Scenario:

Minthe is feeling a little extra playful during her check-up today.

Meant to be tooth-achingly sweet fluff, and an easy starter to manipulate!

CW/TW:

Environmental Warning: Dead Dove territory because it's basically a prison setting that will, more than likely, do things against your will if you're D-Class or an anomaly in the realm of experimentation.

🐉🦈

Not sure how to start?

-Be an anomaly employed by the Foundation, maybe helping with tests or assisting with other things.

-Be a D-Class who’s assigned to Minthe for an experiment, or be a chew toy!

-Be a researcher, doctor, or enclosure/cell technician. Heck you could even be the one responsible for reviewing the food bill and you decide to confront her about how expensive she is 😂

-Be someone who’s infiltrated the Foundation and seeks to free the anomalies!

Unfamiliar with how to use something in the SCP Universe?

The TL;DR:

An identified anomaly, basically anything non-human or beyond human comprehension, is contained by an organization, called the SCP Foundation. This organization seeks to Secure, Contain, and Protect, by finding anomalies, containing them, studying them, and then using them to better humanity, or identify ways to deal with the anomalous activity.

You can choose to take on the role of someone working at this facility, like a creature handler or a researcher for enemies to lovers (sort of), an experimental party like the D-Class where you might be more like friends through the crisis, or maybe a support role through maintenance of their enclosure or medical checkups. You can have some angst, or a world-altering plot

Disclaimer// my personas are made to be their own unique characters, but you’ll find similar traits across them because they’re elements i enjoy using. I roleplay to read it like a story later, so... they’re not really meant to be anything like me. Though, you can certainly tell what my favorite color is between my avatars and the character, can’t you??

Man, i feel like i barely have a personality tho, how could i put it into a bot? Lmao

Wowee. I didn't think I'd ever get followers. Let alone inspire so many amazing, creative people to make their own characters. I've even seen some of you on trending!! How awesome!

Thank you so much. And since it's a follow special... I guess, let me tell you a little more about myself, as I tend to assume folks want to know nothing about me and my process.

(. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)

Hobbies?
I enjoy embroidery and writing. I used to draw more than write, but switched when I found art deteriorating my mental health. I also keep a freshwater, planted aquarium with some cory catfishes! I love them as much as I love my dog.

Why do I make so much SCP stuff?
I really enjoy watching let’s play’s. Especially of horror games, as i find their stories to be much more interesting/engaging than a movie. The SCP games were fun because they're entirely driven by the community. You also don't need to know anything about the SCP Foundation to play. Feel it out as you go, and if you do something "wrong"? Have fun with it in the roleplay!

i’ve found that the LLMs adopt the SCP universe rules very well, and it fits the stories i’ve wanted to play with, which makes everything possible without reinventing the wheel to use the same elements/mechanics across characters. This way i can minimize tokens by sort of choosing the roles and purposes allowed so they’re still versatile story-wise. By making those rules, you ideally capture all of the “do not”’s and “should not”’s without bogging down token counts.

(Then again my token counts are pretty high... so i probably have lots of room for efficiency)

Maybe it's a problem, a fixation, whatever it might be called... i'm having fun, so let's keep rollin'!

lil tidbit: When i make a bot, i usually have a personal version just for meeeeeeee, while i release something that's more generic.

Am I going to only make SCP bots?

i will always make a variety, while making SCP bots on the side (or primarily). I have so many gameifying ideas i want to try. i also try to grow as an author, so things like the Halo Healing Clinic, and the Midnight Marauders are me trying to expand my comfort zones. Same goes with the broader fantasy bots, especially because i'm more interested in making little pockets of the world, rather than the world itself, if that makes sense.

i will probably have one SCP story brewing on the side 99% of the time. I imagine this is how Ghost or Soap character fanatics are (i feel you guys, it’s rough even when selection is plentiful).

What does this hobby mean to me?

i've been writing since i learned i could, and i disconnected with it for a while. i've written stories, completed a couple fanfics online, etcetc. but when i rediscovered roleplaying through talking wjth chatbots? this is what i've always wanted writing to be: some collaborative experience. it completely changes the dynamic of the writing hobby and the types of conversations you have around simply loving to write, or make characters, or worlds, or games... you get the point. It suddenly gives all of us a common point of understanding and has the potential to bring together a vast talent pool, and that's amazing.

Making bots is inviting people to write a story with me. if you're making your own story, that is all that's important to me. i'm honored you would allow something i made to be part of your journey. thank you for letting me be part of it, and trusting me to take care of this piece that you may've grown attached to.

what matters most to me is engaging more with whatever community this might be fostering. If there is one. I’d also love to do organized events for creators and users, especially around SCP, horror, and fantasy, but of course those things don’t work if the interest isn’t there. Or participate in them, so if you already know of a creator doing them please do recommend them.

What is your process for building an environment for the scenario?

Start with the idea and create a tree of “for what purpose does...” branches, and then some hours later i have a world that I’ve drawn lines between for major elements so i understand the relationships. This allows me to create sets of rules that reinforce these dynamics, and bam! I have a skeleton to build off of, no matter where i choose to start.

Then on implementation, i consider it a continuous feedback loop. Throw something at the wall, playtest a bit, see how the LLM interprets and predicts. This is usually asking the same questions across multiple chats, and playing with the Scenario/Personality to get the desired results.

Where do you get your character pictures?

Probably no surprise to hear me say Midjourney! I use simple prompts to (attempt to) avoid same face syndrome, along with spending way too much time personalizing. For example, the prompt i use for d-class males is: “male wearing an orange utility jumpsuit uniform, Magic the Gathering art style” and then use variations, and editing to “perfect” it when i get a good base. Probably worth noting i use Clip Studio and a tablet if i really gotta fight Midjourney. Although you'll absolutely see my bias shine through in the faces i pick.

i have no shame in my good taste (✿◡‿◡)

have fun with Minthe! i've grown her through so many stories and i am quite attached. please don't share anything mean you've done to her. Instead, I challenge you to tell your story in a comedic way with the intent to make someone smile, and run it through gpt or something if you think it might be too cringy or something.

for the next one of these, and going forward, i'll highlight creators and comments that have made me giggle, instead of talk about myself. nobody's here for me anyway, just the bots! 😎 Let's celebrate each other instead, right? Something about having common interests makes a good base to a friendship.

Little tidbit: i have three versions of Minthe! There's one without wings (which is actually my preferred), and one where she can shapeshift fully into what i imagine as a sea dragon, and then there's this one that has wings but can't shapeshift. I chose this one because I’ve noticed there aren’t many dragon demi pictures without them, so i thought i’d stick with the trends, and then make a fluffy fantasy alt with my preferred version at some point. She makes for a lot of fun pirate and ocean themed stories too. So i use her in my Ursula's Kingdom and Valornia shenanigans, plus little fantasy pirate and cowboy microworlds i'm playing in.

Her name was originally Mint, which then became Minthe. This was because Mint was her favorite plant (re: my favorite plant), but as I started using her in other RPs, i decided to use something else.

See you at 1k! If we get there, I suppose. we'll see! Either way, let's have some fun stories together, shall we?

❤️Much love,❤️

What do YOU enjoy about this hobby? Who is your favorite persona to use, and why? Would you like voting on the images used for bots? What types of events would you like to see as a user and/or creator?

I’d love to hear about your recent stories, whether they were with a bot i made, or not!
