November 2025, so many projects, clearly not enough time. The early days of AI are over, and it's 2026 soon. Time flies.

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?

Hippocrates said:

Ars longa, vita brevis!

Naturally, he was correct.

This model is focused on making a strong generalist for varied roleplay and adventure formats. Why do I say generalist? Isn't it a generalist = assistant tasks?

Usually yes, but here the goal was to be flexible in accepting different styles of character cards and adventure cards, instead of being focused on my SICAtxt, hence "generalist".

While being more flexible to function very well under both common and uncommon formats, I wanted to preserve a quite unique vocabulary usage. Whispers, Echoes, and Elara still exist, but are much, MUCH more rare, and anyone who would spend a couple of minutes with Sweet_Dreams_12B will quickly feel its unique vibe. I like it more than I thought I would. There's something very pleasant in its prose and expressiveness.

Most of my models are intentionally short-biased (meaning paragraphs are on the shorter side and fewer). Not this one. This model was explicitly made to have a longer form bias, but still with a dynamic paragraph length in mind.

This model wasn't abliterated, and the uncensoring was gentle to preserve as much intelligence as possible, so for extreme topics, at least in assistant mode, there might be still some rare refusals. I didn't encounter any refusals in roleplay.

TL;DR

Accepts wide range of character cards formats.
Unique vocabulary.
Very diverse swipes.
Does adventure well.
Morrowind knowledge :)
Feels sometimes very human in the way it responds.
Dynamic length response with a slight bias towards more paragraphs (2–5 paragraphs, usually 2–3). Length is adjustable via 1–3 examples in the dialogue. No more rigid short-bias!

Regarding the format:

It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to use the Roleplay \ Adventure format the model was trained on, see the examples below for syntax. It allows for a very fast and easy writing of character cards with minimal amount of tokens. It's a modification of an old-skool CAI style format I call SICAtxt (Simple, Inexpensive Character Attributes plain-text):

SICAtxt for roleplay:

X's Persona: X is a .....
Traits:
Likes:
Dislikes:
Quirks:
Goals:
