Margo alternatives

Margo creates structured character headcanons, missing scenes and scene prompts from a character name, an angle, a tone and a canon distance. It is free and runs in the browser. When replacing it, decide whether you need written character notes, short scene-level output, multi-chapter continuity, full drafts, or interactive chat, and whether a paid option is acceptable.
