Description | Usecase

The result of this merge is in my opinion a more vibrant and less generic sonnet inspired prose, it's able to be gentle and harsh where asked. I've personally been trying to get a more spice while also compensating for the Magnum-v2.5 having the issue on my end that it simply won't stop yapping.

This model is intended to be used as a Role-playing model.
Its direct conversational output is... I can't even say it's luck, it's just not made for it.
Extension to Conversational output: The Model is designed for roleplay, direct instructing or general purpose is NOT recommended.

Prompting

Both Mistral and ChatML should work though I had better results with ChatML: ChatML Example:

"""<|im_start|>user
Hi there!<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Nice to meet you!<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Can I ask a question?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
"""
