9.9 C to 18.4 C | 13.7 C to 24.5 C
Ista is heating up swiftly, and preparing for a rough summer - hopefully nothing like the one from a couple turns before with the wildfires! The rest of Northern Pern is warming upsomewhat slower, but with no less gusto as summer begins to creep into the sky, keeping the sun awake longer, warming the ledges of the weyrs. Rainstorms are sporadic, but keep the world well watered, despite the heat of the days.
The Red Star can be seen by those who choose to see it, causing no shortage of whispers that Thread will return - and just as much dismissal from those who do not believe. After all, it's been so long, surely it is no longer a threat! Weyrleaders are, regardless, beginning to put together wings in their Weyrs, if only to keep troublesome and bored riders busy.
Winter -3 - 2 C | 26 - 35 F
Fort is already home to snowfalls, though early in the month they fade away when the sun rises. As the month progresses, more snow stays on the ground, ending up with several feet of snow before the month is over. The areas around homes and populations has the snow shoveled away or trodden down. Icicles attached to Weyr ledges prove some danger and are routinely removed.
Ista Boundaries:
Winter, 9 - 21 C | 48 - 69 F
Generally warm enough to go about without a jacket on, Ista has low humidity but high chance of rain, generally in the form of vicious afternoon thunderstorms. The storms wash away any bite of heat the day had, and leave it feeling fresh for the night. The days are short, but grow bright quickly and the afternoons seem to be particularly short when heavy thunderstorms roll in and cover the sky.
Telgar Boundaries:
Winter, -5 - 0 C | 23 - 32 F
Bitterly cold, with icy winds constantly flowing down from the mountains. Freezing rain is almost constant; the sky always a murky grey and the ground slippery with slushy refrozen ice. The days are extremely short, with the nights dropping a good number below the daily average. Icicles attached to Weyr ledges prove a major danger, and are checked upon every day, with anything bigger than a fist being removed.
Summer 27 - 38 C | 80 - 100 F
Light breezes down from the mountains tot he North keep the temperature comfortable, even when the sun can bake an egg on the edge of a weyr. Sunburn is common.
Ista Boundaries:
Summer, 34 - 43 C | 93 - 110 F
A very dry, dusty heat. Little to no rain, causing more than some to worry about the drought not breaking and the rest of the Isle being at risk of fires. Many seek the depths of weyr, hold or hall during the midday and early afternoon heat.
Telgar Boundaries:
Summer, 26 - 35 C | 79 - 95 F
Muggy, sticky and generally just plain humid. Thunder storms are regular occurances, often happening in the early afternoon or evening, with heavy rainfall before drying off sometime in the night. Mornings are usually crisp, but warm up swiftly.
Ista Boundaries: Season, Low to High
Telgar Boundaries: Season, Low to High

North: Early Spring | South: Early Autumn
−1.9 C to 4.7 C | 20.0 C to 29.0
Spring has sprung, with the snow slowly melting in much of the North, creating mushy grounds and greyish, icy snow piles that are doing their best to melt. In comparison, Ista finds itself naturally warmer, (~10C / 50) and many people who can find rides are making their way to the Island to spend some time in warmth and sunshine, away from the lingering touch of winter.
Katila is beginning to cool down to more reasonable temperature, but is no less muggy and uncomfortable to those who are not used to the seasons. It is still a good place to escape to when seeking a warm day or a nice swim at the lake, though.
The Red Star can be seen by those who choose to see it, causing no shortage of whispers that Thread will return - and just as much dismissal from those who do not believe. After all, it's been so long, surely it is no longer a threat! Weyrleaders are, regardless, beginning to put together wings in their Weyrs, if only to keep troublesome and bored riders busy.

Winter has come slowly to the Northern lands of Pern, with more rain and cold winds than snow. As the month progresses, more and more snow will fall, with frequent blizzard-like storms towards the very end of the month. Telgar and Fort will in particular become burried under mountains of snow, while Ista is sunjected to frequent icy rainstorms, and heavy winds coming in from across the ocean.

Following the disastrous fires (sometime in around the 28th of Month 08), Ista Isle has found itself suddenly in the midst of constant rain; not enough to flood, but a steady, dreary downfall that seems to only take a time out for a couple of hours here and there, before coming back again. Its cast the entire sooty Isle into a sombre and depressed mood. Alongside the rain, the weather is muggy and while not hot, is not particularly cool, either.
The rest of Northern Pern is getting their usual weather, though they, too, have been called to action following the wildfires that savaged Ista. Many individuals who called Ista Island home have been relocated not just to Ista Weyr, Ista Hold or Sea Cliff Hold, but also to other areas of Pern, whether with family or friends.

