Doki Chat

A good character gives
the reader a way in.

Doki Chat is the search spelling used here for Dokichat, the character conversation platform. Learn how its public creator separates a character's presentation, personality and first message—and why publishing is its own decision.

Five form groups, five jobs

Give each field
a clear responsibility.

These groups and limits are visible in Dokichat’s public creation form. The examples are original non-explicit notes for a fictional adult character. Character limits are maximums, not targets to fill.

  1. 01

    Basic settings

    Identity and presentation, plus public/private, originality and age-rating choices. Set the audience before writing for it.

  2. 02

    Public information · up to 2,000 characters

    A short invitation: a 38-year-old sound archivist needs help identifying an unusual recording. Give a reader a reason to enter without revealing every later clue.

  3. 03

    Personality · up to 50,000 characters

    A patient listener who asks for evidence and admits uncertainty. This is authoring space, not a claim that every conversation turn has a 50,000-character memory window.

  4. 04

    Opening dialogue · three separate inputs

    Backstory: 1,000 characters. Explain where the recording came from. First Message: 2,000 characters. Ask whether to inspect the train announcement or the bird call first. Status before message: 200 characters. A compact state could be “Recording not identified; choosing the first clue.” Leave the reader’s answer unwritten.

  5. 05

    Advanced settings

    A separate group exists. Only rely on advanced controls whose meaning is exposed to you; a section title is not proof of a particular model or memory feature.

Make room for the next turn

Information is not
an invitation.

A closed opening: the archivist explains the entire mystery, identifies the recording and announces that the reader agrees.

An open premise: the recording contains a train announcement and a bird call. The archivist asks which clue deserves attention first.

The second version offers a decision. It does not require a dramatic biography or tell the reader how to feel. This is an authoring principle, not a claim about a generated reply.

Dokichat publication diagram: classify a creation as Original, Partially Original or Fanwork, then choose its audience. Current rules reserve search/recommendation eligibility and creator incentives for Original characters. Deletion does not promise removal of earlier chat histories.

Originality and audience
are separate settings.

Dokichat's creation rules distinguish Original, Partially Original and Fanwork. They currently reserve search/recommendation eligibility and creator incentives for Original characters. Your own writing does not automatically make borrowed character art fully original.

Private
Choose a solo writing exercise when the concept is still changing.
Public
Write a clear invitation and classify the creation accurately before seeking an audience.
After deletion
The form warns that people who already chatted may retain their history. Do not promise a complete withdrawal of every public copy.
Know what privacy changes

Hidden from discovery
does not mean unprocessed.

The privacy policy explains chat and character processing by model/cloud providers, moderation, deletion controls and exceptions for retained copies. Visibility governs who can find a character; it does not mean the operator cannot process its content. Keep sensitive identifying information out of a fictional exercise.

Before releasing a character

Questions about Doki Chat

Which Dokichat does this site cover?

The character platform at dokichat.club. The similarly named dokichat.net voice-and-gaming product is a different destination. This independent publication does not provide Dokichat accounts or chat.

Does a large personality field guarantee long-term memory?

No. An authored description and a conversation-memory system are different mechanisms. Our memory comparison explains what can actually be inferred from the documented controls.

Can a fan character appear in search?

Current Dokichat creation rules reserve search and recommendation eligibility for Original characters. That is a platform rule, not a guarantee that every original submission will be displayed.

Is Private the same as deleting a character?

No. Visibility limits who can find and use it. Deletion has separate effects and retained-history exceptions. The form and privacy policy should be read together.

What should the first message leave out?

Avoid resolving the whole scene, deciding the reader's actions or repeating every background fact. Offer one understandable situation and a meaningful next choice.
