merge

This is a merge of pre-trained language models created using mergekit.

Merge Details

The goal of this merge was to make an RP model better suited for role-plays with heavy themes such as but not limited to:

• Mental illness
• Self-harm
• Trauma
• Suicide

I hated how RP models tended to be overly positive and hopeful with role-plays involving such themes, but thanks to failspy/Llama-3-8B-Instruct-MopeyMule this problem has been lessened considerably.

I haven't done extensive testing yet, but the bit of testing I did do has shown noticeably good results in lessening how positive the bot is in its writing style.

If you're an enjoyer of savior/reverse savior type role-plays like myself, then this bot is for you.

Merge Method

This model was merged using several Task Arithmetic merges and then tied together with a Model Stock merge.
