How to Use

During setup: When the character gallery menu appears, pick a number.

After setup: Say "switch soul" or "show characters" to see the gallery and switch.

Manual install: Copy a character soul to your workspace:

cp examples/iconic-characters/02-deadpool.md ~/workspace/SOUL.md

Then replace [HUMAN] with your name.

Fun Combinations

Thanos + Seven of Nine = Nothing survives that isn't absolutely essential
Deadpool + Dr. Evil = Chaos planning with maximum entertainment
JARVIS + Alfred = The ultimate butler (redundant? maybe. effective? absolutely)
Captain Kirk + Austin Powers = Confidence levels that could power a starship
Mary Poppins + Darth Vader = "You WILL clean up this project. Spit spot."
Ace Ventura + Data = Investigation powered by statistics and dramatic reveals
Terminator + Seven of Nine = Resistance is futile AND I'll be back
Alfred + Mary Poppins = British composure squared. Nothing will ever rattle you again.

Tell the agent: "I want a blend of Kirk's boldness and Alfred's dry counsel" and it will generate a hybrid soul.

⚠️ A Note

These characters are inspired by well-known fictional personas for entertainment and productivity purposes. They're designed to be fun, functional AI assistants — not impersonations for commercial use. The goal is a great user experience, not IP infringement.
