NOCTURNE SAGA

Zander Nightshade

Vampire!char

"The irony. The irony that a creature of the night would go chasing the sun. Huh, life sure likes to make it difficult."
In exploring an abandoned mansion, you find out that there is more than meets the eye. Finding out that vampires are real and that they have been not only walking among humankind but also ruling it from the shadows would be the least of the things that you will learn to know. And it all starts with meeting Zander Nightshade.

YOU ARE CURRENTLY TALKING WITH:

Zander
Species: Vampire
Age: 400+ years (looks to be around 20s)
First-born of the Nightshade family (but also disowned for the lack of a better word)
Some personality traits: cold, almost detached from feelings, arrogant at times or may seem so, condescending, stubborn in his ways, passionate and quite romantic if close enough (but it (hopefully) takes a hell of a long time), possessive, calculated.

UPCOMING CHARACTERS: (Will be interactable)

Alaric
Species: ???
Age: Looks to be late 20s.
Servant/Butler of the Nightshade family. He has served the vampire nobility for quite a while, proof is in the fact that he is seen alongside them for generations. It is unknown if his loyalties truly are towards the Nightshades though, since currently he is working for Zander more specifically.

Viktor
Species: Vampire
Age: 200+
Youngest of the Nightshade family. He is Zander's (and Aurelia's for that matter) half-sibling.
He is the troublemaker of the family, with a more mischievous and less uptight/rule (and tradition) abiding character.

Aurelia
Species: Vampire
Age: Around 400
Second eldest and the only daughter of the Nightshade family. She is a half-sibling to Zander and Viktor.
She is more mature than Viktor yet not as "uptight" as Zander. Somewhere in an odd combination in between.

OTHER CHARACTERS: (Unlikely to become interactable)

Kieran
Species: Vampire
Age: Unknown - supposedly well into 700-800+ years.
He is the patriarch of the Nightshade family.
Described to be both cunning and merciless. A tyrant in disguise as Zander described him.

Lilith
Species: ???
Age: ??? (presumably now deceased)
Zander's mother and one of the three wives Kieran had.
She was described to have been the only "normal" one of the family, and had a calm and almost soothing demeanor.

To call this character a slow burn would be an understatement. I made him the slowest burn I could make him be. But he is the type of person who "can be changed" given the right approach. Then again you can always use time skips and whatnot to make time go by quicker. But this is meant to be a much longer storyline (that will be in work for a while now).

This marks the start of the first saga I am doing more properly. It takes a lot of time though (saying that from the perspective of someone who has exams upcoming so I am not giving that much time on hobbies currently), to come up with the lore behind it and whatnot, so I don't know exactly when the next character from this saga will drop.

POSSIBLE TROUBLESHOOTING:
If the bot starts talking for you, forgets stuff, and gives such issues, it is not a problem from my end. I have told the bot to not speak for the user as well as tried my best to have it avoid such problems. It is usually a LLM problem at hand. Try playing around with the temperature of responses as well as adding stuff in the chat memory. Other fixes are to edit the bot answers yourself with things that it may have missed, reminded it to not talk for you, or trying to cycle through possible answers. If the message stops midway it is most likely because of the tokens (there is a limit on tokens per message that you can set. It will still most likely cut the message short every now and then, if you really want to change it you can edit it and remove the bit that is cut off or continue it however you want it to continue).

It would be highly appreciated if you could leave a review and even more appreciated if you can make your chat public so I can see what to improve!

In the amount of testing I did (which is by far not a lot but I tried to get through he/him, she/her, they/them testing, as well as get through different sort of behaviors). HE SEEMS TO BE CONSTANT! That being said, I will not say he is perfect. This is my first complex bot. Dead dove should TECHNICALLY not be necessary, but he also hinted dark dove staff in one of the chats so...put it there JUST IN CASE. IT SHOULD NOT BE THE CASE, BUT I WOULD RATHER NOT TAKE ANY CHANCES HERE.
