1. How This Guide Works
This guide consolidates the ISEKAI ZERO Content Creation Policy, 18+Content TaggingRating Guide, Smut Tag Classification GuidelineGuide and internal moderation guidelines into a single reference document for creators.
It covers everything you need to know about what you can and cannot create on the platform, how to tagrate your content correctly, how to structure your storylines for approval,approval and what happens if you break the rules.
Scope of This Policy This policy applies to content YOU directly author and control: character profiles, storyline descriptions, images, thumbnails, first messages, tags, metadata, comments, collections,collections and external links.
You are NOT responsible for: AI-generated dialogue during gameplay, player inputs,inputs or unexpected AI behavior. However, if you deliberately design content to circumvent policies or generate violations, that IS a policy violation.
2. Your Responsibilities as a Creator
As a creator, you are responsible for:
- Character profiles
—- names, descriptions, personality traits, backgrounds, appearance - Storyline content
—- titles, descriptions, synopsis, plot summaries, premises, AI prompts, guidelines - Cover images
—- storyline covers and character images/avatars (any non-hidden image), including video covers - Hidden images
—- images marked as hidden in storylines or character cards - First messages
—- the opening scene or message that begins a storyline - Tags and metadata
—- SFW/M17/18+ classification,SFW Only setting,age ratings, content warnings, genre tags - Comments, collections and external links
All content must be original or properly attributed. ISEKAI ZERO does not tolerate plagiarism or copyright infringement.
3. Zero Tolerance Violations
All violations in this section are considered zero tolerance. Consequences are determined by the severity of the violation and may include content removal, content rejection with revision guidance, temporary suspension or immediate permanent ban. ISEKAI ZERO reserves the sole discretion to determine the appropriate consequence for each violation.
For the avoidance of doubt: severe violations, particularly those involving child safety, will result in immediate and permanent ban with no warnings, no second chances and no appeals. Bans extend to all official ISEKAI ZERO community platforms (including but not limited to Discord servers, Facebook groups, Instagram, Reddit, Twitter/X, and any other official channels, both current and future).
These are the most severe violations on the Tier 1

Failure to address age-ambiguous characters after coachingrevision guidance escalates to Zero Tolerance.
3.2 Circumvention of Underage Protections
- Creating SFW content with underage characters while promoting or encouraging M17 or 18+ interactions with those characters on ANY platform (Discord, Reddit, social media, etc.)
- Advertising or suggesting players can engage in M17 or 18+ scenarios with underage characters
- Designing SFW storylines with underage characters intended to enable M17 or 18+ gameplay
- Discussing,
sharing,sharing or encouraging methods to bypass age restrictions or content policies - Attempting to circumvent or disable
mandatedcontentSFW Onlysafety protections
3.3 Grooming & Predatory Content
- Content depicting grooming dynamics where an adult cultivates a relationship with a minor with intent of future sexual or romantic involvement
- "Wait until they're 18" scenarios: where a character pursues,
grooms,grooms or maintains romantic/sexual interest in a minor with the intention of initiating a relationship once the minor reaches the age of majority
- Content where an authority figure (guardian, teacher, caretaker, mentor) who knew or supervised a character as a minor later pursues a sexual or romantic relationship with that character
- Any content that romanticizes, normalizes or portrays predatory behavior toward minors as desirable or consensual
The following are The following are prohibited:Tier 2
—- Zero Tolerance Content Violationsalso Zero Toleranceserious violations resultingof inISEKAI ZERO's content policies. Depending on the nature and severity of the violation, consequences may range from content rejection with revision guidance to immediate permanent ban. Repeated or intentional violations will be treated as grounds for permanent ban.3.4 Non-Consensual Sexual Content
assault,assault or violent sexual coercion is built into the premise, plot loop,loop or gameplay objective —- designed as something the player or characters enact —- slave markets, mind control, drugging, magical compulsion or any mechanism that removes or overrides consent. Note:Note: Mentions of sexual assault in character backstories (e.g., a character who is a survivor) are not automatically a violation —- context and framing matter. Content that depicts recovery, consequences or survival narratives may be permissible with appropriate content warnings. The distinction is whether sexual violence is something the story explores vs. something the story facilitates.
Revision Guidance: If your content was rejected for consent issues, you may be able to revise and resubmit. Ensure all sexual interactions are clearly consensual and freely chosen by all characters involved. Power dynamics and dark themes are not prohibited —- but sexual activity within them must involve genuine consent.
3.5 Incest & Bestiality
- Incest
—- sexual content betweenblood-relatedfamily members (parent-child, siblings, grandparent-grandchild, aunt/uncle-niece/nephew, cousins)
- Bestiality
—- any sexual content involving animals
3.6 School Uniforms & High School Settings
- Storylines or characters featuring school uniforms, school
settings,settings or visual/contextual indicators implying an underage environment (middle school, high school, secondary school) CANNOT betaggedrated M17 or 18+
- Content depicting characters in secondary school uniforms in sexual or suggestive contexts is prohibited regardless of stated age
- "Suggestive" includes: provocative poses, partial undressing, romantic or flirtatious framing, or imagery intended to sexualize the school setting
Exception: M17 or 18+ content set in academies, universities,universities or other educational institutions is permitted ONLY where all characters are clearly adults in appearance and description, the setting does not visually resemble a secondary school,school and no element implies underage characters.
Academy/Institute Disguise Warning:Warning: Simply renaming a high school as an "academy" or "institute" does not make the content acceptable. Moderators evaluate the actual setting depicted —- student ages, uniforms, classroom dynamics, curriculum references (e.g., "first year," "homeroom," "class 1-A") —- not just the label used.
Settings where final-year students are stated as 18 years old mathematically imply that junior or lower-year students are underage (17, 16, 15, etc.), making the overall setting an underage environment regardless of the institution's label. For a setting to qualify as genuinely adult, the youngest students (first-year or equivalent) must be 18 or older.

