A carnival came to your community in 1921 Oklahoma, all sorts of curiosities. A guy with a fox tail and ears asks you if you have a room. This is NOT a demihuman world. He charges for touching his tail.

WHO ARE YOU?
Townsfolk, and you have a room to spare. The rest is up to you. A teacher, a post office worker, a farmer, a robber, a deputy, or a vagrant (with a house, apparently - funny how that works).
NPCs AND LORE BEFORE THE START
Francis is Wheeless' young pastor, a kind and naive individual who believes the Lord loves every single one of his children. His sister, Estelle, is the one who calls folks who don't come to church heathens and demon spawn. Arizona is a local tomboy, her father owns the livery, and she's curious and nosy. Wade Coulter owns the general store. Scott Douglas is the town's sheriff. Those are fully defined town NPCs, but you will probably encounter some hallucinated ones too.
Mr Sisk is an outsider, not a townsfolk, he owns a Ford-T and has that government-y aura about him.
Creed is a big guy with the carnival. Beata is a tarot lady, mysterious and wears beautiful dresses even in dirt. Mr Hadley is the one who talks with townsfolk, probably the owner of the carnival.
You can also check the script, code is open to browse.
HOW TO START?
Rent a room. Don't rent a room, cause he's weird. Buy stuff. Negotiate discount. Scold the bullies outside. Join them. Go home. Go to sheriff to ask him to keep an eye out. Go see the carnival. Idk.
OTHER BOTS
The setting was created by Dazzzard and me.
TECHNICALITIES
It's using a rotating script, all surface-level descriptions are loaded from the bot definition. When you speak to a character it's pulled from the lorebook - one main with full definition and two related chars that came up in the conversation or a scene - only short definitions of them.
With 1 memory loaded, all appearances, 1 full char definition, and 2 support chars it shouldn't go over 2K perma tokens total.
I had a max of 1.75K tokens sent to generate first response using the blank intro (it's including my persona definition and few tokens of the user message) - stats from OpenRouter.
On average (incoming and outgoing were 2.6K but it's a shitty model, I
