[ SLANG ][ AI COMPANIONSHIP ][ MACHINE CULTURE ]

FORCE: Machine CultureUNIVERSE: AI CompanionshipCLUSTER: AI Companion Culture

Near-synonym for greeting, referring specifically to the exact first message a character sends, used on platforms that prefer literal function-naming over the more narrative 'greeting' label.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"The first message barely matters on this platform, people skip straight past it."

LORE & ORIGIN

Alternate naming convention for the same character-card field as greeting, reflecting a difference in platform vocabulary rather than a difference in the underlying feature.