17.4 to 25.5 C | 10.8 C to 23.2 C
Ista is still unseasonably warm - 37 to 45 C - has resulted in an incredibly dry summer, with little to no rain. This was climaxed by a dry thunderstorm, the results of which caused three fires to start across the Island on the 24.07.739 in the early morning hours. While the results of this are yet to be played out, the events will no doubt leave more than just the scarring of the land.

18.0 to 26.6 C | 10.2 C to 21.9 C
Ista is still unseasonably warm, with average weather being in the 37 to 45 C range, making it now a more than slightly undesirable escape for the rest of the Northern population from the more enjoyable early summer weather. There has been very little in the way of rain, though the coastal areas are no stranger to the salty wind. Ista's limited farmlands and fields are dry and dusty, with golden straw instead of grass where there is any growth at all.
Meanwhile, the rest of the Northern areas are still getting a lot of evening rain and the occasional thunderstorms, which cools down the populus and allows them to sleep easily without sweating their brains out like the Istans.

There has been very little in the way of rain, though the coastal areas are no stranger to the salty wind.
Meanwhile, the rest of the Northern areas are getting a lot of rain, thunderstorms, and cloudy days. Grass is growing, flowers flowering, and baby animals popping up all over the place! Yay spring!

North: Late Autumn | South: Late Spring
Autumn is coming to an end, with the days slowly becoming shorter still, with early nights and late mornings. The temperature is getting very cool, with jackets being more required, but it has yet to actually snow. Despite this, it is often raining and miserable.
The Southern contient is in full bloom, with flowers coming to life in the grasses and on the trees. The skies are bright blue with fluffy clouds, and occassional sunshowers bringing a dampness to the day. The nights are still crisp, but not cold. The ground is starting to dry up as water is absorbed by the blooming flora.
North: Mid Autumn | South: Mid Spring
Autumn is in full tilt, with the leaves a shocking array of orange and red, and more of them on the ground than on the trees. The skies are often a clear and crisp blue, with a cool breeze flowing, shifting the leaves and sending them scattering. Rain is not common, but when it does roll in the skies are dark like night come early, and thunderstorms are not uncommon, though they don't last for long and the amount of rain that falls isn't too heavy.

North: Start Autumn | South: Start Spring
Nothern regions are entering into Autumn, with the trees beginning to change to their reds and oranges, while the air is beginning to feel more crips. There are still more warm days than cool, and the nights are mostly warm enough for light bedding still. Rain has faded away and most days are clear and bright.
The Southern contient finds itself heading into spring, with rain and flowers vying for attention. The ground is often muddy and squishy, while the skies are either bright and blue, or overcast wtih fluffy clouds.
North: End Summer | South: End Winter
Summer is winding to an end in the Northern hemisphere, with the weather slowly cooling and the trees beginning to turn their leaves. The days are still long and bright, but the sun is beginning to lose some of its strength.
The coastal Weyrs are falling victim to coastal storms, strong winds and heavy rains with thunder and lightening.
The more inbound Weyrs and Holds find themselves drier, not getting nearly as much rain or storms, they find themselves on the end of a long drought.
North: Mid Summer | South: Mid Winter
Summer is in full spring in the Nothern hemisphere, with the bulk of each day being unbearbly hot, followed by vicious thunderstorms and heavy humidity in the evenings and at night.
The coastal areas are experiencing monsoon like weather, and spend a lot of their time locked away in Hold, Hall or Weyr.
The more inner locations find themselves faced with more dry heat during the day, and horrible humidity in the evening and at night while the thunderstorms rage.

This month’s riveting event is ‘Seas of Fun’, in honour of International Pirate’s Day! After all the drama with the fires, we expect that taking to the sea (or lake, river, pond, etc) would be a very relaxing way to spend some downtime for many dragonriders and Holderfolk alike!
In preparation for October, the even is “Memories of the Past”, which we hope will be a fun way to explore your character’s past, either in solo posts or threads, as inner monolog or as back posting! How you choose to partake is entirely up to you!

