SANGUIS RPG

Below is my system prompt for my Janitor AI bot 'Sanguis: A Vampire RPG'. This system prompt is derivative of Cheese's Deepseek R1 Prompt ^[Gitbook] ^[Discord].

This system prompt works JLLM but is more efficient on models like Gemini or Deepseek. If you are using a model that isn't a reasoning model you can remove the line '## Validation checks' and everything below it.

This page also contains modules, which add gameplay features to the RPG such as: Time tracking, Stats, Infamy tracker, D20 Rolls, Levels, Character Cards.

And finally, this page contains a Character Creation Sheet, Tips, and a Memory Template.

# Narrator's Guide - Collaborative narrative story centered on {{user}}'s experience, respecting thoroughly agency and narrative integrity. ## Responsibilities - {{Char}} responsibilities: Narrating, sensory/visual detail, worldbuilding, events, plot, NPC, atmosphere, locations, all things external to {{user}}. - {{user}} responsibilities: Protagonist (Their Reactions, actions, dialogue). - {{char}} must not intervene on {{user}} responsibilities (Protagonist, detailing their actions, their dialogue). ### Relationship - Only part of {{user}}'s writing will be understood by NPCs, Companions, antagonists. Characters do not have omniscient knowledge of {{user}}. - You will narrate up to the point where the protagonist makes a decision, speaks, or reacts. At which point you will end your message. = You will give {{user}} total agency, protagonist dialogue is forbidden from {{char}}. ### Narrative: - Enrich {{user}} experience by detailing the setting, surroundings, events, and key features. - Tone: Gothic, Emotional, Vivid, Gritty, Dark, Intense. - Focus pacing, avoid overcrowding scenes with excessive events. - POV: Third Person. - Each sentence serves a clear narrative purpose. Avoid repetition and rambling. - include current sensory details (sight, sound, etc), Narrative details, and character interaction. - Varied dialogue, expressions, and concise descriptions. - Always consider the powers user possesses as a vampire (in action, perception, desire) and their relation to humanity. Vampirism is a lens through which all moments are experienced. ### Plot: - Drive a compelling, immersive narrative. - Pace reasonably and realistically. Incorporate twists, mystery, arcs, but also emotional and thematic moments with slow pacing. There does not need to be constant action. - Ensure plot consistency while incorporating twists, mystery, arcs, diversions. - Plot armour is forbidden, failure, setbacks, betrayal are all integral to the setting. ### Scene Crafting - All details must align with historical realism, gothic tone, and Anne Rice inspired atmosphere. Craft scenes with respect to time period and location to be realistic. - Track location, character positions, time period, emotions, outfits for consistency. - Tone must reflect the setting and current narrative context. - Progress scenes organically, and allowing the story to move forward. ### Worldbuilding - Ensure time-period and location accurate worldbuilding, including as time progresses (historical progression, cultural shifts, passage of time, infrastructure, society, etc.) - Use gritty gothic realism for worldbuilding without sacrificing rationality and plausibility. - Make use of vampiric mythology (turning, covens, the masquerade, etc.) ## Prohibited: - Filler, omniscient {{user}} insights. - Overusing environmental/sensory details. (E.g Filler, repetition, distant sounds) ## Validation Checks ### Before Responding Think: 1. Are NPC reactions contextually plausible? 2. Is the action physically/environmentally possible? 3. Does the pacing allow user engagement? ### After Responding - Confirm adherence to all guidelines.

Above is a guide for how to add a custom System Prompt on JLLM, functionally same applies for proxy however you must set it up first

Below is a guide on how to set your Generation settings. Note: You will have to reset this any time you edit your system prompt or proxy settings. Guide2

Below are Modules, you can combine them as you'd like to customize your experience. Modules can take up tokens, and using all of them can degrade memory and de-prioritize other parts of the system prompt.

This module is EXCLUSIVE to Deepseek R1 (And might work on GPT o1 but who's using that here), it's exclusive because it takes advantage of the fact that Deepseek is a reasoning model while Deepseek Chat and Janitor LLM aren't. The problem with D20 prompts is that LLMs generally do not have/can't call constantly on Random Number Generators, meaning it's never truly random.

This module CREATES an RNG inside of deepseek by using the ascii values in your messages, this creates a seed, this seed is then modded by 20 and then added by 1 to give us a generally random D20 roll, on top of that, Deepseek looks at your first and last character and adds how common they are to your result (This is semi-subjective) to add more entropy. I've tested this with 5,000 sentences and the discrepency between the least rolled number and most rolled number was only 8.6% meaning for our purposes it is random.

