Let CONAN tell you a story: Procedural quest generation
[article]
2018
arXiv
pre-print
Preserved Fulltext
This work proposes an engine for the Creation Of Novel Adventure Narrative (CONAN), which is a procedural quest generator. It uses a planning approach to story generation. ...
The engine takes in a world description represented as a set of facts, including characters, locations, and items, and generates quests according to the state of the world and the preferences of the characters ...
Additionally, actions will be weighted in accordance with agent preferences, with actions incompatible with the agent's preference having higher cost than those in line with the preferences. ...

In simulation-based training, the use of an interactive narrative system enables the possibility to offer engaging, diverse and personalized narratives or scenarios for different training purposes. ...
An interactive narrative system allows players to proactively interact with simulated entities in a virtual world and have the ability to alter the progression of a storyline. ...
The system uses a plan structure to drive the actions in the story world. One key feature of Mimesis is that it integrates plan-based behavior generation with interactive game environments. ...

Our approach uses a plan refinement technique based on partial-order planning to (a) optimize the global structure of the plotline according to input from a player model, (b) maintain plotline coherence ...
However, recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) suggest that intelligent systems may be used to create dynamic and engaging real-time entertainment experiences. ...
However, in order to start from a complete plotline and arrive at a variation with different quests, we employ both additive and subtractive improvement mechanisms. ...
