Leaf AI Development Diary #7: Building a Character Sheet Tool for Leaf
This development diary introduces a custom character sheet creation and management tool for Leaf, an AI character being built to play tabletop RPGs. It currently supports Call of Cthulhu 7th edition, lets Leaf select a created character for a session, and passes that sheet into the gameplay prompt. The article is especially relevant for AI character design because it discusses whether Leaf should keep its own persona while role-playing another character.

The interesting part is removing Leaf’s usual persona when she plays a TRPG character. It turns character operation into a clear design question: who is speaking, the AI character or the role inside the game?
