The Northern Weyrs

Setting | Rules | Hatching Guide | Discord

Telgar Weyr is in decline. In the months following the coup against the Senior Weyrwoman, the Masterharper of Pern has withdrawn his harpers from the Weyr, and many Lords are sending poor tithes in protest. But there is finally a spark of hope in the form of promises finally kept. In the wake of Weyrleader B'ren's death at the hands of rioters, an election has been held to decide his replacement for the rest of the Turn. The result? A'ro of Garnet Senath has become the second female Weyrleader in recent times, and the first garnetriding Weyrleader ever. There are calls for this open voting system to decide next Turn's Weyrleader as well, but only time will tell if garnets, blues, and greens will continue to have such opportunities in the future.

Ista Weyr continues to enjoy relative peace this Turn, only continuing to battle poor weather Threadfalls. Ties with Ista Hold have strengthened with the hatching of the Weyr's newest Queen, Solindath, who has Impressed the Lord Holder's niece. The hunts for the surviving wherlet butchers have decreased in the last Turn, an acceptance that they will never be found permeating the Weyr. There are those insistent on finding the criminals and bringing them to justice, but will they ever succeed?

And of course, there is the mystery of the white dragonkin. Harpers and dragonhealers and amateur researchers alike clamor for chances to study Braukinith, Zavask, and the various white firelizards that have been cropping up across the continent.

Be you dragonrider, wherhandler, or weyrfolk, opportunities abound on the Northern Weyrs. We are a Sixth Pass Pern AU set shortly after the legendary events of the Great Plague. With monthly events, dragon and wher Hatchings, two rival Weyrs to explore, and slice-of-life plots, there is a bit of something for everyone. Come swing by our Discord and say hello!
