Beyond Threadfall is a semi-canon/non-canon Pern RP taking place in what would be the Twelfth Pass. It focuses on Southern Weyr, one of the few weyrs remaining on a post-AIVAS Pern.
AIVAS' plan went off seemingly without a hitch. The Red Star has now passed by twice since the dragonriders' fateful voyage to the Yokohama, and both times it never came close enough to drop deadly Thread. Slowly, the Pernese are adapting to the new understanding that they no longer need to fear the skies. Urban and agricultural centers are expanding, as the need to build into solid stone caverns is no longer an impediment. The rise of new Crafthalls has led to the slow adoption of new technology. And the dragonriders? They are now messengers, arbiters, and explorers. The hardy, independent dragonriders of Southern dedicate their lives to taming the still-barely-charted wilderness of the Southern Continent.
IC Plots/Info
- Gold Elith and brown Pyteth's Mythology clutch was wildly successful, even producing a queen: Black Tiamath, the first melano dragon in Pern's recorded history.
- A strange light has appeared in Pern's sky, aligned with the Dawn Sisters. While no starsmith can identify the foreign object, all are in concurrence: it is not the Red Star. But that still leaves the mystery of what it could be wide open.
- Junior Weyrwoman contest now open! Two adult goldriders available!
- Plenty of high-ranking character positions available: bronzeriders, Weyrharper, Weyrhealers
- Several Mythology clutch Weyrlings available for adoption!
- BT's admins have a long-term, unique, exciting metaplot in the works that has only just begun... No spoilers now, but suffice it to say: it's the end of Pern as we know it. And we feel fiiiine.
