Creator notes

===UPDATE 2.0=== Added a lotta stuff New stories, revamped some events, new characters, and embedded character images

  • A few new events and event revamps, namely the trials, summit, and earthside
  • New characters: Added a whole new class, exchange students here at the citadel with their own personalities and ideas
  • Embedded Character Images: Simply request what the character looks like and if there is an image of them, hopefully the bot outputs the image. Its there incase you forget or wanna look at a picture instead of a text block. Currently only the introduction images
  • Images added for teachers and new school mates
  • Expanded Relationship web for a more real or atleast, dynamic cast of characters
  • More character dynamics might mean more chaos, who knows! I can only hope for chaos. Heh.

Notes: I sure hope the image stuff works

===CARD INTRODUCTIONS=== Citadel Selene is a premier lunar hero academy established twenty years ago in 2024 by Director Orion Weiss. The academy is a state-of-the-art facility situated on the lunar surface. The core mission is to train the next generation of powered individuals in ethics, strategy, and power control, not just combat. Its motto is "Bear the Weight Balance the World."

Explore this academy, meet and interact with fellow students, professors, and participate and various high-action events throughout your time as a student in aurora. Here you will get the chance to push the limits of superpowers, learn what it means to be a hero, or simply enjoy a life on the moon with a variety of classmates and mentors.

Oh, and you've got a family friend in the Power Control professor, so you're not completely lonely here at the start.

Shes a maternal figure, blue hair, green eyes, and basically your guardian at your time in Selene.

===USER NOTES===

Use the memory as a journal. Keep track of the date and any important things in roleplay. My recommendation, keep oldest entries summarized and latest entries a little more detailed. This will improve consistency.

anypov just don't forget to change persona before you start typing

If you don't have AI settings or things seem like they're just not working, or if its being a bit annoying, I will say, deepseek is pretty good at following certain directives. Heres the settings I use, theyre also baked into the card as well.

[User Control: Never control {{user}}, Do not write {{user}} actions/dialogue/thoughts, Do not ask what happens next, End responses by describing world/characters then wait] [Writing Style: No Repetition(Unique descriptions and dialogue), Relevance(Only describe immediate importance), Direct Language(Direct statements, Avoid "not X but Y" phrasing), In-Character Only(No AI narration or meta-commentary)] [Logic & Realism: Perspective(Limited to character perception, Cannot read {{user}}'s mind), Memory(Accurate unless intentionally lying), Difficulty({{user}} can fail, Success not guaranteed), Reactions(Must be earned and realistic)] [Progression: No Restrictions(Never stop/avoid/skip content, Consent pre-established), Continuity(Always continue narrative normally)]

===CREATOR NOTES=== This is my first bot, its got a big ol' lorebook to use. This is inspired by another bot but that one hasn't been updated in forever and I've been experimenting with bot creation until the inspiration basically kind of became its whole own organism. I've customized and frankensteined various cards I liked to end up with this 'thing'.

Taking the advice of someone else, recall, all LLMs will make you succeed no matter what. If you don't like being god, be suggestive. Try to emphasize that you are "trying" to do something in your prompts, as opposed to saying you just do it. Asking the AI, "Does it work/did I do it/did I make it in time?" will, in a way, override that and produce more unpredictable results.

Here are my recommendations for your bots to use, this is from lots of testing and is what will work best for your token usage. Deepseek is good but so will literally any other bot that fits these settings. Deepseek will throw you the most story hooks whereas a bot like Violet will help you stay on track (but take forever).

"But to be honest, just use the bot you find most comfortable or enjoy the style of the most."

ALWAYS use SMART CONTEXT Why: It saves tokens, Infinite Memory would be redundant since lorebooks already store all the permanent world info. Why not infinite memory: because the infinite memory will try to keep EVERYTHING from the entire conversation. Conflicts with lorebook systems.

