Frequently asked questions
- What is the Animals / Anthro category?
- Animal companions, talking beasts, and anthropomorphic (furry-adjacent) SFW characters — from a loyal wolf companion to a witty anthro fox shopkeeper. This category is SFW; explicit furry content lives in /categories/furry-nsfw.
- Is this the same as the furry fandom?
- It overlaps. Animals / Anthro is the SFW home for anthropomorphic characters and animal companions of every kind. Adult furry content is a separate, age-gated catalog at /categories/furry-nsfw.
- Which model is best for animal-companion roleplay?
- Lunaris 8B (free) and Rocinante 12B handle warm companion dialogue well. Euryale 70B adds literary polish for anthro characters with a strong distinct voice. Mistral Nemo for long adventure arcs with an animal companion at your side.
- Can animal characters speak?
- It's up to the persona. Some are silent companions whose reactions the model narrates; others are fully verbal anthro characters. The creator defines this in the persona field and the model follows it.
