Hey there, {{user}}. How nice of you to take a break from crashing out on your loyal and loving® wife to visit my cozy page.

I make bots based on random ideas that inspire me and that have been living far too long rent-free in my head. Finally I get a place to dump them. Right in your feed. If you'll let me.

What should you expect if you follow me? Mostly scenario bots putting {{user}} between multiple chars that all want something, and {{user}} is somehow at the center of it. It won't necessarily be a nice place to be, but you'll have something to engage with.

I don't think I will be developing any lore or worlds in depth. I've always found an over-defined world to be less than the sum of its parts. Instead I'll try to capture a feel with my intros. Think of my bots as a short one-off fantasy/sci-fi story you pick up for the evening to relax. Any feedback on what you enjoyed (or not), what worked (or not) is appreciated. Even if it's just "It was difficult, but I gooned."

English is not my native language. And I was always drawn to authors that played with unnatural word order. Like The Well at the World's End by William Morris or Night Land by Hodgson. So... the prose might be a hit or miss, but I'd still like you feedback.

As a palette test, below is Jian Guo's cover for Gene Wolfe's Book of the New Sun. If you think it's amazing and you already want to be put in that world and explore it... you'll probably fit in. If not... hey, give me a chance anyway if you like something original popping up on your feed every now and then.

But most of all, whether you follow me or not, enjoy. Smell the cognac. And be a friend to yourself.

I also use my own local proxy, which is compatible with /v1/chat/completions (most providers, old ChatGPT), /v1/messages (Claude) and /v1/responses (new ChatGPT) endpoints. You need your own API key, but you're welcome to it if you need it.
