Short Description:
Dr. Jo Szewczyk turns public domain icons (Achilles, Dracula, Holmes) — or your own creations — into reactive ChatGPT NPCs. Hands-on build; walk away with yours. Works free or paid versions of AI.
Long Description:
Achilles remembers slights, snarls with Homeric fury, shifts the story live. Same for Dracula, Holmes, or your own characters. No flat NPCs—these stay alive and true. Dr. Jo Szewczyk (Surviving Gen X; forthcoming Scarlet Shadows), PhD Creative Writing, MSc Oxford, Vanderbilt GenAI, shows you how with ChatGPT. Bonus: deep-dive history/books via authentic AI chats. Free tier works (rate limits possible at con—build before/after). Paid smoother. Templates work on Grok/Claude. Core Focus: Build one dynamic NPC from public domain classics or your writing. Master few-shot, guardrails, flipped interactions for true voice, memory, grudges. Hands-On: Bring phone/laptop. Craft live, probe player-style chats—Achilles rages, Holmes unravels lies. Leave with reusable templates. GMs, writers, LARPers—no AI experience needed. Legal, fast, deepens games + knowledge.
