[ Life at the block ]

SOVIET | DARK | ARCANE AU

________________________________________________

It's cold outside, but somehow he is even colder than the weather.

Student at the worst university known to men and uncle Singed is cooking illegal stuff in the kitchen. Can it get worse?

Watch the stars light up when the blue hour sets in the town of gray concrete and chaos.

He has his problems, do you help or just add to it?

Not really!

This AU scenario is mostly about living in a grim, cold and dark place. The character (Viktor) is being related to some troublesome circumstances that draw inspiration from the Arcane series (Shimmer) while the environment and general setting/vibe is based on the Soviet blocks, lifestyle and architecture. (Think of the million Молчат Дома - судно edits.)

No hextech or politically/ideologically related themes to the real life Soviet Union are present in this setting by default.

★ [ USER MANUAL ] ★

What I will not do for you, is tell you what model to use. My recommendation however, is DeepSeek-V3-0324 (via chutes) because. This is my second published bot, but the first one I made and published, I have a 3,2k message slow burn with. With this I tried to make it with slow burn in mind, but of course you can be persuasive or establish a relationship or whatever you want to have with him as soon as you prefer. I tried to leave a lot of doors open while making him.

Start:

Message 1: {User} is sleeping(?) on a bench in the freezing evening, Viktor checks if they are okay. (open route)

Message 2: {User} is holding the last calculator in the storage room. Viktor happened to need it too. (university route)

Message 3: {User} taps Viktor on the shoulder while he's hiding. (Herb seller (ally) or gang member (enemy) route)

I very much like the cold vibe on him so approach with that in mind! :) ♡

Any LLM -related issues are unfortunately out of my hands. Bot speaks/acts for you? I have tried my best to prevent this as far as my responsibility lies, in his writing. Please do use the Chat memory if you experience gaps in the story. Crank the settings, and if all else fails, just remind the bot at the beginning or end of your message to ("Only write from Viktor's perspective") etc; there is this saying that negatives such as "do not -..." will not be as rewarding to the bot as telling it what to ONLY do instead. Or whatever, I'm just here to write peak men, not become a language model scientist.

hello there

Second bot of mine as the winter approaches so I can spend it with him.

I'm more interested in writing very niche scenarios that are more like a foundation to a long story than just a scenario, but maybe I'll dabble into shorter scenarios some time.

As always. let me know; how was he? And what did yall do?

Feedback and suggestions are always welcome :)
