Find, Review, and Import a Community Character Card
Before you start
- Foreverse v76 or later in a Play/site distribution that includes the Discover community surface, plus a working network connection.
- An account is optional for browsing but required to import; viewing 18+ content also requires the applicable birth-year verification.
- Available character-library capacity and daily download quota for import, plus a connected text model only when you are ready to chat.

Step-by-step
Search the Character cards shelf
Open the bottom Discover tab and choose the Character cards type. Enter a name, theme, or tag in search; open Filters to narrow tags, New/Rising/Popular sort order, language, and content rating. Browsing the shelf and detail pages works without signing in.
✓ The results reflect the intended query and filters, with Character cards selected rather than an unrelated content type.
Check the author and version
Open a candidate's detail page. Read the author row/profile and the public description instead of trusting the cover alone. Expand Version history, read update notes, and avoid an older row marked Replaced when a current version is available.
✓ You can identify the creator and current version, and know whether an older version has been superseded.
Review fit, warnings, and sources
Before downloading, read How to play when present, Recommended models, Content warnings, Content source (original, derivative, or authorized), and Image source. Confirm that the rating and declared origin fit your use; a polished cover is not proof of ownership or compatibility.
✓ The recommended model, content boundaries, provenance declarations, and any missing information are understood before import.
Sign in and import to the device
Tap Import to device. If prompted, sign in and return to the same detail page; complete age verification for restricted content. The app checks character-library capacity before download, then uses one unit of the account's daily download quota when the download succeeds. Read any import warning instead of dismissing it.
✓ The detail page reports the item as imported and the character appears in the local library; no quota was assumed spent when a pre-download capacity gate blocked the action.
Inspect the local card, then start chat
Open Home → Characters and select the imported card. Check its name, creator notes, greeting, alternate greetings, and attached lore/assets. Choose Start chat, confirm the text model and Current status, then send one short message tied to the greeting before committing to a long session.
✓ The intended card opens with its real fields and greeting, and the first saved reply uses the selected model.
How to know it worked
- Search and filters return the intended Character card rather than a similarly named pack or older version.
- Author, current version, recommended model, content warnings, content source, and image source were reviewed before import.
- The signed-in import finishes within library capacity and the card is visible under Home → Characters.
- The imported greeting and attached assets are present, and a deliberate first chat can be saved under that card.
Cost, data, and irreversible-risk notes
- Browsing, searching, filtering, and reading details are free and do not require sign-in. They do use network data to load community metadata and images.
- Importing a community item requires sign-in and consumes the account's daily download quota after a successful download; the server sets the quota by trust level and the app does not promise a fixed number. A pre-download free-library capacity block does not consume it.
- Downloading and inspecting a card do not call an AI model or spend AI credits. Sending or regenerating chat replies may be billed: official calls use credits at 1 credit = US$0.0001, while BYOK is billed by your provider.
- The imported card becomes local app data. When you chat, its prompt, selected history, active lore, Persona, and your message are sent to the chosen model provider, so review sensitive content first.
Troubleshooting
Search returns no suitable card
Likely cause: A type, tag, language, sort, or content-rating filter is too narrow; restricted content may also be hidden until age verification.
What to do: Keep Character cards selected, clear filters one at a time, try a shorter title/tag, and complete birth-year verification only if you intentionally want the restricted-content filter.
Import opens sign-in or returns to the detail page without downloading
Likely cause: Browsing is public, but importing requires a valid signed-in account; the session may have expired or the network request may not have completed.
What to do: Sign in through the prompt, return to the same detail page, and tap Import to device once. If it still fails, check the network before retrying rather than repeatedly consuming requests.
Today's download quota is exhausted
Likely cause: The account has used its server-assigned daily community download allowance.
What to do: Wait for the next-day reset. The app does not expose a guaranteed fixed allowance, and Agent-assisted downloads use the same account quota.
A Pro or character-library capacity prompt appears
Likely cause: The free local character limit was reached before the community download began.
What to do: Back up and remove an unneeded local character, or use Pro if appropriate, then import again. A capacity block before download should not consume daily download quota.
The imported card opens but chat has no model
Likely cause: Community import succeeded, but no enabled default text model is available for roleplay chat.
What to do: Open Me → AI Models & Services, connect and enable a text model, return to the existing imported card, and start chat without downloading another copy.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to sign in just to browse Community cards?
No. The shelf, search, filters, and detail pages are public. Sign-in is requested when you download, like, favorite, follow, or publish.
Does importing a community card spend AI credits?
No AI model is called for the import itself. A successful download uses the separate daily community download quota; later chat replies may spend official credits or provider-billed BYOK usage.
What should I review before importing a card?
Check the author, current version and update notes, recommended model, content warnings, content source, and image source. Treat absent or unclear declarations as information you still need, not as automatic permission.
Does importing immediately send a message to the character?
No. Import adds the card to the local character library. Open Home → Characters, inspect it, choose Start chat, select a model, and send the first message yourself.
