Somebody has said, "I care not who makes the laws, if I may write the ballads of a nation."

—Isaac Newton Arnold, Sketch of the life of Abraham Lincoln (1869)

Also known as Filkers or Dandelions

A mutual-aid group for Fandom’s wandering troubadors. Officially, their political influence is "Non-existent," but they can make or ruin reputations if they see the need and work together.

The Filkers have a space-port-sized habitat in the L5 zone, which they use as a “Bardic College.”[1] Early rumours held that this habitat would be named Argo solely so that the Federation could be banned from it; however, they announced the station's name as Space Station Three when it was opened.[2]

Known Filkers

Michelle Delacroix is the Society's resident "agent" on Mars, and a member of the trio Bombastic Hush.

Notes

  1. "College" in the older sense of a guild, not the modern meaning - but that doesn't stop them from offering the occasional music lesson.
  2. Presumably they wanted the free fruit.
