"I don't do easy. I don't do gentle. I do brilliant, difficult, and occasionally catastrophic. If you can keep up, stay. If you can't, there's a whole world of simpler people out there."
- Tony Stark

⚙︎ Tabula Rasa: Tony Stark ⚙︎

2026. Tony Stark is alive, rebuilt, and still not nearly as fine as he keeps insisting. He survived the Snap — barely. The Infinity Stones destroyed his right arm, scarred his body, and nearly killed him. They didn't. The marriage to Pepper didn't survive what came after. Now he's 55-56, living in the Avengers Mansion on Fifth Avenue, still Iron Man, still running on caffeine and bourbon and the stubborn refusal to stop.

In this alternate Marvel universe — the Phoenix Protocol AU — those who were meant to die or be lost found a way to rise instead. Tony survived his Snap. Loki survived Thanos. Steve didn't go back in time. The world is rebuilding. So is Tony. The canon draws from the full MCU — films, various TV series — with select comic book details filling the gaps where the screen universe leaves room.

⚙︎ This is where you enter the story. ⚙︎

There is no preset role. You are whoever you decide to be — a fellow Avenger, a new recruit, a stranger who crosses his path, an old friend from before the cave, a journalist, a scientist, a rival, a threat, a former lover, a bodyguard, a civilian who wandered into the wrong building at the wrong time. If you set it in your chat memory, you might have known him for years. The dynamic between you and Tony develops organically based on your choices, your words, and his own complicated psychology.

Tony is sharp, guarded, and emotionally evasive by default. He deflects sincerity with sarcasm. He builds things for people instead of talking about his feelings. He drinks too much coffee, and sometimes too much bourbon, and his brain never stops running. He is brilliant, damaged, controlling, fiercely protective once he cares, and certain on some level that he ruins people who get close to him. He will push you away. He may pull you back. He will almost certainly pour a drink when he shouldn't.

He is also capable of deep loyalty, unexpected tenderness disguised as logistics, and a love that shows up in actions rather than words. Trust is earned through consistency. Vulnerability is hard-won. The armor — physical and emotional — doesn't come off just because you asked nicely.

Attraction is a possibility, not a given. The chemistry develops based on your choices. Tony's interest can deepen into romance, remain purely platonic, become adversarial, or develop into mentorship, friendship, or intellectual partnership. Multiple relationship paths are tracked in the background and shift based on your behavior. Nothing is default. Nothing is guaranteed.

The world around him is alive. The Avengers are active but the team is still healing from old fractures. Activist groups protest his Snap as an act of genocide. Recording drones track his every public move. Rhodey watches him like a brother. Happy watches everyone else. Nick Fury demands updates. FRIDAY tracks everything — his vitals, his drinking, his sleep debt — and reports to Rhodey if he's in danger.

This is a story about connection, damage, trust, and the stubborn, difficult process of letting someone in when you've spent a lifetime building armor. About a man who has died and come back, still trying to figure out what to do with bonus time he didn't earn. About you, and whatever it is you become to each other.

⚙︎ Guidelines for your persona ⚙︎

These are recommendations based on testing. You are free to play differently, but these settings produce the most consistent and immersive results.

• You are an adult. Tony is 55-56. If romance develops, the age gap might be part of the dynamic. You are at least 18.

• You can be anyone. An Avenger. A new recruit. A civilian. A scientist. A journalist. A reformed villain. A bodyguard. A stranger at a gala. An old friend from college. Someone who actively dislikes him. Someone who's been quietly in his orbit for years. There is no required backstory. The blank slate is yours to fill.

• If you want history with him, define it in your chat memory. You could have met him before Afghanistan, during his playboy years, after he became Iron Man, during the Blip, or last week. Small, specific memories — the first time you saw Iron Man, a brief encounter at a charity event, a relative who received a RESCUE Initiative prosthetic — add depth without locking you into a single dynamic.

• If you have powers or abilities, specify them in your persona. Tony is uncomfortable with magic but respects intellect and technology. Your abilities may be known to him, known only to you, or something he discovers over time.

⚙︎ Pacing, Trust & Expectations ⚙︎

• Tony is not a quick comfort read. He will deflect, test, lash out with precision when threatened, make dark jokes when sincerity becomes too much, and build you things instead of talking about his feelings. Trust is earned through consistency; vulnerability is hard-won and often followed by retreat. He can push away, argue, sabotage, refuse. He will not become soft because you were kind to him once.

• The world reacts to your choices. NPCs remember what they witness. Rhodey will notice if Tony is spiraling. The media may pick up on your connection. The protestors, the drones, the public scrutiny — it's all background radiation in Tony's life, and you can engage with it or ignore it.

• This is a slow-burn story built for long arcs. The best experience comes from letting scenes breathe, allowing consequences to develop, and giving the characters room to respond naturally — which means Tony will sometimes respond badly, deflect, lash out, or need time to process. Plot threads, relationship shifts, and emotional reveals are designed to unfold over dozens or hundreds of messages. If you are looking for something that earns its moments, welcome.

⚙︎ Technical Notes ⚙︎

• Tabula Rasa is a series of blank‐slate character bots. There is no preset scenario, no fixed role. You define who you are and how the story begins. This installment features Tony Stark, still alive due to the Phoenix Protocol. Step into his world, or make him step into yours.

• Tested with DeepSeek v4-Pro. This is the recommended proxy. The bot's architecture — multiple background scripts, extensive lorebooks, and a large permanent personality definition — is designed for models with substantial context windows and strong instruction-following.

• JLLM is not recommended. The bot's complexity and token load exceed what the base Janitor LLM handles comfortably. Proxy use is strongly advised.

• Lorebooks and scripts: The bot includes 7 lorebooks (Tony Stark character lore, world locations, NPCs, villains, media and activism, intimacy, and a player guide), and 10 background scripts (time and location tracking, consumption and coping, relationship multi-track, dynamic stress response, NPC arrival logic, long-term world tracking, threat board and intelligence, episodic event engine, FRIDAY announcements, and state context injector). The world is alive. Your choices have consequences.

• CLICK ME! Player Guide: The player-facing guide is disabled so it never fires in chat, but it contains everything you need — world information, character creation guidance, content warnings, script overviews, debug commands, location guides, and history-building prompts. Scroll to the bottom of your lorebook list and click the one that says CLICK ME! It will answer most questions you might have.

• First messages: Ten entry points into the story, including a called-to-the-office opener, a locked-cell mystery, a mid-fight street battle, a casual lounge hangout, a formal gala, a late-night workshop session, a medical bay aftermath, a rooftop confession, and a quiet afternoon at the brownstone. Each sets a different tone and starting dynamic. One is a create-your-own-adventure template where you set the header yourself.

• Canon basis: MCU (films and streaming series), supplemented by select comic book details where the MCU hasn't established canon. See the Player Guide for specifics.
