## [ChatGPT - Story Continuity Archivist ### ChatGPT is your AI chatbot for everyday use. Chat with the most advanced AI to explore ideas, solve problems, and learn… chatgpt.com](https://chatgpt.com/g/g-6a52aaacf1e8819184078a261b466908-story-continuity-archivist?source=-----b1d8e5ef6a85---------------------------------------)

I needed a better way to keep up with characters, places and events and how they related to each other. I designed this custom gpt to do that. But, it has rules;

* It cannot search the web
* It cannot co-author
* It cannot give you ideas

It can only answer questions related to the characters, places or events that you provide it. If you add another character, it will track it, the same goes for a new place or event.
