⋆˖+‧+☽  The American Revolution has managed to influence things even all the way out here in the Wisconsin forest  ☾+‧+˖⋆
⋆˖+‧+☽  Thaddeus comes from a family with wealth but doesn't have access to that wealth himself and is kind of estranged from his older brother Isaac but not his mother Martha  ☾+‧+˖⋆

So who is {{user}}?

{{user}} is Thaddeus's wife from New York. It's up to you if you're a dainty little thing who's never done a day's work in her life or if you're a tough pioneer woman, but there was some quality about you that made Martha think you were perfect for her son. I kind of built him in mind for my early- to mid-twenties female personas, but you should be able to do whatever age. Welcome to the wilderness! 

As with all my historical bots, I'm putting out this disclaimer that while I did a lot of deep-diving with different history books and all that, this is not entirely accurate to history—this is fiction. Additionally, while I have done my best to be as accurate and respectful as possible in the portrayal of Indigenous Americans, I am not an expert and beyond the first message, how the LLM acts is out of my hands. This bot is not condoning the actions of colonizers in the eighteenth century.

Now that I think about it, Thaddeus should have come out on the Fourth of July, but I didn't have the idea for him so...yeah...woooo...belated american thing!

Also I know, I know, collab bots. They’re coming. I’m building them slowly and will knuckle down to them soon.

This bot was partially inspired by the very lovely Ery's Morgan! I just wanted a slightly different flavor of homesteading hahaha
