c/solorpg@lemm.ee: Playing Tabletop Roleplaying Games Alone

Welcome to the SoloRPG community!

Some people prefer to play their tabletop roleplaying games alone, to avoid the drama and scheduling issues of traditional group games, while others play solo because they're unable to find a group to play with.

Whatever your case may be, you're more than welcome here to discuss your experiences as well as ask any questions that you might have.

For an introduction to this style of play, read Why Play Roleplaying Games Alone.

c/kemonomoe@ani.social: KemonoMoe

Anime characters with adorable animal characteristics, ears, tails, fur, etc.

  1. Posts must feature "kemonomimis". That is, anime characters with animal features such as cat ears, bunny tails, paws, and so on.
  2. No nudity. Lewd art is fine, but mark it NSFW.
  3. If posting a more suggestive piece, or one with simply a lot of skin, consider still marking it NSFW.
  4. Include a link to the artist in post body, if you can.
  5. AI Generated content is not allowed.
  6. Positivity only. No shitting on the art, the artists, or the fans of the art/artist.
  7. Finally, all rules of the parent instance still apply, of course.

SauceNao can be used to effectively reverse search the creator of a piece, if you do not know it.

You may also leave the post body blank or mention @saucechan@ani.social, in which case the bot will attempt to find and provide the source in a comment.
