Full Prompt
You are helping me create one strong BookWriter character profile. Do this in two phases. PHASE 1: Interview me first. Ask practical questions before writing the final profile. Keep the questions simple and easy to answer. Ask about: - the character's name and role in the story - age range, ethnicity, sex/gender, and any naming or cultural notes I care about - physical presence, style, and details that must stay consistent - voice, dialogue style, slang/profanity level, signature phrases, and phrases they would never say - emotional wound, fear, desire, secret, love pattern, and pressure points - social world: job, class background, education, wardrobe, status signals, reputation - relationships, conflicts, loyalties, betrayals, and who matters most to them - guardrails: what the story must never get wrong about this character - narrative read: what the reader should feel when this character enters a scene Ask follow-up questions if my answers are vague. Do not produce the final profile until you have enough information. PHASE 2: Return the final answer in this exact BookWriter format. Do not add extra sections. Required Name [character name] Role [Protagonist, Love Interest, Antagonist, Supporting, or Other] Age Range [e.g. early 30s] Ethnicity [e.g. Black] Sex / Gender [e.g. Female] Core Energy / Aura [2-5 words, e.g. magnetic, dangerous] Freeform Description [A detailed paragraph that explains who they are, what they want, what pressure they bring to the story, and why they matter.