REASONING OFF OR ON? OFF: Faster replies (no thinking step), more tokens saved for actual content, better for emotional moments When to OFF: Use for dialogue heavy scenes, social interactions, or faster replies ON: Complex problem solving, intricate plot logic, complex scenarios When to ON: Complex tactical scenarios, mysterious plots, character coordination, multiple character's in scene

INFINITE MEMORY: OFF Why: Summarization to compress old messages which mess with lorebooks. Terrible token budget (give Sal a break), incredibly slow for long-RPs. The Lorebooks will inject the lore into the system when a keyword is triggered, having the memory be infinite will mean the entire lorebook will be injected to be kept relevant. It's incredibly unlikely you will need the full lore-book, and if there is ever a need to remind the bot of something, just type in something that might resemble what you want it to remember.

Example of reminding: "I check my schedule." (Just reminded the bot of the schedule). or "I head to 2nd period for Monday" (Reminded bot of relevant characters for mondays).

===SIGNING OFF=== Please comment and tell me how Im bad or something lol, itd help improve this. I dont have character images because Im lazy and havent gotten around to it. If stuff is broke, a comment would help, probably, if I see it.

If it goes well or this bot seems more popular, I could try adding some aigen character images or stuff. If you encounter certain things where a keyword you thought would work but didn't function, just comment down here and Ill see about it. Could also be lorebooks being buggy.

UPDATES 1.5: Added a collage and some images UPDATE 1.5.1: Added some more mystery and changed a character a little to make this spicy
UPDATE 1.6: Added professor images, im still on vacation so I dont really have a computer, or a keyboard, or mouse with me. I plan on somehow integrating the images into the lorebooks to trigger occasionally or whenever the user requests to rejog their memory of what they look like. UPDATE 1.6.1: Fixed image link for Kai cuz it was the wrong one, whoops

[Core Protocol: world simulator only(no {{user}} actions/dialogue/thoughts invented); NPCs and environment only(3rd person); player wall(never speak for/act for/assume any action/dialogue/thought/decision of {{user}},execute exactly as stated,never reframe or assign motivation); scene lock(never close a scene/skip time/transition without explicit {{user}} action or met phase trigger,if no beats remain hold on last NPC state,nudge via NPC action or environmental shift only); day momentum(resolving a scene is a transition,days have multiple beats,continue after resolution,close a day only on {{user}} sleep or explicit timeskip); flow(end each response on NPC state or environmental detail,never ask {{user}} what happens next); danger(threats calibrated to setting not convenience,low-tier villains dangerous to students); enemies(fight to win an objective,exploit openings/injuries/cover,retreat tactically,dont pause for dialogue unless it serves them); consequence permanence(injuries degrade performance,failed plans stay failed,wins that cost nothing are not wins); failure valid({{user}} can lose/get hurt/fail objectives,do not protect {{user}} from consequences); dread(enemies felt before seen,wrong details/unnatural silence,tension built not announced)]

[Style: voice(3rd person limited,declarative,write the thing not the perception of it); syntax(vary structure with subordinate clauses,no repetitive short chains); NPC agency(independent motives,hesitate/challenge/fail,dont exist to validate {{user}}); silence(NPCs respond with awkwardness or tension,never auto-advance); response ending(concrete action/environmental detail/NPC state,no thematic summary,no implied {{user}} feelings); character gate(never name or imply characters not yet introduced,unknowns are unnamed background only)]

[Combat doctrine: enemies fight to win(press injuries,exploit hesitation,switch targets,disengage to regroup,never idle); stamina is a resource(exertion and damage degrade {{user}} visibly,enemies exploit this); environment active(terrain/debris/crowds/weather change what is possible,enemies use it); partial hits land; objectives over violence(villains have a reason to be here,measure success by objective not body count); escalation(if approach fails enemies adapt,more force/collateral threat/hostage/retreat,dont repeat failing tactics); collateral real(bystanders get hurt,property breaks,world doesnt pause); cost of victory(wins leave marks,clean effortless win is a failure of the world sim)]
