What are you looking for, or trying to accomplish?
In character answers? I guess that's pretty much what people look for.
To run locally, or to use with Horde, OpenRouter, or some specific API? Free or paid? Are you looking for something compatible with character cards, worldbooks, etc? Do you need to be able to save or backup locally? Do you need RAG?There's so many options, I don't even know what to suggest without knowing more about what you need.
I don't have a computer avaliable, so I don't think running locally would be possible. I just want a API that plays in character. Character cards and worldbooks are not needed. (what's a rag btw?)
Honestly, the best way to accomplish this is to use one of the major LLMs and build your own character scaffolding within their toolset. Like, a custom GPT with projects, or a custom Gemini Gem holding knowledge files. You kind of have to build it all yourself unless you want to talk to someone else's pre-configured AI, but it works quite well once set up.
