Mergemaxxed
Yet another Gemma-4 merge. I decided to try merge some new models to Storymaxxed. Zerofata's excellent MeroMero which has great style and makes for fun roleplays and Pantheon which hones Gemma-4's reasoning traces. Both models bolster Storymaxxed and this one really shines with fun dialogue, creative narratives, and strong instruction following capability.
Merge Details
Merge Method
This model was merged using the DARE TIES merge method using MRockatansky/Gemma-4-31B-storymaxxed2 as a base.
Models Merged
The following models were included in the merge:
