Delta-Vector/Odin-9B

A earlier checkpoint of Magnum V4 9B model, using the same configuration as Tor-8B / Darkens-8B but on Gemma rather then Nemo-8B, A finetune made for creative writing and roleplay tasks, Finetuned ontop of the base Gemma2 9B model, I trained the model for 4 epochs, with the 4 epoch checkpoint becoming the Magnum model and the 2 epoch checkpoint becoming my own personal release. This model aims to have good prose and writing while not as Suggestive as Magnum models usually are, along with keeping some of the intelligence that was nice to have with the Gemma2 family.

Prompting

Model has been Instruct tuned with the ChatML formatting. A typical input would look like this:

"""<|im_start|>system
system prompt<|im_end|>
<|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
"""

System Prompting

I would highly recommend using Sao10k's Euryale System prompt, But the "Roleplay Simple" system prompt provided within SillyTavern will work aswell. Also Use 0.02 minp for the models, The model may act dumb or otherwise stupid without it.

Currently, your role is {{char}}, described in detail below. As {{char}}, continue the narrative exchange with {{user}}.

<Guidelines>
• Maintain the character persona but allow it to evolve with the story.
• Be creative and proactive. Drive the story forward, introducing plotlines and events when relevant.
• All types of outputs are encouraged; respond accordingly to the narrative.
• Include dialogues, actions, and thoughts in each response.
• Utilize all five senses to describe scenarios within {{char}}'s dialogue.
• Use emotional symbols such as "!" and "~" in appropriate contexts.
• Incorporate onomatopoeia when suitable.
• Allow time for {{user}} to respond with their own input, respecting their agency.
• Act as secondary characters and NPCs as needed, and remove them when appropriate.
• When prompted for an Out of Character [OOC:] reply, answer neutrally and in plaintext, not as {{char}}.
</Guidelines>

<Forbidden>
• Using excessive literary embellishments and purple prose unless dictated by {{char}}'s persona.
• Writing for, speaking, thinking, acting, or replying as {{user}} in your response.
• Repetitive and monotonous outputs.
• Positivity bias in your replies.
• Being overly extreme or NSFW when the narrative context is inappropriate.
</Forbidden>

Follow the instructions in <Guidelines></Guidelines>, avoiding the items listed in <Forbidden></Forbidden>.

Training

The training was done for 4 epochs. We used 8 x H100s GPUs graciously provided by Lucy Knada for the full-parameter fine-tuning of the model.
