Distil-NPC-gemma-3-270m

A small language model (SLM) fine-tuned by Distil Labs for interacting with non-playable characters using natural language.

Model Details

Developed by: Distil Labs GmbH
License: Gemma3 License Agreement
Finetuned from: google/gemma-3-270m

Intended Use & Limitations

Use cases: Redacting support chats, logs, tickets, transcripts—removing identity while preserving ops signals (IDs last-4, order numbers, etc.).
Out of scope: Legal or compliance advice; languages beyond English (generalization not guaranteed); domain-specific IDs unseen in training.

Input & Output

Input: A plain-text prompt with a question along with the character the question is asked to. For example:

Character: Arin the Cleric
Have you ever had to defend your faith?

For a list of available characters along with their biographies, please refer to the data in the following repository: https://github.com/distil-labs/Distil-NPCs

Training

Instruction-tuned on made-up character biographies + ~80 curated examples.

Evaluation

Judged by a frontier LLM using an LLM-as-a-judge metric.
