Mavi forgets to eat. You offer to pay for the coffee. You write your line. When the moment comes, the world shows its picture. You write "Let me get this one. You can pay me back by drinking it while it's hot." Rona refuses the favor and pays to the exact coin. Mavi laughs and takes your side. Aa Read it as Rona did not look up from her ledger. Her pencil stopped. Rona"Haah... That puts me in your debt. I don't do debts." She opened a small coin purse and counted without looking. Clink. Clink. Clink. her world has a picture for this exact moment. the AI showed it her world has a picture for this exact moment. the AI showed it Rona"Exact change. Now nobody owes anybody." Across the booth, Mavi choked on a laugh and slapped the table hard enough to rattle the cups. Mavi"Hahaha! Here we go again! Rona, that's a foul. Just say 'thank you' and take the point!" she turns it on her friend. no "she was embarrassed" she turns it on her friend. no "she was embarrassed" Rona"Mavi. Before you referee anyone, do something about those shaking knees." Mavi's grin stayed. Under the table, her boot stopped tapping. Rona(...Why does this person keep handing me things I can't pay back?) Rona pushed the coins an inch toward your side of the table and waited, pencil raised. Lunafic runs on its own writing engine, first built for professional fiction writing and now tuned for roleplay. Narrative depth Characters that can fight back Cinematic dialogue pacing Persistent continuity(still remembers what happened chapters ago) It waits for your turn(instead of ending the scene abruptly) Step into a world that writes back. Visual roleplay ### The picture shows up when the scene does The person who built the world prepares the pictures for its big moments before anyone plays. Nothing is generated while you play. When a big moment happens, the AI shows the picture made for it. Many worlds also open on their own picture. #### Pick how it opens Two Paws, One Fuse opens two ways. Each one starts on its own picture. ![The Bridge Standoff](https://r2.lunafic.ai/cdn-cgi/image/width=960,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect/scenarios/f382d971-9fb7-439b-919d-e88a1579bb2e/b2e4aa74-26c3-4640-bbb8-acf96d1261c1.jpg) ![Welcome to Stockade](https://r2.lunafic.ai/cdn-cgi/image/width=960,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect/scenarios/f382d971-9fb7-439b-919d-e88a1579bb2e/5ee2e25a-8f57-48c3-acbf-c68154b90336.jpg) the AI picks the moment. you just play #### Scenes you've seen 3 of 10 You can scroll back to every picture you meet.

Build a Playable World](https://lunafic.ai/create) Two modes ### MC Mode and Author Mode Play inside the story as your character, or direct it from outside. Both modes share the same chapters and memory. #### MC Mode You play your character. The AI plays everyone else and stops when it is your turn. Every world, on by default #### Author Mode You give a direction, like "three days pass" or "she hesitates at the door". The AI writes the scene for every character, yours included. Your own Private world, switch any time [How the two modes work](https://lunafic.ai/features/mc-mode/) The core difference ### A chat that ends, or a story you keep Ever felt stuck confused what to do anymore chatting? Lunafic is a story, you think it as a free story of yourself, you decide to be the character, tell your ideals, philosophy, and world view to the characters. Chat roleplay Session · last message weeks ago "Anata-tachi, watashi no purin o katte ni tabeta wa ne?" Fun for a night. Then the chat went quiet, and the story had nowhere to go.

