Welcome to Sedona
Weyr, a Dragon Cyber-pet Adoption Center based on the Dragonriders of Pern by
Anne McCaffery.
It's also a sort of side-project of mine; my (eventual) goal
is to have a full roster of approximately 540 dragons, including 17 wings of 30
dragons each, plus the Queen's Wing and various side-jobs such as searchriders,
weyrharpers, weyrhealers and dragonhealers, etc. Not for any reason in
particular, just to see if I can do it, really (and to collect pretty dragons,
of course!). Many of the beginning dragons have been imported from my other
site, Darkling Dawn Dragonry,
which is not so strictly Pernese. I cannot guarantee that there will always
be clutches available or flights open, as it largely depends on peoples'
interest in it, but I'll see what I can do. A short history of the Weyr is
below:
A miscalculation by Aivas means that 200
turns after Thread was thought to be gone forever, the 10th Pass starts with the
dragons disorganized and vastly unprepared to fight Thread. New Weyrs are
popping up as everyone scrambles to prevent Thread from doing too much damage to
the planet. As one Weyr finds that they're stretched too thin defending too
large a territory, they decide it's time to found a new Weyr. Only problem is,
they have no queens to spare, and precious few fighters, for that matter. They
can get the Weyr started, but the dragons will have to come from somewhere else.
A young bronzerider named S'rey is one of the riders selected to build this
new Weyr, and while searching for riders to help, he stumbles onto Darkling
Dawn. They've had a few problems of their own with intelligent and deadly
predators called deingons poaching their civilians, but they have a thriving
dragon population, many of whom are descended from Pern, along with their
riders. Some of them decide they would rather live on their home planet and
agree to go back with S'rey, including no less than three queens!
There is
one other problem, however. It takes a lot of resources to build a Weyr, and the
only one who can afford to supply them is the Lord Holder of Sedona Hold, Tuan,
and he doesn't like new things such as bizarre colors or non-human entities; the
new Weyr cannot afford to get on his bad side, which means that non-human
riders, unbonded dragons, and most dragons of rare color or non-Pernese ancestry
will have to stay behind--or be willing to lie their pants off about it. What
Lord Tuan doesn't know won't hurt him!
S'rey's new allies give the new
Weyr--also called Sedona Weyr--a fighting chance, but there's still far too many
empty weyrs that need to be filled...

Aryth's clutch has hatched! The hatching story is here, and the pickup
page can be found here
. Hadeth
will be on
the sands soon; that will leave two flights still open, one of which is
a Weyrleadership flight.
