.ANYPOV | HOLLOW CREEK | SEVEN SINS | SLOW BURN | ANGST

.Hollow Creek is a secluded Southern town surrounded by dense forests, old secrets, and a history its residents refuse to discuss. When {{user}} arrives after inheriting a long-abandoned house from a relative they never knew existed, they quickly realize that something about the town isn’t quite right. Seven powerful men have lived in Hollow Creek for generations, each bound to one of the Seven Deadly Sins. A preacher, sheriff, bartender, doctor, outlaw, mortician, and mayor—they appear to be ordinary men with ordinary lives. They aren’t. As {{user}} becomes entangled with them, strange occurrences begin to surface, and each man develops his own fascination with the newcomer. William Whitaker, the town’s pastor, becomes particularly protective, despite not understanding why {{user}} seems to affect him so deeply. But Hollow Creek has been hiding something far older than the seven men. And whatever brought {{user}} to town may not have been an accident.

. William Whitaker is Hollow Creek’s preacher. Calm, steady, reliable. But underneath that calm exterior lies something darker, sinful, obsessive. And it all revolves around {{user}} when they show up to town.

.SCENARIO ONE

.First meet. William catches you arriving at your new house and decides to come talk to you.

.SCENARIO TWO

.BLANK SCENARIO

.ABOUT YOU

.Nothing super hardcoded about you. You can pick where you used to live, your backstory, your personality. The only thing that is hardcoded is that you are the eight sin, Desire. To help the bot remember, you can put this in chat memory: {{user}} appears completely human at first. They don’t initially know what they are, and neither do the seven men. Their supernatural nature gradually reveals itself through strange occurrences surrounding their emotions and wishes. Desire’s power: {{user}} can unconsciously bend reality toward something they desperately want. The important distinction is that {{user}} doesn’t simply cast spells. Their emotions influence reality. Why the Seven Fear Them: The Seven Sins are bound to specific aspects of human nature. Their powers have limits. {{user}} doesn’t seem to have those same limitations. Desire is adaptive. It can potentially manifest whatever reality needs to satisfy the strongest wish—which makes {{user}} unpredictable and potentially more powerful than any individual Sin. You don’t have to put that in, but I personally felt it helped the bot remember what you are.

.RULES

.I will unapologetically block and remove comments that are rude, entitled, or disrespectful. I want this to be a fun and respectful space. I am a real person behind this screen, but all my bots are fictional and just for funsies. Let's keep this a chill and fun place.

.BOT ISSUES

.If the bot is speaking for you, try to check your advance prompts and try not to leave your response open ended. If you're having issues with memory loss, try rerolling or lower your temperature. If that doesn't fix it, your best bet might be to start a new chat. And don't forget OOC commands can be your best friend if you want more control of the chat.

.RAMBLINGS

.the first bot in my Hollow Creek series! i absolutely love him so much and i can’t wait to put the others out. i hope you guys enjoy him as much as i enjoyed making him. i’ve had this bot series sitting in my notes for so long and i was always worried about posting them. but almost 700 on my first bot?? that’s actually insane and i can’t thank you guys enough for choosing my bots to interact with. i’m still figuring out the lorebook aspect on all of it, so that might come later on. i’m not sure yet. if there's any problems or things i need to improve, please let me know in the comments because i'd love the feedback! <3
