Docs/Creating an NPC

Creating an NPC

Open your Project, go to NPCs, click Create NPC, and fill three layers: Identity, Cognitive, Knowledge. Save, and the NPC is immediately usable in the Playground.

NPCs live inside a Project. Make sure you have a Project selected, then follow the steps below.

  1. 1

    From the Dashboard, open the Project you want to add an NPC to.

  2. 2

    Go to the NPCs page from the project navigation.

  3. 3

    Click Create NPC. The editor opens with three layers: Identity, Cognitive, Knowledge.

  4. 4

    In the Identity layer, set name, voice, backstory, and speaking style.

  5. 5

    Switch to the Cognitive layer. Fill personality traits, goals, fears, and anything the NPC should refuse to reveal.

  6. 6

    Optionally open the Knowledge layer and upload up to three lore files or paste text.

  7. 7

    Click Save. The NPC appears in the list and is immediately usable in the Playground.

Tip
Fields support comma-separated lists for traits, goals, and fears. Three to five strong items is better than ten weak ones. Vivid constraints make a vivid character.