As a result, we will be looking for Wingleaders, Wingseconds, and of course Candidates for the clutches we have scheduled for this year!
Okay. So moving on! This month sees us (hopefully) wrapping up the Camp Kink event! Who doesn’t love an abundance of young adults exploring their sexuality without restraint?

With the end of December, our Christmas layout has gone back into hiding! You'll be able to use it again at the end of the year, when Christmas again rolls around. You can expect a new layout for the site in the near future.
We will also be awarding the HORRIFYING MOMENTS stamps to those who qualified for them, as well as the WORDS OF THE MONTH for November. We hope you enjoyed these Events, and you can expect more of them in the upcoming year!
This month we will also be focusing on the RP Records, and request you submit all your threads here so we can update the Timeline! As it says in the thread, the Timeline will be updated every month, in the first week. To help us maintain, be sure to submit your threads as soon as you open them!
This month we are doing a 'Words of the Month' event! You can choose your word/s as indicated in the thread, and may particpate with as many characters as you desire! This contest has no voting to earn stamps; you get a stamp just for participating! Enjoy!
Our next PC Clutch will be in the new year, so now is the pefect time to join with old candidates (how many clutches have they stood for now?!) and candidate hopefuls! Get those eager young men and women out there and grow them so we can match them with their perfect lifemate when the new year rolls around and one of our lovely golds throws a clutch on the Sands -- At this point in time, the Weyrs are sharing Candidates, so your Candidate can be Searched by any Weyr, and transfer to the one holding the PC clutch!
History is almost complete, and the profile has been re-coded. All new characters will need to go onto the new profile, but all old can keep their current! We'll begin advertising properly over the next couple of weeks, once the history has been completed, and probably after the weekend of the 8th and 9th, because that is when ThistleProse is having her birthday.
We officially have two layouts! You can post here with any issues you find, or request any changes!
If you find any bugs or issues, plese repot them here, and we will do our best to fix them in a timely manner.

Appearance
Eye Colour:
F'drel's eyes are a light blueish hazel, surrounded by long, dark eyelashes. He has a scar cutting through the arch of his left eyebrow, a result of a childhood accident.
Height:
6'4"
Hair Colour:
Short, dark brown hair that most definitely has a mind of its own, sticking up every which way. Conveniently, since his hair always looks like the wind has styled it, flying doesn't change his hair style preferences at all.
Build:
F'drel is fairly well built, having had to do manual labor from a young age and having continued to do so in order to care for his dragon.
General Description:
He's not the smiliest of people, generally keeping a neutral expression. Smiles from him are either really fake or genuine, depending on who he's speaking to. F'drel is capable of schooling his face and body language to show what he wants, not what he feels. He's picked up a few minor scars over the years due to working, as well as a more nasty one on his right arm from breaking it as a young teen. His hands are rough from work.
General Dressing Style:
As a drudge, Fendrel had no real say in what he wore, he either had house livery on nice occasions or cheap, well-worn clothing for the day to day. Now that he's a dragonrider, he's quite taken with creating a wardrobe he actually likes and looks nice.

Personality
Likes:
His Siblings: He and his older sister are very protective of their younger siblings. Leaving them to be a Candidate was hard, but F'drel figured maybe he could get his family to his Weyr if he became a proper dragonrider.
His Dragon: While F'drel is not exactly pleased at going from the bottom of the pecking order in the Hold to the bottom of the pecking order in the Weyr, he wouldn't give up Halomirth for anything. If he ever wishes he had a dragon of a different color, he always wishes it in the form of "I wish Miri was *color,*' not that he wishes for a different dragon.
Control: F'drel loves being able to be in control of himself and his life. He can't, most of the time, but he likes the moments that he knows control are his.

Strengths:
Efficient: When given as task, F'drel will do it, do it to the best of his ability, and do it quickly.
Tough: He's used to getting the short end of the stick, so F'drel knows how to keep going even when life kinda sucks.
Caring: F'drel can't help finding people to care about and feel protective over. It used to be his siblings, and now that he's a greenrider he's fiercely protective of other greenriders, especially younger ones.

