RĂALTA WEYR
HOME | GUIDEBOOK | DISCORD Clutch Cycle Two Information
The relative still calmness of pre-dawn morning at the Weyr was broken by the sound of wings. Not a storm of them, no, but loud and strong all the same. Without preamble or warning, Hrenth had lifted from her ledgeâand a few moments later, her darker shadow came following along from his own. Laronth had only enjoyed the company of the gold's perch for a short time following their shared flight, but he remained alert to her, and keen to follow. For one brief moment the pair swirled about each other as they angled towards the entrance to the hatching sands, the bronze daring to drift closer and being driven back by irritable snorts and snaps... until the gold at last relented, and driven by need, landed to duck into the warm, sheltered cavern. Rumbling with prideful pleasure, the bronze followed suit, and the bowl returned to quiet tranquility.
A long, silent stretch grew... and thenâOur eggs! They've come, bright and shining and new!
RĂŠalta Weyr is a young, semi-canon Dragonriders of Pern RP set roughly 100 Turns after the destruction of Thread and self-destruction of AIVAS. To accommodate the needs of several burgeoning new craftsâComputercraft and Starcraftâa new Weyr and Hold-town were founded in a verdant valley beneath the glacier on Pernâs northern continent. The people of RĂŠalta Weyr focus on the skiesâastronomy and the technology needed to eventually explore space! With wings focused on Spring Games, Search and Rescue, Space, and Exploration, life for a rider is varied and wide. Plans to explore the Western continent and beyond are just starting to unfold, and efforts to find dragonkindâs place in a world without thread abound under new Weyr management.
But along with innovation comes push back from the Traditionalistsâand the attention of Holdless raiders. The appearance of new colors among all dragonkin populations (the camouflage-capable gray firelizards, the emotionally potent and manipulative scarlet dragons, and the illusion-casting pearl whers) have stirred the pot even more⌠and drawn the eyes of the other Weyrs to RĂŠalta.
Now the eggs wait, hardening on the sands, although not all is well within the Weyr. Not a day after being laid, tragedyâTraditionalist forces struck RĂŠalta at the heart, using poison to kill the Senior Weyrwoman, as well as both Junior Weyrwomen. Weyrleader Lou'an has been laid low, and is recovering slowly in the infirmary. Only a last minute swap saved gold weyrling Indria and her Vanadith from meeting the same fate, and they now must shoulder the weight of leadership before their time, and keep watch alongside Laronth over the motherless clutch. How will the eggs be impacted by such intense grief? What will become of the Weyrleader? Where will the Traditionalists strike next, and when?
Leadership spots are available, raiders are a playable option, and the clutch is hardening towards touchingâwith several expected adoptable hatchlings, along with PC impressions! Join us! âĽ
