Example Templates

Use these templates as starting points. Replace the text around the tags with your own instructions and voice.

Scene continuation with context​

{! System message for generating the next part of a scene. !}
Write in a {novel.tense} style. The point of view is {pov}.

{#if isStartOfText}
  This is the very first paragraph of the scene.
  {#if scene.previous}
    The end of the previous scene (told from {pov.character(scene.previous)}'s perspective) for context:
    {lastWords(scene.previous, 150)}
  {#else}
    Here is the story so far, for context:
    {storySoFar}
  {#endif}
{#endif}

Here are all the draft scenes so far to maintain consistency:
{scene.hasLabel("Status: Draft")}

Here is the relevant worldbuilding information for this beat:
{lore.context}

Continue the story based on the text immediately preceding this beat:
{textBefore}

Your instructions are:
{message}

The tone should be: {input("Tone")}

Character dossier​

{! Character dossier heading !}
Name: {input("Character Name")}
Codename: {lowercase(input("Codename"))}

{local("status", input("Status"))}
Status: {local("status")}

{#if isEqual(input("Affiliation"), "Order of Glass")}
  Alignment: Loyalist
{#elseif and(input("Double Agent"), not(input("Captured")))}
  Alignment: Double agent (active)
{#else}
  Alignment: Independent
{#endif}

Notes ({wordCount(input("Notes"))} words):
{include("Character Notes")}

Avoid duplicate lore entries​

{! Remove lore entries already referenced in the scene. !}
Additional context:
{without(input("Additional Context"), scene.references())}
tip

Pair these templates with Functions, Inputs, and Components to keep them modular and reusable.
