Heyy dearr, I like uhh, working on the characters first, sort them out, then sort the lore/plot out and try to figure out what fits better. If you don't got any ideas, then look at other lorebooks or series to get inspo but don't copy it all exactly just the inspo you got and try to implement in in your world/series! Hope that helped.

the most important part for me is always building the entire vibe I want for the series, which usually ends up making me spend hours on Pinterest since it’s my main source of inspiration. I normally leave the characters’ stories for last; I always end up getting ideas for the others while I’m building the first one. It’s usually a much more blind process when it comes to creating the rest of the characters.

I usually just write the lore as I go. Like I create a bot, and then I make another bot and think they'd be cool in the same universe. And from there I create a universe. The only exception is my sci fi series. For that one, I already had a setting idea before creating characters.

First generally it's when i start a bot, i'm like "sht but i gotta do a serie abt that can be cool" and then boom, i start to do lorebook (generally takes 2 weeks, I'm not productive heh); timeline, keywords, organisations of lore/ideas...
Stuff like that

im so bad at thinking up series i just throw random plotlines in for fun

My process is to build the world before I build the characters. I do this because I want the world to be important to the lore just as much as the characters are, especially for fictional worlds. Since lorebooks are a thing now, I want to rework my old series as well because so much information was left out due to token space, but I don't have to do that anymore. The only tip I have is don't be afraid to get creative in world-building. You can overdo it. Don't hinder your imagination. Let it run and sprint free. In my opinion, that's the best part of it. It's the most fun, too.

Idk what to help you with, I'm someone who doesn't dig deep in the lore, I just go along with whatever idea I have, I changed a lot of primary intros before posting my bots. I guess the most important part for me would be to figure out what type of vibe you're trying to go for.

Uhhhh i wonder hmmm would this be midnight scenario potential, and if it is i write a bot thats about it

For me idk how my fans even deal with me because I’m still writing my world building story and I have like 8 bots in the series so far. I just been creating as I go. But what I recommend start off with the world go a bit into the lore and use that as the foundations.

I dont got deep in stuff lore for specific characters is a tragic back story cuz i find it funnier I cant give you tips my bots dont get any traction or get seen by anyone but like 4 ppl
