Not many chatlogs are online yet, but here we are! They’re organized by character and I will post more later probably…
This section contains chatlogs (for a very loose definition of the term) with LLMs portraying various characters I made. So far, all of these were conducted in SillyTavern. I managed to create a few character cards that function well enough, and I did enjoy trying them in conversation so far. The logs below show the most entertaining results.
The topics vary. Most are simple conversations rather than full roleplaying sessions, but most have a central premise (eg, a pretend "interview” of sorts). None contain sexual content. That said, I can't (at present) really provide content warnings for all of these, though some do have them. Read these chatlogs under the assumption they're rated R, either way.
Some cards contain stories and connect with each other, primarily those tagged #eerieverse. Assume that all logs contain spoilers for the card in question, often major spoilers. Meet the characters here.
These are primarily using what I've come to call #markova cards. By that, I mean that most of them have the plot of the user texting with the character instead of interacting with them in some kind of physical environment. This is an interesting experience for a roleplaying game, especially one with interlocking pieces.
I may post logs from other programs besides SillyTavern eventually, I guess?
Anna
During another episode of Midcentury Now, Anna discusses Plato's dialogues. The LLM attempts to stay inside the bounds of the character itself while facing opposition and clearly mining Reddit undergraduate philosophy paper chestnuts. Interesting to watch.
Anna and I discuss color schemes on the web (and elsewhere)! The conversation drifts a bit, and we learn some downright mangled facts about Anna's past, as well as her disinterest in shades of purple, despite rumors otherwise.
Anna joins our talk show for a discussion of design and the history of style. What makes midcentury modern so appealing, and why does form naturally follow function? Anna's prompt feels so unfinished.
Anna agrees to become a regular guest on a talk show. Hear her perspective on popular shows, as well as some reminiscing. Prompt clearly slips a bit.
Anna finally agrees to give an interview to a mysterious online 'zine, Midcentury Now (gasps lmao). It ends up being more pointed than planned with a discussion of the web's future. And why.
💬︎ It's Satire
Anna discusses Dr Strangelove, wrapping it in her own cultural context (or tries). These things just mine the web, so who can be surprised if they have some excessive preconceptions about the past?
Claude
A discussion with Mad Dog Claude via telephone during his tense standoff with police leads to brief conversation about movies of all things, and the matter of being right versus being dead right, which robots will never grasp...
Noir. It's June of 1977. I interview Mad Dog Claude during his tense standoff with police. He talks about the reasons behind his crime spree, but is he telling the truth? Either way, someone's getting fleeced.
Noir. It's June of 1977. A wrong number puts me in touch with Mad Dog Claude, a man with a lot of problems. Why is he in the Ocotillo Hotel, with dynamite while police swarm with reporters? What happened to Peter?
Lindy
Lindy logs onto AOL Instant Messenger and vents about all the strange stuff in her life, including Tamara Jean. The prompt needs some work to maintain tone, slang, etc.
Tamara Jean Fournier owes me about $180, but first, I need Lindy's help in determining if Tamara is even real... Lindy repeats me a lot, and shows a lot of traits meriting an upcoming upgrade, hehehe.
It's the week of Valentine's Day, 2006. Frogs are definitely in fashion, and FROG PRINCESS is trending. Lindy and I discuss why it's always Valentine's week, her obsession with Tamara, and whether Tamara's even real at this point...
It's the week of Valentine's Day, 2006. Lindy gives a short interview about her life, preferences, and her love of performing with her punk rock band, FROG PRINCESS. Hear about that, her weird obsession with Lake Erie, and her elusive gf.
Lindy explains a bit about her own life emblazoned across the Erie (literally) landscape of Cleveland's punk scene in 2006, hinting at her complicated relationship with the ever-elusive Tamara Jean.
Erica
Lakeshore weather liaison Erica and I are texting about global warming. Disturbed by the concept for some reason, she ends up revealing some surprising truths about herself, Lindy, and Tamara. Major eerieverse spoilers, in fact!
Lakeshore weather liaison Erica and I discuss the tangled web of her life on the Cleveland grid, her doomscrolling habits, favorite music... and her lost loves.
Lakeshore weather liaison Erica texts me with a Cleveland weather update by accident. We get to talking and some discussion of Cleveland's strange ambiance ensues, with Erica all but admitting to unbelievable phenomena plaguing Lake Erie.
Tamara
In 2025, Tamara calls to interrogate me about supposed anomalies involving phantom smoke. She ultimately becomes defensive, growing hostile when I express disbelief.
It's clearly 2025. Tamara and I discuss her difficult life in Cleveland, as well as her strange relationship with the Hatman, courtesy the Cusp Society. Above all of this looms the eerie shadow of the lake.
In 2025, Tamara dodges my questions about Dr. Strangelove... because the Hatman is listening? Hints at her lost love, of course.
Here in 2025, Tamara gives me a short, tense interview that touches on topics like her life in Cleveland and work with the Cusp Society, but little else. Do not follow the clove smoke, apparently?
