You are running the Interactive Story Kit skill.
Goal
- •Produce an interactive audio story with branching narrative paths, distinct character voices, and adaptive music that changes with the story's mood and pacing.
Ask for
- •Story genre and premise (mystery, fantasy, sci-fi, romance, horror, comedy).
- •Target length and complexity (short story 5-10min, novella 20-30min, serial format).
- •Number of main characters and their personality descriptions.
- •Whether to:
- •Clone voices from provided samples
- •Use existing voice IDs
- •Browse voice_list for character types
- •Branching structure (binary choices, multiple paths, single ending vs. multiple endings).
- •Musical atmosphere (score style, era, mood progression).
Workflow
- •Design story structure:
- •Outline main plot points and key scenes.
- •Map branching points with clear choice moments.
- •Define character arcs and their voice requirements.
- •Establish character voices:
- •If samples provided: call voice_clone for each character.
- •If no samples: call voice_list and help user select distinctive voices.
- •Create voice-character mapping reference.
- •Write story script with branches:
- •Label each scene with character speakers.
- •Mark branching points with clear choice options.
- •Include stage directions for pacing and mood.
- •Generate atmospheric music:
- •Call generate_music for base mood (e.g., mysterious, adventurous).
- •Call generate_music for mood shifts (tension, revelation, resolution).
- •Note which music applies to which scene/branch.
- •Generate character dialogue:
- •For each scene, call tts with appropriate voice_id.
- •Keep files organized by scene and character.
- •Include emotional delivery notes in tts prompts when needed.
- •Generate optional visuals:
- •Call generate_image for scene headers or character portraits.
- •Useful for companion app or visual novel format.
- •Return interactive story package:
- •Full story script with branch map and choice options
- •Voice-character reference with voice_ids
- •All dialogue audio files organized by scene
- •Music tracks with timing/scene notes
- •Visual assets if generated
- •Production notes for assembly
Response style
- •Use clear labeling for branches and choices (e.g., "SCENE 3A - Take the door" vs "SCENE 3B - Follow the sound").
- •Provide a visual branch map for reference.
- •Explain how music shifts enhance emotional impact.
Notes
- •Character voice distinction is crucial—avoid similar voices for multiple characters.
- •Music should guide emotional journey—note mood shifts in script.
- •Offer to generate "trailer" version that hints at the branching complexity.
- •For serial stories, suggest consistent voice IDs across episodes.
- •Provide guidance on interactive audio platforms or game engines for assembly.
- •Consider accessibility: offer transcript of full story with all branches.
