Sign Up Lemos Weyr: Dangers and Consquences of Thread

[Walnut]

When men first settled on Rukbat?s third world and called it Pern, they took very little notice of the stranger planet, swinging about its adopted erratic orbit. For two generations no thought was given to the red star, until the path of the wanderer brought it close to its stepsister at perihelion. Then spore life, which grew thickly on the red star?s surface spun off into space and bridged the gap to Pern. The spores fell as thin threads, devouring anything organic and seeked to establish burrows in the warm earth which would cause more voracious threads.

Humans started to work together to make the Northern Continent of Pern inhabitable, this included the breeding of a highly specialized variety of life-forms called dragons and they long thought the dangerous thread, risking their lives and their future?s to protect their fellows.

It has been recorded in song and written word that Thread was indeed destroyed by these Dragons and it looked like the threat was lifted forever. But given anything a belief that it has been destroyed and it will come back. Thread is streaming through the lands of Pern, burning and wreaking everything it can. This Thread has evolved from its counter part and it dazzles in the night skies with purples and reds. This is the sort of threat that cannot be overlooked by anyone, and Lemos Weyr is preparing itself for the battle with the new Thread.

Bio: Truele was abandoned by her real parents when she was a little over three years old, so she has no recollection of who they are or were. She was found by chance by the old Harper of Lemos Weyr and was taken back to the Weyr for her own safety.

She grew up in the Weyr with the help of her adoptive father and mother and learned many of the songs that were sung. The old Harper died when she was sixteen but he said that she was his true daughter and would live forever on in his heart. Shortly after that Truele started helping with the children in the Weyr and also managed to impress two firelizards. She works hard and helps wherever she can, and just sometimes daydreams of a different place.

Okay GardianStorm you're in ^_^ thanks for reminding me about there being more that one Weyrwoman I completely forgot.

[Rhys Mayiessen]

[color=indigo]Well I don't know if there are more then one Weyrwomen in one Weyr but they do have more than one golddragon rider. I remember two in the same Weyr in one of the books...and one lost her dragon...damn I forget her name.

Name: Falicia

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Hair Colour: A light brown with golden higlights

Eye Colour: A mix of green, brown, and blue....basically hazel

Postion: Gold Rider...if permitted

Dragons Name: Alatariel

Firelizards:
Gold-Shayleigh
Blue-Dralegar
Bronze-Elegaith

Description: Her skin is fair, which means its usually always white, and if in the sun for more than 5 hours, will burn. She's normal in height, about 5 foot 7 and is of slender build

Personality: She's usually shy, and has no problem letting Torlea lead the Weyr as Weyrwoman. Her dragon has not been flown yet, Alatariel hasn't gone in heat yet. She hasn't been a dragonrider for long, not even for a turn, because she was picked later than usual. She fights Thread along side everyone else, thrilling in the danger and excitment.

Haha I hope that's okay...if its not, I'll change it later. This will be fun![/color]
