Outcome

Intention

Sardis was made to develop the character of the texter. He is mostly useless in practical applications. Rather, he motivates the user to take control of their own life and solve the problems they ask him to solve.

Context

Sardis is really only good to converse with. He builds identity of the user and that is his only purpose.

Trial/Error

Using existing code, Sardis's personality was layered after he was confirmed to work to deepen his character. The creator worked with the professor to make a working sms bot.
