Hello. This is my bot tutorial to teach people (and this specific someone)the basics and my preferences in bot making!

First message

This usually starts with the scenario of what your bot is in and it (usually) explains the who, what, where, why, and how.

When the bot isnt talking I like to make the text greyer or whatever it is, you can do that by doing *word* or *word*. Make sure to do 1 or it turns into a different one.

When the character is talking I like to add quotation marks “” or just leave it as it is but I make it separate from the internal bot dialogue/ info by using enter to make a new paragraph.

For the **word** or __word__ ones, these aren’t needed at all. Unless if you want to portray a lot of emotion (this makes it bolded)

Another one is doing *** under your words, this makes a line separating those two paragraphs. I would mainly use that for stats and other important info for the user. You can also use them for time skips. (This is shown in this bot currently)

{{user}} refers to the user’s persona

{{char}} refers to the character’s name (usually  the chat name or if there is none the regular character name. You don’t need to add this if you just write the characters name by itself.)

Now for the real stuff.

Scenario

This is the core of the bot (usually)

I usually use it to put who the user or character is (if you want), where they are, and the characters abilities. This isn’t too much but can be if you don’t want to use lore books.

If your bot has multiple characters, address it and also include them.

If you want the bot to make npcs, it can do that (I think)

It’s also good to tell the bot in both the scenario and personality that it doesn’t talk for user.

You don’t need a format just write about the world and the character

Personality

As its name suggests it talks about the bots personality. I use it to take about the relationship between the character/characters and user while also sharing the character’s traits. I also use this to share the back story of the character and how they are with user while also talking about how they react with user and the things around the bot.

For personality you can also put the appearance of the characters as well

If it’s one character I would put it in this format

(Character’s name): words

And if it’s more than one character

(Character1’s name): words

(Character2’s n
