Final Haven Weyr

Change. Who would have thought that such a simple word could cause such catastrophic events? Such disdain for the new and different that even the dragons themselves resisted the possibility that something could be unusual and still be acceptable? Prejudice like this existed even before humans left the blue Earth for the untamed world of Pern. It existed while they established themselves on this backwater planet and lost their histories to the Sands and their Draconic inhabitants. And after that strange, half gold, half green dragon hatched upon Fort Weyr’s sands, matured, rose, and even clutched before her untimely death…
Any form of acceptance seemed to die with her.
The single egg she laid hatched into the largest dragon on Pern… the first of her kind, but not the last. The massive, deep violet dragonet impressed in the most peculiar way… through song. Hers sang upon his approach, his voice rising in tandem with all the dragonets on the sands and the dragons in the Weyr. The false queen had come.
And with her, she brought change.
Ten turns of her life were spent on the ground, never rising, never doing more than helping Hers find his way in life. But then, when she finally took to the skies, her voice and the voice of her Bonded rising as she scaled the thermals above… to be captured by the current Weyrleader’s Bronze. The Golden Queen rose soon after, and when that bronze refused to take to the air in pursuit… things went terribly awry. Riots broke out against the Siren, beginning with the Senior Gold attacking the singing beast, and ending with their flight. The pair fled, taking with them twenty riders of various shades, sympathetic to their plight…
And Final Haven was born.
300 turns later, the Siren and her brood are living and surviving in the valley they now call their home, bordered by red stone mountains and vicious desert terrain... but are they forgotten? Something is making the Whers antsy… has the age old fear of change, of prejudice and old rivalries begun to rear its ugly head once more?
Will you be one to show new acceptance? Or will you show the prejudice of ages?
This is the Final Haven.
- We have several pre-made slots available, Dragon and Wher alike, as well as many Crafter and Holder positions for the player tired of making just candidates!

Current Events:
- Senior Siren Queen Tulinalith has risen and clutched twelve eggs. After four turns of nothing from this massive beauty, the shock of seeing both a Siren egg and a Gold egg on the sands runs high... Wait... is that a second Gold egg? I think Tulinalith's rider just fainted.