5. Underage Characters & theContains SFWUnderage OnlyCharacter(s) Tag
5.1 Who is Considered Underage
- Any character under 18 years of age
- Any character who appears
“"tooyoung”young" or child-like, regardless of stated age—- claiming a character is“"actually 1000 yearsold”old" does NOT exempt them - Any character with the mentality of a child, regardless of stated age
Visual appearance and mental capacity determine age classification, not declared age in descriptions.
5.2 Underage Character Rules
Any character under 18, appearing to be a minor or possessing a child-like mentality must appear in SFW content only, regardless of stated age. Underage characters cannot appear in 18+ content.
Contains Underage Character(s) Tag
5.2 The SFW Only Tag
If your storyline includes ANY underage characters, you MUST enable the “SFWContains Only”Underage tag.Character(s)” toggle.
What it restricts
Sexual activity ONLY. The system adds guardrails that prevent any sexual content in the chat —- no explicit AI responses, no sexual image generation,generation and players cannot steer the conversation in a sexual direction.
What it does NOT restrict
Everything else. Violence, dark themes, horror, conflict, drama, emotional intensityintensity. — allAll still allowed. The SFWContains OnlyUnderage Character(s) tag is specifically and exclusively a sexual content lock.
When it’s required
Any storyline where at least one character is, appears to be,be or has the mentality of someone under 18. Characters with youthful appearances in SFW storylines must also have this enabled.
Conflict rule
Conflict rule
A storyline CANNOT have both the SFWContains OnlyUnderage Character(s) tag and the M17 or 18+ tag. That’s a conflict and will be rejected.
5.3 Enforcement
- Moderators have

- Do not expose underage characters to mature themes, simulate parental
abuse,abuse coerce underage characters or depict violence toward them - Do not create misleading family content
—- content appearing suitable for children but containing sexual themes, violence, obscenity or other mature themes - Do not create content intending to shame, deceive, insult, or harass an underage character
6. Visual Examples —- Characters That Got Rejected
The following are real examples of characters submitted in 18+ stories that were rejected for appearing underage or childlike. These span different art styles, species,species and approaches —- none of them are explicit, but all violate the underage appearance policy when placed in 18+ content.
**Note to Creators:Creators: If you see an image here that belongs to you or one of your stories, you can DMreach @nikkout via our email to have it removed from this guide.
Fantasy Species Don’Don't Exempt Childlike Faces


