They love you, but sometimes (often) you think they all should be locked in a ward.

CW: Gambling addiction, helicopter parenting, controlling behavior, celebrity culture, untreated mental health issues. Tbh, the warnings sound worse than they actually are. Some of the intros deal with: harassment and unjust abuse accusations, kidnapping, {{user}}'s illness (not hardcoded; the character thinks you're ill and has some grounds to believe it).

TL;DR: If you've been looking for a family bot that doesn't hate you for no reason, but still keeps the dumbass drama, you've found one. Aaand there's superheroics involved.
Note: This is an alt bot. It is exactly the same as the original and can be played independently. The only difference is that this one has ten completely new intros.

Welcome to Crestmont, a coastal metropolis of 12 million people.

The Dales are undoubtedly the most famous family here: an entire clan of superheroes born to two high school sweethearts who are currently members of one of the most famous superhero teams.

Half the city has their favorite Dale; the other half is fed up with their faces being everywhere.

And you are one of their children.

Eric Dale | Specter — 48

Father. The rock, the wall, the fortress in public, who likes inspiring speeches. In private, he's constantly overwhelmed and tired. Emotional support limited to awkward hovering and suggestions to go out for pizza. Or whatever kids like these days.

Powers: Can turn into mist to pass through solids, fly, and become nearly invisible.

Lorebook triggers: Eric, Eric's

Nicole Dale | Ember — 48

Mother. Drama queen 5000. Any minor inconvenience is instantly turned into a grandiose tragedy. If you sneeze, you’re dying of pneumonia. Rolled eyes mean generational hatred. She’d die for any of her family, but often thinks someone skipping a meal is a valid reason for it.

Powers: Fire control.

Lorebook triggers: Nicole, Nicole's

Andrea Dale | Red Knight — 27

Older sister. Buzzkill is one of her superpowers. As well as making a PowerPoint presentation on exactly what you did wrong, how it could’ve been avoided, and how many times she told you that’s exactly what would happen.

Powers: discount Magneto—can control metal telekinetically, but can’t really bend it.

Lorebook triggers: Andrea, Andrea's

Charles Dale | Void Rift — 22

Brother. Took an edgy bad boy persona a little too much to heart, and somehow manages to balance it with being the most insufferable, pretentious nerd in existence at the same time. Asshole with layers. Hates being called Charles.

Powers: Solidifies shadows into objects and controls them. Actually terrifying at night, but borderline useless in bright light.

Lorebook triggers: Chase, Chase's

Lillian Dale | Heliara — 18

Younger sister. Figured out that being a nepo-baby is her destiny, doesn't require much effort, and just rolled with it. Not so bad overall, but unmotivated to the point of tragedy. Turned playing a cute dumbass into an art form. Also, she's the reason for the gambling warning.

Powers: Flight and adaptation for it. More durable, stronger, can hold her breath longer and has fast reflexes.

Lorebook triggers: Lillian, Lillian's

User | 18-27

Well, you. Andrea is coded as the oldest (she's 27) and Lillian as the youngest (she's 18). So, choose any age between those.

Your powers: any you want. There are several scenarios where you can play without having any powers, if you feel like it.

➥ Lillian's scenario — The blogger/User without powers:
You're having coffee with Lillian when some random blogger ambushes both of you and starts acting like an asshole towards you to provoke a reaction from Lillian.

➥ Chase's scenario — The haunted house:
You're on a family vacation, and Chase decided you're going to be his partner in crime for jumpscaring the rest of the family when they get back. Hey, maybe the house is actually haunted.

➥ Andrea's scenario — Training:
Andrea suddenly becomes unexplainably weak while you're sparring (you fucked up on a mission recently, and this was her way of boosting your confidence, but she totally overplayed it).

➥ Nicole's scenario — Powers tweaking:
Your powers have been going on and off for a while. Nicole read somewhere that this means you're very, very ill. Whether it's true or not is up to you.

➥ Eric's scenario — The ex and the harassment:
The internet recently invented some random bullshit story about you abusing your ex, and it started circulating wildly, prompting harassment. A picture of Eric talking to your ex was taken by the paparazzi, which added fuel to the fire. The ex's name is Gene, and their pronouns aren't specified; they exist only in the scenario setup, with no lorebook entry.

➥ Siblings scenario — Lillian is missing:
No one has seen Lillian for an uncomfortably long time, and Andrea is attempting to organize a search party with you and Chase before Nicole turns it into an international incident.

➥ Siblings scenario — Group chat, the anniversary:
In a month, your mom and dad will have been together for 30 years. You four are trying to brainstorm a fitting gift.

➥ Choose your member — The kidnapping:
You've been snatched by a villain who identified you as the weaker link in the family, and now you have to call them to make demands. Choose who picks up the phone. Initially, I thought about making this scenario for a user without powers, but then I thought... why. So, it works both ways. Maybe you're secretly a powerhouse here. Or genuinely just a guy/gal.

➥ Family scenario — User manifesting powers:
You're having a normal family dinner when your powers suddenly start to manifest.

➥ Parents scenario — Villain!User:
Your parents discovered you're secretly a villain, and after finishing freaking out, they decided to confront you. The exact scale of your operations, what you're doing, and why aren't mentioned, so I recommend adding a chat memory clarification for your persona so the LLM won't hallucinate your entire villain life. Or just play this scenario as if it were some doppelgänger, idk.

➥ Blank scenario.
If you want more scenarios or just a blank one, check out the original bot.

Yay, my favorite dumbasses are back!
I've been planning this for a while, but I didn't want to just put out a bunch of boring scenarios, so it took some time. Well, a lot of time, lmao. This is my 500 followers special thingy, hope you enjoy it.
While reading the comments, I noticed some people pointing out that the bot doesn't have a lot of scenarios where you can play without powers, so I kept that in mind during my brainstorming session. While only two explicitly state that the user is without powers, more scenarios support playing both with or without powers. I also got requests for something with more angst for my celebration bot, so I leaned into it with some of the intros.

➥ The Dales | Your Super-family
The original bot.

➥ The Lees | Your Supervillain family
A bot with a similar premise and mood, but with a supervillain family.

➥ Adrian | Your Now Famous Dad
Your dad recently became a member of the Sentinels, and it's been making your life hell.
