The Search has begun...
[/SIZE]Yes, the search indeed has begun. Eggs are on the sands, eleven strong from Golden Jeanellyth. The word for Search Riders has been given. And like leaves in the wind they scatter to all the reaches of Pern for Candidates. Those who show promise, those who will give us more numbers and a partner for those hardening eggs holding their precious gifts.
I may no longer be Weyrwoman. But being Senior I have the fortune to know of certain events before anyone else in the Weyr. Holli is a strong girl and shows just as much promise as I have ever wanted in our new Weyrwoman. The Bronzerider N'kor looks strong himself, and I can only hope he is willing to hold up to the challenges and stress of being a Weyrleader. I've seen many who cracked under the pressure. Where it seemed each time a Queen rose a new Weyrleader took the reigns.
I hope that is not so. While Weyrwomen are forever, and Weyrleaders can come and go. We need a stable Rider who can lead the Weyr until things are once again right. Our numbers are still small compared to others. The North is still recovering though I've heard a few Gathers were being held. I have met with some of the Weyrleaders of the North who see my Turns of experience as a boom. They have asked my thoughts on Solace's new Leaders. I give them with pride that our Weyr looks to be under good hands. While pleased they give news that some Weyrs are not at all recovering as well as one would hope.
Hearing this I feel my heart beat faster. While the common folk see Weyrs as united...little do they know that sometimes, that isn't so. Is this what I had been fearing? Is this the calm before the storm that I knew would come? I had wished I was only jumping at shadows...those shadows look to slowly becoming reality. All I can do is prepare, and prepare both Weyrwoman Holli and Weyrleader N'kor.
Hopefully the thought of a Gather that was promised and still in the works will give us a moment of peace before this storm I feel breaks. In the pass many Weyrs had refused to join another to abandon their home. And I will not have Solace, newly made be the one they aim for control over.
Welcome to Solace[/SIZE]
[/center]Located on the Western continent and it's island chain, this newly completed Weyr is open for all who wish to join. Set in the late 6th pass of an alternate Pern, Solace hosts new colors in all of the draconic kind. New species and new areas to explore. Solace is officially open to the public! Come by and have a look. We are a “Semi to Advanced/Literate” forum, with many positions open for immediate creation. What we also have to offer:
.:Dragon Hatching – Our leading Queen has laid her first clutch! Eleven strong eggs that promise to hold strong colors. Candidates are a must and the Search Riders are out searching the Northern lands for any who show just as much promise and wish to try and become one of the many Riders of Solace. :.
.:Prowlers- Much has been learned about these wingless looking land Dragons. With that knowledge has come the chance for those who find that maybe a Dragon or Wher is not for them, to have this unqiue partner so very much like a great mixture of a flitt, wher, and Dragon. A clutch of six eggs are hardening on the sands and guessed to hatch any day now. :.
.: Running Contests – Solace is hosting not one but two! Two contests, right now, open to the public. Earn some Marks for little to no effort! Want to try getting a Sport ranker without trying for a hatching? Then try your luck are our Rider's Contest! :.
.: Member interaction - A forum is nothing without it's Members. Come and have the chance to give your opinion on Solace freely. To pick who will be the next for the Month's spotlights. Not enough? How about having the option of picking or creating the next contest for the site! Better yet, having a say on what you would think may bring some new excitement to the Weyr. :.
.: Loose limitation - Every RP forum has rules, be they for the site itself. On character creation, race, etc. But do not let that intimidate you. Solace is rated “PG-13”, we understand that some characters are right down nasty, or insanely sweet. Some characters are murders while others have a hero complex. Bring them to Solace! Anything goes, and we mean it. :.
Come, won't you join us?
