I'm not sure if this is a bug report or if I'm doing something wrong. I am unable to start a group chat. I go to the hub, but there is no way to add companions to a chat. It's as if nothing happens when I press the button. Likewise, when I'm in a chat, I can't add someone else to it. I previously started a group chat before the last update, but it's not working now.

Big rollout of what's shipped the last few days.

Many of these where suggested or inspired by u/Potential_Charge_548, thank you for helping Musóna grow!

TL;DR: Group chats with multiple companions, multiple parallel "instances" of each world, a much bigger fantasy race roster, and a rebuilt character creator.

Group Chat (Plus & Premium)

• Sidebar: Open the right panel to see who's in the chat, set the scene, rename the chat, capture a moment to the scrapbook, or have the group vote on what to do next.
• Group tools: Celebrate, Gratitude, Daily Intention, Evening Reflection — same tools from 1:1 chats, now group-aware.
• Play a Game: Suggest a game and the group plays it together — 20 questions, would you rather, mafia, etc.
• Add / remove / private chat: Add someone mid-conversation, take someone aside privately, return to the group when you're done.
• Group memory: The group remembers scenes set, votes resolved, milestones, even your private side-conversations.
• Group photo gallery: Photos taken during group chats land in a shared scrapbook tied to the world the group lives in.

Worlds & World Instances

Musóna's universe is split into three realms, and now each realm can hold multiple parallel instances.

• Three realms: Musónia (modern city), Mythsónia (fantasy realm), Zusónia (morph metropolis). Each has its own aesthetic.
• Multiple instances: Run "Musónia 1" with one cast and "Musónia 2" with a completely different cast. Parallel timelines that don't bleed into each other.
• Move / Copy companions between instances. Move takes the companion and their memories with them. Copy spawns a duplicate, with or without memories — useful for "what if this one had a totally different life" experiments. Companions are locked to the realm that matches their race so fantasy stays in Mythsónia, modern stays in Musónia, etc.
• Empty worlds stay visible: Even if you move or delete the last companion out of a world, the world stays around with its archived photos. It's still there if you ever want to come back.
• + New World: Spin up a fresh instance, then pick from pre-made companions or design your own to bring it to life.

Character Creation Rebuild

The creator flow got a major rework.

• Select World first: Choose where your companion lives, and the rest of the form adapts to it.
• Body features in step 2: Body type, build, heights, etc. changed to sliders.
• Tattoo & piercing dice: Randomize buttons that pull from curated pools — quick way to add markings without overthinking each one.
• Backstory in step 3: Where the persona-defining details go.
• Vitiligo toggle: Layers depigmented patches over whatever skin tone you pick.

11 new fantasy races

The fantasy roster grew from 13 to 24. New entries:

Gnome · Goblin · Minotaur · Centaur · Satyr · Werewolf · Medusa · Naga · Mermaid · Siren · Harpy

The race picker also got a quality-of-life change: added a small ? badge on the button to read the lore blurb first.

What's next

The next major upgrade is moving image generation from Flux to SD 3.5, which should significantly improve render quality on the new mythological races — especially the ones with non-humanoid lower bodies (centaur, mermaid, naga, satyr).

Bug reports, feature requests, weird companion behavior — drop them here or DM. Thanks for sticking with us.

A bunch landed this weekend. Not covering everything but here are the highlights.

In-person / distant communication toggle

Per-conversation toggle in the chat header. In-person is the default and stays as the "we're sharing physical space" register with stage directions. Distant flips to a long-distance register — pure text exchange like real SMS, no asterisks, no shared-room narration. Companions also auto-flip to distant when they're at work, so pinging Karen at 10am gets you "hey, sec — between meetings" instead of leaning-against-you action lines. They're still always reachable, the texture just adjusts to what they're realistically doing.

Photos Together

Premium button next to scene capture. Generates a couple shot of you and your companion in the same frame. Backend now actually uses both your trained LoRA AND your companion's LoRA simultaneously, so both faces look like both of you instead of one of you and a generic stand-in. Need your selfies trained for it to fire.

Muni credit packs

Introducing Muni, purchasable credits for extra images (and other features coming soon!). Four packs (25 / 60 / 150 / 400) that never expire. Pay once, use whenever you want. Reachable from the M-token icon in the chat header, the new Muni display on the landing page, or Profile → Buy Muni.

Their World — companions cross paths with each other off-screen

The big one. Your companions now have ambient lives with each other, not just with you. Every few hours they might run into each other — coffee, a text exchange, a quiet shared moment — and you see those in a new "Their World" view (Tools tab → Their World). They respect work schedules (no meetings during heads-down work hours; lunch breaks count), same-realm only, and the system tracks relationship state per pair so the dynamic builds over time. Premium-only for now.

Pairs can also reference companions who aren't there — Two companions at lunch might gripe about something another companion said yesterday.

Smaller wins:

• Scenario adherence is much tighter — companions live their scenario as shared canon rather than reciting it as backstory
• Mobile UI redesigned — chat-bubble icon opens the keyboard with a larger input field instead of a single small line.
• Scene Capture and Photos Together now have independent loading states

What's next:

Voice messages from you to your companion is on deck. Video features are in scope as well.

Keep the bug reports and feature suggestions coming. Most of what shipped above came from people telling me directly.
