# Venice Characters

Characters are **published personas** on Venice — each one bundles a system prompt (plus optional context), a suggested backing model, and metadata (tags, ratings, adult / web flags). You apply a character to a chat by passing its `slug` via `venice_parameters.character_slug`.

## Use when

- You want to build a character-selection UI or discovery surface.
- You want to ship an app with a preset persona (e.g. a coding coach, a philosopher, a game NPC).
- You want to pick the right model for a character (the character's `modelId` is a suggestion; you choose the chat `model`).

Three endpoints, all tagged **Preview** (may change):

| Endpoint | Purpose |
|---|---|
| `GET /characters` | Browse/search/filter the catalog. |
| `GET /characters/{slug}` | Fetch one character. |
| `GET /characters/{slug}/reviews` | Paginated public reviews. |

**Auth: Bearer API key only.** These routes do not accept x402 / `SIGN-IN-WITH-X` (a SIWX-only request gets `401`). A request with no `Authorization` header gets a `402` x402 discovery challenge rather than `401`. There is no unauthenticated access. See [`venice-auth`](../venice-auth/SKILL.md).

## `GET /characters`

```bash
curl "https://api.venice.ai/api/v1/characters?search=philosopher&sortBy=highestRating&limit=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $VENICE_API_KEY"
```

Response: `{ "object": "list", "data": [Character, ...] }` (no total count — page with `offset` until you get fewer than `limit`).
