Rocinante 12B
Rocinante 12B is a previous TheDrummer story snapshot, not a 2026 frontier default. Rechecked 2026-08-18: leftover copy still treated early-tester vocabulary / creativity claims as current product facts and used leftover frontier-model tags. Hugging Face still lists community cards such as TheDrummer/Rocinante-12B-v1.1. Drop leftover frontier model / early-tester crown as a 2026 census.
Compare leftover OpenChat 3.5 7B if you wanted another leftover 7B-class chat twin already rewritten, leftover WizardLM-2 7B if you wanted another leftover story/chat snapshot, and Gemma 4 26B A4B if you wanted a current open path.
