Pygmalion‑2‑13B

Creative Instruction Model Built for Roleplay & Story

What is Pygmalion‑2‑13B?

Pygmalion‑2‑13B (originally “Metharme”) is an open-weight 13 billion‑parameter language model based on Meta’s LLaMA‑2 13B, fine‑tuned for fiction writing, role-playing, and multi-turn conversation using supervised instruction and creative dialogue data (Hugging Face, PromptLayer).

It supports both commercial and non-commercial deployment under the LLaMA‑2 license, offering broad applicability in creative dialogue applications (PromptLayer).

Key Features of Pygmalion‑2‑13B

LLaMA‑2 13B Base Model

Robust dense transformer architecture delivering fluent and expressive conversation.

Fiction & Roleplay Tuning

Fine-tuned on a mix of instruction data, roleplay forums, synthetic conversations, and creative writing datasets like PIPPA and OpenOrca (Hugging Face, PromptLayer).

Usage of System/User/Model Tokens

Structured prompting with <|system|>, <|user|>, <|model|> tokens for multi-turn dialogue and persona-driven behavior (Hugging Face, Hugging Face).

Commercial-Friendly Open License

Allowed for commercial use under LLaMA‑2 policy, full weight access, and modifiable (Reddit, Hugging Face).

Creative Content Warning

Not trained for safe content, may produce explicit or inaccurate outputs; best suited for storytelling or roleplay usage, not safety-critical tasks (Hugging Face).

Use Cases of Pygmalion‑2‑13B

Ideal for building AI-driven storytelling, RPG NPC dialogue, or character emulation systems.

Use for narrative generation, world-building, or character dialogue loops with expressive style.

Design agents with consistent personalities, tone, or behavior using role-specific prompt tokens.

Deploy conversational systems, provided outputs remain in creative domains, per license scope.

Experiment with conversational instruction formats in open, modifiable setups.
