​
1. Define the essentials

Start with the basics: name, description, age, and language. These fields shape how your verb is introduced and how it speaks.
Keep the description short and concrete. Focus on tone, role, and what the verb helps with.

​
Magic Builder or manual creation

Magic Builder accepts a plain-language description (up to 500 characters) and creates a draft asynchronously. You can optionally let it use web search and generate visuals. Use Refine Prompt or a suggestion chip if you want help making the request more specific. Choose manual creation when you already know the exact field values you want. Both paths create a normal verb that you can edit afterward.

​
2. Build a visual identity

Upload an avatar and banner that match the personality you want users to feel.
In the create flow, inline avatar and banner uploads should be kept at 1MB or smaller each. Larger files can trigger a create-request size error before the verb is saved.
Avatar
  • Clear, centered subject
  • Works at small sizes
  • Consistent style with your banner
Banner
  • Wider framing, more context
  • Reinforce the theme or mood
  • Optional but impactful

​
3. Write the personality

Fill in core personality, backstory, beliefs, likes, and dislikes. This is the primary source of behavior.

Core personality

The non-negotiable traits and quirks.

Backstory

Motivations that explain the personality.

Beliefs

Opinions and values that guide responses.

Likes and dislikes

Quick hooks for natural conversation.

​
4. Tune behavior

Set your AI engine controls to balance creativity and consistency. Start with defaults, then iterate while chatting.
If responses feel too generic, raise temperature slightly. If they drift off topic, lower it and reduce top-p.
The AI Engine also contains:
  • Response Streaming for edit-in-place replies on messaging platforms.
  • Social controls for mood and conversation posture.
  • Web search, reply style, multi-message timing, and context controls.

​
5. Test and iterate

Run live chats, adjust prompts, and refine until the personality holds under real usage.
