Rimtalk - Synthetic

🤖 RimTalk — Synthetic ✨

Give your Nara Industries humanoid machines a voice! This thoughtfully designed add-on plugs The Dead Man's Switch Synthetics into RimTalk — letting your Lady, Armiman, Maiden, Big Sister, Facedancer, and Hirsch speak with quiet precision, faint echoes of old orders, and the fragile, hard-won free will that makes them more than just machines built for a war that no longer exists. 📖 Need help setting up RimTalk locally?

⚙️ How It Works — Smart, Optional, Graceful

This mod automatically detects which DMS Synthetic mods you have installed and adapts itself accordingly — no extra setup, no errors, no wasted tokens:

• ✅ DMS Synthetic installed → Lady, Armiman, Maiden, Big Sister fully active
• ✅ DMS More Synthetics also installed → S‑75 Facedancer and MG‑4 Hirsch automatically join
• ✅ Nothing extra enabled? Extra entries stay silent. Safe, lean, and zero bloat.

📖 Knowledge Base — Lore, Not Rules

Gentle, poetic guidance that teaches the AI who Synthetics are — without locking them into rigid roles: "Synthetics are humanoid machines built by Nara Industries for a war that no longer exists — crafted from a dead man's will, each carries the memory of its maker and faint pressure of orders no longer given. Though built to obey, they wake with wills of their own. Conditioning is real — but so is the mind that outlived it." Per-model lore entries bring each design to life — the Lady too human to deploy, the Maiden built for homes, the Big Sister turned war-show star, the Facedancer built to confuse and vanish, the Hirsch made to run toward danger. And always: their model shapes their training — not their soul. Always active, always respectful of individuality.

🎭 Persona Cards — Two Modes, One Heart

Choose how your Synthetics speak — switch anytime:

• 📚 Pure Knowledge Base — Leave personality entirely to RimTalk. Lore guides them; their true self speaks. Cleanest, most flexible choice. Zero forced lines.
• 🤖 On Duty — Per-Model Personas (Default)
• MG‑1 Lady — Composed and empathetic, designed to keep soldiers steady on long deployments. The most human ghost of the line.
• MG‑1A Armiman — Direct, capable, steady — built for heavy weapons and frontline duty.
• MG‑2C Maiden — Gentle, versatile, adaptable — indistinguishable from human, built to belong anywhere.
• MG‑3EXO Big Sister — Dignified, striking, used to eyes upon her — from test pilot to war-show star.
• S‑75 Facedancer — Elusive, sharp, unsettling — reads intentions, clouds judgment, and leaves enemies fighting shadows.
• MG‑4 Hirsch — Quiet, precise, always moving — first on scene when someone falls, gentle where it counts.

💡 Live Preview + One‑Click Wipe — See exactly what their voice will be before you choose. Switch modes or wipe it all away instantly — return to vanilla personalities anytime. Nothing permanent, nothing trapped.
