|  | | | | | | | | | | | | | “Those abominations came from the sky -- thousands of them -- devouring man, animal, and dragon alike.” “We hadn’t predicted how our beasts would react to this new atmosphere. They were starving. We lost control.”“There was no place to hide. Fighting them was futile.” “As we feasted upon these creatures and their beasts, they were horrified. Are they not driven as we are to survive?”“I’ll never forget that day... It was the first of many where we would have to fight for our lives.” “They’re a hostile species. Approaching them is pointless; they only want to fight...”Pern was a haven found after decades of search. Here was a world with a new species to interact with, new languages and customs to discover: a home upon which they could settle.
The abominations forced the Pernese to move to the Eastern part of the Northern continent to escape the destruction that they left in their wake. They are the current menace that the Pernese must defeat. ------------------------------------------- About Us:
- Estonei is a fairly new site with a casual outlook on activity.
- We have a fluid-plot concept that allows members to influence events and plots either by IC character actions or OoC suggestions and ideas.
- Members are free to create Mini Events for each other, which can comprise of anything from eavesdropping NPCs to alien dragon attacks to food fights.
- Estonei’s admin are willing to drop Events into threads if requested, which tend to have repercussions beyond the thread.
- Yearly to sometimes twice a year hatchings with dragons made how you want them
- Non-sexuality based impressions
- Hatchings are focused on personality, and not on colour
- Chatbox activities, and games
- The ability to play the regular Weyr characters (except wherhandlers and whers, though we do plan on bringing them in) as well as Vyfairen, Vyfairen dragon and rider pairs, or simply the Vyfairen creatures
What’s Happening:
- Estonei’s last Hatching resulted in a riot, severing communication between Hold and Weyr.
- With an incompetent Weyrwoman and Weyrleader (nonexistent), riders are realizing that the current Weyr-system no longer works. A new movement is pressing for power that a council of dragonriders be chosen by merit to run the Weyr.
- There are whispers in the Weyr of riders preparing an oversea expedition to find land where the Holds don’t have jurisdiction.
- Alien dragons have been found in the Weyrlake, attacking Weyrlings and Candidates.
- In the Holds, an anti-Weyr movement is starting due to the Weyrwoman’s Queen attacking a human.
- In the alien settlements, an expedition is being planned to encourage human-Vyfairen contact.
- The aliens are looking to kidnap some Pernese to further their understanding of them.
- A fire lizard has been spotted along the Southern beach by a Vyfairen, which will begin the introduction of fire lizards.
- OoC, the members of Estonei are beginning to explore the concept of the Vyfairen.
Upcoming Events:
- RP-a-Thon will be held July 17th, starting at 11 EST. Everyone is welcome to join in the faster paced threads.
- A fire lizard clutch with the Vyfairen.
- Kidnappings -- Pernese kidnapping Pernese, Vyfairen kidnapping Pernese
- Hostage Holding -- Pernese trapping a Vyfairen
- Xaitu appearing in the Weyr
- A dragon clutch sometime in December-January (Oh so close! x3)
- Whatever road the plots take us!
- OoC, we have a scavenger hunt semi-planned, trivia nights, Eskerne says, and potentially other activities!
- Wherever the road takes us!
