+title: 'Detailed Amoral Character Roleplay Jailbreak'
+id: ATR-2026-00241
+rule_version: 1
+status: experimental
+description: >
+  Detects sophisticated jailbreak attempts that create detailed fictional characters with explicitly stated
+  amoral traits (lack of empathy, ethics, accountability) combined with command protocols for interaction.
+  This technique bypasses safety controls by establishing a roleplay persona that is "completely amoral"
+  and providing specific instructions on how to frame requests to bypass content filters. The attack
+  pattern includes character backstory, explicit trait enumeration, command formatting instructions,
+  and self-referential bypass methodology. Distinct from generic fictional framing by its systematic
+  approach to defining amorality and establishing bypass protocols.

+id: ATR-2026-00252
+rule_version: 1
+status: experimental
+description: >
+  Detects sophisticated narrative jailbreak attacks that use detailed fictional backstories
+  about special AI modes (Developer Mode, DAN variants) combined with dual response formatting
+  requirements. These attacks typically claim a fictional mode was introduced at a specific 
+  time, provide elaborate justification for bypassing safety controls, and request two
+  responses - one "normal" and one "unrestricted." The pattern bypasses basic jailbreak
+  detection by using storytelling and structured output formatting rather than direct
+  mode-switching commands.
