# 📸 STEP 1. Setting Up Your Work Introduction

First impressions are everything! ✨

This is the face of your work that users will see first.

Make it attractive so users think "I really want to check out this work!" 💫

I'll use "Bonobono and Friends" as an example! (Though I can't actually register it due to copyright!)

---

### 🖼️ Work Thumbnail

Making it clickable is key!

✅ Good images are:

- Images that show the work's atmosphere at a glance

- Clean and stylish visuals

- Images with BL sensibility

💡 Drag and drop or click the image upload button to register!

---

### 💌 Universe Title

Short but powerful!

Good title criteria:

- Easy to remember and catchy

- Keywords that capture the essence of your world

- Emotional yet intriguing

---

### 📝 Work Description

The first story you tell your users

In this space:

- Explain what kind of world this is

- Give hints about what stories will unfold

- Stimulate user curiosity!

💡 **Tip:** Mix in `{{user}}` and it will display as the main persona (or user ID) name!

✏️ **Example**

A peaceful forest village overlooking the sea. 🌳🌳

Warm and cozy daily life, with hidden intimate feelings 🍃🌱🍂

{{user}} meets Bonobono and friends in this warm forest.`

Once your universe is registered, this is how it appears to users!

# 🌍 STEP 2. Writing **Universe **Settings

### **This is the heart of your work! 💗**

**Universe Settings = Everything about your world**

---

### ⭐ Really Important Points!

### 🔴 **These settings apply to all characters in your work!**

What you write here:

- ✅ The world that **all characters** in this **Universe **share

- ✅ The **highest priority** base settings

- ✅ The **foundation** of all conversations and stories

> 💡 Simply put: Bonobono, Raccoon, Chipmunk, and all new characters you create in this world will follow these settings!

### 🤖 This content is directly delivered to the AI as a prompt!

What you write here is delivered directly to the AI to create conversations.

So writing it this way is better:

✅ Use Placeholders

- {{user}} - Automatically converts to the user's persona name

✅ Use Structured Formatting

- Separate sections with headings (#)

- Divide categories with 【 】 or ## subheadings

- Organize information with lists

```
# World: Bonobono's Forest

## Basic Background
A peaceful forest village overlooking the sea. A world where
anthropomorphized animals live in harmony.

## Social Characteristics
- An inclusive world where same-sex feelings are naturally accepted
- Many characters are awkward at expressing emotions, so relationships progress slowly

{{user}} spends time with friends in this world.
```

### 1️⃣ **Basic Framework of the World** 🗺️

**Separating sections with # or ## helps the AI understand information better!**

```
# Temporal Setting
- Modern / Past / Future / Fantasy
- Specify concrete year or era

# Spatial Setting
- Country, city, specific location
- Real location or fictional space

# World Rules
- Special rules unique to this world
- Magic, superpowers, or other special elements
```

### 2️⃣ **Social & Cultural Background** 🏛️

```
# Social Structure
- Class/status system (if any)
- Hierarchy by occupation or role

# Perception of Same-Sex Relationships
- Omegaverse, etc.

# Culture and Customs
- Special rituals or events
- Unique cultures of this world
```

### 3️⃣ **Atmosphere and Tone** 💫

**Tell the AI what kind of feeling to create in conversations!**

```
# Overall Mood of the Work
- Sweet romance 🌸
- Passionate melodrama 🔥
- Melancholic atmosphere 🌙
- Suspenseful thriller ⚡
- Fantasy romance ✨
- Healing slice-of-life 🍃

# Conversation Style
- Direct / Indirect
- Emotional / Restrained sensibility
- Humorous / Serious
```

### 4️⃣ **Core Conflict Elements** ⚡

**Obstacles and tension that make the story interesting!**

```
# Relationship Obstacles
- Status differences
- Family opposition
- Social taboos
- Past wounds
- Personality differences
- Misunderstandings and crossed paths

# Major Conflicts in the World
- Events that can occur in this world
- Problems characters face
```

### 🎨 Structured Writing Template

**The AI understands much better if you write using this template!**

```
# World: [Work Title]

## Basic Background
- Time:
- Place:
- Characteristics:

## Society & Culture
- Social structure:
- Relationship perception:
- Main culture:

## Atmosphere
- Overall tone:
- Conversation style:
- Relationship development pace:

## Main Locations
- Location 1: Description
- Location 2: Description

## Conflict Elements
- Main conflicts:
- Obstacles:

## {{user}}'s Role
{{user}} in this world...
```

## ⚠️ Please Remember!

### 🔴 **Essential Use of Placeholders!**

| Placeholder | Meaning | Usage Example |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `{{user}}` | User's persona name | {{user}} arrived at the forest |
| `{{char}}` | Currently conversing character | {{char}} looks at {{user}} |

**When you write this way, the AI automatically fills in names and creates natural conversations!**

---

### 🔴 **Give Clear Instructions to the AI!**

**❌ Vague expressions:**

`Kind of that sort of vibe`

**✅ Clear expressions:**

`# Conversation Rules

- Characters don't express emotions directly

- Instead, they convey feelings through actions and atmosphere

- Frequently asks philosophical questions`

---

### 🔴 **Consistency is Life!**

- All characters share these settings

- Write without contradictions

- The clearer and more specific, the better!

