Hi, Lackadaisical! I think
Reluctant Heroes might possibly appeal to you, if you're familiar at all with Attack on Titan/Shingeki no Kyojin. Of the points in your post, we fulfil:
- animanga face claims
- a discord server with member interactions, plotting, and tagging
- an active, inclusive, and very friendly site - we pride ourselves on being supportive, understanding, and friendly
- we have 3 staff members and, as of writing this, 20 members (some on hiatus, some may leave in our next roll call/activity check)
- daily posts!
- you can pick between our traditional app (with fields covering appearance, personality, strengths/weaknesses/fears/aspirations, and history) or a freeform app (which you can input your own fields or fleefrow writing, whatever you like, within our template)
- we've been open for 3 years!
We are a 15+ roleplay forum, beginning at the Fall of Wall Maria and writing our own version of events, with unique plot lines, original characters, and interpretations of canon characters. After Wall Maria is lost, the military begin conscripting cadets as well as accepting enlistments, and the 104th Cadet Corps begins mere months after the Fall. Currently, we're set in 847, with titans flooding Utopia District with abnormal behaviour. We use fluid time so backdating threads is allowed and encouraged!
Please feel free to contact me or ask on Discord if you have any questions or need any help at all! Best of luck with your site search!