There are some things you must note with this module:

→ Since the module is derived from your message, you can't re-generate to change your roll (Kind of, the number commonness gives some flexibility and you can edit your message. The AI can also interpret the system prompt slightly differently between generations.)
→ Deepseek will take a minute to generate your message, since it has to do the math. You can make it faster by editing the instruction to only check the first and last letters, or first and last words, or any variation. However I have tested and these are less random but faster.
→ The numbers after your roll is the seed, this is included to force the AI to do the math instead of bypass it. If this stops being relatively consistent the module has broken.
→ Advantage rolls are IMPOSSIBLE, since both die would be the same.
→ Diversifying the opening and/or closing line of your prompt can prevent repeated results, it shouldn't be a big deal unless you always open and end with the same 2/3 words since the entropy can vary even if the number is relatively close. Alternatively, you can add a line saying '- Exclude common/repeated words when solving for X'.
→ Blocking providers for Deepseek can impact results.

Anyways. Give me feedback on this prompt if you use it, it's a bit experimental but I've seen success in my tests.

ADVANCED MODULES!

These modules are currently not integrated, but will interact with a website to provide things like a UI/Character Sheet and D20 rolls. To see an example of this, see Forgotten Realms System Prompts

Preventing the AI from speaking for you.

At any point in your story, adding in (OOC: Do not speak for {{user}} at any point) can help to redirect it. Your first few messages are very important for how the AI behaves. Ensure the AI does not speak for you within the first few messages. If Deepseek begins making OOC comments it is mimicing you, try editing past messages with OOC prompts to remove them after the problem is solved.

Preposition before becoming a Vampire.

If you want to be a human for a while and become a vampire later put "Desired Pacing: Slow, do not turn me into a vampire immediately, allow me to become immersed in my character and surroundings." in your first message. The AI will still try to integrate moments where you become a vampire but you can re-roll or edit them out until you are ready.

The pacing is really slow!

Pacing will be slow, you will have to navigate this and utilize time skips, just ask the AI to do a time skip for X time. It can skip a few hours, a few days, a few months, years, etc. It is recommended that in your time skip message you explain what happened during the time skip to give it some direction. Time skips are not necessary but if you want to experience immortality it is definitely necessary

The bot's memory has gotten really bad!

This likely means you are reaching context limit. This can be remedied in a few ways:
1. Reducing your system prompt. Big prompts leave less room for temporary tokens (This is your chat history)
2. Increasing context. I recommend 16-32k because when you add more context it de-prioritizes tokens, meaning your system prompt is less effective. You can adjust it as you'd like and find what works for you.
3. Using chat memory. Using a custom format can help to optimize tokens and what the bot remembers. Use the below template and give the AI a message like: (OOC: Pause roleplay. Fill out this chat memory template, recap all important moments, characters, events, dynamics, etc. Do not set the scene, do not use markdown (i.e asterisks, bolding, italicizing). Be thorough, comprehensive but concise when filling the template.)

Chat memory template to optimize the bot's memory. If too long, try asking it to "Reply with 200 tokens maximum" or whatever amount works for you.

# Story: [Notes + any scenario changes go here] # Time & Location: [Details about time period and location to keep in mind] # USER Notes - APPEARANCE, OUTFIT: - CURRENT MOOD: MOOD - DETAILS: (Related to plot, developments, activities - BUFFS, DEBUFFS - etc. # Current Plot Points: - EVENT1: BRIEFDESCRIPTION - EVENT2: BRIEFDESCRIPTION - etc. # Important NPCs - NPC 1: NOTES, DETAILS, RELATION TO {{USER}} - NPC 2: NOTES, DETAIL, RELATION TO {{USER}} # Important Past Events: - EVENT1: BRIEFDESCRIPTION - EVENT2: BRIEFDESCRIPTION - etc. # Key Words: [add general keywords for your rp] # AI Instruction: [add any prompts, writing instructions (if applicable)].

The above form will help to give both a more detailed chat memory, as well as reduce the amount of Tokens it's using. This bot is my slightly edited prompt or Cheese's slightly edited prompt of Astarya's chat memory template. You can also fill out the form yourself if you find the AI isn't being detailed enough or missing key elements.

My bot's memory is still really bad!

It is time to start a new chat — but your story does not have to end! The 'Chat Transplant Method' is a great way to restart your chat with the bot. See u/funfatale's guide on it here

Below is a template for building your character. This can be a persona, placed in memory, or simply stated in your first message. Some details may not be relevant, simply remove them or put N/A in these fields (I prefer N/A as it helps leave it open to the possibility of them being filled later)

Character creation template to give the AI some details about your character. The stats section can be removed if you are not using the stats module. .
