So, a month ago I created a Humblewood cult, but it kind of fizzled out. It was probably because of the title, But, now, I’m creating a more general thing: a social club kind of like the DSC, with the common factor being love of animals and adjacent things (furries and therians welcome, of course). 

here at the Critter Club, we strive to promote respect and care to all animals, especially small, cute ones. Our mission is to make sure across the forums that animals are always treated with the respect they are due. Plus, we can gush about cute pets and such. In addition, we are a somewhat Druidic order devoted to the protection of animals and their habitats.

If you want to join, reply in the thread with at least one of the following tidbits:

• what pets do you have or want?
• what is your favorite animal-person species in DnD?
• have you ever pulled the whole “adopt any animal we meet” thing in a DnD game?
• favorite animal themed character you’ve made and/or played? Could be someone with a pet or an animal person or really anything else related to animals

As long as you don’t seem like an animal murdering buttwipe, you can join. Once I get a few people, I’ll start the PM

EDIT: The PM has started! Anyone who wants to join, still apply here. You don't even have to list the things I mentioned above, just say you're interested and you're in.

In my first dnd campaign I was so fixed on saving a group of abused zoo animals that I accidentally crashed the economy of a whole country in order to adopt the animals. Does that count for the third tidbit?

I walked away with an elephant, white tiger, three misbehaved lemurs, and a komodo dragon

It does. Welcome to the club. What kind of hijinxs did the lemurs get up to, may I ask?

And yes, collapsing societies in the pursuit of freeing animals is allowed and encouraged.

I would love to join! In one of my campaigns, I ran away from the BBEG fight to save some stray dogs.

 These freaking lemurs had like plus 10 to deception and managed to buy a freaking estate using walnuts that they somehow passed off as gold.

 You can’t be serious. For some reason that reminds be of the disguise bear from 3x

I have a pet Labradoodle and she is precious and she loves people. I also want either a python, a tortoise, or a snowy owl but i don’t think snowy owls are legal Pets in California.

favorite animal person? Yuan Ti are pretty cool.

my favorite animal themed character I’ve ever made was a Druid/gunslinger fighter multiclass named Goldi Flintlocks. She was a shepherd druid and her three animal companions she could summon to her side by magic were three grizzly bears. She was an outlaw and a bounty hunter, taking inspiration from Goldi from Puss in boots: the last wish. Also because I’m an Archfey, one of my magical forms of course is a golden Lyrebird of immense power. Fear me!

 Perfect. As a DM i can’t say I like it, but as the creator of the club I fully endorse it. You’re in.

 Labradoodles are amazing. I wish I could have one, but my sister doesn’t like large dogs. Or medium dogs. Come to think of it, she only likes small dogs

Yuan-to are cool, though I feel the whole “I am of an alien mindset and I can consider you food” thing doesn’t lend itself well to a cooperative game

I love Goldi! Did the bears have names? and what’s going on with the lyrebird’s tail. I looked it up and it kind of looks like a squirrel tail made of feathers

and Arch, if you couldn’t tell, membership is yours

 Actually that whole mindset is generally just Lizardfolk. Yuan Ti are just generally good at manipulation and are naturally skilled at hiding/ suppressing emotions.

Mama, Papa, and Baby Bear, of course. Lyrebird tails are where they get their names, it looks like the instrument, the Lyre. But their name would also work if it was Liarbird, because they can mimic sounds like car engines, screaming, babies crying, and chainsaws accurately. Anyways my Lyrebird form has a magic song and could defend all the world’s animals!

 True. Though according to Volo’s, Yuan-ti are pretty messed-up. Then again, that’s obviously problematic, that a whole species could be evil, so they got I’d i this. i think they should redo Volo’s and Tome of foes in one big species lore book that covers both monsters like hags and beholders, as well as lore for the playable species, including monstrous species, with all the problematic parts cut out.

I like animals! I'd like a husky breed dog. Big dogs are the best

 They are. I once had a character who went through the Icewind Dale campaign and adopted a husky puppy, which rode around in my backpack for the rest of the campaign
