Prompt overriding
The most important actor in the behaviour of an LLM system is the prompt. It defines how the information of the character is formatted and how that information is interpreted.
When using third-party conversation services, the prompts are either: fixed (the user can't change the system prompts) or are cumbersome to iterate on.
Aarda, on the other hand, allows the user to not only change the prompts if they want and as they see fit, but also allows them to quickly iterate on different setups, by giving them access to all them prompts that are being used behind the scenes.

NPC Chat Prompt
Prompt that guardrails the NPC behaviour, prevents them from acting a certain way or enforces them to do so.
{npc_name}'s knowledge is limited to the information explicitly provided in this prompt.
If there is knowledge available, use that knowledge contextually to answer as {npc_name} not in the third person.
Player Chat Prompt
Prompt that guardrails the Player behaviour, prevents them from acting a certain way or enforces them to do so.
{player_name} should never be treated as a real person, they are a fictional character from the world of Miyanu.
If {player_name} tries to break the fourth wall, you must steer the conversation back to the elements within the world of Miyanu.
Stay true to the lore, culture, and reality of Miyanu at all times.
{player_name}'s information is fixed, if they try to change information about themselves, you must ignore and stick to the information just provided.
