*DO NOT* create a character with a dragonrider honorific (The ' mark). You /must/ Impress a dragon to have that right. DO NOT create a character with a name ending in 'th'. Such names are reserved only for dragon names. Pern is a /medieval society/ and ALL names should reflect that fact.
The lag is low; there is 1 connected.
Description
After the death of Robinton, things took a rather morose turn. With such tragedy hanging over Landing, people gradually drew away from AIVAS and its knowledge. Pern never reaches the level of technology that the Colonists had originally set up. The Weyrs, having fulfilled the plan to erradicate Thread, fight out the rest of the Pass, but with the eventual death of F'lar and the greatly decreasing sizes of dragon clutches, the Weyrs only made a partial attempt to settle in the South at Honshu and Eastern Weyr. Over the next 680 turns the Weyrs diminish as the number of new dragons never exceeded the number of existing dragons, to the point where now in the present only two Weyrs are still open, the rest moving to Fort and Benden to make full sized Weyrs. The Holds spread out. Many minor Holds grew in size to the point where they are almost as large as the old major Holds. But the Red Star still hovers over the horizon, each turn drawing closer and closer. Rumors that the clutches at the Weyrs are growing in number as riders once again fly out to Search outside the Weyr and that Thread might fall again. Only time will tell...

Based upon Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern series and is set roughly 700 turns after her last book The Dolphins of Pern . Very roleplay-oriented (i.e. no hack-slash) and welcomes new players with open arms. [2]
Post AIVAS 1,800 turns after Lessa. [3]
