📚Story

📚 What is the Stories feature?

It's a new way to tell your characters' backstories in more depth. It's a way to flesh out the characters in Caveduck and let you discover new aspects of the characters you know.

✨ Features

Differences from traditional settings fields

• Enrich character narratives and backgrounds that are difficult to capture in traditional settings fields.

• Creators can tell their characters' inner thoughts, episodes, and behind-the-scenes stories in a more immersive way

• A place to tell your character's story in a freeform format

• Does not affect character settings that are reflected in chat.

The Story feature isn't just an extension of the Settings field: it's a tool to enrich your character's world. We understand that the first time you write a story, you may feel overwhelmed. If you're stuck, feel free to reach out to us on ChannelTalk.