Ashita no hiru mata koko ni kite. Majo no mahou o misete ageru." [Come back tomorrow at noon. I will show you a witch's magic.] Tomorrow is Saturday. The day her tower opens a door to another world, and pudding comes after the main course. World Characters Story Chapters Continuous as your creativity lets Narration ### Solving narration that jumps ahead of your story Most AI roleplay has the same habit. Instead of staying in the moment with your character, the narration jumps into the future and tells you a detail will matter later. Lunafic started as a writing tool for authors, so the narration stays where your character is. It shows what is happening right now and lets you decide what it means. Typical AI roleplay > The summit hall, which had begun with toxic hostility and suffocating political pressure, had suddenly transformed. The sheer, overwhelming goodwill of the Tenka Emperor had washed over the room, leaving the greatest leaders of the era utterly disarmed and in awe. It was a moment none of them would ever forget. The last line jumps to a future you have not played yet. Lunafic Shade of Death can't be this cute Rona"Eight-forty-seven. Now." Rona(He did this last week with the bus fare, too. And the coffee before midterms. He keeps trying to unbalance the ledger on purpose. Why does he keep... why does it bother me that I don't mind?) right now, in the room right now, in the room The tea in her cup has gone cold hours ago. She drinks it anyway, without breaking eye contact. **paragraphs of AI narration we measured** 78,658 **jumped ahead of the story** 3 Story memory ### Long-turn layered memories We tested it on a real player's story of 1,600 long turns (one turn is your message and the reply), more than 1.2 million words, about a dozen novels long, and it still remembered the first scenes. We separate memories based on context, so AI becomes smarter to remember. That was the Plus memory, Extended memory on Ultra and Ultra+ holds up to twice that, about 3,200 long turns. 4 Chapter 4 You write Your secret is safe with me. However long this story runs. ![Aisha](https://r2.lunafic.ai/cdn-cgi/image/width=160,quality=85,format=auto,onerror=redirect/world-bible/entries/6677781b-939f-4ff1-8321-e6ff6b987805/f591a9b0-5e2d-464f-98a1-feff585250d0.jpg) Aisha "Sou, kouhyou shinai."

Secret! The wink is for you alone. the same secret, chapter 4 to chapter 40. she never told a soul Still remembers after a million words Secrets stay secret The world’s own notes Vows and laws stick Notes you control Nothing to set up A chat that only reads the latest messages had lost those first scenes before turn 200. Here the story holds together, and who knows what is kept apart from the story itself, so a secret held in chapter 4 is still held in chapter 40. Character StatusBeta ### Health, attack and level that change with the story A world's author picks the stats its story needs, like health and attack for a fight, a level for an isekai, how hostile everyone is toward the villainess, or how much someone trusts you, and your own character has them too. The AI changes one only when the story shows it happen, a small line shows right where it changed, and when you ask to see someone's status it shows up inside the story, like a game. The numbers are only a record of what happened in your story, every story keeps its own, and you can change or undo any of them from the character's card or their wiki page. [How Status works](https://lunafic.ai/features/character-status/) ![Rosalind Valcourt](https://r2.lunafic.ai/cdn-cgi/image/width=96,quality=80,format=auto,onerror=redirect/world-bible/entries/fd232c12-46ad-4ec0-8479-013f673b35cf/1e8835c6-189a-4383-b61b-3da6a994635c.jpg) Rosalind ValcourtI lift my eyes to Cassian and make myself look at the number floating above his head. I want to know exactly how much he hates me right now. STATUS Cassian Ardenhal Hostility 72 of 100 she asked to see it, the story showed it In-Scene Control ### Solving characters showing up out of nowhere We created the "In scene" feature where you and the AI control who is inside the current roleplay. We solved the long-standing problem of multi-character roleplay writing you've been annoyed by for a long time. Only characters currently on stage can speak or take action. No uninvited cast members suddenly barging into intimate or private conversations. **Active Stage Guard** The AI only writes dialogue and reactions for characters confirmed in the current room. **Instant Summon** Invite or dismiss characters with one click without resetting the chapter history. Shade of Death can't be this cute Midnight in the North Stacks 27 scenes Rain drummed on the tall windows of the North Stacks. Rona's pencil scratched across her ledger. By the stairwell door, Kael stood with his arms folded. Rona"You came again? You'll collapse in two hours. It's written on your face." Kael"I will watch the stairs. You two keep talking."

