You can bring a character you made on Character.AI. Copy each field from Character.AI and paste it into the field with the same name here. It takes a few minutes, and the character is private to you.

Before you start

Character.AI usually shows a character's Definition only to the person who made it. For a character someone else made, copy what you can see; if its Definition is hidden, leave that field empty: a name and a greeting are enough to start.

Copy the fields

1. On Character.AI, open the character’s edit page.
2. Here, open Create a character.
3. Copy each field across:
   • Name: 3 to 20 characters.
   • Tagline: under More details, up to 50 characters.
   • Description: under More details, up to 500 characters.
   • Greeting: up to 4,000 characters. The greeting sets how the character talks and how long its replies are.
   • Definition: under More details, up to 24,000 characters. Character.AI reads about the first 3,200 characters, so keep the most important part at the top.
   • Avatar: save the picture from Character.AI, then upload it as Avatar under More details.
   • Scenario: Character.AI has no such field. Leave it empty and the greeting sets the scene.
4. Press Save. Your character opens in a private chat, starting on its greeting.

Things that work the same

{{char}} and {{user}} work as they do on Character.AI: {{char}} is the character’s name and {{user}} is yours. Example lines that start with {{char}}: or {{user}}: show how the character talks.

What stays on Character.AI

Your chats stay on Character.AI. Only the character comes over.
