Description All the World is a Blank Slate
And YOU'RE the One with the Pen

Let's introduce a little project of mine here. A little project I'm calling Project Weyr.

I love RPing Dragonriders of Pern, but it seems that whenever I find a site I like they start to trickle out of existance. Needless to say I'm a little tired of putting all the work into the relationships and the characters only to have it die just as things are starting to get fun. I figure I must not be the only one with this problem out there, right? I've come upon more than my fair share of Weyrs that have ceased to be, their members still hanging around in hopes that life might breathe back into the place if they just hold on a little longer.

So I say no more! I'm starting my own DRoP Weyr RP, A Weyr created by the members, for the members. It will be a place where everyone has some kind of say in how things are run. How canon will it be? How canon do the MEMBERS think it should be! I have tons of ideas for how this could work to make it a place people will want to stay.
It will be MORE than a Weyr, it will be a community, a place where we come together as fans of Anne McCaffrey's fantastic world. But before I can do all of that, I need to know that other people are interested.

So please, if you want to be a part of this, a part of my little Weyr, send me a PM. Let me know you want to help me out. Even if you've never read Dragonriders of Pern, if you're interested, don't be afraid! I am more than willing to help you understand how it works. I promise it'll be a place you'll be sure to enjoy.

*cough*
All that aside, I totally love the way this picture came out. For once I drew a Pernese dragon and I think it actually LOOKS like one. WOO!

That's probably fine. What can you tell me about the dragon? I can't promise anything before I have enough people to get the site up, but there's a good chance your dragon will be fine.

he's a dark blue dragon with light blue markings. He has a spot on his forehead and his wings have a kind of watery look along their edges. His name is Tarneth and his rider is a girl. her name's Malivia

I see absolutely no problems with that pair at all! If you're interested in bringing them over to this weyr just let me know. I'll be glad to send you the information I've been sending to everyone else.

Thank you so very much! I read your note, and while I wrote out a whole reply to it, I'm not 100% sure it sent. My computer went a little screwy there for a second, so if you didn't get a reply back from me, just let me know and I'll retype it and send it again.

Thank you so very much! Half of this was actually an accident because I was kind of doodling on it while I was on the phone with someone, lol.

If you make that site, I'd be indebted to you... for... a long while. 8D

This is a great picture and makes me envious of your anatomy. I simply love the dragon's face!

Ohhhh, thank you so much! I very much appreciate the fact that you enjoy the picture itself. It was a fun one to draw. ^^

If you're interested in the site I would be perfectly happy to send you the information I've been sending everyone else. It definitely looks like I'm going to have enough support to get this place off the ground, and I would be incredibly happy if you would join us.

*loves your like whoa* This project sounds amazing. Expect my PM in the near future.

Also, this is so preeeetty! I love the way the sun and the gold are so similar without being quite the same color, and also, that wing. That is one gorgeous wing. Trufax.

I actually had an idea like that just last week. And I love you for going ahead with it!

Alas, I don't think I have time for another RP, unless one of my current ones go under, probably the newest one. Sorry, I'd love to join and help out, but RL and time issues say I can't

DragonOfEclipse In reply to Emerald-Hearts [2011-04-26 00:19:25 +0000 UTC]

I've been thinkingabout it for a while, but it was only yesterday that I decided, The heck with it! I'm going to give this a shot!

It's perfectly alright really, I understand completely. Just the fact that people are interested is fantastic! Hopefully this will work out and you'll be more than welcome at any time to join in if you find the time to drop by. All you have to do is stop by and I'd be glad to give you a link.

I love your pic, and I loved the books when I read them, but it has been so long since then. When I find my copies and re-read them I'll dop you a PM letting you know.

DragonOfEclipse In reply to Kitsune100percent [2011-04-25 01:55:56 +0000 UTC]

Honestly, it's been a while since the last time I read the books too, but over the time since I started joining Pern RPs I've found a tonf of sites online that give me more information than I ever thought I would need, lol.

Your support is muchly appreciated though, and I am soooooooooo glad you like the pic!

Kitsune100percent In reply to DragonOfEclipse [2011-04-25 02:04:28 +0000 UTC]

Really? There are sites with info. I'll have to find those if I cant find my books.
I remember getting my first copy. It was one a school library got rid of. *I was in the 6th grade then*

And of I am glad to support it. In fact *drags mouse to right and clicks*

Oh, absolutely! if you know where to look, you can find more information on the world and workings of Pern than you ever thought existed!

Much obliged my good friend
