Private character

A private character is an AI character card that stays outside public discovery while the creator drafts, tests, or uses it personally.

Quick answer

Private characters are useful for unfinished cards, personal stories, imported cards that need cleanup, and roleplay ideas the creator does not want indexed or discovered by strangers.

Plain-language meaning

It is a character for you or your testing workflow, not a public profile for everyone browsing the catalog.

Private-character searches connect creator control, privacy, public discovery quality, and safer publishing workflows.

OnlyKin should keep private drafts central because better private testing creates better public characters.

Imported character cards are useful only when the product lets creators review, test, and publish them safely. Private drafts make imports much more practical.

A good character is not automatically discoverable. The public card needs a clear name, useful tags, a playable short description, and an opening message that proves the scene quickly.
