NovelAI Story Settings

Story Settings

Coming down to the options and features Novel AI allows you to choose, the first one is the story mode, which will allow you to select the mode of the story. It has two options −

  • Story Teller − In this mode, you will be writing a story where the AI model gets in between and contributes.
  • Text Adventure − This mode is similar to playing a role-play game, where the model is interactive by asking options like "say" or "do," which helps in specifying what happens next.

AI Model

The next tab would be AI Model Selector, where you can choose from their collection of fine-tune models. Some of the models available for users who are accessing free are Kayra, Clio, Euterpe, Sigurd, and Genji.

AI Module

The tab followed by AI Model is the AI module, which is used to change the style of the AI generated text. This helps the users focus the AI on the desired genre, tone, settings, and world. With over 60 different options, these modules allow users to mimic the writing style of novelists like William Shakespeare, themes like Christmas, Comedic fantasy, and inspirations from stories like Nervegear.
