Hatching Fun
Darkblue Saphireth's Hatching - Death Brings Three - is ongoing now. The first Hatching hosted by our wonderful Nicole. Three eggs hatch and shock the Stands.
Coming up are Shoki's Ice Temperanth's clutch of 11 and summerrain's White Angeth's clutch (size TBA, once the Flight ends). We're expecting the Ice Stone Hatching to occur in the neighborhood of Jan 13th, so mark your calendars~!
North and South
Lord Ser Ralt and the Lady Harra of Cliffside have been missing for almost 5 months now with no new clues or even rumors as to their whereabouts. Cliffside Hold has been impossibly unhelpful with the fires situation, unwilling to take in refugees under the pretense of no official decision, lack of organization and resources. The haphazard, as they would have the people believe, council seeks to appoint a new Lord, as Ser Ralt did not leave an heir. As the fires spread southward into Golden Flight's territory more and more families who have lost everything pour into the Weyr.
Character idea: Make a refuge | have an existing character's family be refugees
The Syndicate activities have increased lately. The prevelence of information leaks and threats is at an all time high. Southerners are nervous amid the already stressing fires. It seems no one has the additional energy to face them.
Character idea: Make a spy, double agent or get a character involved by blackmail and threats. Even wonderful people do terrible things when under duress. | Try to press the leadership into acting against the Syndicate. They must know more they aren't telling the Weyrfolk...right?
In the north, matters have once more decreased to a simmer, but Hedara's team is about to finish training, and once they do, the simmer might reach boiling point yet again.
Character idea: Have a character join up with Hedara's vigilantes to bring justice to the Extremists outside of the law
Challenge Threads
A new thing to try! Up now in the Events section is a serious toned Challenge Thread regarding the fires near RMW, Cliffside and especially Golden Flight. This thread has a set goal, duration, and set of outcomes. It is truly up to all of you to save the fields, families and food. Create the drama in addition to striving for the highest goal. This is the first challenge thread and any feedback is greatly appreciated and welcomed via PM.
Join the firefight now!
RP ideas: Dragons bringing water | Handlers maintaining firelines | LifeWing Riders treating the injured | Weyrfolk supporting the fire effort by preparing the water carrying devices (barrels, straps to carry them, any clever ideas you have), crafting medical supplies, organizing the refugees
Gossip Time
(Post thread summaries to your own threads below and receive 10 marks per summary.)
Weyrleaders Rilora and T'kar have a nasty fight in We Had a Quarrel. Anyone present at breakfast might know the reason (or twin reasons) why T'kar wishes for somebody to get him through this nightmare. Faranth only knows why Dalonia is going through with the pregnancy. Tread with care Weyrfolk, your leadership's tumultuous storm rages on.
Above the World - Turnover in Melisong is a place for characters from all RP locations to mingle (not that you can't regularly! Remember, by dragonback, you're only 8 seconds away from anywhere!) and try and relax as the new Turn rolls in. Not to mention there's a dancing contest with a flitt egg for the winners!
Mark System Notice - Important
It has come to our attention that there is a problem where people do not receive all of the marks for their posts. This problem is caused by posting multiple times in multiple tabs, without first refreshing the page so that the correct mark account value is displayed. In order to prevent this from happening, please either refresh the page or open a new tab/page immediately prior to posting (and post using this new/refreshed page).
Please note that we may not be able to grant marks lost due to this problem. As this is a plugin developed for any Proboards board it is not something the staff at RMW can fix.
Other OC Notices
It's that time of year again! Happy new year everyone! If you have a moment, take the time to update your characters' ages and any other updates. If you're character has not yet been added to a relevant list (Wings, Leadership, etc) please post on that thread in the Records section and Shoki or I would be happy to add your name to the ranks.
