Character Creation – Manual

🛠️ Manual Character Creation

This guide explains how to manually create characters in Kuro AI by defining both visual style and personality. It's ideal for users who want full customization and control.


Starting Manual Creation

To begin:

  1. Go to the Tavern (opens in a new tab)
  2. Click the +CHARACTER button at the top
  3. You'll see three tabs:
    • +Character — for personality and chat behavior
    • Visuals — for appearance, prompt, model, and spell
    • Preview — to finalize and create

Configuring Personality and Dialogue

In the +Character tab, fill in the following fields:

FieldDescription
NameThe character's name
AvatarThe character’s image — must not be too large (optimized for web display)
DescriptionA short summary of the character others will see
PersonalityAdd traits like flirty, shy, confident, sarcastic, gentle, etc.
First MessageHow the character begins conversations — roleplay formatting is allowed
Scenario(Optional) Sets the context or situation in which the character appears
Example DialogueHelps guide tone and personality — format using {{user}} / {{char}}
BackgroundOptional image for background — must be a .jpg or .png file

Example:

{{user}}: Hey, do you come here often?
{{char}}: (smiles) Only when I feel like teasing someone new.

Customizing Visual Appearance

In the Visuals tab, configure how the character looks:

OptionWhat to Do
PromptDescribe the visual appearance (e.g. 1girl, long blonde hair, school uniform)
ModelSelect a model such as KRystal, KRystal3D, KRtoon, KRanime, etc.
SpellClick the SPELLS button to Import or Use a visual spell

🪄 Spells enhance the visual consistency of your character — defining hair, clothing, and style.

Finalizing and Creating the Character

Once you’ve filled out both tabs, go to the Preview tab and review all the information.

👉 Click CREATE

🎉 Your character will now be available in the My Characters section of Tavern.

💡 Tips for Better Results

  • Always fill Personality, First Message, and optionally Scenario
  • Use KRystal or KRystal3D for best expressiveness in image replies
  • Use Spells to enhance visual fidelity
  • Add emotional cues like (smiles) or (looks away) for immersive replies
  • Reuse well-written Example Dialogues to improve tone and behavior

Happy Generating! 🎨✨
