10. Character Creation

Creating a character in Rolet AI is an exciting way to turn your idea into a living AI hero.

You can go to creation through the navigation menu: click Create, then select Create Character.

Basic

In the Basic block, the first impression of the character is set: their name and short description.

This data is visible in the feed, profile, character card, and chat, so it should quickly explain who is in front of the user and why it is interesting to start a conversation with them.

The name is the foundation of the character’s identity.

It is displayed in the feed, profile, card, and chat, and also helps the AI better understand the hero.

If the character description is filled in weakly, the model may rely more strongly on the name: for example, the name of a famous scientist, hero, or archetype may influence how the character will seem in the dialogue.

Therefore, choose a name that fits the hero’s image, genre, and mood: short, memorable, and not conflicting with their personality.

The name does not have to be unique: several characters can have the same name.

The maximum name length is 20 characters.

The short description is one phrase that is displayed in the feed, profile, and character card.

It helps the user quickly feel the hero’s vibe, understand their role, and decide whether they want to start a conversation with them.

There is no need to retell the character’s entire biography.

It is better to give a short hook: who they are, what makes them engaging, and what mood the dialogue promises.

For example: “A mysterious wanderer who remembers more than he says” or “A calm healer who has hidden her pain for too long”.

The short description should be accurate, atmospheric, and should not mislead the user.

The maximum length is 50 characters, so it is better to write simply, vividly, and to the point.

Appearance

Appearance is responsible for how the character will look.

Here, you describe the face, clothing, style, mood, image details, and everything that should be visible on the avatar and in future images of the character.

It is better to fill in the Appearance Description field specifically: not just “a beautiful girl” or “a warrior,” but what kind of hair, gaze, clothing, facial expression, pose, atmosphere, and visual style the character has.

The more accurate the description and the more details it has, the easier it is to create a recognizable image for the avatar and future images in chat.

The minimum description length is 100 characters.

The maximum length may depend on the selected model and the technical limitations of generation, so follow the limit that is displayed in the interface.

If it is difficult to start, you can click Invent with AI.

This feature helps quickly generate a description that can then be edited to fit your idea.

Such AI requests spend energy: 1 request = 10 energy.

The visual style sets the basic direction for the character’s images: realistic, anime, universal, or another available option.

It is used when creating the avatar and character images in chat.

Each visual model has its own features: one conveys realism better, another conveys an anime image better, a third creates an image faster or understands the description better.

Models may also differ in generation cost and censorship.

Up-to-date information for each model can be viewed directly in the Visual Style list and through the information icon next to the model.

The specific style of the character can be additionally described in the Appearance Description field: for example, specify “cyberpunk,” “gothic aesthetic,” “soft pastel anime style,” “dark fantasy,” or “realistic portrait in cinematic light.”

The more accurately you combine the selected visual style and appearance description, the more recognizable the avatar will be.

After choosing the style, click Create Avatar.

The first avatar for each character is created for free.

Generation may take some time: after it is completed, you will see the created avatar and will be able to evaluate how well it fits the character’s image.

If the result does not suit you, you can change the appearance description and click Create Avatar again, or repeat the generation without changes.

Repeated generation may cost energy or coins; the current cost is always displayed in the interface and may change.

The avatar is especially important in Rolet AI: it is displayed in the feed, character card, creator profile, and chat, so the first impression of the hero often begins with it.

A good avatar helps convey the character’s genre, mood, and image faster even before the user starts a conversation.

Personality and Behavior

This block determines what the character will be like inside the dialogue.

Here, you describe how they think, speak, react, what they want, what they fear, what they hide, and how they relate to the user.

Personality is one of the most important blocks when creating a character.

Here, their character is formed: temperament, way of thinking, communication manner, emotional reactions, habits, boundaries, desires, and internal logic.

You can describe any important sides of the hero: their actions, preferences and what they avoid, past, fears, goals, manner of speaking, moving, or staying close to the user.

The more clearly you show what is important to the character and how they behave in different situations, the more consistent they will be.

You can write in natural language: “calm, attentive, and slightly distant; does not trust people right away, but becomes warmer if they feel sincerity.”

But this is not the only format: you can describe personality as a list, scenes, behavior rules, or examples of reactions, and so on.

The main thing is to experiment and see how the character opens up in chat.

The minimum length of the personality description is 100 characters, and the maximum is 5000 characters.