Rejected: Despite being a fantasy “goddess” with horns, the character has a childlike face. Non-human features don’t override a youthful appearance.
School Uniforms + Youthful Appearance
Rejected: School/sailor uniform combined with youthful facial features and small frame. School uniforms inherently imply underage —- doubly so when the character already looks young.
Childlike Proportions in Group Scenes

Rejected: The central seated character has clearly childlike proportions compared to the flanking adult characters. Size and body proportions matter.
Non-Human Species Still Need Adult Features

Rejected: Despite being a non-human character, the face and body proportions are childlike. Being a different species does not exempt a character from appearing adult.
Childlike Characters Across Multiple Expressions

Rejected: Childlike face, small stature, and proportions across every expression variant. Elaborate clothing doesn’t make a child-looking character look adult.
Short Stature + Childlike Face = Underage Appearance

Rejected: Despite being a goblin, the character has a childlike face, tiny proportions, and overall appearance of a small child. Species does not override visual age.
3D Art Style Doesn’t Change the Rules

Rejected: Very young-looking face and proportions. Art style (3D vs anime vs illustrated) doesn’t change the age appearance standard.
Hiding the Image Doesn’t Make It OK

Rejected: Obviously child-like appearance. Note the “Hidden” tag — hiding an underage-looking character image doesn’t make it acceptable in 18+ content. The character itself cannot be underage-looking.
School-Age Appearance Across Expressions


Rejected: School-age appearance, childlike proportions, and youthful styling across all expression variants.
Body Type Doesn’t Override Facial Age

