Multi-Character Chat ​

AICHIKI allows you to expand a one-on-one chat into a multi-character scene by inviting additional characters. This creates a group roleplay with several characters and your identity (your persona).

This guide explains exactly how to use the feature and what to expect.

1. Start a Chat Normally ​

  • Open any character's profile and tap Start Chat
  • This creates your base conversation

2. Open the Chat Menu ​

  • Inside the chat, tap the three dots in the top-right corner
  • A menu will slide up
  • Choose Invite Character

3. Select the Character You Want to Invite ​

You'll see a full list of characters:

  • Bookmarked characters appear at the top
  • You can scroll or use the search bar

Tap INVITE to select a character.

You can invite as many characters as you want.

4. Set the Scene for Their Entrance ​

After tapping INVITE, you'll be taken to a page where you write the instructions for how the invited character should enter the story.

This text tells the system:

  • How the new character appears
  • What they know about the situation
  • Their relationship (if any) to your identity or the other characters
  • Why they are joining
  • What is happening in the scene at that moment

You can write in first or third person and choose any style you want.

Examples:

  • "You hear shouting and rush into the dungeon corridor."
  • "She enters the library quietly and notices the two of you talking."
  • "My identity knows you, so you recognize us immediately."
  • "He arrives because he has been searching for the king as well."

When finished, tap INVITE again in the top-right corner.

5. Wait a Few Seconds ​

There is no loading screen yet, so the app may appear still. This is normal.

The system is processing your invitation in the background.

After a short wait, the chat will update and show:

  • Your instruction message
  • The new character's first reply
  • A confirmation that they have been added to the chat

6. Viewing Invited Characters ​

The top header will now show small icons representing every character currently in the chat — including the original one and any invited characters.

These icons serve two purposes:

  1. To show which characters are currently in the chat
  2. To remove a specific character (swipe right on the character row, then tap the X)

7. Removing a Character ​

To take a character out:

  1. Swipe the row of character icons to the right
  2. Press X next to the character you want to remove

They will leave the chat immediately, but the conversation continues with the remaining characters.

How the System Chooses Who Speaks ​

AICHIKI decides who answers next based on:

  • The context of the scene
  • What is happening in your messages
  • Which character fits the moment

You can also directly address a specific character in the group if you want that one to reply.

Known Limitation

The system may sometimes prioritize the character the chat was originally started with. This is a known limitation and will be improved in upcoming updates.

Current Limitations ​

This feature has been in AICHIKI for a while, but due to other priorities — system upgrades, major bug fixes, and core stability improvements — it hasn't yet received its full update.

As a result, it still has some known issues:

  1. All replies may show the original character's avatar and name — even when another character is answering.

  2. The AI tends to prioritize the original character — it may forget about invited characters, respond mostly as the first character, or struggle to keep multiple voices active at once.

  3. It may ignore when you directly address a specific character — because the system still defaults to the original character's priority.

  4. Group roleplay may feel inconsistent — the system was built earlier and hasn't yet been modernized for complex multi-character scenes.

INFO

All of these issues are planned to be fixed in a future update once higher-priority improvements are completed.

Summary ​

Inviting characters allows you to build larger, more dynamic scenes:

  • Expand any chat into a group conversation
  • Guide each character's entrance
  • Add as many characters as you want
  • Remove characters anytime
  • Address specific characters directly (with current limitations)
  • Continue the story with your identity included

Even with its current limitations, the feature already supports rich multi-character storytelling and will be improved further.