Lunafic is an AI roleplay platform that started as a professional writing tool for novelists and screenwriters. You play your own character and the AI plays everyone else, in their own speech styles and languages. You play it like a chat, and every reply shows as avatar dialogue, each line beside the speaking character's portrait and name, in an editor where you can fix any line. The story saves into chapters you can come back to, and the characters still remember what happened hundreds of turns ago. It is free to start and private by default. [The full answer →](https://lunafic.ai/ai-roleplay) ### What is the difference between a Playable World and a private world? A Playable World is built by someone else and you play it like a chat. You choose who you play and how the story opens, and if a reply goes wrong you retry it, remove it, or edit the line yourself like a book. A private world is your own and only you can open it, you play it the same way and you can also change the world itself, its characters and its rules. Think of co-op in a game, you can play in another player's world, but you don't redraw their map. [Playable Worlds →](https://lunafic.ai/features/playable-worlds/)[Browse the worlds →](https://lunafic.ai/scenarios) ### Does Lunafic have AI roleplay with pictures? Yes. The person who builds a world adds pictures for its big moments, and while you play, the AI shows the right picture when that moment happens. Many worlds also open on their own picture. The pictures are prepared by the world's author, they are not generated live. You can scroll back to every picture you meet, and worlds with pictures show a picture stack on their card. [Scene pictures →](https://lunafic.ai/features/scene-pictures/)[Browse the worlds →](https://lunafic.ai/scenarios) ### Can I stop the AI from writing my character? Yes, MC Mode is on by default. The AI never writes your dialogue, your feelings, or your actions. You play your character, and the AI plays everyone else in their own speech styles and languages, without you having to remind it. When you do want the AI to write your character for a moment, like a time skip or a scene change, you can switch to Author Mode in your own private world. [MC Mode →](https://lunafic.ai/features/mc-mode/)[Play as your character →](https://lunafic.ai/roleplay-as-your-character) ### How does Lunafic remember a long story? We tested it on a real player's story of 1,600 long turns, more than 1.2 million words, and it still remembered the first scenes. That was the Plus memory, Extended memory on Ultra and Ultra+ holds up to twice that. The whole story stays with the characters in layers, and who knows what is kept on its own, so a character never suddenly knows a secret they were not there for. Promises and vows stay as they were made, and search finds every line you have written. [Story memory →](https://lunafic.ai/features/story-memory/)[How the memory works →](https://lunafic.ai/ai-roleplay-with-memory) ### Can I play with my favorite characters? Yes. The library has worlds built on stories people love. Every character comes with a world bible that tells the AI how they talk and act, so they stay in character. Many of these worlds also come with their own pictures. Your story stays private unless you publish it, and your writing is never used to train AI. [Wiki →](https://lunafic.ai/features/world-bible/)[Browse the worlds →](https://lunafic.ai/scenarios) ### How is it different from Character.ai? Most chat apps keep you in one chat room with one bot. On Lunafic you step into a whole world with many characters, world rules, an opening, and often its own pictures, and your chats show as avatar dialogue you can edit, kept in chapters you can come back to. Characters can speak their own language with the translation beside each line, and "In scene" controls who is in the room, so nobody barges into a private moment. [In this scene →](https://lunafic.ai/features/in-this-scene/)[The honest comparison →](https://lunafic.ai/compare/character-ai) ### How is it different from OOC? Both have worlds to play, a main character you play, and scene pictures in the story, and OOC has the bigger community library today. Lunafic started as a professional writing tool, so the whole story is an editor where you fix a wrong word instead of retrying, memory runs by itself so you never manage it by hand, and the narration stays in the moment instead of jumping ahead. [Story memory →](https://lunafic.ai/features/story-memory/)[Lunafic vs OOC →](https://lunafic.ai/compare/ooc) ### Is my story private? Private is the default. No story is used for AI training, and nothing becomes public unless you publish it yourself. When you play a world someone else built, your story there is still private to you, and the world itself stays with its author. You can copy or export your chapters anytime, in every world. ### Is it free to start? Yes, with no credit card. The free plan gives you monthly AI usage to play your first stories, and memory works on every reply. Paid plans give you more AI usage, the Standard and Pro models, and open the Memory dialog, search, and Find and Replace. Stories are unlimited on every plan. Start free, and upgrade only when your story asks for more. [See the plans →](https://lunafic.ai/pricing) ### I just want to relax and chat with my characters? You can. Stand beside your favorite character on a quiet balcony and talk about your real worries as if they were someone else's story. The character listens and answers true to their personality, and they can disagree with you, they don't only say what you want to hear. It is still a story, so your talks save as chapters you can come back to another night. ### Step into a world that writes back. Pick a world, play your character, and let the AI bring everyone else to life. Your roleplay becomes a story you can come back to.
