It's time for a joining ceremony!
This will be our October (Summer season ) joining event, for all buns interested in being a full member of the Arbor!

Members will get to participate in special events and help our warren earn rewards!

Make sure you have read about the Arbor warren here and that your bunny that is interested in joining has signed in here!


~ Information & Rules ~
- All applicants need a FORM ( found below)
- You can use multiple forms in the same post, or different ones as you want. (Families aka a mom and kits etc, can list all members on the same form)
- Buns MUST have signed in, link their sign in on the form.
- You can have as many buns as you want in the arbor apply to join.
- If you make your joining RP 500+ rewards it counts for a reward roll!
- Post A SEPERATE THREAD in the Arbor for your joining buns ( you can have them all join in the same thread/post if you like, but it needs to be its own post)
- You can see how I posted DRIFT's joining post here for an example.
- An elder will respond to your thread when it is done letting you know if they agreed/ voted for you to join! (And we will add you to the member list at that time too)

Joining form:
[size=16][color=green][b][Bun Name] Approaches the Founders![/b][/color][/size]
[b]Link to Sign in post:[/b]
[b]Color Group Choice:[/b] (blue/red guard/yellow/ pinks/ green paws)
[b]RP/Story:[/b] (Format as you wish, you can include images/color etc)


~ Setting & RP Ideas ~

The setting is outside under the Arbor for this ceremony, which is really just a gathering of the warren. There are crafts from the Blues, yummy foods gathered by the Green Paws, and the Yellow group have stories and plays they are acting out on their big flat rock 'stage'. The founders settle together in a group, relaxing and chatting. They are casual and approachable, don't worry! They are waiting for buns to come make their requests!

A joining request can be as short or elaborate as you like. If you make it 500+ words, you can submit it as a rollable RP for an RP reward ( you are welcome to roll it with your post or a second post after OOC to roll).
If you have multiple buns joining, you can add their joining together to make the 500 wordcount if you want.

Ideas to write about for the joining ceremony RP if you aren't sure or need help:
- Some history of how your bunny came to the Arbor.
- Things they have seen/enjoyed/ buns they have met during their time here.
- Plans for the future when they are a member of the group.
- What they can bring to the group they want to join/something they are good at/ something they really want to learn more about.

Redeemed
In Closing...
The day of entertainment, celebration, and revelry started to wind down, and the Founders nestled into comfortable spots to chat amongst themselves. They nibbled treats and soft grass, and greeted all that approached with enthusiasm. It had been a long couple of seasons, at least to them, and it was nice to relax and enjoy their efforts. Random buns came by to chat about projects, show off interesting things, or take commands from Caper now and then. It was finally feeling like a really settled in warren, not just an idea scraped together, and each founder was enjoying this time. Now all were delighted to see the warren growing and their vision expanding. Smudge sat next to his friend Fivespot and looked around their ring of founding buns with satisfaction. They were a great team, and he couldn't have asked for better partners.

Individuals and even a couple of families started to approach them to introduce themselves and make their requests. Some of the visitors that were really promising had chosen to stay permanently and Smudge was very pleased. They even had some new rabbits arrive for the celebration itself and decide to stay. As the night grew late and buns started yawning and tidying up, it seemed the requests were over. He was not at all surprised to see an almost literal pile of tired actors sleeping in at the side of the rock stage and tried not to laugh at the Yellow group's dedication. Standing high on his haunches, Smudge waved a paw to the gathered group of newly approved members and spoke.

"Thank you all so very much for choosing to stay with the Arbor and help us grow. You all bring something special to your groups, and we look forward to seeing you thrive here with us!" He was genuine and heartfelt, and looked across all the buns of their warren, "And thank you all for making such a successful celebration!" he called to the clearing as a whole. He knew all the gathered warren were excited to meet their new group members.

"Fivespot, our leader of the pink's will show our new friends to the community sleeping areas and freshly dug burrow additions they have worked on in preparation, please make yourselves at home if you haven't already chosen areas to call your own! Welcome again!' With that he clapped his paws together with finality and went about gathering up his own things to call it a night.


Fivespot stretched and yawned, and revealed little soft bundles of kits that had hidden under her for warmth for most of the night. She smiled and nudged them awake. Junie yawned hugely and stretched, then helped roust her siblings with her mother.
"Yes, anyone is welcome to come with me." Fivespot told any loitering newbies, "We can show you warm burrows to sleep in and give you a tour for those that just arrived today." She lead the way, nudging sleepy furballs ahead of her toward a commonly used burrow entrance that would lead down to the network of tunnels and burrows developing below the peaceful Arbor shelter.


And so the first joining celebration came to an end! WC:521
