After a recent hiatus, I felt inspired to contribute to the local LLM roleplaying community again. The recent Mistral Small 24B roleplaying finetunes and merges showed real promise, punching well above their weight class, so I decided to try merging together two personal favorites: Casual-Autopsy/Maginum-Cydoms-24B and DarkArtsForge/Magistaroth-24B-v1, which are themselves mega merges, using Darkhn/Magistral-2509-24B-Text-Only as a base. My goal was to see if I could retain the creativity of the source models but juice the intelligence.
Something interesting happened with this blend that felt like a win to me. It came out wonderfully creative, retains good prose versatility (serious vs. wild n' spicy), and took on a distinctive, "smarter" writing style that some may prefer to its parents' style — especially if you're working on serious creative writing projects.
Known Issues
Generally speaking, this model came out good, but it will occasionally struggle with small details of logical/physical continuity — which is probably inescapable for a 24B model. Rerolling the output might fix it, or you might have to help it out by providing more explicit instructions or details so it doesn't get so confused.
Sampler Tips
You can import the JSON below directly into SillyTavern or use the master import JSON in this repo (Magistry_SillyTavern_Master_Import.json). I recommend using these values as a starting point for your own experiments. It's not like the model falls apart if you deviate from these settings, but they should be a reliable starting point for most creative tasks.
You can download the Magistry_SillyTavern_Master_Import.json file from this repo and import it directly into SillyTavern to get system prompt, chat template, and sampler settings all in one go.
