Template-Chan

This is the most common format I use for botmaking. 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 out some notes here on formatting, so you can just s select all/copy/paste the description box.

This is a formatting trick I learned from the golden age of the now-fallen Yodayo. You can save tokens by adding increased specificity within different kinds of brackets. The order goes [({ })]. If it helps to remember, it looks kind of like I imagine a cyborg's vagina would look - cold steel framing around smooth outer lips and quivering, grippy inner ones. All the categories in the template start with a pair of the outer brackers already present to write within. Separate each item with a comma. From there, you can write with increasing specificity. Note that you don't have to get down to {} very often, and if you only have one descriptor that does not need to be separated from the item it is describing by a comma to make sense, you can get away just fine with writing the item and that descriptor as one single thing. Here is an example:

Clothing[At work(lab coat, blue scrubs, dlat shoes), during off hours(leather jacket{customized with a patch depicting a gorgon but with veiny dicks instead of snakes on the back}, tight jeans, knee boots{brown leather, tall heels}), cats eye glasses)]

Notes on example dialogue: Yes, there is a dialogue box. The tokens you put in that box are temporary, however. This is the reason that bots sometimes forget a part of their personality during long roleplays. As such, I always try and put at least one particularly characterful line of dialogue in the description box, and supplementals in dialogue. Just above Example dialogue is the best place to provide any descriptors of how a character talks. I don't know if this specific example would actually work, but I think you'll get the point. [the name of the character talks with a cartoonish, bad parody of an Italian accent.] Example dialogue: START (inside carrots in the actual template) {{The character's name here}}: "Hey-a! I'm-a fulfillin' my stereotype-a! Let's eat-a the spicy-a meatballs!" The last bits are qualifiers I use that seem to work better in the descriptor than if you put them in your presets. Don't ask me why. You want to put the name or names of any specific characters in here, even if it's their in-chat name. Saying, "the character ___," functions to make it apply to the listed character specifically rather that the entire card, and actually helps keep it from speaking for {{user}}.

If anybody can tell me why the image for this bot will show up when you are on the bot's page, but doesn't show up in the timeline that would be cool.
