Welcome to Vaioa,

a desert triumvirate of Hold, Weyr, and Mine. Thread's return and bandit raiding brought strife between weyr and hold, but the bandits' recent defeat has returned the region to an uneasy peace. Now, a shipwreck on a forgotten continent and the decision to settle this rediscovered land has opened up a world of opportunity to Vaioa, if only they can handle the dangers.

AIVAS did its job. In fact, the job was done so well that Thread was no longer a threat to Pern, and a craft some distance away managed to hear the final call. From there things happened quickly, the ship landing, the Antar meeting Pern. From that moment, nothing was the same.

The beautiful Antar were fascinated by the dragons, loved the beautiful flits, and enjoyed the simple company of the Pernese. However, they would return home, some ten turns later. Those that Impressed dragons stayed, or those that loved the draconic beings too much to live without them. However many holders and crafters decided to go with the Antar, wanting to learn more of what there was beyond what they knew. A large step for so many, it ended in tragedy.

The Antarian ship, Evernity, had not been off of Pernese soil for more than a few moments before the unthinkable happened. An explosion filled the air, angry red coloring filling the skies. The ship that carried so many lives had crashed into the Red Star. Those who were left on Pern, Pernese and Antar alike, mourned the loss. But life was forced to continue.

A few turns after the Accident, Thread fell once more, taking the planet by surprise. Many died. And this first 'Fall since the Accident, since Avais, made the Dragonriders realize that there were far too few people spread out about the planet, with an abundance of Dragonriders and a lack of Crafters and Holders.

Hundreds of turns later, the effects of the Accident are still being felt, though there are many more lives to fill the land of Pern once more. A new hope has been placed in the western islands, a chain known as the Kindred Islands. A group of Dragonriders left the overflowing Southern Weyr to make a new home for themselves.

Aphelion Weyr was built upon the largest of the islands, Sillion Island. In a few turns, holds were built up around the Weyr, knowing that the land there would be safe. And here they prospered. Holds and Weyrs alike, both striving to bring back the crafts the way they had been. A few Halls had been built up about the Kindred Chain.

However, grief overcomes Aphelion time and time again, as their beloved golden dragons seem to have a curse over them. So long a chain of bad luck, not a single golden queen able to live out a full life so far in the Weyr, they lay all their hope in Analei and her golden Adrainarlyth, the queen only a few turns old.








Non-canon, with a wide variety of colors.
We have several pre-made slots available, dragon and wher.
A continual, on-going Plot arc, lots of excitement for everyone!

Open and running Contests, including Plot, Advertising, and Egg Guessing! Have an idea for an interesting plot item? Throw it in, and we may well use it!

Aphelion Weyr also sports a Plot-Member, strictly playing the other side of all plots, creating mass chaos, mayhem, death, and mischief! Nothing is ever boring with Darkness Rising around! Beware!


Events thus far:

A monstrous weyrling-munching watersnake is plaguing the Islands! Though badly injured and half blind from its epic battle with Sr. Queen Adrainarlyth, it is back yet again. Who will it try to eat now?

A starship Leviathan has crashed on the Island, infested with growing thread spores! The threat was neutralized, but now there is still the crew.

The Landers have been moved to the Weyr for safekeeping and to be watched carefully. Yet they have strange antics, and know very little about the Pernese culture. Several pods are showing promise, will there be more aliens to come?

**Alien characters are open for creation by Members!
**Alien Races open for creation by Members with detailed species biographies

The pass has started and Thread has fallen! The first Fall was disastrous, despite all the timely training from Old Timer Whiterider B'nard. Many dragons and riders were badly wounded and will need time to heal before they will ever fly again. Thankfully, the Landers apparently have technology fit to help out! How will the next Fall go?

Northern Weyr has kicked out all of their non-traditional colored dragons, making it the only strictly-canon colored Weyr on Pern!

Tempest of Aero Queen Eleth has been murdered shortly after her dragons eggs have hatched! But the question is, who committed the murder?? Drudge Perales is blamed, but not everyone is convinced it was he who did the dirty deed!

After T'kor of Celestial Oskirth returned from a diplomatic mission to Northern Weyr, barely surviving capture and torture, Aphelion Weyr is madder than a hornet's nest!

Pirates have spirited away with all three classes of Aphelion's Weyrlings and two of Ista's classes!! After months of being missing, the Weyrlings are tracked to the Southern Continent when Lander Sran pulls the memories from the Water Snake when it returned to Aphelion from following the laden boats. A rogue Queen and all her Riders are confronted by wings from Aphelion, Ista, and Clydek Weyrs, wanting the Weyrlings back, but things do not go well! A rogue Bronze attacks Lander Rodegnar in the undiplomatic fray that ensues, aiming to kill the alien. Solar Intanaith defends his Lander rider by slaying the Bronze, thereby starting the War where dragons fight dragons!




Upcoming Events:

Celebratory Gather!

Yellow Queen Murth is fixing to Rise! Pay heed, mid- and low-ranking males, this is your chance to shine!

Golden Lydelask is near her next run! With more chasers from the Weyr, who shall be the next to sire her clutch?

Sr Gold Adrainarlyth will be rising shortly after Yellow Murth, who will be Aphelion's new Weyrleader?

Many flitter flights and non-queen flights!

And of course, many many more plots items!
