Blazed-Forge/Split-Untied-31B
Blazed-Forge/Split-Untied-31B is a 31 billion parameter language model developed by Nimbz, built upon the Gemma 4 architecture. This experimental merge model, created using a three-phase StyleSwap merging technique, is specifically optimized for creative writing, darker themes, and enhanced lewdness, trading some instruction adherence for increased expressive freedom. It offers a distinct alternative to its counterpart, Split-31B, which prioritizes strict instruction following.

Split Untied 31B: A Creative and Experimental Gemma 4 Merge
Split-Untied-31B is a 31 billion parameter model from Nimbz, based on the Gemma 4 architecture. It is an experimental merge that differentiates itself from its counterpart, Split-31B, by prioritizing creativity, darker themes, and lewdness over strict instruction adherence. This model is the result of a sophisticated three-phase merging process, utilizing two della_linear passes and a StyleSwap head graft.
Key Capabilities & Merging Process
The model's development involved integrating five different base models across three phases to achieve its unique characteristics:
- Phase I: Comprehension focused on adjusting
q_proj,k_proj,gate_proj, andup_projparameters to influence persona tracking, world-state stability, format adherence, in-character responses, and swipe variety. Models likeMelinoe-VL-heretic,Glistening-Gem v2.1, andMeroMero v2contributed to this phase. - Phase II: Voice refined the model's expressive output by adjusting
v_proj,o_proj, andmlp.down_projparameters. This phase incorporatedscotoma-2for anti-Gemma tics,Dark-Thoughts V2for a darker and less sanitized lean,Glistening-Gem v2.0for self-repetition and coherence, andMelinoe-VL-hereticfor willingness. - Phase III: The Growth (Head Graft) involved grafting an untied
StyleTune lm_headfromGryphe/Pantheon-Reasoning-31B-1.1onto the merged body, specifically at atvalue of 0.85. This final step is responsible for the model's pronounced creative and 'darker' output.
Good For
- Creative Writing & Roleplay: Excels in generating imaginative and less constrained narratives.
- Darker & Lewd Content: Specifically tuned for outputs with a darker lean and explicit themes.
- Experimental Use Cases: Ideal for users interested in exploring the boundaries of LLM capabilities and unique stylistic outputs.
Users seeking strict instruction adherence or highly structured outputs might prefer the Split-31B variant. GGUF quantizations are available from mradermacher for both static and imatrix versions.
