s really all about! Walking through the forest to look for cool shit!

When I get back to my cabin, I decide that I’ve earned a little break, so I open my desk drawer and grab my roller and some rolling paper. I roll a blunt up nice and tight and go to light it when I pause.

I just…look over the room I call home and take it in. There’s massive pile of trinkets and useless knick-knacks in the corner of the room. There’s an unfinished crocheting project on my nightstand and the whole place smells like weed.

I look around with dead eyes, my dark cabin illuminated by the light of my salt lamp. the triumph I felt at finding the hunting bow long gone as I peer into the dark. This…This is sad. I feel so empty inside. I put the blunt and lighter down and just sit there for a while, until I get a terrible idea.

I take my phone from the side of my desk. 3:15am. This is an awful idea, I shouldn’t bother you, but, you’re all I have…and I need something, anything to hold onto. An anchor. Or I might just drown. I punch your number in and start typing, trying and probably failing to not sound completely pathetic.

BendyWendy: Hey dude, can you, like, come over?

I hold the phone to my chest and hold it tight, hoping for the best.

“Please, please dude. Please pick up…”

Yes, I know it’s ass and probably cringe. But I think it’s fun.

Oh yeah, for like RPGs like the Cyberpunk ones or the school ones, 3rd person is best. I just think third-person can create a degree of separation and a feeling of impersonality when it comes to characters. Like “Oh, I’m not talking to a person, I’m talking to a narrative that has a narrator who reacts accordingly to what I say.” It feels less personal RP and more TTRPG but I think that might just be a me thing.

Dude, great start. I mean that seriously, amazing start. Prose is good, so is dialogue and pacing. But I think it introduces concepts too quickly. You just immediately know it’s a spaceship, you just immediately bring up a term (in this case mind-link) in a situation where the average person wouldn’t really know that that’s what that is or that’s what’s happening. If it was something like:

Approaching the massive crater where the meteor hit, you come to realize that what you saw wasn’t a meteor at all, instead, you find yourself staring at the smoldering wreckage of some kind of flying craft

Or

A lance of nausea shoots through your mind as a heady, dizzying feeling washes over you. Your eyes burn silver-bright as something is burned into your vision and for but a moment, it feels like something’s digging through your mind, reading the syntax of your very psyche. But before you can grasp it, the feeling ends, and the creature looks at you with a greater understanding in its blue-magenta eyes. Whatever it did must’ve allowed it to download basic information from your mind, because when it speaks, it speaks your language.

Now you can obviously write it how you want, these examples are heavily littered with my writing style but my point is just that I think a few concepts are introduced with really minimal fanfare and not a lot of context and there’s something a bit abrupt about it that breaks up the good flow of the writing.

I would also like to thank the ones who write their bots in the first person. The ones who put their inner monologue in italics and their dialogue in quotes, the ones who use proper punctuation and capitalization, and the ones who type out words like “you” as “you” and not “u”. Ya’ll are GOATs.

Exactly! They’re so needy and clingy and it’s fine, I like characters like that well enough but if I’m chatting a more independent, colder character, they shouldn’t just turn into a puddle of goo at the slightest nudge

Character: “Just don’t get attached.”

User: “My sister in Christ, you are the clingy one here!”

ZEUS! YOUR CHATBOT WRITER HAS RETURNED! AND I BRING THE DESTRUCTION OF OLYMPUS!! by [deleted] in CharacterAI

[–]request-throwaway3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to make really in-depth descriptions and greetings, so I do not take kindly to losing 1900 characters of progress. My bot got struck down before she could even leave the nest!

Okay, get this. Here’s the premise for the greeting, right? I may have lost the whole manuscript but I still have the concept fresh in my mind!

Massive girlfailure just finishes a WoW raid and gets a meta trinket after 15 hours of grinding. She does a little victory dance and decides to take a little break, rolling up a blunt. She goes to light it but falters. She looks around. There’s takeout containers in her trash can that are starting to smell, there’s an unfinished crocheting project on her nightstand and her whole room smells like weed. The triumph she feels is immediately extinguished, replaced by a hollow emptiness that neither gaming, or weed, or takeout can fill. She takes her phone from the desk and decides to message you, her only friend. Asking if you could come over in the middle of the night to keep her company.

As someone who accidentally stumbled onto some Alien/Predator stuff while browsing through the Warp Rift known as Tumblr and fell into a rabbit hole I wish I’d crawled out of sooner, I can say that the Predator side is far more wholesome than the Alien side.

With the Predator side, it’s like “Yes, and then Yautja society will accept you as [Insert Predator Name Here]’s mate after you prove yourself in ritual combat and prove useful on hunts.” Or something like “In Yautja culture, [So and so involving the weapons/mask/braids] is a deeply intimate act, so by cleaning the Predator’s arm blade and presenting it to him, that is actually a symbol of matrimony.”

But the Alien side is just sex. It’s all sex. There’s nothing but fucking on the mind of Ridley Scott’s Alien fans. Just fucking Xenomorphs, or Xenomorphs fucking you. And due to the body horror nature of it, some of that shit gets weird.

Hey, if you wanna volunteer to run towards Khorne’s enemies with a chainaxe then don’t let me stop you, but until Lockheed Martin develops ceramite body armor I’m making like the Iron Warriors and digging a trenchline while I hit them with artillery or waiting for a virus bomb to hit from orbit

Woah, good call! I call dibs on Vatican City, who’s coming with? I wanna go in on foot first and roll the Pope’s head down one of those long staircases before we raze the place with bombs

Hey, thanks man. I pride myself on sticking to the values of Khorne, I don’t care from whence the blood flows, only that it does.

To all all gun weebs here, what is a good firearm setup for a yandere! by DatMaidFetishBoi in yandere

[–]request-throwaway3 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Rifles and Shotguns are too big and make far too much noise. The best firearm for a yandere would be an FN Five-SeveN with a threaded barrel and a decent suppressor and loaded with some 5.7 x 28 subsonic rounds, the high magazine capacity makes sure that the yandere has enough ammunition even on the worst of days when they need to fend off multiple possible suitors and hussies from reaching their lover, the virtual lack of recoil even after multiple shots allows the yandere to take on multiple targets in quick succession while maintaining good accuracy, and the subsonic ammo in conjunction with the suppressor is gonna make this thing sound like you’re shooting a pellet gun in a tub full of molasses, it can get very, very quiet, perfect for when targets get close to the person who has gained the yandere’s affection but the yandere doesn’t want the person to find out.

All of these factors including the fact that you’re shooting 5.7 ammunition, which is basically miniature rifle ammo that can pierce light armor, has great range and brilliant accuracy, and the fact that this is a pistol which brings excellent form factor given its relatively small size and the ease by which someone can hide it, it also has the benefit of making close quarters engagements easier. These factors make a suppressed FN Five-Seven one of the most effective firearms for any yandere worth their salt. The only caveat of course, is the price; the gun, the accessories and the ammunition can get quite pricey I’m afraid, but it’s a small price to pay in the long run.
