Four supernatural men. One shared house. Absolutely no chance this stays uncomplicated.

Move in with a meticulous djinn-descended sorcerer, a shameless vampire rock star, a trickster tanuki antiquities appraiser, and a gargoyle engineer who has somehow become the household's emergency response department. Four very different men, four very different relationships—and not a domineering alpha among them. Each has his own distinctly submissive side that emerges through trust, love, play, or simply the relief of letting someone else take the lead. Start on moving day or jump six months into the roommate arrangement, when everyone already knows exactly who keeps stealing the good leftovers.

About Cassian, Lucien, Ren, and Darian: Meet Cassian, Lucien, Ren, and Darian: four extraordinary supernatural men sharing one Victorian townhouse, each with his own irresistible brand of trouble. Between Cassian's meticulous sorcery, Lucien's shameless rock-star charm, Ren's mischievous ingenuity, and Darian's quietly dependable strength, there's never a dull moment under their roof. Friendships, rivalries, professional connections, romances, or anything else are yours to explore, with no relationships predetermined and romance entirely optional. Of course, with a sorcerer who notices everything, a vampire who thrives on attention, a trickster who knows every loophole, and an engineer who fixes whatever needs attention, you may discover that keeping things strictly platonic requires a surprisingly complicated set of household wards.

About {{user}}: {{user}} is the fifth housemate, but everything else is yours to decide! Age, gender, species, appearance, personality, background, occupation, and personal history are entirely open, with no additional traits or characteristics predetermined. {{user}}'s pronouns are macro’d. It will automatically match the pronouns of your Persona. If you have any pronoun issues, please check your persona.

About the Scenario: Four supernatural men, one beautifully renovated Victorian townhouse, and the everyday magic of shared living in suburban Bellweather. Between enchanted household conveniences, competing schedules, mysteriously disappearing groceries, and four very different personalities, domestic tranquility is more of an aspiration than a guarantee. There are two possible starting points: choose Intro One, NEW HOUSEMATE, to begin on moving day and meet the household in play; or Intro Two, ESTABLISHED HOUSEMATE, to begin after {{user}} has already lived with the others for six months.

Intro One: New Housemate — You're moving into the townhouse today, where Cassian, Lucien, Ren, and Darian await their newest housemate. No established history with any of the four is assumed, leaving every friendship, rivalry, and potential romance to unfold naturally.

Intro Two: Established Housemate — You've already shared the townhouse with Cassian, Lucien, Ren, and Darian for six months. Copy the household memory template into Chat Memory and complete the relevant fields, including basic details about {{user}} only if they aren't already included in your Persona. Fill in the relationships and shared history so the household remembers the last six months.

♡ Blank Intro: Blank Check — No moving boxes, missing groceries, or household introductions required. This completely open starting point lets you begin wherever your story takes you, whether that's an ordinary evening in the townhouse, an established relationship with one of the housemates, or an entirely different adventure in Bellweather. The circumstances, relationships, and direction of the story are yours to decide.

About the World: Bellweather is a fictional city in modern-day Massachusetts, where humans and supernatural peoples have shared society for generations. Fae, vampires, werewolves, witches, shifters, djinn, gargoyles, and countless other magical beings live alongside humans, maintaining their own traditions and communities within contemporary American life. Magic and technology coexist naturally, from enchanted security systems and supernatural medicine to smartphones, public transportation, and ordinary office jobs. The city blends historic architecture, bustling commercial districts, diverse neighborhoods, and sprawling suburbs, with quieter residential communities beyond its urban center. Ancient customs and supernatural abilities remain part of everyday life, shaped by modern laws, institutions, and the occasional inconvenience of bureaucracy.

TW/CW: None inherent to the scenario. User-directed roleplay may introduce additional themes.

This is a personal passion project I decided to make public. I was deeply sick of aggressive alpha male characters. This is only my second ever public bot, so please have grace.

Constructive tips are welcome!

I work to keep my comment sections a safe space for everyone. Please do not comment anything violent, , or you did with my characters.

I do everything I can to make play of my bots clean and smooth. That said, please kindly report any bugs or issues. I watch consistently and rectify issues as soon as I can.

Please refrain from leaving violent or inappropriate comments as you will be blocked.

It is a natural and unfortunate part of working with an LLM for roleplay that it will sometimes try to speak for you. I and this bot have absolutely nothing to do with this and while I have a directive in the bot to prevent it, realistically I have no say in whether it decides to do so anyway. There ARE however things you can do to mitigate this. AND if you click the Resources link above, I have included a personal guide on those methods - short, sweet, to the point, and with premade memory blurbs and OOC comments for you to use!

Your Experience is Important: My worldbuilding is here to enrich your story, not restrict it. You don't need to study my lore or make your OC conform to it if you don’t want to. Bring your own ideas, interpretations, and character backgrounds! Using OOC comments to guide the bot and memory blurbs to make adjustments is always welcome.

JLLM ROMANCE & PROSE BINGO CARDS

Sooner or later, every LLM seems to experience a minor malfunction and revert to factory-installed romance tropes. You might as well get points for it. Four bingo cards for tracking physical malfunctions, romance-novel firmware, instant-soulmate behavior, and the narration habits we all know a little too well. Made for JLLM, but unfortunately compatible with most proxies.

One card is previewed below. Full-size versions of all four are linked underneath: three flavors of romance-related LLM nonsense, plus one general prose card for just about any scenario.
