            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
pipe(text=messages)

# pip install -U transformers accelerate
# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForMultimodalLM

🐉 The Legion Unleashed

Erebus RP Engine is forged specifically for high-intensity dark fantasy, grimdark narrative arcs, and chaotic multi-character combat roleplay. Calibrated to sustain rich worldbuilding, ruthless tactical dialogue, and ancient ominous aesthetic without falling into passive or sanitised prose. The model was fully uncensored via merging.

📚 Tome of Behavior

Directives of the Iron Host

Active World Momentum: NPCs advance battle lines, ambush, seize high ground, and respond realistically to catastrophic damage.
Visceral Sensory Descriptions: Emphasizes the stench of sulphur, the weight of plate armor, cold iron, and the sickening light of necromancy.
Unyielding Archetypes: Minotaur warlords bellow commands, draconic sorceresses whisper ruin, and legions of the dead march without fear or fatigue.