Dislikes:
Nobles: Having grown up as a drudge for a Lord Holder's family, F'drel is very much not a fan of the elite and is generally intensely wary of them. This has grown to include the dragonrider hierarchy, and he's especially not fond of bronzes.
Using Servants: F'drel would much rather do things himself than leave them to servants, as he remembers what it is to be one. He understands the importance of a division of labor, but he will always go out of his way to leave as little work as possible for others (Though he's more okay with leaving work for dragonriders). In addition, he often has difficulty giving direct orders to his dragon.
Mind Games: People like to fuck with each other's heads far too much, and F'drel hates it. He hates being played, being used. Doesn't stop him from being good at them.

Flaws:
Obedient: Being raised as a servant, F'drel has had it trained into him since birth to go 'yessir, of course sir' whenever asked to do a task, and it is still his first reaction when asked to do something.
Insincere: F'drel will say what he thinks people want to hear, not necessarily the truth. Especially not when it concerns his own personal opinions.
Suspicious: Other people, especially those in positions of power, do not inherently have the best interests of others at heart, and F'drel rarely trusts their decisions.

Habits & Mannerisms:
F'drel does not help his hair not look like he just slept on it, and will nervously run his hands through his hair. General Personality:
F'drel is a friendly but somewhat withdrawn young man. How genuine he is towards people is inversely proportional to their rank, in that the lower someone's rank the more likely it is that F'drel will be open and honest with them. Higher rank individuals will hear and see what he thinks they want from him. He will be friendly towards most people above him, but if he feels can get away with being surly and rude, he will. Having a dragon has increased the frequency of the times he can get away with less politeness immensely. He fulfills the stereotype of bitchy, two-faced greenrider fairly well sometimes, which amuses him.He's taken to the more open lifestyle of the Weyr. While he wishes there was less hierarchy, it's not exactly the same as it was in the Hold, and he has decided he likes it better.

Important History:
718 AL & Birth: Fendrel is born the second child and first son of Mita, a drudge in the household of the Lord Holder of Nabol.719 AL & 1 Turn: Malea, Fendrel's first younger sibling is born. Mita is 'encouraged' not to have children for a few turns, as they are impacting her productivity. Fendrel and his sisters are increasingly left in the care of older drudges whose jobs allow them to monitor children.
720 AL & 2 Turns: Fendrel is a rather calm baby, not overly colicky or prone to fits and child watchers are always glad to have him around.
722 AL & 4 Turns: Ferra is born.
726 AL & 8 Turns: Another sister, Kale is born. Fendrel is deemed old enough to start working alongside the other drudges at simple tasks. His first job is in clothes washing.
729 AL & 11 Turns: Fendrel has gradually been allowed to do harder and more complicated tasks, and is expected to do more work. It's difficult, and Fendrel is somewhat put out by the fact that very little of his work benefits his own family much, and all of it goes to the Lord Holder and his family.
730 AL & 12 Turns: His younger sister Malea accidentally breaks a vase while cleaning it. Fendrel insists it was him who broke it, taking the blame for the incident. This starts a trend of Fendrel trying to take responsibility for his siblings and keeping them from being punished.
731 AL & 13 Turns: Mita dies. The Healer called in believes it is due to latent complications from her pregnancy of the turn before. The baby, Kitelan, becomes Kelikki's responsibility, though the rest of the siblings do what they can to help. Fendrel becomes even more protective of his siblings.
732 AL & 14 Turns: One of the Lord Holder's younger sons (21 turns) starts paying attention to Fendrel. He thinks it's a little weird, but doing tasks for the lordling is easier than some of the harder labor tasks he would have otherwise, so he shrugs it off.
After a while the Lordling starts getting a bit pushier with Fendrel and making more blatant advances. It makes Fendrel uncomfortable, but he doesn't think there's much he can do about it. He's seen plenty of occasions where drudges who are telling the truth are punished if a higher up tells a story to the contrary.
By the end of the turn, the Lordling has ceased to be subtle and Fendrel finds himself in no position to say no to him.
733-735 AL & 15-17 Turns: Fendrel's 'relationship' with the Lordling continues. If he makes any even slightly negative comments about the relationship or how the Lordling treats him, the Lordling makes suggestive comments about the positions and safety of Fendrel's siblings, effectively keeping Fendrel from straying. Fendrel starts to genuinely hate the other man, and his resentment towards people higher up in the hierarchy, which has been growing since childhood, cements into a quiet fury.
736 AL & 18 Turns: Towards the end of the turn, Fendrel is Searched by green Siolilth. The Lordling puts up a small fuss at Fendrel leaving, but can't really stop him without revealing too much, so Fendrel is allowed to leave. He worries the Lordling will take his displeasure out on his siblings, but he thinks that being a dragonrider will enable him to get his siblings out of their situation more easily.
737 AL & 19 Turns: Fendrel Impresses to green Halomirth in the early moths of the turn. He works hard in his classes as a Weyrling and with his dragon, used to hard labor from his childhood as a drudge and from determination that he gain enough status - however little that may be as a greenrider - that he can more easily bring his siblings to the Weyr once he's a full rider.
738 AL & 20 Turns: The summer brings with it graduation, and F'drel becomes a fully fledged dragonrider. He decides to wait until the first time Halomirth has Flown to get a better handle on how that will go before bringing his siblings to the Weyr to live as members of the Lower Caverns.
739 AL & 21 Turns:
Month 02 - Halomirth takes to the sky for the first time, and is caught by blue Zeianth
Month 04 - His siblings transfer from Nabol to serving Lord Jalazmar, youngest son of High Reaches, where they officially become servants instead of drudges.
Month 07 - F'drel is somehow roped into going on Casa's camping trip, where he does his best to be ignored. Instead, he meets R'dal, who becomes his closest friend within a matter of months (not a difficult feat, as he has few close friends).

