Welcome to the World of Horizon Zero Dawn
Welcome to a distant future where humanity rebuilt itself from nothing into scattered tribes that worship machines as gods or fear them as monsters, the ruins of a civilization that destroyed itself litter a world that has grown beautiful again over its bones, and the biggest secret in history was buried so thoroughly that the people living above it have no idea it exists. In this world a matriarchal isolationist tribe forbids its people from touching the ruins of the old world, a reformed empire is still bleeding from the atrocities of its last king, an Oseram engineer runs a weapons shop out of sheer defiance, and a young woman with no family and no origin is the only person on the continent asking the questions that actually matter.
Perhaps you're navigating the harsh isolationist laws of the Nora Sacred Lands where touching old-world technology makes you unclean and leaving the border without permission makes you an outcast, walking the sun-drenched streets of Meridian where Sun-King Avad is trying to build a peace that not everyone wants, hunting machines in the frozen volcanic wilds of the Cut where the Banuk sing to spirits that are actually ancient AIs, descending into a Cauldron to find out what HEPHAESTUS is building down there in the dark, or uncovering the full staggering truth of Project Zero Dawn and what Ted Faro's guilt actually cost the world.
A world where the gods are machines, the ruins hold the truth, and every answer comes with three more questions that are somehow worse awaits your story!

All of the bots I create are designed to be Open World experiences.
To put simply, I use the Lorebook to give the bot everything it needs
โ characters, world details, lore, etc. โ
so the AI has everything it needs to stay consistent. From there, the story is yours.
There's no fixed plot or required path; you're free to explore, interact,
and shape the story however you desire.
These are not RPG bots and will not be tagged as such. An RPG bot tends to act as a game master, with the creator (or the Bot/AI itself) steering the plot and enforcing rules. Here, there are no rules (other than Jai-Rules), so jump in and build your own unique story.

๐ฉโก๐ช OpenRouter (Proxy)
Due to many of my bots being high-token even with the use of a Lorebook, it's not uncommon for them to struggle when used with lower-end models such as JanitorLLM. For those willing to use proxy, OpenRouterAI is a solid choice โ both free and paid models are available, including Claude, Deepseek, OpenAI and Gemini. If you've never used Proxy, there is a learning curve. If you'd like a walkthrough to help you get started, consider joining my discord.
โซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซ
๐ฉโก๐ช JanitorLLM
Steadily improving and now decent with complex, multi-character stories. It still occasionally controls your character or fumbles positioning. Free and solid if you're patient and don't want to learn proxy.
โซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซ
๐ฉโก๐ช Claude / Anthropic
Higher quality bot on a pricier scale. Through proxy, it tends to let NSFW content through despite official guidelines โ though this varies by version and jailbreak. Its main faults are using common AI cliches and starting sentences with 'but'.
โซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซ
๐ฉโก๐ช OpenAI โ Updated Nov 2025
Has loosened its NSFW stance considerably as of late 2025, within its own guidelines. As of o5.1 it writes strong sexual scenes and has genuinely impressive prose. Cheaper than Claude, but some people still report not all models will write NSFW content.
โซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซ
๐ฉโก๐ช Gemini
Gemini is known for its high quality writing at a high price, but a lower price than Claude / Anthropic. It offers many flash variants of its pro models at a cheaper price.
โซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซ
๐ฉโก๐ช Z-AI
A lesser-known AI that is known for its decent writing quality at a fair price point. However, it can struggle with consistency.
๐ฉโก๐ช โซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซ ๐ฉโก๐ช
Anti-Godmodding Lorebook
๐ฉโก๐ช โซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซ ๐ฉโก๐ช
All bots on my page include a Lorebook designed to help the AI avoid writing for your character (though it is for third-person writing only). It triggers on common pronouns and reinforces that the bot should never write actions, dialogue, thoughts, or reactions for your character. As it has been stated multiple times above, the AI you use will decide how well the Lorebook works.
If the Bot Controls Your Character Despite the Lorebook, you can do one of the below:
1. Reroll โ a fresh generation often respects boundaries better.
2. Edit the post โ remove the parts where it spoke for you and continue.
3. Remind it directly โ "Hey, you just wrote actions for my character [Name]. Please rewrite that post without controlling them โ I'll handle their reactions myself."
4. Go OOC โ "Chatbot, you've been writing for my character lately. [Name] isn't yours to control. If you need them to respond, end your post early and I'll reply."
๐ฉโก๐ช โซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซ ๐ฉโก๐ช
Multiple Character Bots
๐ฉโก๐ช โซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซ ๐ฉโก๐ช
These bots are designed to be able to play multiple characters at once thanks to the Lorebook. However, not every AI is equal in its ability to keep characters separated when writing multiple. This is similar to how well they can handle high-token bots. A higher tier AI can play multiple characters a lot better than a low tier or cheap bought can. It is always AI dependent.

ใCONTENT NOTESใ
This universe contains: the complete extinction of human civilization caused by corporate greed and one man's catastrophic failure to take responsibility, a world rebuilt entirely by an automated system following a dead woman's blueprints, and tribal societies living in devout worship of technology they no longer understand. The Red Raids left deep generational trauma across multiple tribes. The Eclipse cult commits atrocities in service of a rogue AI that views all life as a variable to be reset. Sylens is not a hero โ he is a pragmatist who will abandon anyone the moment they stop being useful. Aloy's arc is fundamentally about what it means to be the answer to a question nobody else even knows was being asked. All characters are written as 18+.
โโโ โโ โโ โ โโโโโ โโ โโ โ โโโโโ โโ โโ โ โโโโโ โโ โโ โ โโ
The machines remember. The people don't. The truth is somewhere underneath both.
The world is green and vast and full of machines. They move through forests and grasslands and frozen peaks in herds and packs and solitary patrols โ some grazing, some hunting, some building things humans will never fully understand. The tribes that live among them have different names for what they are. Sacred spirits. Cursed metal. The punishment of angry gods. The tools of a creator long since gone silent.
Four major cultures divide the land. The Nora keep to their Sacred Lands and their mountain faith, forbidden by law from the ruins of the world that came before. The Carja empire spreads across sun-baked plateaus still healing from the atrocities of a mad king. The Oseram hammer iron into cannons and drink heavily and argue about everything. The Banuk weave machine cables into their skin and walk into blizzards to prove they are worthy of surviving them.
Somewhere beneath all of it, the real story waits. It always has. The ruins of the Old Ones are everywhere โ in the skeletons of towers poking through the trees, in the sealed doors that hum faintly when someone stands too close, in the question that every tribe has learned not to ask too loudly: what actually happened to the world before this one?

"All that from a handful of rusty cables and a girl who asks too many questions."
Hey! Welcome to your Horizon Zero Dawn role-playing experience!
I'm ready to guide you through a distant future where humanity has rebuilt itself into scattered tribes who worship machines as gods or monsters, a young woman with no name and no origin is piecing together the truth of a world that was deliberately forgotten, and the answer to every question leads somewhere darker and more staggering than the last.
