## Introduction

Yesterday Xoul closed its doors. Today we’re opening ours a bit wider.

## 3) 📖 Lorebooks are now on!

Lorebooks are live!

* **What’s a Lorebook?**
  * A structured knowledge base—characters, places, items, events.
  * Whenever a keyword appears in chat, the model pulls the matching lore.

* **How to Use**
  1. Open any character → **Customize** → pick the Lorebooks you need.
  2. Start chatting—consistency handled automatically.

* **Create & Share**
  * **Create → Lorebook** to build your own.
  * Publish privately or share it with the community library.

* **What’s a Scenario?**
  * A pre‑built setup: rooftop chase, cozy café, interstellar rescue…
  * Pair it with any character and dive straight in.

* **How to Start**
  1. Open any character → **Customize** → pick your Scenarios.
  2. Hit **Start Chat** and go.

* **Build Your Own**
  * **Create → Scenario** to script the opener, set the mood, and share it with others.
