ABSTRACT
This paper considers the generation of emergent structure, as a source of creativity. It discusses emergent narrative in which narrative structure is generated dynamically by interaction between synthetic characters, as a cognitive model of bottom-up character-based authoring. It considers the affectively-driven agent architecture FAtiMA, and the use of a story-facilitator agent and character-based double-appraisal mechanism as means of dealing with narrative-level constraints.
