Moonlit Weyr- New Colors, New Fronts, Same old Pern...
We think.

-------------

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. However, currently three members are having Real Life troubles, so we're a little slower. All the more reason to JOIN!!!

Rating:: Teen. we don't go deeply into anything, even after flights, but we don't shy away from intimate love talks between characters or anything like that.

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, also.

DISCOVERYAfter AIVAS and the dragons/dragonriders moved the Red Star with the antimatter engines, everyone thought Thread would stop right away, some thought that very same sevenday. Obviously, it didn't and wouldn't for the next 50 turns. But at around twentyfive turns into the last pass, it stopped. Everyone celebrated, and even some Leaders chuckled and shrugged, thinking,
"Maybe AIVAS was wrong, after all. Maybe Thread is over now." they said. But it was not the end.

DRAGONWINGSThread came back, though, for 20 more turns during that time, it was half a Pass. And then, suddenly, Thread ended. A Weyr was created on the Western Isles, to protect the growing population there and upkeep the starhalls, nobody expected it to be anything other than a simple Weyr. But that was not so. When Moonlit was populated it was discovered that the volcanic ash had created mutations of the color gene in some dragonets. When the first Gold's clutch hatched, several strangely-colored dragonets were revealed. Thus Moonlit's grand age began.

COLORFULThe new colors have been fit into the ranks: Kings, Queens, Middies/fighters, and Rares.
They are as compatible as the original colors are, and seem very similar to one or the other originals sometimes. The full list of colors is on the site,

and applys to all dragonkind: watch-whers, firelizards, and Dragons. The different 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. While Moonlit's unusual looking dragons has protected it thusfar, it wont be too much longer before someone questions the Tithe... There will always, however, be jobs for Dragonriders to do. And star patrol is only the beginning of it...

NOW- PLOTS
IC time: Turn 2 of no Thread, month 6.

It's full summer now, and Dearyth's eggs have hatched and impressed, giving a hope of new life to the Weyr, while Valureth's are well on their way to hatching as well. Narisen and Kiri have passed their first turn of life in good health, so the general mood around the Weyr is becoming a bit lighter. But there are still whispers, and uneasiness. Whatever the reason Raiin was killed at the Snows festival, at the Hold, that reason has not yet passed. The Weyrwoman and Weyrleader are worried that its not over yet. With no more Thread to fight, what are Dragonriders to do? We're about to find out....
_______________________________________________________
Why you should join:

*tons of important IC positions open, such as lord and lady holder, and wingleaders of three wings. Weyrharper and CandidateMaster are needed as well!
*Valureth's clutch is in need of Candidates- Valureth is a Sapphire, one of the uncommon colors, and the sire of her clutch is a Sand, so there is the possibility of a brown or a sand, even a sapphire- though, that's just speculation. so, Candidates!
*There are several young Watch-whers, including a Gold and a Bronze, and some NPC whers as well- so there might be an NPC wherlet hatching in the future, if enough members are interested.
*you never know exactly what color dragon your candidate might impress! - no more "i have a female candidate, so she'll impress a gold or a green' routine! There are some gender/orientation-based impressions, but most dragons other than Bronzes, Golds, and Lilacs are open to almost any orientation.
*we're friendly, open, and welcoming, with upbeat attitudes and wild ideas! (not that we Will use any or all of them...)
*I, your helpful Admin, (Raelyn) look forward to any help or feedback!
*We're a small and patient site, and we never play favorites!
*flitter (firelizard) clutches- up to two eggs per clutch are claimable, and there are a Gold Flight and a Spiral Flight going on right now! Eggs are possiblities in the Spiral's case, and probabilities in the Gold's.
*many different plots and lts of fun drama! Dragons with REAL personalities and fun characters to interact with!
*an ever-changing site that really needs all of its members!
*We look forward to any help you can give- and the positions of Moderators and one more Supermod are open! (OOC positions are wanted!)
*We're not very busy, so we all have time to get to know one another and become friends, not just the people you occasionally talk to as another characer. ^_^

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! And you can request 'cannon-only' impression for your candidate if you wish to.

WELCOME... TO A THREAD-FREE PERN. WELCOME TO MOONLIT WEYR.

SOAR UPON FRAGILE DRAGON WINGS

Thread is gone. It has been officially gone for 2 turns now. AIVAS's plan worked, and the Pernese are free of the menace of Thread 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. The Weyr soon proved itself as more than a way to ease the tension in the crowded Northern and Southern Weyrs, because new colors started appearing in dragon clutches. 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 Isles, 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!

WE FLY TO SAVE THE WORLD WE LOVE

What are Dragons and Weyrfolk to do with their enemy - Thread - gone forever? (No doubt they are happy, but it is a somewhat embittered joy. Their livelihoods are moot.) Moonlit Weyr's about to find out... 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....
