Current IC News: Much has happened in little time at Western Weyr. Perhaps most notably is the fact that senior queen Moraeth has risen - and that it was not M'trin's Tamevith who caught her, but the recently transferred T'raev and his Mirkath from Ista Weyr. More interesting to note is the fact that M'trin and Tamevith were not to be found for the flight, and have seemingly disappeared... but to where? There is much gossip on the matter, but few hard facts.
In addition, Junior Weyrwoman Valleny was, much to her displeasure, traded away to Igen Weyr for another queen in order to broaden Western's gene pool. Riza and Maurynneth now call Western their home... again, for Riza, who was born on the frigid continent. Igen Weyr faces some censure from the Weyr Council for the act, but there is little to be done about it now.
Most pressing on the minds of those Candidates who were left standing at Phediath's clutch is the fact that, in three month's time, Moraeth will grace the sands of Western with eggs of her own. Will it be a healthy clutch? Will Mirkath prove himself on that regard? Will there this time be that oh-so coveted golden gleam among the mottled, creamy shells?
Current OOC News: We've a hatching looming on the horizon, with a tentative date set around the end of March or the beginning of April. Of course, this means we're looking for active, well-played Candidate characters to Impress those dragons to. As of yet, it is undecided whether or not there will be a queen egg in this clutch; this will be determined by the presence of a viable character for said queen to Impress to. If you are interested in Impressing to a gold, getting your Candidate in early and keeping her active will go a long way to impressing Staff.
With a leadership flight recently decided, there will likely be a shuffling of the Wings to accommodate changes in rank, which means we may have some positions open up. Now would be an excellent time to join as an adult rider, and there are an assortment of options for their origination, including one of the few who came from South Island Hold.
Current wanted characters:
- Candidates! Male Candidates are especially welcome.
- Adult dragonriders. We have a notable shortage of played adult riders, so any of this character type, particularly chromatics, would be welcome. We have a number of ranking positions open, including Wingseconds.
Canon: Moderate to high - women ride blue and rarely brown, no new colors.
Setting: Fifth Pass, Western Continent
