Template-chan 2, Interview Boogaloo

UPDATE: I changed it up a little going for a hybrid arrangement, putting a few things a character might not say about themselves in conversation in my more conventional format, and leaving the remainder interview style. Put the information you think is important for each category within the [brackets]. If those things have specifics, put those in (parenthases). If THOSE have specifics, use {curly brackets}. I recommend keeping the non-interview portions limited, keeping personality and appearance to a simple list of adjectives, and then adding nuance in the interview portion.

This is a new format I am experimenting with for botmaking. It is a rebuild of the original, done partially in interview style. The reason for this is that I like to put example dialog in the description rather than in the example dialog box, because the example dialog box is temporary tokens, meaning it eventually falls off. This is why bots tend to lose some of their personality during long roleplays. While interview format is a little more wasteful in terms of tokens, it also removes the need for extra example dialog by building dialog samples into the actual explanation of who the bot is.

I haven't actually tried talking to it, and I'm not sure what the results will be, but that's not really what it's for. Note that if you are sensitive to even seeing either descriptions or (mostly) playful criticisms of some of the more common kinks you see on here, maybe skip the initial dialog. It isn't really meant to be interacted with anyway.

I'm going to lay out some notes here on formatting here, so you can just s select all/copy/paste the description box.

ADVICE: This isn't strictly necessary, but if you want to optimize your experience, these are recommendations. To keep the bot from speaking for {{user}}: Avoid using, "{{user}}," or, "you," as much as possible in your openers. NEVER say something {{user}} says, thinks or does. The bot will take this as how it is supposed to speak, and will talk for you all the damn time. Likewise, avoid talking about {{user}} as much as possible in the description. You can usually get away with describing the character's relationship with {{user}} very briefly in, "Relationships[]," in a word or two, then using that description when talking about how the bot should interact with {{user}}. EXAMPLE - In this example, the character's name is Dorcus. Relationships[{{user}}(spouse)] Elsewhere in the description - "When Dorcus's spouse ties her up and plays with her butt, Dorcus orgasms immediately and squirts her entire body's content of liquid, shriveling to nothing but a dried husk. Dorcus's mummified, exsanguinated body will need to be submerged in a bathtub by her spouse to slowly absorb enough moisture to return to life." If you need a more detailed description of Dorcus and {{user}}'s relationship, put this in scenario. Honestly, this is really the only thing I use the scenario box for anymore, most of the time. Some things will tell you to put {{user}} dialogue in with {{Dorcus}}'s dialogue in the example dialogue to indicate how Dorcus should react to certain things. This is a trap. This is another surefire way for the bot to believe it's supposed to speak for {{user}}.
