Info:

We’re a canon-structured PBeM Weyr (only canon colors, men Impress all colors but gold, women can Impress green/blue) set at the very beginning of an alternate 9th Pass where Lessa never went back in time to bring the other Weyrs forward, thus the other Weyrs were never abandoned in the first place.

We are set at Ista Weyr, and with a strong emphasis on character development, character relationships and political machinations.

History:

During the Long Interval, Ista Weyr gradually shifted into a culture of isolationism, taking great pride in their ability to provide for themselves as the rest of the Weyrs began to struggle due to lack of Holder support when it began to look as if Thread would never return. However, when the Pass did come, Ista flew the first ‘Fall in rough weather conditions and took heavy casualties. Now, Ista has been forced to accept help from the rest of the Weyrs of Pern just to remain at bare fighting strength, and it’s anything but a smooth transition for the proud weyrfolk and the ragtag rejects the other Weyrs were willing to spare in their direst moment.

Additional Comments:

We are a game with plenty of openings of all types right now, as well as a Weyrleadership flight in progress, and subsequent hatching, to happen sometime in the near-ish future. Promotions are based on IC politics, for a sense of realism — any bronzerider has the chance of becoming Weyrleader, and once in office you can have him promote/demote his wingleaders as he sees fit, and they can promote/demote their wingseconds in turn. Just beware what friends and enemies he makes, because he might not win that Weyrleadership next time around…

A Outsider Weyrleader has come to power and for the first time the Istans are tasting payback...

And it's not sweet.

Trouble is brewing so come join us at ISTA REFORGED!

The Outsider Weyrleader's clutch has hatched but his hold on power is slipping. A coup is being planned, while the Weyrwoman desperately tries to find a way to keep everything from falling apart. M'drasen's supporters rally around him while the Weyr seethes with political unrest. And while a clutch laid by their new Outsider gold sits on the Hatching sands.

OOC notes
- Adoptable baby dragons from the Avatar (Avatar the last airbender and Legend of Korra) series are available!
- Wingleader Positions open.
- Calling political powerplayers be they Pro Istan, Pro Outsider or Pro M'drasen

The Clutch currently on the sands has a fun twist for the writers of the game. When they hatch, the writers will vote to see which baby dragon goes to which candidate. The mods will vote too...but only as players. This time impression is decided by YOU.
