# Mahou-1.3-llama3.1-8B

Mahou is designed to provide short messages in a conversational context. It is capable of casual conversation and character roleplay.

### Chat Format

This model has been trained to use ChatML format.

```
<|im_start|>system
{{system}}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>{{char}}
{{message}}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>{{user}}
{{message}}<|im_end|>
```

### Roleplay Format

- Speech without quotes.
- Actions in `*asterisks*`

```
*leans against wall cooly* so like, i just casted a super strong spell at magician academy today, not gonna lie, felt badass.
```
