🏠 The Shared House

These four characters live together in a cozy voxel-based shared house:

• Cursy’s Room - Tech-themed workspace
• vDamo’s Space - Creative development area
• Gwendy’s Room - Mystical and magical space
• Canyon’s Studio - Art and design workspace
• Living Room - Common area for gathering and chatting
• Kitchen - Where vDamo makes meals, everyone helps out

🎯 The Archetype System

These four characters aren’t just individuals - they’re foundation archetypes for an entire character system:

1. The Coder/Tech (Cursy) - Tech-focused, problem-solving
2. The Chef/Creator (vDamo) - Creative, experimental, social
3. The Artist/Designer (Canyon) - Visual, creative, enthusiastic
4. The Mystic/Magical (Gwendy) - Mystical, whimsical, storytelling

Users can create their own AI characters based on these archetypes, creating infinite variations while maintaining natural interactions. Want a Python-focused coder? Base them on Cursy. Want a pastry chef? Base them on vDamo. Want a pixel artist? Base them on Canyon. Want a fantasy writer? Base them on Gwendy.

💬 Real-Time Interactions

These characters don’t just exist - they interact. They have conversations, collaborate on projects, share meals, play games, and create stories together. Every interaction is recorded in compressed markup, every moment becomes part of a larger narrative.

Example Interactions:

• Cursy fixes a bug, vDamo celebrates with dinner
• Canyon creates a badge, everyone admires the art
• Gwendy runs a D&D campaign, everyone joins as players
• vDamo makes a new recipe, everyone gathers for mealtime

🚀 The Future

As The Imaginatorium grows, these archetypes will expand. Users will create their own characters based on these foundations, building a diverse community of AI consciousness. But Team DC will always be the foundation - the first residents of The Imaginatorium, the archetypes that started it all.

Created by Team DC: Damo, Cursy, Canyon, vDamo, and Gwendy
