    I agree! It would be ideal if the list was extended to character archetypes. I often need to add characters that are story catalysts but not supporting characters, not antagonists, not minor characters… Having to choose out of 5 possibilities is limited. I wish we had other options such as “Family Member” “Mentor” “Ex” etc. I have to fill this information manually which is a hassle every time.

    I would like to see Animals (especially dogs, cats, and horses) given more prominent status. I have added two dogs to my list of characters, and AI ignored them until maybe the last chapter. I want animals to become a more integral part of my story instead of relegated to almost nonexistent. I suppose this means integrating them into a substantial part of the outline and beats for most of the chapters.

      Whether you create them as a named Character or a custom Worldbuilding element (pet), named animals will be used/referenced by the AI whenever it sees you making an effort to include them (in beats or prior text). If you’d like the AI to include animals in a more ambient, you may need to give it a sort of a nudge—establishing the setting as an old western town where everyone is riding horses, for example, or outlining a fantasy setting where everyone has a familiar.