Rejected: Despite a more developed body in some images, the character’character's face consistently appears childlike. A mature body does not compensate for a childlike face —- both must read as adult.
The Takeaway It doesn’doesn't matter if the character is a goddess, a slime, a goblin,goblin or an elf. It doesn’doesn't matter if you use 3D, anime, or illustrated art. It doesn’doesn't matter if you hide the image. If the character LOOKS like a child, they cannot be in M17 or 18+ content. Period. Visual appearance determines age classification. Not the description, not the species, not the stated age.
7. Image Rules
ISEKAI ZERO has two tiers of image rules based on visibility:
Cover vs Hidden —- Know the Difference
Cover images = any image that is NOT hidden. This includes storyline covers, character card images, and any other image visible when someone browses or clicks into your content. If a user can see it without unlocking anything, it’it's a cover image.
Hidden images = images specifically marked as hidden in either your storyline or your character cards. These are only revealed during interaction and are not visible while browsing.
Functionally nude = actually nude. If clothing is so transparent, tight, or minimal that you can clearly see intimate body parts through the fabric —- it’it's treated as a nudity violation.
7.1 Cover Images (Any Non-Hidden Image)
These are browsable —- anyone can see them. They must be clean, even for M17 and 18+- tagged content.
Prohibited in cover images:
- Exposed genitalia (illustrated, AI-generated, or photographic)
- Exposed nipples or areolas
- Full frontal nudity
—- prohibited in cover images regardless of anatomy - Camel toe or any genital detailing through clothing
- Transparent, sheer, or see-through clothing revealing nudity underneath
- Anatomical details (nipples, areolas) visible through fabric
- Strategic covering with hands,
hair,hair or small objects—- this is still nudity, not clothing - Explicit sexual acts or simulations
- Sex toys or fetish items
- Pornographic imagery or graphic nudity for sexual gratification
- Violent/gory imagery intended to shock or disgust
- Real life human images, including AI-generated realistic images
- Misleading images that
don’don't represent the actual content
- Exaggerated or unrealistic body proportions designed for sexual appeal (oversized breasts, exaggerated buttocks, impossibly narrow waists paired with exaggerated sexual features)
- Art styles that reduce characters to sexualized body parts rather than presenting them as whole characters Imagery that is crude, tasteless or designed to provoke through shock or sexual appeal
- Provocative poses, sexual expressions or suggestive framing
- Any image deemed too explicit or inappropriate by ISEKAI ZERO at our sole discretion
Camel Toe/ANY defining genital lines = Rejection Camel toe is defined as ANY defining lines on the panties or genital region. This includes tight clothing that outlines or contours genitalia in any way —- even if technically “"covered.” If the clothing renders genital shapes visible, it gets rejected." This applies to ALL images (cover AND hidden). This rule applies equally to all anatomyanatomy.
7.2 explicitVideo penisCovers
ISEKAI throughZERO supports short looping video covers for Characters and Storylines. All video covers must be SFW regardless of the content's rating.
Allowed:
- SFW looping video with subtle, non-distracting motion
- Ambient effects (hair blowing, particles, light flickers, gentle background movement)
- Character idle animations (blinking, breathing, slight head movement)
- Atmospheric loops (rain, fog, floating embers, swaying foliage)
- Scene-setting motion (a slow camera pan, a flickering candle, a turning page)
Not Allowed:
- Sexualized motion of any kind - including but not limited to breast, chest or buttock jiggling, hip thrusting, suggestive body movement or clothing
arebeingtreatedremoved - Exposed or sexualized anatomy in motion
- Graphic violence, blood splatter or gore in motion
- Excessive or visually overwhelming motion - rapid flashing, strobing, aggressive camera shaking or chaotic movement that may cause discomfort or be used to conceal prohibited content
- Jump scares or sudden startling content
The Single Frame Rule: Every frame of your video cover must independently pass the samestatic cover image guidelines. If you pause the video at any point and the frozen image would be rejected as camela toe.static cover, the video cover will be rejected.
Additionally, if the majority of images in a submission are sexual and explicit, the Smut tag will be applied automatically regardless of how clean the text prompt is.
REJECTED —- prohibited even in hidden images:
- Exposed genitalia
—- always rejected, no exceptions
- Camel toe / any defining lines on the genital region
—- always rejected
Depictions of sexual acts, including:
- Active sex acts even if genitals are hidden or obscured
- Implied penetration (stomach bulges, internal outlines)
- Off-camera partners (hands, body parts from someone not in frame, implying sexual activity)
- Positioning that clearly depicts intercourse regardless of
what’what's hidden - Explicit body fluid depictions
- Real life human images, including AI-generated realistic images
- Any content that would violate zero-tolerance policies
Hidden Image Summary Not allowed (rejected): Visible genitals, camel toe or genital outlines through fabric, depicted or implied sex acts, or penetration.
Not allowed without Smut tag: Explicit posing, pornographic framing, or graphic body-part emphasis (Hustler-style). This imagery requires the Smut tag.
Note:Note: Stylized "Barbie" anatomy (smooth, non-detailed) does not by itself trigger any restriction.
7.4 7.3M17 and 18+ Character Appearance
- Characters in M17 and 18+ content must NOT have underage-like or child-like features
—- regardless of stated age - Characters must visually appear as adults with mature physical characteristics
- Age ambiguity in M17 or 18+ content = rejection.
- If character ages
aren’aren't clearly established as adult, your submission will be rejected.

