Delta Weyr: A World Of Adventure (***)

[misscricket]

Welcome to Delta Weyr!

This is an Alternate Ninth Pass game, set at Delta Weyr, and with a strong emphasis on character development and character relationships.

It is a brand new game, heading for an opening on April 1st 2015! Roles wide open!

Premise

The 8th Interval was an unprecedented time of peace and prosperity for Pern. No Earthquakes struck, no plagues ravaged and no thread fell for 400 turns. The Holds and Weyrs had never been more prosperous, and without any conflict the population boomed. So much so that as the 9th Pass of Thread drew near the Weyrs and Holds realised that they were dangerously over populated. It was less of a concern for the Weyrs, they knew that in a decade or so when thread fell again their population would be reduced. It was a natural by-product of facing such a dangerous foe. But the overcrowding of the Holds was of far greater concern. They all knew that the closer quarters there were, the more likely there would be of an outbreak of catastrophic proportions.

So they worked together, all the Weyrs, all the Holds and all the Crafts, to begin work on a new Weyr and Holds to begin expansion Southwards. Now 10 turns before Thread is due to Fall across Pern once more, Delta Weyr is ready to be officially opened.

The Game has launched!

With almost 20 characters already approved and in play, Delta has gotten off to a great start!

There is an in game celebration, held on the day of arrival, and everyone is getting into the swing of things. There are a few altercations, a few investigations...and just generally all round good fun.

So come and join the friendly crew at Delta Weyr. We're a relaxed bunch who just enjoy writing.

So Delta's first Hatching went off without a hitch, and now the attention of Pern turns to another huge event, the Dragonrider Games.

The Games happen every two turns and involve testing the various skills of all dragonriders with prizes for winners. There's also bragging rights for the Weyr at the top of the medal tally.

Unfortunately the Games often are marred with accidents and deaths

How will this fledgling Weyr compete against the might of the original six?

So almost 2 years in the Game is running strong!

The First Weyrling class suffered canonical loss levels, losing 4 of their classmates during the turns of Weyrlinghood. Now they are almost graduated and there are two more classes in their fledgling months.

In January we will be having a monsoon hit the coastal holds, and the Dragonriders will be drafted for disaster relief. Tensions will spiral and there will be long term diplomatic effects on the game, to be added to the games canon.

Later in the year the dragonrider games return, with their high casualty rates, and Delta welcomes two clutches born on the same day, and destined to be rivals.

Join us! We have an eager and highly plotty player base but are always excited to greet new players!

June Update

The Hurricane devastated the coast, leaving some to become heros, injured others, and made inter-Hold/Weyr relations tense. The ramifications are still playing out, and will for the forseeable future.

The Dragonrider Games will return in August. The Weyrs compete against one another for the Second time since Delta's opening. Last time, there were nasty allegations of cheating, and fingers were pointed all around. What dramas will unfold this time around!

The Weyrwoman's Gold is due to Rise in September for a Rivals Clutch. All the Candidates who Impress will have a rival among their number...and the dragons will also have their own dynamics.

Join us for fun discussions and plotting on the Delta AIM group, there's always chat and plotting happening in there, and we're always excited for new people.

We hope to See you soon at Delta Weyr!
