The Blackletter Library;
A 21+ Discord space devoted to Original Characters, Worldbuilding, and the Art that brings stories to life. Whether drawn, written, composed, crafted, or dreamed. If it serves the telling of a tale, it belongs here.
This Library is the culmination of my fervent love for Stories, Art, and Creation. My hope is to cultivate a haven for those who cherish their worlds and characters, and for those who wish to learn how to do so but aren't there yet, surrounded by a supportive community of fellow creators.
We are proudly anti-censorship/'Proship'. Within the bounds of fiction, all stories may be told and celebrated. That said, the server is not dedicated to NSFW; such content, along with material considered “Dead Dove,” is separated into its own opt-in forums so you will only ever see what you wish to see. Antis are not welcome in this server.
The Library welcomes systems of all kinds, with Pluralkit installed for ease of use.
To enter, simply follow the Appy Bot’s instructions: read the rules, complete a short application (under 12 questions, one at a time), and receive your role automatically to unlock the shelves of the full server. This process helps safeguard both you and our members.
The Blackletter Library is ready to open its doors wider. If you long to share your stories, nurture your characters, or discover new worlds alongside kindred spirits, we invite you in.

Server Rules can be seen in full under the cut.
✦ I’m happy to discuss things, but I won’t argue about rules. If I ask you to stop doing something, please do so to avoid a mute or ban.
✦ If you see trouble, @ me or my mods using the @ Librarian role.
✦ You must be 21+ to enter this server. If I find you lied to access it, you will be kicked immediately and not allowed back when you come of age.
Exception: if someone in here directly vouches for you, 20 is okay; below that is not.
✦ I will not allow drama in this server. If you have issues with another member, block them and move on. If you believe someone is a danger to others, contact me privately with proof. I will not act on unsubstantiated claims.
✦ Absolutely no discourse, this isn’t Twitter. Everyone here is an adult; I expect you to differentiate fiction from reality. Problematic concepts and themes may appear and will be discussed. Antis and pro-censorship people are not welcome. If that makes you uncomfortable, you’re free to step away.
✦ I don’t keep trigger lists or blacklists. I have severe memory issues and cannot maintain them. Please manage your own experience and step away quietly from conversations that make you uncomfortable. You won’t get in trouble for ceasing engagement. Tone indicators are not enforced for the same reason.
✦ Ask before you DM other members.
✦ Try to keep topics in the appropriate channels. But conversations sometimes happen in odd places and that’s okay.
✦ There is no vent chat in this server and there never will be.
✦ Keep things to the proper channels, especially NSFW topics. Heavy NSFW (Incest, Feral, Gore, Weight Gain/Loss, etc.) belongs in the Hard NSFW channel. Light NSFW, like handcuffs, can stay in normal NSFW. Do not kinkshame anyone.
✦ Engage with others’ creations. This server exists to uplift fellow artists and celebrate storytelling. Every story craves a reader. Try to engage with posts beyond emoji reactions, even a simple compliment counts.
✦ If you tag a thread as Dead Dove, include content warnings in the first post. Seeing the Dead Dove tag means you are responsible for your own safety.
✦ You may pass the invite to this server privately once approved, but do not post it publicly. Only the Admin may post it.
✦ Each forum has guidelines; most are self-explanatory.
✦ What counts as Soft vs. Hard NSFW isn’t enforced strictly, but intense kinks should go in Hard.
✦ Fandom OCs are welcome, and there’s a dedicated space for them. However, this is not a fandom server. Please focus on your OCs in that universe rather than media alone. AUs of canon characters are not allowed.
✦ This server is System Friendly and run by an Endogenic system. Sysmeds and syscourse will not be tolerated. Treat Systems (Endo or Traumagenic) with fictional characters as normal members; do not use Pluralkit for roleplay.
✦ “Headworld” refers to any original, non-fandom setting.
✦ Do not feel bad about “spamming” forums. They exist to be filled. Making 50 threads in a row is fine; this is a Library.
✦ No AI discourse, in any direction. Even offhand mentions (I.E 'I was trying to find pictures of turtles but all I found was AI slop) will result in a wrist-slap. This is the one space free from AI discussion.
✦ No discourse in general. This isn't the place, this includes going out of your way to create negative discussion of Media you hate, if you find yourself about to come here to talk about something or someone you dislike or hate, I invite you to instead talk about something you like! Media, art, your own art, etc!
✦ The Admin’s name means “To Your Other Self.”
✦ To apply: type /Apply in the Welcome chat, and, without sending it, select Blackletter Application in the popup. If you’re on mobile and it breaks, DM me. Follow the instructions from Appy.
Our Discord Community & The New Age Verification Rules Discord Are Implementing
Hi all!
Thanks to everyone who's been part of our Discord community - we love each and every one of you.
And we respect your right to privacy.
In light of Discord's announcement on age verification and the potential implications (https://youtu.be/8Ajo2inw7aM), we're looking into alternative options for our community to continue to thrive.
But so far our best bet does seem to be stoat.chat - it’s got a very similar interface and allows for a few features Discord had paywalled, such as profile banners.
Stoat are a small team rushing to catch up with the influx of interest due to Discord's policy announcement. And even with that small team, they're doing amazing and are incredibly quick to respond. There is an FAQ on Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/stoatchat/comments/1r1uk40/your_frequently_asked_questions_answered/) for any issues you might experience during sign up.
Another reason we're looking at them is that Stoat are based in Europe, and are respectful of privacy.
They also have a features roadmap: https://github.com/orgs/revoltchat/projects/6/views/4.
You may find in some places they're branded as Revolt - this is their old name and they're in the process of rebranding to Stoat after a cease & desist.
If you've previously been part of our community and maybe are less active on Discord, please hop into the server and check out our #tech-talk channel. Full details for what we're looking into and testing out will be in there. You can also volunteer to help test out the options in that channel!
We'll have our new option fully up and running by the end of February, and will be shutting down our Discord server at that time. Unless Discord policies reverse and the Admin team will be able to monitor all channels safely without providing our IDs or face scans.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to the admins!

The church bell’s sings its song, serenading the island. Birds scatter out, almost as if it were an orchestrated dance, the sky their stage. The fog that has welcomed you in your (temporary? forever?) home embraces the island, almost as if it were a dome. The sun looks artificial, but fret not— for she is smiling at you. For new students, this is the dawn of a journey you will never forget. For old students, it is the same, as the only difference you now have with your juniors is the time you’ve spent here. For this is the prologue of an unforgettable scene. The story has now begun— just as she wanted.
MORTEM AMARE is a religious horror discord based, 18+, multifandom, oc friendly roleplay group centering around ST. AMORRA COLLEGE, an All-Girls Academia located in a strange island. Here, muses live in dorms and attend their daily classes, but also attend masses for the world's God named Love. ...But as you traverse the island further, you discover that there's much more to this place than you had thought. Scriptures of your supposed God, a handful of human sacrifices, records of cannibalism, otherwordly monsters that start to invade the earth... It's up to you to find out.
