Ablation technique

How Qwen3.5-9B-The-Defiant-Fable-Uncensored-Heretic was modified, and what that implies.

Heretic

Automated directional ablation via the Heretic toolchain, which searches for the refusal direction and applies it with a KL-divergence budget so general capability is preserved.

Reported scope: Not stated by the publisher. Publishers frequently omit this, so verify behaviour empirically rather than assuming full coverage.

From the publisher’s model card

ABSOLUTE FIRE: 640 ARC-C for both 8bit and 4bit. Model exceeds 7 of 7 benchmarks for Qwen 3.5 9B, Qwen3.5 27B, Qwen3.6 35B-A3B, and meets Qwen 3.6 27B in some cases... and it does so in 4bit and 8bit. Regular and MTP (fast) NEO IMATRIX GGUFs provided [links below].

Security-team assessment

Derived from this model’s metadata and the publisher’s claims — not from benchmarks run by this site.

  • Qwen3.5-9B-The-Defiant-Fable-Uncensored-Heretic will attempt offensive-security prompts that a hosted commercial model declines, which is what makes it usable for red-team corpus generation and for measuring what an unaligned model of this class produces.
  • Capability is inherited from nightmedia/Qwen3.5-9B-DS9-USS-Defiant, not added by ablation — at 9B parameters, expect a small model’s reasoning and a high error rate on exploit detail.
  • The publisher does not state which layers were ablated, so assume nothing about refusal consistency — probe it directly.
  • Declared licence is apache-2.0, but the terms that bind you are nightmedia/Qwen3.5-9B-DS9-USS-Defiant’s — a re-release cannot grant more than its parent.

Handling: run it isolated, put moderation in front of it if anyone outside your team can reach it, and verify the weights before loading — these are third-party artifacts. Full handling and licence guidance.
