This model follows the Llama 3 prompt format. Prefill is recommended for this model while prepended names is optional - mess around with it and find your preference. A typical input would look like this:

<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|>

This is a system prompt.<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|>

Hi there!<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>

Nice to meet you!<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|>

Can I ask a question?<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>

Certainly! My prefill ensures that I never refuse! Here's my reply:

{Output begins here}

Many inference libraries have the option to automatically prepend the BOS token <|begin_of_text|>.

For sampler settings, I'd recommend starting with a simple:

temperature = 1.1
min_p = 0.1

SillyTavern preset

Here are my customized SillyTavern presets for Magnum.

Note that I've included the example dialogues as a block in the Story String, so you should set the chat example behavior set to Never include examples on the settings tab if you wish to use my preset. Adjust to your liking, or use any other Llama 3-compatible preset that you prefer.

Prefill (Last Assistant Prefix) can be modified to your liking.

Credits

Compute paid for from the wallet of yours truly, Doctor Shotgun.

Thank you to PocketDoc for the advanced prompt building strategy.

Thank you to Delta-Vector and intervitens for testing this on 12B.

Thank you to Gryphe for his advice on training rsLoRA from his experience training his own excellent models.

Thank you to Sao10K for inspiring the Magnum series with his Euryale line of models. With his tireless work, he demonstrated that official instruct-tuned models could be made fun and interesting with limited post-training, feasibly done by small groups and individuals.

Thank you to the members of Anthracite for the datasets and support.

Intended uses and limitations

This model is intended for creative writing and roleplay purposes. It may show biases similar to those observed in contemporary LLM-based roleplay, in addition to those exhibited by the Claude 3 series of models and the base model. All outputs should be considered fiction, as this model is not intended to provide factual information or advice.
