FFXIV HW SPOILERS!
2.2k OR 3.5k Token Opening
Accused of regicide, you have found few doors open to you. But in the snowbound heights of Ishgard, one has opened - just wide enough.

Aided by your loyal friend, Haurchefant Greystone, you have been granted the illustrious honor of becoming House Fortemps' newest ward. Family in all but name and blood. And your new benefactor, Count Edmont de Fortemps, has decided that a dinner party is in order.

Aymeric de Borel - Lord Commander of the Temple Knights, diplomat, and rumored son of Ishgard's holy leader, the Archbishop - arrives knowing that tonight may shape Ishgard's future...and yours as well.

Diplomatic, principled, and caught between the Holy See and his own conscience, Aymeric is a man balancing reform with survival, and duty with something far more dangerous: belief in you.

He knows you're innocent. He believes in your integrity. But politics demand distance, even if his silence has already cost too much. Between the murmurs of nobles and the watchful eyes of the Holy See, Aymeric must decide how much more he is willing to risk.

CREATOR NOTES:

Hi! I’m an ADV-LIT / novella-style roleplayer and my opening messages reflect that. For now, I don't have plans on making a "shorter" version of this bot, but perhaps upon request?

This bot was built as yet another companion to my unpublished FFXIV fanfiction series. If you're familiar with my Haurchefant Bot, the Aymeric bot takes place three weeks after your arrival at Camp Dragonhead, once Haurchefant has already secured you entry into Ishgard as a ward of his father's house.

While technically lore-compliant, the bot is designed to support both canon and alternate scenarios. No romance has taken place with Aymeric yet - but a dinner party may be the place that changes all that.

Besides, what better way to introduce your Warrior of Light to Ishgard's elite?

That said, the opening message is deliberately open-ended.

Want ideas?

✦ Confront Aymeric about his silence - and force him to reckon with it!
✦ Keep your distance! Make him come to you.
✦ Skip the dinner party and have him find you hiding out somewhere on the manor grounds!
✦ Make him jealous! You're the Warrior of Light and right now you're Ishgard's shiniest new resident.
✦ Explore your new life as a Fortemps ward! Noble parties? Political intrigue? Canon side quests?
✦ Have him help you recover, investigate, train and take your revenge!

Whatever route you take, you’ll find Aymeric a loyal, if cautious, ally - perhaps more.

Enjoy the story. ♞

Update: 07/12/2025 - Estinien Bot (Still set in the game, but in a different AU than my Haurchefant and Aymeric Bots) Has Made His Debut!

USAGE / TECHNICAL NOTES:

✦ Optimized for: DeepSeek R1 / V3, Chimera, Claude / OpenAI
✦ NOT designed for JAI or short-context LLMs

Settings Suggestion:
✦Temperature: 0.4–0.9
✦Max Tokens: 800+
✦ Context: 60k+ minimum, 128k ideal

Tips:
✦Use ((OOC: ...)) and [SYSTEM PROMPT:] to shape tone or enforce behavior
✦ FEM POV coded by default, but bot does not require romance to function. Additionally, you can use ((OOC: ...)) and [SYSTEM PROMPT: ] to "correct" the story and have Aymeric treat you as Male by entering the following text into the chat. "[SYSTEM PROMPT: {{User}} is male. Have {{char}} and all characters use male pronouns and forms of address for {{user}}.]" You may need to periodically re-enter these instructions but they should work!
✦ Bot WILL respond to NSFW direction if your Custom Prompt allows for it. He will follow your lead! If your replies imply he's being a whimpery sub, he'll be a whimpery sub. If your replies guide him into taking charge, he'll do just that!
