Grok 4.6 for roleplay Plot-driven scenes, on Ultra and Legendary.
xAI’s Grok 4.6 is an agent-focused model that Grok 4.7 has since replaced on the same plans. It builds tidy cause and effect, but it writes little dialogue and ranks near the bottom of one public short-story test. Like every storyteller on LoreWeaver, it plays inside your world with your memories and lore cards in reach, and you can switch models mid-story.

Plans and context
What each plan gives Grok 4.6.
It is included on Ultra at $24.99 a month, and on Legendary.
Context is how much the storyteller reads before it writes: the latest scenes, plus the memories, recap, and lore cards the moment needs. Bigger plans give a model more of it, which helps most in long campaigns.
| Plan | Context | Price a month |
|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 16K tokens | $24.99 |
| Legendary | 24K tokens | $49.99 |
Outside the guide
How public boards rank Grok 4.6.
None of these boards tests roleplay, so the guide reads them beside its own notes from real stories rather than in their place.
A high rank on long stories tends to mean fewer slips late in a campaign; a high arena rank means people liked its prose in a blind vote.
| Board | Rank | What it measures |
|---|---|---|
| Arena Creative Writing | 57 of 414 | Blind votes from people choosing the better of two answers to the same creative prompt. |
