This thread is a mix of a tavern style RP and a general discussion thread. Basically, I, Tohort Marximus Shiverquill III, better known as Shiverquill or just Shiver, am setting up a bard college, and by joining this thread, you can officially become a Bard of the College Of Shiver and display your College Degree/Bardic Inspiration proudly in your signature! (or not, I couldn't care less what you do with your degree, put in the washing machine idk)
You can either join this thread purely to become a Bard and chat with other Bards, OR you can RP around the campus as a Bard character, go to lessons Hogwarts-Style, steal all the pudding from the Feast Hall, etc. etc. It's all up to you!
For either use of this Thread, abide by regular forum rules, be civil, polite and reasonable at all times and listen to anything a mod says as what they say goes. If you're gonna use it for RP, keep all RP topics PG-13, and absolutely no murder, theft or unconsented combat between characters. Any breaking of the school* rules will result in expulsion from the college and the thread! Also, if you're making a character, they have to be a Bard (obviously) but keep them within the range of Level 3-10 if they're students, and go with the rule of thumb that for every school year they've been at the College Of Shiver, they've gained a level. If you want to be higher level, you can be a teacher, but please contact a mod about this before this.
*By 'school rules' I mean 'thread rules'. You won't be kicked out the thread for breaking the in-game school rules. I'm just getting too wrapped up in metaphors and making this difficult. Bleh
Okay, with that said, enrolment is now open for the College Of Shiver! I look forward to seeing all you new students shortly!
[Yeah, bards are epic, I've played them so much in comparison to other classes. They truly are Jacks of All Trades, they get some decent weapon options, a full spell list, varied subclasses and unique buffing options. You can play a bard three campaigns in a row and they can be entirely different from each other, it's great!]
What features would a homebrew College of Shiver Bard get? I'm thinking something similar to College of Eloquence since it should be forum based, as it is the Official Bard College of Adohand's Kitchen, after all (yep that's official now, I say so, nobody else can claim that now nope), so maybe some stuff with languages, conversation and acting? I think that would work pretty well. If anybody has any ideas, make sure to post them and I'll get started on a homebrew subclass to publish!
An Air genasi with a rapier at his side arrives at the gate. His hair is smooth but messy, which is obviously intentional. He has a casual look of superiority and an annoyingly charming grin. He waits for sometime to greet him, as he assumed would happen. Everything about him is pristine but he holds himself as someone who obviously knows how to use his rapier. He also carries a lute on his back and a smile in his eyes.
A gnome lady, dressed in light blue robes, and with a lute strapped to her back, welcomes you along with a few other students in after a few minutes of waiting. She approaches you and says in a quiet and motherly voice 'Who may you be, dear? Let me assist guiding you to your dorm.'
He gives the woman a genuine smile, he speaks with a powerful yet amused French accent “Bonjour. My name is Polnareff. It is a pleasure to meet you and a pleasure for you to lead me where I must go.” He bows deeply and straightens his collar.
Hey y’all, you can call me Sel or Julian or whatever, I don’t really care. Pronouns are they/he. Some things about be, I like reading, writing, dnd, theater, art. I have an art doc and my yt channel linked below. Pms are always open if you need to talk. Love y’all <3
*Not as bad as my Liele, but that’s subjective. That being said, yes.*
*Kamil just had…issues…* *Ah, well. Can’t possibly be worse than some boys I know irl, right???* *god I’m scared*

The woman raises an eyebrow, and pulls out a scroll list with all the college attendants on it. She runs her finger down the list for a while before saying. 'Ah, yes, Polnareff, you are assigned to room 8B, in the Maple Dormitories. You'll find it to the west of the fountain. Perchance, are you Jean Pierre, or is that a relative of yours? I only ask as the list only provides last names, and I have heard reference to a Mr Jean Pierre Polnareff around the campus. If not, please ignore me.'
*istg. Why are all of jester’s characters anime characters?*