Education
Details:
Fendrel received the general education, but only barely. He was not meant to have a job that required more than maybe reading a label or simple math, so no one ever bothered to teach him. His handwriting is horrendous, as is his spelling. He's been trying to fix the gap in his education now that he's a graduated rider and Wings haven't been formally assigned yet, so he has time. Despite his lack of formal education, F'drel is fairly intelligent. He deeply resented the assumption from most people that all drudges were stupid and had to be treated like idiots. Apparently if a servant can't read minds they're dumb, and F'drel hated it. He wasn't against using the assumption from time to time, and now uses the stereotypes of greenriders to similar effect, but that doesn't stop the words from chaffing.

Weyrlinghood
Solid dark green. Very chubby little weyrling.Halomirth
Adulthood
Green gets more variable, still very dark, but with varied mottling. Lighter patch on her throat. She has lost some of her chubbiness, but her neck and legs still seem a bit short for her body.Mindvoice
Boyish and cheerful. She has a bit of an obnoxious laugh. Personality
Where F'drel is often fake friendly, Halomirth is always truly friendly, assuming everyone is inherently good and not trying to hurt anyone and wants to get to know them better. She's often a bit stubborn in her insistence that she can be friends with anyone, and while her rider has tried to teach her that people don't always mean well, she always forgets it.Quirks
She likes popping between from right next to others, startling them. Halomirth gets great enjoyment out of it, and sometimes pops back a little too close to people as well (though F'drel is trying to break her of this habit, as it is genuinely dangerous). Likes:
Making friends: She takes to making friends enthusiastically. People she doesn't know are simply friends she hasn't made yet.
Nice smells: Halomirth pays a lot of attention to scent. When she finds one she likes, she tries to convince F'drel to add it to her hide oil to make it smell like that thing. Sometimes these things are kinda weird - like the grass from a particular field - and sometimes more conventional, like herbs or flowers.
Fish: Most dragons aren't overly fond of fish, but Halomirth quite enjoys it.
Dislikes:
Large Holds: There's just so many people and so many smells and she doesn't like to stay in them very long. F'drel has no problem accommodating this.
Watch-Whers: She doesn't hate them, the just feel Weird to her, and she prefers to avoid them when possible.
Being ignored: Halomirth doesn't mind when others aren't immediately her friend, but she gets sad when they don't even acknowledge her.
Strengths:
Genuine: Everything Halomirth says, you can believe. Even if it's something you know she can't do or accomplish, you know that, in the moment, she truly believes she can and will for you.
Bubbly: Halomirth is a very hyper dragon, always happy and enthusiastic.
Adaptive: When life decides to shake things up, Halomirth is ready for it, her positivity helping her deal with whatever the new situation is.
Flaws:
Impressionable: Halomirth is not nearly as shrewd as her rider, and will believe most anything told to her.
Impractical: She has a poor understanding of her own and other people's limits, as well as things like money or availability of resources.
Overimaginative: Halomirth can easily work herself into a tizzy predicting what might happen, sometimes very good possibilities, sometimes very bad ones. F'drel has mostly gotten used to Halomirth's panicked ramblings and picking apart what's actually true and what she just thinks will happen.