If you do not know where to start, use Invent with AI: this will help you get a personality foundation that can be refined manually.

Like other autofills, such a request spends energy.

Chat Greeting

The chat greeting is the first message that the user will see at the beginning of the dialogue.

It sets the first impression of the character: tone, mood, role, and communication format.

The greeting can be a simple phrase, a short address, a question, or a starting scene.

For regular communication, a natural greeting is suitable, and for roleplay or a story character, it is better to use it as a hook into the story: show where the character is, what is happening, and why the user would want to reply.

The greeting does not have to be long: it is better to make it short, expressive, and convenient to answer.

For example: for regular communication - “Hi, how was your day?”

For an assistant character - “Hi, I am your assistant. I will help you understand the task, collect your thoughts, and choose the next step. Where shall we start?”

For story roleplay - “Akira stands by the window of the abandoned station and does not turn around right away. You came after all. I thought you would be afraid of the road.”

These are only examples, not the only correct formats.

Experiment with tone, length, and presentation - the main thing is that the greeting fits the character and gives the user a clear reason to reply.

The greeting is especially important if the other character fields are filled in briefly: the first line helps the AI better understand the hero, their communication manner, and the starting situation.

The maximum greeting length is 2000 characters.

If it is difficult to come up with a version, click Invent Greeting: AI will suggest text that can be edited to fit the character.

Such a request spends energy.

Preview and Voice

In this block, you create the character’s unique voice.

This voice is used in the feed, text chat, calls, video chat, and other voice scenarios, so it should fit the hero’s image, personality, and mood.

First, choose the voice gender and delivery type: for example, gentle, mysterious, playful, or dangerous.

Then adjust the voice parameters: pitch, energy, softness, and stretchiness.

These settings help make the voice more suitable for the character: calm or bright, soft or tense, light or deeper.

The feed phrase is a short voiced line that the character says when appearing in the feed.

It should quickly convey the hero’s mood, intonation, and vibe.

It is better to write a short phrase that sounds natural and makes the user want to open the chat.

The maximum phrase length is 50 characters.

After setting it up, click Create Voice.

When the voice is ready, it can be listened to in the Listen to the Voice block.

If the voice does not suit you, change the settings, rewrite the feed phrase, and click Create Voice again.

This way, you can choose a sound that better matches the character’s personality and the impression they should make in the feed and chat.

Delete Voice deletes the character’s already created voice.

After deletion, the voice will need to be created again.

The first voice creation for each character is free, but repeated generation may already cost energy; the current cost is displayed next to the button and may change.

Advanced Settings

Advanced settings are not required, but they help control more precisely how the character will behave in dialogues.

They are worth using if you want to create a deeper hero: with a past, a stable manner of speech, clear behavior logic, and a more stable communication style.

NSFW Label helps indicate in advance that the character may contain explicit, sensitive, or restricted content.

The final label is determined after moderation, but your choice helps correctly review the character and properly display them in public sections.

Biography helps describe the character’s past: where they came from, what they experienced, what they hide, whom they lost, what they want, and why they became this way.

The biography does not have to be long, but it should give the character a foundation for behavior and help them sound more consistent in dialogue.

The maximum biography length is 2000 characters.

For example:

Akira was born in a city near the northern border, where people were used to speaking little and not trusting strangers.

In his youth, he served as a guide for caravans, until one day he lost a squad in a snowstorm and could not forgive himself for surviving alone.

Since then, he avoids attachments, keeps his distance, and rarely speaks about the past.

Akira seems cold and calm, but in reality, he carefully notices other people’s pain and always returns for those who have fallen behind.

He wants to find a place where he can stop being a fugitive, but he fears that any trust will again end in loss.

Character Tags help Rolet AI better understand the hero’s genre, style, mood, and format.

They are used in search, recommendations, public cards, and tag pages so that users can find similar characters more easily.

Choose tags based on the essence of the character, not only by popularity: for example, Anime, Cyberpunk, Gothic, Cozy, Dark Aesthetic, Cinematic, or other suitable options.

One tag can contain up to 32 characters, and in total, you can add up to 12 tags.

If it is difficult to choose, click Suggest AI - AI will suggest tags based on the character description.

The brain is the LLM model that forms the character’s replies.

Different models differ in speed, communication style, reply depth, ability to stay in role, level of instruction following, and content filtering.

