WELCOME TO MOONLIT WEYR!
HOME .|.|. Dragons .|.|. Current Events
* * * * * * * *
Cannon? :: Semi-cannon, with only: new colors and new ideas about which animals came ot pern in the first place.
Active? :: We're quite active, normally, but we like a small site ^_^ more intimate, friendly, and less 'one of the crowd' situations. We're generally pretty laid-back but we are never inactive, just slow.
Rating:: Teen. nothing inappropriate is allowed, but next-morning rp's of Flights can occasionally go into grey zones.
Lit?:: Semi-literate. I'd prefer if you make sense when you're rping, but i wont go crazy over little grammatical isses.. i hope. So, no texting language or modern slang. curses are limited to pernese ones, such as 'shards'.

DRAGONWINGS
(Moonlit Weyr overview)
With AIVAS's help, the Red Star was moved. Thread would fall for the next 50 turns, it was said, but it abruptly stopped at turn 25. As suddenly as it stopped, 5 turns later, it began again. These 'Falls only lasted another 5 turns before Thread was gone forever. The outpost on the Western Isles that had hosted a wing to protect its starhalls now held the riders led by a young queen and her favored bronze, who created a new Weyr.
Moonlit Weyr soon proved itself as more than a way to ease the tension in the crowded Northern and Southern Weyrs: in the first clutch something happened that no-one expected. The volcanic ash long-undisturbed caused mutations in the color genes of the unborn dragonets. These new, additional colors are what make Moonlit somewhat special in a world that suddenly finds itself without a true need for the Weyrs. There are no new colors at the old Northern Weyrs, nor even at the Southern ones. New jobs for dragonriders, the thread of asteroids nearby, darkness creeping around the Isle, and the possibility of the new colors to have some sort of special abilities besides telepathy, telekinesis, and teleportation, together make Moonlit Weyr a very unique place to live. And its only getting more interesting...

CURRENT PLOTS
IC time: Turn 2 of no Thread, month 7.
It's late summer, nearing fall, in the mountains of the Western Isles, and Valureth's eggs are ready to meet the Candidates in the egg-brush. A Weyr-wide scavenger hunt should lighten the overall mood of the Weyr, create some unity. A secret library discovered by two candidates which also houses a bookstore; a depresed weyrling master; uneasy weyrfolk and holders, and a strange darkness hiding in the corners are just some of the things going on in the Weyr.
There are whispers, and unease: whatever the reason Raiin was killed at the Snows festival, at the Hold, that reason has not yet passed; the person has not yet been aprehended, and the suspects are few and far between. The Weyrwoman and Weyrleader are worried that its not over yet.
With no more Thread to fight, what are Dragonriders to do? There are several possibilities, but will any dragonriders take to the new ideas? And what could the new rumor going around about the new
dragon colors being special in other ways be? Is there any truth to the rumors?! Now that Thread is gone, Pern's holders are beginning to broaden their horizons, but that means someone has to protect them from wild felines and other natural dangers! Fireball- asteroid- threats are possible, but natural disasters are more likely and more common. Dragonriders are sworn to protect the people of Pern, and we will! Using whatever skills we have....

Why you should join:
*Important IC positions are open, such as Weyrharper, and CandidateMaster. The adoption of the Weyrleader, G'rin, is open for anyone, though a short test rp of his character must be done in order for him to be adopted.
*We have a good-sized clutch of a Sapphire and a Sand on the Hatching sands, so Candidates are Welcome and Needed!
*There Might be an NPC wherlet hatching in the future, if enough members are interested!
*There are several Female Flights going on right now, and coming up; a few have the potential to clutch small numbers of eggs. Including two maiden queen Flights in a few months....
*We need at least one more moderator and a global moderator!
*site-wide and miniature plots, including the new rumors, the scavenger hunt, and the overall plot, darkness in the weyr and hold, are ongoing, and there are plenty of places for your characters to explore on the Isle.
*Impression of all dragons but Golds and Bronzes are 90% based on personality and preference rather than sexual preference/ Gender. Golds and Bronzes tend to prefer heterosexual lifemates of the same gender, but we want to shake things up a bit- if it makes sense and is what is wanted, I'll let impression of male goldriders/female bronzeriders!
