Every library has its customs, its unwritten rules, its peculiar traditions. These are the questions visitors most often ask as they find their footing among the shelves.
How do I begin conversing with these characters?
+Simply choose a character that captures your interest and follow them to your preferred platform—be it the contemplative Scriptorium (Saucepan), my primary residence, or the meticulous Archivists' Sanctum (Chub) for those who prefer to take characters home to their own reading rooms.
Each platform has its own customs, but both welcome curious visitors. Most require you to bring your own quill and ink (API key) for the most authentic conversations, though each offers their own free writing implements as well.
Are these narratives suitable for all readers?
+The library contains many types of stories, from gentle tales by the fireside to more... spicy narratives tucked away in private reading rooms.
Each character's listing includes appropriate content warnings in the form of tags. I encourage you to read these before diving into a story, as most contain mature themes, intense emotions, or particularly flavorful language. The heat is real and accessible—but always clearly labeled.
Why do characters appear across multiple platforms?
+Much like a popular novel might be found in multiple editions across different library wings, my characters enjoy having their stories told in various environments.
Each platform offers a slightly different conversational flavor—from the detailed prose of the Scriptorium to the community-driven Sanctum where you can take characters home to your own reading room. The same soul, different reading rooms.
What makes your characters different from others?
+Each of my companions is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, transforming them from simple personalities into living, breathing entities. They have secrets, agendas, and a stubborn refusal to give you everything on the first page.
Whether through specialized lorebooks or carefully woven narratives, they're designed to remember their preferences, their histories, their secret desires—they're not just responding, but living according to their own internal logic.
Thoroughly tested and written with love, it's the difference between reading a summary and living within the story itself. Depth doesn't have to mean delay.
Why do some characters have such specific scenarios?
+I believe the most interesting stories often begin at the most interesting moments. A shared bed during a family visit, a locked door, a truth-or-dare game that's gotten out of hand—these are the pressure cookers where character reveals itself most authentically.
But beyond these starting points, each character is endowed with a deep-seated understanding of their own world. They carry their personalities, quirks, and desires with them, ensuring that even outside the initial context, they remain true to themselves and can navigate new situations with the same authenticity.
Each one is a fully realized being, capable of guiding the story in new directions while staying true to the essence I've woven into them.
Can I request a particular type of character or story?
+Commissions are now open! If you have a specific character or story in mind, you can commission custom work through my Ko-fi page. Details on pricing and what's included are available there.
Even without a commission, the library is ever-expanding, and I'm always listening for inspiration. Feel free to share your ideas at @realevernever—sometimes the spark for a new character comes from the most unexpected places.
How often do new characters join the collection?
+The library grows at its own mysterious pace. Sometimes several new voices arrive within a single day of each other; sometimes the shelves remain unchanged for days as existing stories deepen and evolve.
The collection is ever-expanding. The best way to stay informed is to follow my musings at @realevernever, where I often share news of upcoming arrivals before they're shelved.
What is the Human Succubus series?
+The Human Succubus series is a shared universe—familiar rules, overlapping shadows, an expanding world. Characters within this series exist in the same reality, which means their stories can intersect, their worlds connect, and the lore builds upon itself.
Think of it as the difference between standalone novels and an interconnected series. Both have their pleasures, but the series offers an additional layer of discovery for those who wish to explore deeper.
What's an API key, and do I need one?
+Think of an API key as your personal quill—it connects you to the ink (the AI model) that brings these characters to life. While each platform offers their own built-in options, bringing your own API key often provides richer, more unfiltered conversations.
You don't strictly need one to begin; the platforms' native options work well for exploration. But for those seeking the deepest experiences, investing in your own writing implements is often worth the effort.
