Broke the 1000 mile break-in period mark. Two questions.

Since I have the Subaru Gold Plus warranty, does anyone know if that will work at any Subaru dealer and also if I need to change oil since I broke it in?

Is it necessary?

You're going to get like 20 different answers about changing the oil after break in. I would follow the manufacturer specified interval, especially since you have that warranty package.

I've been searching on the forums and it seems like there are two different specific warranties for our cars.

There is the Gold Plus warranty and the Maintenance warranty. I have the Gold Plus warranty.

Apparently, that doesn't cover regular maintenance and only covers breakdowns on the car during normal wear and tear.

I'm wondering where do I find the Maintenance warranty and if I have one? Been looking through my purchase papers and I see nothing of the sorts...

You could always call the dealership and ask them.

Got her today!
When I asked about break in, dealer said that there isn't any recommendations for that so I trashed her right after the engine was warm enough.

Then your dealer is misinformed.
