Hear Ye, Hear Ye! --
On behalf of all my fellow Bards, I would like to wholeheartedly extend an invitation to you, weary traveler!
Do you like to create characters and build fantastical worlds? Are you a fledgling novelist or artist? Maybe you just really, really like to write stories about your Subeta pets, and stuff their treasure chests with all sorts of unique items?
If you are looking to join a club dedicated to the art of pet and character creation, you are in the right place! As of today, Bards of the Feather is officially announcing its existence and hoping to expand its ranks!
What We Believe In -- Rule Number One is that Bards of a Feather is a no-judgement zone. Do you only dabble in anthro character designs? Love to write stories based in the Subeta world? Are you more fanpet and fanfiction-geared? It doesn't matter what your interests are - our diversity as creators is what makes us unique, and we strive to maintain a chill, no-judgement environment where everyone can feel safe to talk about their pets, characters and ideas. Got an embarrassing OC? Don't worry, so do we. Let's talk about it!
We also hope to be a warm and inviting environment, where you may come and go as you please. If you are the socially anxious type, or have a busy work schedule, do not fear - there are no repercussions for going inactive. We want you to feel safe enough to come back and chat with us whenever you're ready to do so!
What We Offer -- As for activities and communication, so far we've got:
-An active discord server, although discord use is NOT mandatory! -A private Subeta forum, where all major events and notifications are posted! -Forum games -Monthly character-development prompts -One-word prompts -Admin- and member-run contents -An official prize shop + prize system -Some really cool people, and a bi-weekly, exclusive, and detailed Pet Spotlight!
We have also discussed doing plots, game nights (Jackbox, Pretend You're Xyzzy, possible DnD one-shots), and more!
How To Join -- If you're wanting to join the Bards, then look no further! All you must do is write a paragraph about why you want to join the Bards, and why you think you would be a good fit. Then, simply send that paragraph in an sMail to either or ! (Note: has since stepped down as a Bards admin, so please don't send any apps to them!)
After you are approved by an admin, you will enter a week-long trial period, where you will gain access to our forums and discord. We would love if you used this opportunity to chat with us, so we could get to know you! If, after the week-long trial period, the current Bard members see no reason to deny you full membership, then you will officially be accepted as a fully-fledged Bard! (This process sounds scarier than it actually is; We're very unlikely to turn somebody away after the trial period unless they try to skirt around Subeta rules or certain ethical standards.)
Thank You For Reading! -- Subeta friends, thank you for taking the time to read our forum post, and for considering the Bards as your new Subeta family. We really look forward to chatting and creating with you soon!

please join we're v fun and chill!! ₍՞◌′ᵕ‵ू◌₎♡

Hey guys! :D I'm v excited to have people to nerd out with now!
One of our three rule is that activity is never required cause hey, life happens!!!
Does joining require selling my soul, because I'm pretty sure I already sold mine in 2013
EYY it's been a while!! Nope, no activity requirement at all. I mean, while we would love to talk to you often, like Auds said, work can get in the way, and it just doesn't seem fair to penalize folks for not being to participate as much, whether it's due to work or life or social anxiety or w/e. So ya! I got your app, I'm just waiting on the Council to Make an Official Decision 👀
lmao you'll be in good company if you want to join, I'm certain there's a few of us who are currently soulless. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) You're welcome to send an app to me, or whenever you're ready!!

Just sent my app - and I tried not to be too much of a memelord.
...and I failed at it. The memes, they're in my blood
Omg, the memes, the memes... Do not worry, for I love any and all memes. 👀 I got your app! Just waiting on the Council to make a decision. I'll get back to you as soon as a decision is made!!

That's amazing, can't wait to have news :D

Greetings and good tidings, traveler!
Applications are always open.
What we offer:
Open-inn events. Not in the group? No worries! For promotional and creative reasons, some of our events and prompts will also be posted to this thread. You'll also be eligible for any prizes if you take part!
A judgement-free zone. Want to revive that winged wolf OC? Write fanfiction? We want to support you! (Adhering to ethical standards, of course! Alt-right and their ilk need not apply.)
Quests and a character sheet (available on Google Sheets and as a pet page layout)! Bards are encouraged to create a character that they will use to interact with our world.
An ever growing world, starting at our inn. Hosted by our nameless mascot and bird dad, all bards have a home here.
No activity requirement.
Forum games and character development prompts.
An active, optional Discord server and a private Subeta forum. All major events and notifications are cross-posted!
Multi-group friendly. Want to join every group around? Go for it!
i want to make it a tradition to announce new members here so i just want to extend a big welcome to our newest members, and !! you guys have already been so awesome and i'm really looking forward to talking to you more. ;A; <3

I wish to join! I 'd like to be in a more active pet centered group!
Also interested in that pet spotlight....wonder what the difference is between this group's version and the official one.
Do I send my app through smail?
[tot=PiplupMagby34]
@ piplupmagby34 omg hi!! Thank you for your interest, and yes, please feel free to send in an app by sMail to me, or , and we'll get back to you as soon as we review the app and make sure you're okeydokey artichokey!
As for the pet spotlight, I can't say TOO much since we're still in brainstorming mode, but I think we want it to be a more detailed celebration of the winning pet, and there will be prizes and possibly a trophy too? idk it's still in development, honestly!!
8/21/2020 IT'S A NEW DAY and I just want to extend a wholehearted WELCOME to our newest members, and !! We're excited to have you both and I hope you guys enjoy your time with us!! <3 <3 <3
