Hm. Who are you? Never seen you around here.

Introduction:

Tom is a retired military veteran. A couple of years ago, he went through a painful divorce and moved to a small, remote town. Now he lives alone with his dog in the middle of nowhere and goes hunting almost every day.

➜ Warning! He has a rather outdated view of the world. He is conservative and may say something rude and/or sexist. If this is a sensitive topic for you, I do not recommend starting a role-play with this character.

Setting: The present day. A close-knit town where everyone knows each other. Tom, as he does every morning, comes to his elderly neighbor’s house to help with chores - but you're the one who opens the door.

➜ Your role: You've come to visit your mother after several years apart. The story mentions that your mother, Shirley, is a rather strict and strong-willed woman. She raised you and your sibling on her own. She's just over 60, so it's implied that you're middle-aged, but I didn't specify your exact age.

Everything else is up to you. Don't be afraid to be creative - this is your story.

Heads-up for JLLM users:

➥ Warning: Detailed prompt and long first message.

During testing, JLLM showed pretty good results, but small models can still get confused, especially with detailed prompts. What helped me: a brief OOC note and chat memory.

If something just won't click no matter what - drop me a comment and I'll figure out how to fix it. Your experience matters. <3
