Multiple Personas

TomoriBot’s personality lives in a persona: her name, avatar, traits, speaking style, and behavior. You can run several personas at once, each a distinct character with its own triggers and webhook avatar. This page is about how she behaves — for what she knows (facts and memories), see Memory.

Creating a Persona

/persona create — build a custom personality from scratch.
/persona generate — have the AI generate a personality from a description and an image. Requires a provider that supports structured output. You can also upload an existing TomoriBot preset or a SillyTavern card here to transform an existing character (see SillyTavern Support).
/persona default — switch to one of the built-in default personalities as a foundation.
/persona export / /persona import — share or back up a persona as a file. Import supports bringing a persona in as an alter with its own triggers and webhook avatar.
/persona remove — remove an alter persona.

A good starting workflow: pick a default or generate one, then refine it with attributes and sample dialogues below.

Alter Personas

Alter personas let multiple characters coexist in one server:

Each alter has its own personality, trigger words, and webhook avatar — so different characters appear with different names and pictures in the same channel.
Multiple alters can respond to a single message, up to the /config trigger-match-limit limit.
Replying to a webhook message continues the conversation as that persona.
Add alters via /persona import (alter option); manage them with /persona and /persona remove.

This is what makes group roleplay and multi-character servers possible. For the runtime details of how triggers route to personas and how webhook identities work, see the architecture reference on multi-persona behavior.

Shaping Personality

Two commands do most of the work of teaching her how to talk and act:

Attributes

/persona attribute add adds personality traits or physical characteristics — for example friendly, red hair, or ends sentences with *Nya~*. Remove them with /persona attribute remove.

Sample Dialogues

/persona sample-dialogue add teaches her how she speaks by example. Use the {user} and {bot} placeholders so dialogues work for everyone (and when you share the persona):

{user} — replaced with the actual user’s name/nickname
{bot} — replaced with her current name

{user}: What's your favorite hobby?
{bot}: Fufu~ I like knitting tiny clothes for tiny plushies~♥

Tips for effective sample dialogues:

Write natural, conversational exchanges.
Bake in the attributes and traits you want her to exhibit.
Demonstrate the tone you’re after, and add variety so she generalizes.

Remove examples with /persona sample-dialogue remove.

Name and Avatar

/persona rename — set what she calls herself.
/persona avatar (or /server avatar) — set her profile picture for this server.

You can also set a custom system prompt with /config system-prompt set to further shape behavior — see Behavior Tweaking.

Sprites (Emotion Avatars)

Sprites are alternate avatar images a persona can switch to mid-conversation to express an emotion or situation — think of them as her facial expressions. Each sprite is a labeled image (for example happy, mad, embarrassed) that she displays in place of her normal avatar when it fits the moment.

How she uses them: the available sprites and their usage notes are given to the model each turn. To show one, she starts a reply line with PersonaName (label):; that line is then delivered with the matching sprite image. If no sprite fits, she replies normally.

Manage a persona’s sprites with the /persona sprites command group (adding and removing require the Manage Server permission):

/persona sprites add — add or replace a sprite: pick the persona, give it a label, upload the image (PNG, JPG, or GIF), and optionally add usage instructions telling her when to use it. Reusing a label replaces that sprite. Each persona has a maximum sprite count.
/persona sprites edit — change an existing sprite’s name, image, instructions, or identity toggle.
/persona sprites remove — delete sprites from a persona.
/persona sprites import / /persona sprites export — back up or share a persona’s whole sprite set as a file.

The identity toggle decorates the message name as Label (Persona) in Discord, which is especially useful for alter personas that speak as distinct characters.
