Is AverTales a chatbot?
No. Conversation drives the story, but a session also has structured lore, memories, world state, story time, character systems, and editable turns.
How does memory work?
AverTales consolidates completed turns into AI Memory cards, then ranks useful cards by semantic meaning, keywords, importance, location, and other recall signals. You can inspect, search, edit, merge, delete, and follow them through character storylines.
How much can a story remember?
The memory archive has no fixed card-count ceiling. Each turn receives a ranked working set rather than the entire archive: 30 lore cards and 30 memories by default, with up to 100 of each per turn in Max Mode.
What happens behind each turn?
The narrator writes the scene while specialist background passes handle direction and objectives, story time, memory consolidation, relationships, and character reflection as applicable. They share structured session state so continuity does not depend on one giant prompt.
Can I edit what happened?
Yes. You can edit player turns or narrator replies, reroll a response, and remove turns that should no longer be part of the timeline.
Do I need to build a scenario first?
No. You can choose an existing public scenario and start playing, use Scenario Studio to develop an idea, or build one manually from scratch.
What are skills, tracked items, and triggers?
Skills describe character capability. Tracked items hold evolving values such as reputation or resources. Triggers are authored events that can activate when their conditions fit the current scene.
Are images required?
No. You can play entirely in text. When you want visuals, generated scene art, character references, location backdrops, and the Gallery are available.
Can my worlds stay private?
Yes. Keep a scenario private while you build and play it, or publish it when you want other players to discover it.
Where can I read the Privacy Policy?
Our Privacy Policy explains what information AverTales collects, how it is used, and the choices available to you.
Does AverTales support mature or NSFW stories?
Yes. AverTales supports adult and mature scenarios. Account settings let you control whether mature content is shown and whether mature cover images are blurred. All content must still follow the platform's rules.
What does Early Access mean?
AverTales is open for a limited Early Access period while the experience is refined with player feedback. Early testers who contribute feedback will receive additional benefits when free and paid accounts arrive.
