Dark-Cydonian-Wind-24B

DARK CYDONIAN WIND (BF16)

Dark Cydonian Wind is a TIES merge of three Mistral-Small (24B) derivatives.

The Recipe (TIES Merge)

The weights were balanced to maintain the narrative quality of Cydonia and Redemption Wind while adding a dash of spiciness from Omega Darker.

🚀 Key Improvements

• Large Context Ready: Supports 48K-64K context windows.
• Smart 24B Architecture: Fits perfectly on 24GB VRAM cards (and 16GB VRAM cards at Q4_K_M with a reduced context window).
• A Little Spice: This model has just enough edge to create a worthwhile villain in creative writing without crossing the line into utter depravity. It should be able to make your evil sorcerer monologue to the captured knight in his dungeon without lecturing you on the immorality of kidnapping public officials.
• Less Slop: While some slop remains, much of the slop from the parent models (looking at you here Omega Darker) appears to have been eliminated in the TIES merge process.
