I've used it to write backgrounds and character descriptions.
That explains all the six-fingered mutants I've encountered lately.
QuoteMe: I'm going to define what an sdesc is: an sdesc is a short description of a character in a text based game (e.g. a MUD), that follows a format similar to "the tall, dark-haired man" or "the silver-eyed young woman." Keeping to a limit of 37 characters and including races such as elves, dwarves, and half-elves, generate 10 random sdescs
ChatGPT: Sure, here are 10 random sdescs for characters in a text-based game:
The lithe half-elf rogue
The burly dwarven blacksmith
The regal elven archer
The scarred human mercenary
The wiry half-elf scout
The stocky dwarven miner
The graceful elven mage
The rugged human ranger
The nimble half-elf thief
The stout dwarven brewer
Me: redo that, but do not use trades or occupations in the sdesc
ChatGPT: Sure, here are 10 revised sdescs that do not include trades or occupations:
The tall, fair-haired elf
The sturdy, bearded dwarf
The agile, dark-eyed half-elf
The scarred, weathered human
The lithe, silver-eyed elf
The stocky, red-bearded dwarf
The graceful, sapphire-eyed half-elf
The rugged, sun-tanned human
The quick, hazel-eyed half-elf
The stout, broad-shouldered dwarf
Me: redo that, with the following corrections: 1) our dwarves are hairless; 2) only include adjectives that would be observable phenomena
ChatGPT: Sure, here are 10 revised sdescs that follow the new parameters:
The stocky, bald dwarf
The nimble, dark-eyed half-elf
The lithe, blonde elf
The scarred, weathered human
The stout, hairless dwarf
The agile, fair-haired half-elf
The graceful, emerald-eyed elf
The rugged, sun-kissed human
The quick, hazel-eyed half-elf
The broad-shouldered, bald dwarf
Me: agility is not an observable phenomena in this circumstance. redo it, but do not mention agility or quickness
ChatGPT: I apologize for the mistake earlier. Here are 10 revised sdescs without mentioning agility or quickness:
The sturdy, bald dwarf
The lithe, blonde elf
The scarred, grizzled human
The broad-shouldered, hairless dwarf
The nimble, dark-eyed half-elf
The graceful, emerald-eyed elf
The rugged, sun-kissed human
The stout, bald dwarf
The quick-witted, hazel-eyed half-elf
The agile, fair-haired half-elf
Me: Again, agility and wit are not observable purely physical characteristics. Try it again.
ChatGPT: I apologize for the confusion earlier. Here are 10 revised sdescs without mentioning any attributes that are not purely physical:
The bald, muscular dwarf
The lithe, fair-haired elf
The scarred, weather-beaten human
The hairless, stocky dwarf
The nimble, dark-eyed half-elf
The graceful, emerald-eyed elf
The rugged, sun-kissed human
The sturdy, bald dwarf
The hazel-eyed, sharp-featured half-elf
The broad-shouldered, blonde dwarf
Me: Explain to me how a hairless dwarf could be blonde
ChatGPT: I apologize for the oversight in my previous response. You are correct that a hairless dwarf would not have any hair, including on their head. Therefore, it would not be accurate to describe them as "blonde." A more appropriate description might be "the pale-skinned, stocky dwarf" or "the muscular, hairless dwarf." Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
Me: Alright, it looks like you understand what an sdesc is for our purposes. Generate a new sdesc with the above parameters, but this time also include a full paragraph description that matches the sdesc you generate, and includes a full-body description. E.g. hair, facial hair, scars, height, build, tattoos, or anything else that a person with that matching sdesc might look like.
ChatGPT: Certainly, here's an example of an sdesc and a corresponding paragraph description:
Sdesc: The lithe, fair-haired elf.
Paragraph Description: The lithe, fair-haired elf stands at around six feet tall, with a slender build that is emphasized by their lithe movements. Their hair is a bright, almost ethereal shade of blonde, falling in soft waves around their face and down to their waist. Their pointed ears are framed by their hair, and their almond-shaped eyes are a bright, clear blue. Their features are delicate and refined, with high cheekbones and a narrow chin. Despite their slender build, the elf moves with a fluid grace that suggests great agility and speed.
Me: That was pretty good! But this time, generate an sdesc and paragraph description that reflects a harsh, dangerous, dark-fantasy world where violence is common and everyone is dismal and nasty
ChatGPT: Sure, here's an example of an sdesc and corresponding paragraph description that reflects a harsh, dangerous, dark-fantasy world:
Sdesc: The scarred, weathered human.
Paragraph Description: The scarred, weathered human stands at around five and a half feet tall, with a stocky build that suggests a lifetime of hard physical labor. Their skin is tanned and leathery, marked with countless scars and lines that tell the story of a life of violence and struggle. Their eyes are a steely grey, narrowed and suspicious as they survey their surroundings with a watchful gaze. They wear simple, utilitarian clothing that is well-worn and patched in places. The human carries themselves with a tense, coiled energy that suggests they are always ready for a fight. They move with a heavy, deliberate tread that leaves no doubt as to their strength and power. In this world of darkness and danger, the scarred, weathered human is a survivor who has learned to trust no one and fear nothing.
Me: Awesome. Now I want you to keep all of the above in mind, and generate an sdesc and paragraph description relating to the following keywords: man, scarred, tanned, long-haired, tall, wiry, tattooed, strong
ChatGPT: Sure, here's an example of an sdesc and corresponding paragraph description that incorporates the given keywords while still reflecting a harsh, dangerous, dark-fantasy world:
Sdesc: The scarred, tattooed man.
Paragraph Description: The scarred, tattooed man stands tall at around six and a half feet, with a wiry build that belies his strength. His skin is tanned and weathered from a life spent outdoors, and covered in scars that hint at past battles and narrow escapes. His long, unkempt hair falls in a wild tangle around his shoulders, framing his chiseled, handsome face. His piercing blue eyes are watchful and alert, scanning his surroundings with the practiced ease of a seasoned warrior. His body is covered in a web of intricate tattoos, each one a mark of some past triumph or trial. He moves with a fluid grace that suggests he is always ready for action, and his wiry frame holds a surprising amount of power. In this dark, dangerous world, the scarred, tattooed man is a force to be reckoned with, a skilled fighter who has survived countless battles and come out the other side stronger and more dangerous than ever before.
Not great, but pretty neat.
Certainly a reasonable start!!
if it had an API an online tool could be made for newbies, both for desc and background