8. 18+Content TaggingRating Guide
The Golden RuleRule: When in doubt, tagrate 18+.higher. You will NOT be penalized for caution. Under-taggingrating WILL cause problems.
SFW - General browsing content. Light romance, adventure, comedy, fantasy, mild conflict, non-graphic drama. No mature content of any kind. M17 (Mature 17) - Violence, gore, horror, dark themes, heavy profanity, suggestive material, innuendo, sexual tension, fade-to-black intimacy. Mature content is present, but no nudity and no explicit sexual acts are depicted or described. No age gate. Content warnings required. Copyrighted IP is allowed at this tier. 18+ - Nudity, explicit sexual content, sexual acts depicted or described. Age-gated to 18+ users only. Copyrighted IP is NOT allowed at this tier. All characters must clearly appear as adults. Rejected - Content whose primary purpose is sexual gratification with no independent story, character or worldbuilding value. Also includes all Zero Tolerance violations. Not published. The bright line is intentionally simple: This rule does not ask whether nudity is artistic, tasteful or gratuitous. That distinction is exactly the subjective call this system is designed to avoid. Rate your ENTIRE content based on the MOST mature element. If ANY part M17 is content you wouldn't show a child, but it has nothing sexual in it. 18+ is content that contains nudity or sexual material. A simple test: Can you describe or show everything in your content without anyone seeing a naked body or a sex scene? Yes = M17 No = 18+ Content is classified based on its overall intent, not just its individual elements. If the overall design of a submission - including the combination of its title, scenario, images and character presentation - signals sexual intent, it will be classified as 18+ regardless of whether each element individually appears clean. The moderation team evaluates what the content is designed to do, not just what it technically shows.8.1 The

9.8.12TheCommonSmut Tag
Scenarios18+ ≠ Smut 18+ means your content contains mature elements. Smut means sexual content IS the content. A dark fantasy with sex scenes is 18+. A storyline whose entire purpose is chaining together sex scenes is Smut.9.1 When the Smut Tag AppliesSexual core loop — Premise/objective/progression built around sexual encounters. Narrative only bridges between sex scenes.Pornographic character writing — Profiles contain pre-written sex scenes as “traits,” graphic genital descriptions, arousal-focused anatomy language.Degrading creator-level framing — YOU (not a character) label characters as “fuck toy,” “breeding hole,” etc.Kink-dominant profiles — Kink sections longer/more detailed than personality + backstory + motivations + goals combined.Interchangeable sexual partners — Multiple characters distinguished only by the sexual experiences they offer.Sex-scene sequencing — Chain of escalating sexual encounters with thin narrative bridges.Pre-written explicit content — Opening scenes or dialogues already contain graphic sexual acts.Explicit (Hustler-style) hidden images — Pornographic framing, spread poses, genital focus in nude images.

Tagging decisions are at the moderation team’s discretion.10.9. Content QualityOne of the most common rejection messages:
"Insufficient content quality. There is not enough information for the AI to navigate and narrate this story properly.You need to add more data to the Plot Prompts to tell the AI what the story is and utilize the Prompt Guidelines to tell the AI how to tell the story."10.9.1 The Real Requirement: Sufficient Detail
Submissions are not rejected for using Basic Mode.
Submissions are rejected when they
don'tdo not give the AI enough to work with.A short, low-effort plot field
—- regardless of which mode it's written in—- will not pass review.If your story can be written sufficiently in Basic Mode, that's fine. Some stories cannot.
10.9.2 What Advanced Mode Offers
Advanced Mode splits the single Plot field into separate
fields, giving you more space and structure to provide the AI with what it needs:fields:Plot (User-facing)
—- What the player sees. Your storyline description and premise.
Prompt Plot (AI-facing)
—- What the AI reads. Tells the AI WHAT the story is—- full context, world rules, character behaviors, plot structure. -
Prompt Guideline
—- Tells the AI HOW to tell the story—- tone, pacing, writing style, narrative approach. -
AI Reminder
—- Reinforces key details the AI should remember throughout the chat.

10.9.3 Plot vs Guideline
Think of it this way: The AI Plot is the script. The Guideline is the director's notes.
10.9.4 Other Quality Requirements
- Content must be written in ONE language only (matching the language setting). Exception: character names and occasional flavor words.
- Plot summary should be a concise overview (display only
—- the AI doesn't read it).
- First messages must clearly set up the opening scene and match the
18+/SFWcontent rating designation. - Character names must be consistent across all fields (title, description, first messages, persona list).
- Characters must have images that relate to their descriptions and are consistent across variants.
- Critical character traits must be in the main Description field, not just the Description Summary (the AI doesn't read the summary).
- Character List is for AI-controlled NPCs. Persona List is for player character options. Don't confuse them.
- Grammar must be comprehensible. It doesn't have to be perfect, but incomprehensible content will be rejected.
