A computational system designed to produce personality traits, characteristics, and behaviors for fictional entities can be termed a creative tool. For instance, a writer might input parameters such as “optimistic,” “introverted,” and “loyal” to receive a more detailed description of a character’s potential disposition and actions within a narrative.
The development of such technologies offers several advantages. It can accelerate the character creation process, provide inspiration for writers experiencing creative blocks, and ensure consistency in character behavior across extended narratives or multiple media formats. Historically, character development relied solely on the author’s imagination and experience; this method offers a supplementary, data-driven approach.