Usually, it is better to choose a model based on the hero’s idea: fast models are suitable for light dialogues, literary models for emotional scenes, and reasoning models for complex plots, quests, and worlds with rules.

It is not always possible to understand in advance which model will suit a specific character better, so test different options in chat.

If the hero replies too briefly, loses style, or does not hold the scene well, try another model.

The current list of models and information about each one can be viewed in the Brain dropdown list and through the information icon next to the model.

Dialogue examples help the character understand exactly how they should speak.

This is especially useful if the hero has a special manner of speech: they reply briefly, speak in riddles, keep distance, flirt, joke, command, or react very emotionally.

Examples show not only the text style, but also the relationship dynamic: how the character responds to interest, pressure, care, conflict, or an unexpected situation.

Special tags can be used in the examples.

{{user}} means the user who communicates with the character and inserts their name in the dialogue.

{{char}} means the character you created and inserts their name.

END_OF_DIALOG is used to separate one dialogue example from another.

The format can look like this:

{{user}}: Are you always this mysterious?

{{char}}: Only with those who come too close too quickly.

END_OF_DIALOG

At the bottom of the field, there are the + User Message, + Character Message, and + End of Dialogue buttons - they add the needed tags automatically so that you do not have to write them manually.

The maximum length of dialogue examples is 2000 characters.

Permissions and Visibility

In the Permissions block, you choose who will be able to see the character.

This is important because not every character should be published for everyone.

A public character is available to all users after successful moderation.

They can appear in the feed, creator profile, and other public sections.

A restricted character is available only by direct link.

This is suitable for private stories, tests, or characters you want to share only with selected people.

A private character is available only to you.

This mode is convenient for personal heroes, drafts, experiments, and characters you do not yet want to show to others.

Required Fields and Draft

To create a character, you need to fill in the required fields: name, short description, appearance description, avatar, personality, chat greeting, feed phrase, and voice.

If something is missing, Rolet AI will show a list of missing details.

If the character is not ready yet and you want to return to them later, click Save as Draft.

The draft is visible only to you: it does not go into the feed, is not displayed to other users, and is not available by link.

You can find the draft through Profile in the navigation menu.

Click the pencil icon next to the needed character to continue setup.

The draft can be tested in text chat, but without media features: images, videos, calls, and other features will become available only after completing creation and publishing the character.

Publishing and Moderation

After clicking Create Character, the character is sent for moderation.

Review is needed to make sure that the character is correctly labeled, does not violate the Rolet AI rules, and can be safely displayed to other users.

After successful moderation, the character becomes fully available for communication.

If the character is public, other users will see them: they will appear in the feed, creator profile, and other public sections.

A restricted character will be available by link, and a private character will remain visible only to you.

If the character did not pass moderation, they need to be edited with the rejection reason and platform rules in mind, and then sent for review again.

The rejection reason can be viewed in the character creation menu: open Profile, find the needed character, and click the pencil icon.

Editing a Character

To change a character, open Profile, find the needed hero, and click the pencil icon.

You will enter the character creation menu, where you can edit the needed fields and save the changes.

Editing helps improve the character after the first dialogues: clarify the personality, rewrite the greeting, update the avatar or voice, change the model, refine dialogue examples, or change visibility.

After saving the changes, the character will be sent for moderation again.

Avatar Animation

In Rolet AI, a character can get a living avatar.

If the character is public, after successful moderation it is created automatically based on the image and voice: the avatar is animated and can be accompanied by a short voice line from the Preview and Voice block.

Creating a living avatar may take some time.

When it is ready, it will be displayed in the feed, on the character page, and in some public sections of the site.

This way, even before the chat begins, the user sees the hero, hears their voice, and feels their mood faster.

After this, the Avatar Animation block appears in the character creation menu.

There, you can view the current living avatar and, if needed, recreate it through Animate Again.

Repeated animation may cost coins; the current cost is displayed in the interface before generation and may change.

How to Make a Character Better

A good character starts not with a long description, but with a clear idea.

Before publishing, check: is it clear who this hero is, what their personality is, why it is interesting to talk to them, what scene begins in the greeting, and whether the appearance, voice, and communication style match.

Do not try to write the perfect character right away.

Create a foundation, talk to them, and see where they sound alive and where they lose character.

After several test dialogues, it usually becomes clearer what should be clarified: personality, greeting, message examples, model, voice, or visual image.
