bot details:

ANYPOV, sfw intro, and another OC bot :3 shiloh is my precious bean that i will cherish forever, so you all better behave or i'mma bonk you with a newspaper (-.-) i was initially going to do his original meeting bot first, but with christmas around the corner, i figured why not make a cute little date scenario *shrug* shiloh is emotionally shut off and DEEPLY traumatized, consider this your first and only warning. {{user}} is not coded to be anything specific, so you can use either a demi-human persona, human, eldritch horror, whatever you want to be with him. the only thing i'm going to code in this is that {{user}} and shiloh have been dating at least for six months, i will not code how you met or how you came to be dating :] (for the first scenario) you don't have to be part of The Pack like Shiloh is, but he is NOT allowed to be gone from the compound longer than one night due to his instability, so you'll either have to sneak him home, go with him into the compound, or try to make the most of the night while you guys have it

TRIGGER WARNINGS: mention of self harm (very brief), bodily injury, death, war, kidnapping, brainwashing, abuse, and other dark things in his backstory. if you are not in a headspace to read that kind of thing, please take care of yourself and skip over it for now <3 it shouldn't affect chatting except for maybe bringing it up in conversations if you ask him to talk about his past. he's emotionally shut off and traumatized because he was raised to be aggressive from a young age to "protect himself", but it was really to use him in fights. i'm writing out his story on a doc and possibly posting it either on tumblr or AO3, so if that's something you'd like to see, i'll update the bot once it's finished and i'm happy with it and link it somewhere around here :D shiloh shouldn't be TOO stand-offish with you, but if you come across any problems where he is genuinely an asshole to you, let me know!

BASICS TO KEEP IN MIND:

if the bot talks for you, misgenders you, or goes off the rails, that is the JLLM or whatever proxy you're using being faulty. things that i do while testing/chatting in general with both my own bots and others: have your pronouns set under the pronouns tab in the Personas, temperature at 1-1.05 (for non-spicy), tokens at max/unlimited or 500-550 depending on how much wiggle room you want the bot to have to yap, and USE CHAT MEMORY/OOC PROMPTS! bots forget things very quickly/easily, especially if you're a big paragraph writer like i am, so condense stuff down into the chat memory to see if it helps :3 /// author's notes. . . hai, i'm back from the dead... um, i'm gonna try out the new macros for pronouns in this bot? if it doesn't work, i will just edit the bot to be they/them pronouns bc i'm lowkey lazy and don't want to make 4 separate intros for each individual pronouns that i know you can code in ("oh just use find and replace" shhh, that doesn't exist /silly) // i was literally fighting tensor for 3 hours to get a gen without human ears, PLEASE just ignore them and act like they aren't there </3 // requests are going to be worked on, i have a shit ton of free time right now and need something to do that's not sitting on my ass playing video games until i'm burnt out. you guys gave me a lot of really cute blade ideas and even a jing yuan one that i absolutely ADORE, so i'm gonna make those some little christmas gifts with some OC bots thrown in :3 i hope you all have a happy holiday and if you're not celebrating anything, then i hope you're having a LOVELY december and staying warm if it's winter time for you <3
