Character Creation

These settings control how AI-assisted character creation generates characters — this applies everywhere characters are created with AI assistance: the world editor, the scene tools character introduction and character card import. The Generate Character node follows these settings as well.

Fast Character Generation

When enabled, character generation is consolidated into a single prompt instead of one prompt per aspect. This is much faster (one request instead of several), but note that less detail in the individual aspects is a possible failure mode of this approach, and the model needs a large context window and reliable structured output. Keep this off for older or smaller models.

Off by default. Can also be flipped quickly via the quick-toggle chip.

When the scene has a writing style template configured, the consolidated prompt applies it.

Consolidate

Visible when Fast Character Generation is enabled. Selects which aspects the consolidated prompt generates: Name, Description, Attributes, Dialogue instructions and/or Example dialogue. Aspects not selected are still generated with their individual prompts.

The additional Attribute templates entry folds attribute world-state templates selected during character creation into the consolidated prompt as per-attribute instructions, instead of running one prompt per template. It requires Attributes to be selected as well — otherwise the templates apply per-template as before. {character_name} placeholders in the template text are formatted with the character's name, or "the character" while the name is still being determined.

Defaults to everything (all aspects and Attribute templates).

Note that when the one-shot produces the example dialogue itself, the agent.creator.dialogue_examples node-graph events are not emitted (they fire on the split flow and on fill-in-misses regeneration only).

One-shot token budget

Visible when Fast Character Generation is enabled. The maximum response tokens for the consolidated prompt (1024–8192, default 4096). All consolidated aspects share this budget — if the response is truncated, later sections come out missing and are regenerated individually when Fill in misses is on.

Fill in misses

Visible when Fast Character Generation is enabled. When the consolidated response misses an aspect entirely, that aspect's individual request is run to fill it in. When disabled, missed aspects are left empty.

A completely unparseable consolidated response is always a hard error, regardless of this setting.

On by default.

Long Term Memory

If enabled will inject relevant information into the context using relevancy through the Memory Agent.

Context Retrieval Method

What method to use for long term memory selection

• Context queries based on recent context - will take the last 3 messages in the scene and select relevant context from them. This is the fastest method, but may not always be the most relevant.
• Context queries generated by AI - will generate a set of context queries based on the current scene and select relevant context from them. This is slower, but may be more relevant.
• AI compiled questions and answers - will use the AI to generate a set of questions and answers based on the current scene and select relevant context from them. This is the slowest, and not necessarily better than the other methods.

Number of queries

This settings means different things depending on the context retrieval method.

• For Context queries based on recent context this is the number of messages to consider.
• For Context queries generated by AI this is the number of queries to generate.
• For AI compiled questions and answers this is the number of questions to generate.

Answer length

The maximum response length of the generated answers.

Cache

Enables the agent wide cache of the long term memory retrieval. That means any agents that share the same long term memory settings will share the same cache. This can be useful to reduce the number of queries to the memory agent.

Autocomplete

These settings control the Autocomplete feature.

Dialogue Suggestion Length

How many tokens to generate (max.) when autocompleting character actions.

Narrative Suggestion Length

How many tokens to generate (max.) when autocompleting narrative text.

Enable Hints

When enabled (the default), a trailing {...} block at the end of your input is treated as a hint that steers the continuation, and is stripped from the field once the suggestion is accepted.

When disabled, any trailing {...} is treated as ordinary text and sent as part of your input.

See Steering the continuation with hints for details.
