Site Name - Draevalm Weyr
Site Link - z3.invisionfree.com/Draevalm/index.php?
Activity - Yes, approx 24 members. Though still plenty of high-ranking positions available, including weyrleader.
Level - Novice to advanced. (Min 5 sentence IC posts.)
Rating - PG-13
Type - DRoP, Dragon Riders of Pern. Canon
Plot - It's been a thousand turns since Lessa, F'lar, Jaxom and the other dragon-riders took the trip to the Red Star and knocked it out of course. Thread has not fallen at all, just like AVIAS promised. Many of the old rules have been forgotten, although some still followed them due to tradition. Despite the things they found in AIVAS’s records, Pern remains a low technology planet as most found the technology alien and as an abomination to their way of life.
More and more holds have sprung up, many in the southern continent, due to the more temperate climate. Some holds despised dragon-riders despite the fact that they didn't have to tithe to them any more because of the searches for the clutches, but some were kind to the dragon riders. The crafthalls also flourished; there have been many discoveries. Not only that there was improvement in some of the machinery and the practices, there was less and less of traditions being lost because of the hesitance of sharing craft secrets.
Of all the people of Pern, though, the dragons and their riders that have been doing the best. No longer needing to keep sharp and ready for Thread, they have found new things to do. Many dragons and their riders have taken to entertainment: Aero stunts, racing and the like are fairly common. Some dragons and their riders act as transportation, as going Between is much quicker to get from place to place than RunnerBeast or Ship. Another common occupation for dragonriders is as scouts and hunters. One responsibility the Weyrs have taken on and provide to their local holds and halls is a rescue service. If there is a natural disaster, the dragons and their riders help out, for example in cases of forest fires, dragons will carry sacks of sand and when they are above the fire, their rider will slash the sacks and allow the sand to fall to the ground and smoother the flames out.
Life on Pern has been relatively peaceful although recently, a stranger atop a white dragon appeared outside the Weyr, and has caused quite a stir, especially once their story was heard. The WhiteRider, Coya, claims that Thread shall fall in a few turns, many have decided that Coya is touched in the head, but that doesn’t explain the strange scars the pair bare and it doesn’t explain why there is no record of Coya’s birth or the White dragon, Akalith’s hatching.
