Welcome to Gaia! ::


Welcome! Here, you'll find a place for all you Pern fans out there. Please read the rules and updates before going any further.

UPDATES
Mar. 24) Working on a beginner's guide to Pern. Will take some time, though.... In the meantime, if anyone is uncertain about anything, feel free to PM me.

Mar. 1) Seeing as how I've recently received a few more requests to join us, I randomly selected one to join in the ranks as a Weyrling, having Impressed when no one was looking. 3nodding Welcome!

(Feb. 26) Sorry for disappearing for so long, I was in a car accident recently, and while in the hospital I had no access to a compy. Feeling a little better now, so hopefully we can get on with the RP'ing again.


RULES
1. If you wish to join, please PM me with your Pernese name and the name and color of the flit (fire lizard) you're bringing (if any).

2. Want to be a candidate? Prove it to me by posting. If you don't post, I interpret that to mean that you're not interested.

3. We have a 2-flit limit. That's one for each shoulder, perfectly reasonable.

4. Although the limit is 2, you may only bring 1 with you when you join, and that one cannot be a gold or bronze. Golds can only be acquired at a flit hatching. There will be no exeptions.

5. The ability to hear all dragons is not permitted. Again, there will be no exceptions.

6. No using names from the books. I don't care if the name belonged to a person, a dragon, a fire lizard, or even a watch-wher... It's not allowed.

7. There will be no odd-colored dragons or flits here, so don't bother trying to bring a white, black, red, or any other non-pernese flit.

This guild is based on Anne Mccaffrey's The Dragonrider's of Pern series. I take no credit for the Weyrs, dragons, Pern, or anything else of her creation.
INFO
This takes place in pretty much a parallel universe, where there were no Long Intervals, no disappearance of 5 Weyrs, no discovery of Aivas. At the moment, we're in the 4th Turn of the 9th Pass. The Weyr? Benden, of course! Fire lizards have only recently been rediscovered. And no, you will not see Lessa, F'lar, or anyone else from the books.

F.A.Q.

1. Why can't I join with 2 flits?
Because there will eventually be fire lizard Hatchings, and if everyone already has 2, then there would be no one to give any of the eggs to. Besides, this gives everyone a fair chance at getting a gold.

2. During a Hatching, do we get to choose the color that we Impress?
Nope, only the one hosting the Hatching can decide that... although I admit, I kinda like keeping people hanging in suspence for a day or two. xd However, as your new dragon will undoubtedly tell you it's name, you are free to let everyone know what that name is (in short, you get to decide the name). I must warn you, though, that I will never reveal what color you Impressed until after you reveal the hatchling's name.

Walking across the bowl, T'lan shook his head as he wondered what was happening to the Weyr around him. Not two sevendays ago, the three junior queens had battled, with fatal consequences. Now Jenth, their only remaining gold dragon, has laid what was likely to be her final clutch. He thought of the aging queen resting on the Sands right now, paws wrapped around one particular glistening egg. At least that much had gone right!

Striding into the lower cavern, he sat down and asked one of the drudges for a cup of klah. Sipping his drink, he tried to find answers to the the puzzles that plagued him.
Entering the Candidate Barracks, Hope looked around the empty space. Apparantly, she was the first to arrive. Looking over the selection of beds, she decided on the fourth one from the door and sat down on it. Letting her bag slide from her shoulder, she opened it and began folding her clothes to put in the chest at the foot of the bed.

Alright I can leave Ru out for now.
Finishing his klah, T'lan left the lower caverns. Spotting him, Granth spiraled down from his weyr ledge toward the lake. Is it time? the bronze asked.

Yes, come on. T'lan replied.

They reached the water's edge at the same time. "Go on in and get yourself soaked. I'll follow in a moment." Rumbling happily, Granth waded into the shallows, then suddenly dove toward the deeper part of the lake.
((Wow, Gaia seems to be having a few problems today...))

((Yeah, seems to be a bit glitchy lately))
As he scrubbed the bronze's hide, T'lan noticed several blues depositing Candidates in the Weyr bowl. Some of them looked around in wonder, others in confusion. I'll have to help them once I'm done with you. A few of them look rather lost.

They just don't know where to go, the dragon replied. And you've missed a spot.

Sorry. He looked away from those arriving and went back to scrubbing.
((Only 2 Candidates? Wow, this will be a short Hatching rolleyes ))
((Yeah sweatdrop I'm saving the Hatching for when we have more people, which I hope will be soon. Don't worry, I won't postpone it forever.))
