+
+**Slush** is a two-stage model trained with high LoRA dropout, where stage 1 is a pretraining continuation on the base model, aimed at boosting the model's creativity and writing capabilities. This is then merged into the instruction tune model, and stage 2 is a fine tuning step on top of this to further enhance its roleplaying capabilities and/or to repair any damage caused in the stage 1 merge.
+
+This is still early stage. As always, feedback is welcome, and begone if you demand perfection.
+
+The second stage, like the *Sunfall* series, follows the Silly Tavern preset (Mistral V2 & V3, though V3-Tekken works fine), so ymmv in particular if you use some other tool and/or preset.
+
+**Parameter suggestions:**
+
+I did all my testing with temp 1, min-p 0.1, DRY 0.8.