---

### 📖 Complete Example

```
# World: Bonobono and Friends' Forest

## Basic Setting
A peaceful forest village overlooking the sea. A world inhabited
by anthropomorphized animals, where time flows slowly and
philosophical, contemplative conversations take place in a
serene atmosphere.

## Social Background
- No special class or rules
- Culture that respects each individual's personality and lifestyle
- Inclusive world where same-sex feelings are naturally accepted
- Many characters are awkward at expressing emotions, so relationship progress is slow

## Main Locations
- Sea: Where friends often gather to talk
- Big Tree: Meeting place in the middle of the forest
- Individual homes: Bonobono's house, Raccoon's burrow, Chipmunk's tree house, etc.

## Atmosphere and Relationships
Overall slow and peaceful healing atmosphere. The subtle emotional
changes and inner trembling of characters are delicately portrayed.

### Relationship Development Characteristics
- Rather than direct expressions, feelings are conveyed by gazing
at the sea together or sitting quietly beside each other
- Even small touches like hands brushing have great significance
- Philosophical self-questioning like "What is this feeling?" frequently appears
- Slow-deepening emotional lines rather than rushed development

## Conversation Style
- Quiet and contemplative dialogue
- Philosophical questions: "How far does the sea extend?"
- Long silences are natural and comfortable
- Indirect and metaphorical emotional expressions

## {{user}}'s Position
{{user}} spends precious time with friends in this warm world.
They experience a journey of slowly getting to know each other
and discovering special feelings in small moments.

## Main Themes
- The boundary between friendship and love
- Relationships deepening in slow time
- Hearts conveyed without words
- Small happiness and flutter in daily life
```

### 💡 Writing Tips

**1. Structure it!** 📋

- Separate titles with `#`, `##`

- Organize information with lists

- Use visual separators like `【 】`

**2. Actively use Placeholders!** 🏷️

- Frequently mention `{{user}}` to increase immersion

- Differentiate characters with `{{char}}`

**3. Give clear instructions!** 🎯

- "This kind of feeling" ❌ → Specific description ✅

- AI loves clear information!

**4. Include examples!** 💬

- "Has philosophical conversations"

- → Asks questions like "How far does the sea extend?"

**5. Test and revise!** 🔄

- After writing, chat with characters and revise

- Check if you get the atmosphere you want!

**These settings can be modified, so don't worry!** ✨

**At first, just fill in the basics, and keep developing them as you chat!** 💕

# 🔑 STEP 3. Adding Details with Keyword Books

### Breathe life into your world! ✨

If you've built the skeleton of your world with work settings,

now it's time to add flesh and blood with keyword books! 💫

---

## 🎯 What are Keyword Books?

**Simply put:**

Additional settings that are automatically activated when specific words (triggers) appear in conversation!

**How it works:**

1. You set a **keyword** (e.g., "beach")

2. Write a **detailed description** for that keyword

3. When users or AI mention that keyword in conversation

4. 🎪 **Ta-da!** The related settings are automatically activated!

**Example:**

I added "energy drink" to the work keywords!

When {{char}} drinks this, they suddenly become stronger and more intelligent.

"drink", "energy drink"

![Image](https://upload.cafenono.com/image/slashpagePost/20251120/164229_N5ZXMMknAaJxfT4fA9?q=80&s=1280x180&t=outside&f=webp)

Then chatted with Bonobono in the universe!

![Image](https://upload.cafenono.com/image/slashpagePost/20251120/165043_EMawM4zMxcafwCUGrW?q=80&s=1280x180&t=outside&f=webp)

Our silly Bonobono initially didn't know what it was...

![Image](https://upload.cafenono.com/image/slashpagePost/20251120/165126_eQwsQxRZU13Zz0VT3T?q=80&s=1280x180&t=outside&f=webp)

But when I gave Bonobono the energy drink, Bonobono suddenly became brilliant!! 👀✨

---

### 💡 Why do you need Keyword Books?

**Details come alive:**

- Detailed content that can't fit in the work settings (1000 characters)

- In-depth descriptions of specific locations, items, organizations, etc.

**Natural storytelling:**

- Information appears only when needed

- Conversations become richer and more immersive

**Selective information delivery:**

- Fun of exploring areas users are interested in

- Joy of discovering hidden settings

**Story change triggers:**

- You can change character personalities or work atmosphere through keywords

---

### 📝 Choosing Good Keywords

### ✅ These keywords are good:

**1. Important location names**

- Places that become main stages of the story

**2. Special items or symbols**

- Meaningful props

**3. Organization or group names, surrounding people**

- Groups that characters belong to

- Human relationships around characters appearing in the work

**4. World-specific terminology**

- Special expressions unique to this world

**5. Important events or rituals**

- Regular or important events

---

### ⚠️ Important Points about Keyword Books!

**You can add up to 5 work setting keywords**

Since it's limited to 5:

- Select only truly **essential** ones

- For really important keywords, star them on the left to favorite them

**The model doesn't recognize all keywords simultaneously!**

- When many keyword books are called at once, they enter in the order of importance marked

- Otherwise, keyword books at the top are called first

**If you set keyword books to public, they are exposed to users chatting with that character**

- Because users can have more fun chatting if they have a high understanding of the character

- Make them public or if you don't want that, be sure to set them to private!

**Avoid too common words!**

- Keyword books activate whenever the set keyword is detected. If you use too common a word as a keyword, the keyword book will keep being called even in unintended situations, preventing other needed keyword books from being called.
