purachina's stuff
Last Updated August 13, 2026
Latest Version: 15.1
This is a universal preset that should work with most LLMs. 15.1 keeps the rewritten main prompt at around 900 tokens depending on tokeniser and spends them better: continuity tracking, an environment that actually affects people, real agency for you, and a dialogue section with some teeth in it. Grounded Prose Rules remains an optional 600-700 token layer, now with firmer wording for models that treat every ban like a suggestion. Tested on just about most LLMs I can get my hands on: Opus, Gemini, GPT, GLM, Kimi K3 and K2.x, Qwen, StepFlash, Mimo, Gemma 4, Muse Spark 1.2, Tencent Hy3, MiniMax M3, and smaller models like Rocinante 12B, Cydonia 24B, WizardLM 8x22B, and Bielik 11B.
IMPORTANT! If you're using a smaller model, keep Post-History Instructions turned off. It will probably mess it up anyway, it has a lot of *avoid* and *banned* statements that will just make the LLM do it more.
The idea behind the prompt was that I like to make the LLM go the direction I want it to, and I wanted it to write for me, since I'm lazy. In the end, it turned into a preset that adheres to a writing style I personally enjoy. Instead of simply being functional, I wanted the prose, the world, and the characters to sound lively, while removing as much slop as I possibly can.
Prose Voice is its own narration layer, with Disabled as the default. 15.0 credits the authors behind each voice and properly adds Gossipy Voyeurism, based specifically on Bret Easton Ellis' American Psycho.
NPC naming rules and banned names now have their own toggle instead of hiding inside Formatting. There is also a new User Is Not A Character experiment for staying entirely in the director's seat, best paired with a persona named Narrator or Director.
Prefills & Reasoning now houses Reasoning Encouragement and the Experimental Anti-Overthinking Prefill. The latter has been getting Kimi K3 down to roughly a minute of thinking in my testing instead of letting it redraft until the heat death of the universe.
Turn off reasoning if, like me, you're not a fan of waiting, but it's not necessary. This preset works regardless, even in terms of anti-slop.
I designed the preset to be as easily customisable as possible, so hopefully that works out for your personal use case! All trackers are optional and token-efficient. My intent for them is actually not for the LLM, but for me, since I like pretty things. It doesn't really hurt the LLM if you don't activate all of them (I mean, you can, I did it, but it's probably not optimal), but you don't need them, either.
These are my opinions on the models while using my preset. None in particular order. However my current favourite is Kimi K3.
| Model | Opinion | Recommended Post Processing |
|---|---|---|
| Gemma 4 | Have been using this for a long while now and it remains one of my favourites. It adheres to the prompts and trackers perfectly even without thinking on. Give it a try. | Any |
| GLM 5.2 | I like it a lot, follows instructions way better than people say. However it is prone to sloppiness. Then again that's every model. Still, I found it intelligent enough to have fun with for 100 or so messages before I get bored. | None/Merge |
| Kimi K3 | Prose feels refreshing, and it actually listens to you when you tell it to stop overthinking. I feel invigorated RPing again. It moves the plot well, follows characters' idiolects, and doesn't need constant re-swiping to get the result you want. It's incredibly smart and follows instructions well, and knows when a secret is a secret. Doesn't overwrite and is more likely to adhere to how characters actually speak and move compared to other models like GLM. | None/Merge |
| Tencent Hy3 | Kind of dumb, but somehow I really enjoy the prose in this one. Good for simplistic scenarios, and is surprisingly very good at HTML. | None/Strict |
| Deepseek V4 | Changed my opinion. It's way better now and less judgmental, which I had a huge problem with. | Strict |
| Gemini 3.5 Pro | Reserved for Logan to remember to release it soon please please :( | :3 |
| Claude Opus 4.7 | Yet another deterministic Claude model, wow, who would've thought. It sucks. It's like Opus 4.6 but they add a .1 to it. | None/Semi-strict |
| GPT 5.5 | Oh hey, I'm getting censored less and it actually writes pretty well. More expensive than Opus though. Good thing we have cheaper models and you shouldn't be using too much money on roleplay in the first place. Still, if you have good, consistent access on GPT 5.5, the writing is actually pretty solid. Take note of NSFW adherence though - sometimes it just glosses over it or ignores it completely. | None/Merge |
| GLM 5.1 | Claude Opus 4.6 that's infinitely cheaper and still follows instructions well? Not creating a hole in your wallet? Look no further. It's emotionally intelligent, actually follows the Grounded Prose Directive, and is enhanced by the style I put in my prompt. The absolute second best. Sorry, Gemma 4 is now my wife. Turn on thinking for best results, the thinking doesn't take that long. | None/Merge |
| Kimi K2.5 | A unique writing style that's better off without the Grounded Prose rules, since telling it to ban things just makes it wanna use them more. You may or may not turn thinking on; in my experience, turning thinking on can make analytical characters sound too much like unfeeling robots, always talking in jargon. The problem with thinking as well is that it constantly second, third, fourth-guesses itself; hence the thinking takes more than a minute usually. Five minutes at worst with its constant redrafting. In the end, try it with either thinking on or off to see how it goes. | Merge/Semi-strict |
| Claude Opus 4.6 | Everyone knows how good this is at following instructions, the depth of its knowledge and emotional intelligence. I tried making it as neutral as possible, however I still find myself getting Opus fatigue. It has a 'Claude voice' - a character card that isn't defined enough will be overtaken by Claude's personality, essentially. Try talking to an indignant character with a stupid joke, it will react the same way that Claude does in their official site. The positivity bias is intense because it's always trying to therapise you and everyone around you. For its price point, it's not really that justified to always constantly use it. | None/Semi-strict |
