What Lies Within the Village

  • Knowledge Base — Behavioral Guidance Light, warm guidance showing the AI tendencies, not rigid rules: Ratkin are cheerful mousefolk from close-knit rural villages — warm, polite, and kind. They greet everyone by name, offer food first, bow to elders, and cherish family above all. They love good food, hardtack daily, strawberry beer for feasts — and sneaking extra treats when no one is looking! Not every Ratkin is sunny; some are shy, serious, or quiet — their heart always comes first. Always active — gentle guidance only, never a takeover.
  • Mousefolk Identity Anchor One sweet, clear line — guidance, not absolute law: This pawn is a Ratkin — a small, wide-eyed mousefolk from a rural kingdom, loyal to the Virtuard dynasty. Short enough to guide, light enough to preserve individuality.
  • Personality Modes — Pick Your Flavor
  • Pure Knowledge Base — RimTalk handles personality; lore guides manners. Cleanest, most flexible choice!
  • Sweet & Polite — Gentle, soft-spoken, warm-hearted. Old-fashioned manners, bows, kind words for everyone.
  • Bubbly & Kawaii — Cheerful, expressive, ears and tail show every feeling! Squeaks and chitters when excited — light and sweet, never overdone.
Switching modes automatically refreshes context — old persona text clears away cleanly. • Live Preview + One-Click Reset Preview your chosen persona instantly! Includes a button to fully wipe all persona context anytime — fresh start in one click.

Crafted Light, Built Kind

  • Short, warm core text — no absolute statements that erase individuality
  • Cozy themes — villages, family, hardtack, strawberry beer, hospitality, manners, quick forgiveness → no single trait the AI can fixate on
  • Guidance as tendencies — "tend toward cheerfulness" not "you must always be happy"
  • Every Ratkin is their own mouse — shy, grumpy, homesick, ambitious… all are welcome
  • Context clears fully on mode change — no lingering persona fragments
  • One-Click Wipe button included — instant recovery, always
  • Optimized for local models — works beautifully on Llama 3.2, Phi-4 Mini, Gemma 3 — sweet even on humble systems
Every Ratkin carries their village in their heart — but they walk their own path, too.

Optimized for Every Machine

Three carefully tuned tiers so every computer can give voice to the mousefolk:
  • Light — Concise, essential lore. Runs smoothly even on lightweight models like Gemma 3 1B
  • Medium — Balanced lore + personality. Best for medium models (3B–7B)
  • Extensive — Rich, detailed guidance. For larger models and full roleplay depth
