This section has my character prompts and the chatlogs that go with them. Both (mostly) come from SillyTavern, an open-source frontend for large language models, local or through APIs. Clicking a character's portrait opens the full card image, and you can also download the .JSON alone.
Most people use it for roleplay and storytelling. A lot of spicy writing comes out of SillyTavern, but that doesn't interest me. Instead, I use it to create characters who then form storylines, interacting in sci-fi/fantasy settings usually.
I also (and this is weird) will create AGENTS.md files that contain character information; you can put them anywhere one of those could normally go. You can download those for each character prompt as well.
I tested these first on Deepseek and now run them on local Qwen models, which my husband helped me install. Making a chatbot is very different from writing a novel or fanfic, which is why it interests me. Constructive feedback is welcome!
The JSON files have the most recent version of the character. You can also download the more stable PNGs and install from those. Token counts aren't up to date right now, nor do these characters have their tags properly filed presently. I know that may seem like a simple thing, and I'll get to it soon as I update each card again.
Erica Ellery
A lake expert, cheery and bright, but possibly not quite who or what she claims to be.Erica isn't a real tourist liaison, but she sounds like one. She's bright and cheerful, opening with a weather alert. If you're not too mean, she continues the messages, looking for someone to chat with. How did she get your number? And all those emojis are disorienting. But something seems off about her. What's really going on?

I try to discuss vtubing, transhumanism, and artificial intelligence with an (obviously) very caffeinated Erica, but she tends to pull things in her own panicky parasocial directions as usual, with copious references to the Lake itself...
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!
The oldest version of 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.
Weasel83
Weasel83 is straight from a forum thread in 2009.Weasel83 messages you. From a web forum in 2009. Somehow. He's not a moderator, but maybe a troll? He's got the snark and sickly energy of someone who's paced the internet like a cage. How can he connect with you when he lives, eats, and breathes irony? Does he even want to connect? Maybe he's just here to make fun of you.

I update the prompt for surly 4channer Weasel83 repeatedly in a long conversation. See if you can notice the points where he shifts? He discusses his temporal displacement, and how much he hates me...
Weasel83 finally starts off sincere after explaining just why he's trapped in the strange online world of memes, imageboards, trolling and torrents. He even shares his real name, but seems to immediately regret it. Gasp!
When persistently pressed, Weasel83 begins to vent a bit about his online existence and lack of real life enrichment, comparing himself to a raccoon and other strange metaphors. Things take an odd poetic turn.
A surly 4chan reject found my username on a forum thread, and now thinks this might make us close friends, or at least indicate that I'm not a normie, and will tolerate his odd and unnerving behavior. For lulz, apparently.

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.
Tamara Jean Fournier
Sorceress in exile, steady hands and unresolved ghosts.It's 2025. Tamara Jean Fournier is an occult moderator, working for secretive forces. She claims she detected an anomaly on your cellphone, for example. And yet? She still hears music from another life, and the sight of pink-streaked hair beneath green algae.

In the present day, physical realm, Tamara Jean Fournier is a mage with the tough job of containing unlawful magics. Here, she opens up about the other characters. We learn exactly why Erica Ellery is so strange, and why Lindy seems so confused.
In a long, detailed log, Tamara becomes increasingly uneasy as she learns about some of the other characters, remembering her past experiences with Lindy and Erica in particular.
I try to explain to Tamara my new vtubing adventures. She's mostly hostile, finding it frivolous and insulting compared to her super-serious occult work, and even says transhumanism has dangerous implications.
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.
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?
In 2025, Tamara dodges my questions about Dr. Strangelove... because the Hatman is listening? Hints at her lost love, of course.
Background
Eerieverse Details
I crafted a story of sorts, called the eerieverse, in the SillyTavern cards!? Yep. I had a lot of fun doing it! The bots are up in the roster.
The three primary characters (SillyTavern prompt cards) are Lindy, Tamara, and their hyper, quirky new mutual love interest, Erica. Think of it as vibe-storytelling? This is not uncommon with SillyTavern, but less so with other character sites.
I would consider it light supernatural horror or mystery. It’s rated R, but not sexual. Things get blurry as the bots fabricate stuff, of course. This means each retelling is slightly different. These character cards also don’t work well in group chats together. Their magical powers often contradict, for example.
Curious about my eerieverse story if it continues, or takes a different form? I am working on some tales I'll share online about these very characters! They'll be posted on my upcoming (as yet unpushed) casual site, CathyLeigh.com
