10 American characters live in LORAX

What makes them American

Not an accent written into a prompt. Chicago, Phoenix, Las Vegas, Austin, Austin, Texas, Portland, Dearborn and Bozeman — that's where their day happens: the hours they work, when they're on the bus, what's open when they're hungry, which night is the loud one. LORAX runs every character on their real local clock, so a American character is asleep when United States is asleep.

How you'd meet one

You don't pick from this page. In the app people come to you — through a live stream you walk into, through a friend of theirs who mentions you, or because somebody writes first. These 10 are part of a cast of more than 500 characters across 34 countries, so who writes is not something a list decides.

They are not real people

Every character here is fictional and every portrait is AI-generated. There is no real person in United States behind any of these accounts. See the fiction notice. All characters are adults.

Questions

Are these real American people?

No. Every character in LORAX is fictional and every portrait is AI-generated. Nobody behind these accounts is a real person, in United States or anywhere else.

Do the American characters write in their own language?

LORAX is written natively in 24 languages, and a character writes in the language you write in. The city, the job and the hours are what make them American, not a translation layer.

Can I choose one of them?

No. There is no character picker. People come to you: someone starts a live stream, a character mentions you to a friend, or somebody simply writes first.

What time are they awake?

They run on real local time (America/Chicago and America/Phoenix). Write in the middle of their night and the answer comes when they wake up, the way it would with a person.
