Weyr Gossip
Don't believe everything you hear!
The kitchenfolk are talking. Weyrlingmaster B'kay has just been evicted from his weyr and placed in the shoddiest cavern Araelen has, all so that Penna and her Gold Plianth may occupy his previous large abode. Has Penna found the way to the Weyrleader's heart? Can she get him to do anything for a bit of redberry pie? Has this new goldrider designs to take over the Weyr?
The Weyrfolk are beginning to wonder about the exploits of their beloved leader. What was Weyrleader M'kel doing in the Lake with a drudge that left them both exhausted and collapsed on the beach?

Hatching Ground The steaming sands of the Hatching Ground are surrounded by stands carved into the stone for spectators. Above these, ringing the Ground, are the perches for the dragons in times of Hatchings. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Candidates' Quarters (1 sub-board) Separated into two sections, girls' and boys', the Candidates' Quarters consist of a long, stone chamber with neat rows of bunk beds. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Weyrlings' Barracks (1 sub-board) Similar to the Candidates' Quarters, the Barracks differ in that there are small hollows beside each bunk for the newly Impressed dragon to remain near its rider at all times. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Dragonriders' Weyrs (1 sub-board) These are the individual weyrs of the dragonriders after their graduation from weyrling status. The weyrs honeycomb the towering walls of Araelen Weyr's volcano crater. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Lower Caverns The Caverns include the kitchens, the living areas of the Lower Caverns workers, and the dining area for the entire Weyr. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Healing Cavern This Cavern, located on the Bowl's ground level, contains cots for use by patients in the event of an injury. A larger Cavern attached to the first and with its own entrance to the Bowl is set aside for dragons unable to access their own weyrs due to injury. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Beast Stables The caverns in which beasts not belonging in the Feeding Ground are housed, including personal runnerbeasts, pregnant beasts, etc. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
The Lake Located across from the Lower Caverns in the volcano's crater, centuries of rain collection and erosion have resulted in a pristine, crescent shaped lake. In times of heavy rainfall, the two points of the crescent meet, forming a small island of forested land in the centre of the lake. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Feeding Ground Located adjacent to the lake, the centuries of erosion have allowed for viable soil to develop. Grass has flourished and trees are growing strong. The herdbeasts are kept in this area with their own drinking pond by crude fences to prevent their wandering into the Lower Caverns or out of the Weyr. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
The Valley The only ground entrance to the Weyr is a tunnel wide enough for five herdbeasts to pass through and high enough for a dragon to easily walk through. This leads out from the volcano's crater to a lush valley landscape, which slopes gently down to a natural, harbour-like cove. On either side of this valley slope is the rugged jungle of the Weyr's island. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Dragon Tournaments (1 sub-board) This is an event only board in which dragons and riders will compete to earn prestige and Marks. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Personal Record Hides In this board, members can create threads for each of their characters to keep journals or notes on their experiences in the Weyr or elsewhere, as well as exciting encounters they may have had. *wink* Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Celos Sea Hold (1 sub-board) This Hold exists in one of the many coves along the Eastern shore of the Southern Continent. One end of the cove is a rocky promontory that juts out into the ocean, the other a sandy shoal that curves in a protective arc about the calm Harbour. The Hold itself is constructed of the abundant jungle wood that surrounds the cleared area. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Minor Holds In the Turns since the Southern Continent was settled, Holds have been established and blossomed across the land. Searches are conducted at these smaller Holds, and the citizens of Pern reside within. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Harper Hall Located on the edge of the Eastern Barrier Range, near to the Paradise River, this Hall spreads out at the base of a cliff. Inner chambers have been carved into the rough stone, while outer rooms have been constructed of wood. Those Harpers not assigned to Holds or Weyrs, from Masterharper of Pern to Apprentices, reside and train here. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Minor Halls and Camps Aside from the main Crafthalls of the Continent, minor Halls have been established at some minor and major Holds. These can include mining camps in the mountains. Searches are conducted in these places, as well. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai

Jungle The Southern Continent is known for its vast expanses of steaming jungles. Although the abundance of red fruit gives these jungles a welcoming appearance, the wherries and felines that may lurk within disagree. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
Beaches and Coves The infamous and numerous beaches and coves of the Southern Continent are frequented by all. They are a place for relaxation, recreation, communication with dolphins, or searches for fire lizard nests. Moderators: Master, Sitareh, M'kel, Shikai
