Hi, ! I think Soulhound might be a decent fit for you. c:
- Magic is an integral part of the site, and the way we have elements makes for very flexible themes. (For example astrologia element + wind element = time magic, or ignis element + terram element = lava magic.) If you can make it make sense and it doesn't fall under our restrictions, chances are you can use it!

- Definitely a fantasy site. Not quite medieval, but not modern either. It takes place in a magic-reliant setting with limited technologies like medieval period, but is actually thousands of years into the future of an ancient and no longer existing advanced society.

- We have humans (humans, elves, dwarves), bestials (yokai, nordic mythical creatures, and so on), and halflings (a combination of the two). Shifters would fall under bestial, depending on what you're going for.

- Discord is not mandatory. We just ask that you let one of the staff members know if you're not joining it or needing a break from the server so we know you're still interested in the site.

- We have accessibility settings where you can make the font larger, change to a dyslexia friendly font, and/or change to a light theme of the skin.

For activity checks, we ask those who aren't playing canon roles to post at least 4 times a month. Our word count is 50 words, so it's pretty easy to make! So long as you're communicative about taking a hiatus/not being able to meet quota from time-to-time, staff will usually work something out with you. c:

I can't help you staff as I'm already running my own site, but I'd love to check it out (maybe join?) and affiliate once your site is up!
Good luck finding help. c: Here's a bump

I love my members/friends. They are perfect in their imperfectly perfect ways. Q Q
I've come to notice from reading around forums like this one or just hanging in other servers that there's a sort of toxic expectations of staff members in the RP community that didn't really exist when I was younger (when we were younger). There's a lot of importance on "professionalism" and "catering to the customer" (the customer being the RPer), and generally people forgetting that staff of site aren't professional XYZ, they're just regular players who volunteer to maintain a site to keep it in order.

While I have come across members who have that perspective, I'm both proud and grateful to say that most of my members are really understanding. They realise I'm not a "professional," that I'm just like them - an RPer who wants to RP! So, if I need to take a break, they're cool with it. If I make a mistake, they usually understand.

I'm so grateful to have people like them in my life. c:

Also a special shout out to my mods who keep me sane when things aren't so fluffy and sparkly! I probably would've stopped staffing a while ago if it wasn't for them supporting me so much. I've caused them a lot of stress, but they still stick with me. Q Q <3

Special requests Please: no animations. I get motion sick from animations due to photosensitivity. I'd also like that they fit the atmosphere of the site, which is on the darker/grittier side, but not necessarily horror/gore/et cetera. So, no sunflowery imagery, et cetera. Thanks!

Hi, ! I think we might be a good fit for you. c:
- If you ever need to step out of the discord server, you're welcome to do so. Just notify a staff member so we know you just need a breather as opposed to having left the site.
- We have a pretty unique not-quite medieval but definitely not modern setting either, that we're building upon shortly.
- We do have a RPG progression system with levelling up your characters, which you can do by posting. For each level, you earn more stat points to distribute amongst your character's stats.
If you're interested, feel free to check us out:

Hello, ! I believe we may be a good fit for your character. c: Raven shapeshifter (would be a raven "bestial" on our site) using Jinx from Arcane totally works! Here's a little more about us below:

As the title states, we've been waiting for review on our site's directory submission since February 1st. Would it be possible to get it looked at soon? Thank you

, sorry to tag you here, but I wasn't 100% sure where to mention this to you. The site looks really cool, but myself and my friends are having a lot of trouble with loading times. I'm not sure what might be causing it, but as a skinner/admin who would like to know about performance stuff like this, I just wanted to drop by and let you know. ;u;b Good luck with the site!
Hey, Leap! Thanks for letting me know!
We just looked into it and it seems to be our BG image that's the biggest culprit, as it's 3k x 2k and in several places. Once your net has remembered the site, it'll load just fine, but I'll be downsizing the image so that it's easier to load in general. :) (I didn't realise it was so big, oops > < ). We'll also see about uploading them to Jcink directly so that the site doesn't have to grab from a bunch of different external sites.

Just in case you're having troubles on mobile: right now, our skin isn't mobile-friendly for the most part. We asked Von to look into it but they believed it was a back-end issue that they weren't certain on how to address. So, then we went to John from Jcink, and he believes that it's an error on recent updates for some browsers as older versions of them will work but not a newer version. "It's rare, but it happens," he said. Turning off javascript fixes the problem, so we're currently doing trial and error to see which of our javascripts is causing the issue. Once we find out what's causing the problem, we'll remove it.

Update We just resized and uploaded our banner (went from 17mb to 5mb, yikes! xD). We found we still have some other files we can downsize and upload to Jcink, so that'll be worked on throughout the day. Here's hoping this helps! Please let me know if it does or doesn't. ^ ^

Update 2 I believe I've resized and re-uploaded all or nearly all of our images (there might be a couple we're still missing, but I'll have check that after work :) ). We had some placeholder images that were 5k wide that didn't need to be 5k wide as well, yeesh!
Please expect it to take a few seconds to load for the first time, still, but definitely not as long as before!

We've decided to try square icon affiliates this time because the traditional buttons are just so small and hard to read on larger resolutions. If anyone would like to make a 100x100 (or bigger so long as it's square) affiliate icon for their site to use on ours, we would be most appreciative! We can provide traditional sized affiliate buttons in return. We just ask that it's not a gif/animated icon.

You can post there with your site URL, 100x100+ icon, and site title. You can also get our buttons there.
Thanks for your time!

Great question, @astrarium ! There'll be stats progression along with level progression. We'll have 7-8 levels and each level will be allotted X amount of points to distribute. Levelling will be optional for those who want to keep their characters at a low level.

We haven't decided up to what level characters can start off yet or how many points there'll be to distribute per level, so this is just an example. But say that you start your first character at "level 2" and you get 20 points per level across so many stats, you'll get a total of 40 points (in increments of 10 because that's all we can do) to distribute in any stat(s) you want. When you are able to level up your character to Level 3, then you'll get an additional 20 points to distribute as you please. This pattern will continue for each level.

Hope this helps!

Good old fashioned questing yes please.

Stat-heavy, stat-light, or statless?
Tentatively going to say stat-light. There'll be points to distribute into attributes like "power, intelligence," et cetera, but it'll be more of a visual guide to show what type of "class" your character is, like if they're a glass cannon or what have you. If you're in a battle with another PC, you can make a quick reference like "okay, my character is considerably faster than their character, but their character is much more durable than mine," type deal. There'll be no dice rolling, rng, maths, et cetera.

Hope that makes sense!
