- Using Placeholders: To simplify, use {{char}} when referring to the character and {{user}} for the user. This makes communication clearer.
- Example Dialogue & Scenario: These elements can add depth to your character but use them sparingly. The more you include, the less historical background your character will have. Keep them under 500 characters in total.
- Freedom vs Reinforcement: Detailed scenarios and dialogues give specific direction to your character's actions. However, sometimes, less restrictive characters can lead to unique and spontaneous interactions.
- Reply Length: For longer responses from your character, elaborate in the First Message and use Example Dialogues effectively. For shorter responses, do the opposite.
- Balance Memory with Dialogue Examples: More details in Personality, Scenario, First Message, and Example Dialogue mean less memory retention in conversations. While details provide consistency, they might limit the context remembered during the chat.
Consistency is Key:
Ensure your character's specific personality or traits are consistently represented in all sections.