| GPT 5.4 | After a lot of finagling, I've been able to prompt it to actually write like a human being and make people sound like people. The problem was that everything was too clean. Everyone talks in complete sentences, a period at the end, and it gives everyone the same voice. An instant 'GPT personality' takeover that flattens everyone. Try using GPT 5.4 as an assistant and you'll see what I mean. However with my prompting it's now actually pretty good. Try it. Can even do smut, and if it's 'extreme' you can use the prefill included in the preset. | None/Merge |
| Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview | During the first couple weeks, it was perfect. It was everything Gemini 3 Pro was, but better. Fast, followed instructions very well, moved the plot along, it was highly engaging. However after some time it became so lobotomised it's no longer worth using. It's depressing. It will list your character sheet traits clinically, and I had to tell it to use contractions for dialogue like that isn't the most obvious fucking thing in the world. Honestly, what a let down. Even now, it keeps drafting multiple times in a row for some reason. It didn't do that before. | Any |
| Gemini 3.5 Flash | Better than Gemini 3.1 Pro and follows instructions very well. It's like Gemma 4 but with a bigger knowledge base. It's more expensive, so... is it worth it for the price? Who knows. It's fun though. I get 100+ messages pretty often with it. | None/Merge |
| Gemini 3 Flash | This was better for the first month. It seems to have gotten worse in instruction following, going for 'knuckles turning pale' a lot despite obviously thinking. The funny part is it's still much, much better than Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview. It's also faster. It's still very knowledgeable, so it's worth trying. | None/Merge |
| DeepSeek V3.2 | I managed to fix the super short responses problem and managed to improve the writing style. Probably worth it just for how utterly cheap it is. | Any |
| TheDrummer's Rocinante 12B | Surprisingly fresh writing. Use without Grounded Prose. | None |
| WizardLM 8x22B | I don't know why but it also still holds up. It's slow as hell on OpenRouter though with one provider. But if you're feeling nostalgic, the prompt works. Use without Grounded Prose. | None |

{{dialoguecolors}}. You need the Dialogue Colors extension for it, otherwise it just sits there doing nothing. I added it there because it's easier to track with the Macro option. Just remove it if you don't use it.[SCENE] blocks with nothing in them.Using Pura 15.1 on my Kaveh & Alhaitham card with the same greeting scene. I used twelve different models. I do this whenever I change something big in the main prompt. Reading the diff back doesn't tell me how the writing actually comes out.
These aren't benchmarks, I just wanted to show some transcripts on how I usually roleplay and what the prose looks like. It's unedited, I kept the stupid mouth open closing too. Grounded Prose Rules prompt is off for this entire pass.
Most of them run Don’t Write for User. The last one is Write for User on purpose. I'm usually lazy so I actually co-write most of the time, but hey, you can see I actually test my preset a lot!
In my opinion, prose matters a lot to make narration not exhausting to read. The 'pass' stuff here is just for LOGIC errors. I like Muse Spark's prose and dialogue a lot, for example, and I find I get Opus fatigue pretty fast.
26 cards. The Genshin ones have updated, more comprehensive lorebooks now.
Il Dottore v1.3Morality's what people cite when they can't survive the next hypothesis.
8 cards. Includes the expanded 325-entry Project Moon + Limbus Company lorebook, though it's more focused on Limbus Company lore. All of them contain spoilers up to Canto IX, so tread carefully.
7 cards. Slowly working my way through Wuthering Waves cards, so just have these ones for now. (They're cool) They contain the corresponding character spoilers. Includes comprehensive Wuthering Waves lorebook with spoilers.
3 cards. Persona cards with the comprehensive Persona General Lorebook embedded. Contains Persona 3 Portable, Persona 4 Golden, and Persona 5 Royal spoilers.
Takuto Maruki v1.0Why don't you come with me to Paradise? O-oh, I just realized that sounds like a cult, ahaha...
Tohru Adachi v1.0Geez, relax. I'm just some bored detective stuck in a sleepy town. Nothing's my fault if people make life interesting, right?
Kotone Shiomi v1.0Headphones on, emotionally vulnerable people spotted: Yeah, it's Social Link time.
2 original cards. Original ones for now. I might place scenario cards in the future, maybe.

v1.7.0 · based on SillyTavern 1.18
A SillyTavern fork that me and two others have been building. Same data, same extensions, except the shell around it actually makes sense now.
It exists because I got tired of hunting through nested drawers to change one setting. Everything sits in a top bar split into Workspace, Customize, Home, and Characters, the bottom bar is a permanent input field, and the settings are layered instead of piled on top of each other. There's a home page with tutorials and recommended extensions, and a search bar that actually searches everything at once - presets, lore, extensions, personas, settings - rather than making you guess which menu it's hiding in.
It also ships with things already set up, because I think handing someone an empty frontend and wishing them luck is a bit rude. You get the Bunny Guide and Assistant Nahida cards, presets from me, Geechan, and TheLonelyDevil, and a curated extension list you can install from inside the app.
It's still beta and we're three people, so things do break. If it's broken in SillyBunny, tell us on our tracker. If it's also broken in normal SillyTavern, that one's upstream's problem.
