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.
Hoshikage Kouyou is the president of the Society's Marsbase Sara chapter.
Notes
- ↑ "College" in the older sense of a guild, not the modern meaning - but that doesn't stop them from offering the occasional music lesson.
- ↑ Presumably they wanted the free fruit.
