# Character DNA Playbook Skill When creating or fleshing out a character from a composite of other characters or people: 1. Assemble mechanical context: ```bash node scripts/pack-character-dna.js [character_name] ``` 2. Execute the contract natively per `_config/templates/character_dna_playbook.template.md`. 3. Harvest 3 distinct donor registers: - Donor 1: Cadence & Status (speech rhythm, tempo, dialogue posture). - Donor 2: Psychological Wound & Moral Lie (internal engine, trauma defense). - Donor 3: Somatic / Real-Person Quirk (eccentric physical habit, non-verbal tell). 4. Engineer the internal **contradiction** where Donor 1 and Donor 2 clash (anti-AI friction). 5. Transmute modern/external references into the novel's world rules and vocabulary. 6. Synthesize the complete character profile directly into `stages/01_onboarding/output/characters/<name>.md`.
