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:
Brown
Height:
5'10"
Hair Colour:
Dark Auburn, Short
Build:
Lean, tomboyish.
General Description:
Tall and lean, Cazan has a generally androgynous appearance accentuated by her short hair cut and her rather modest and easy enough to hide breasts. She has an athletic build from a combination of dedication to her craft and her inability to stay still for long. Her hands are rough though she tries to use balms to keep them from being too calloused. When she does put time into her appearance she can be rather feminine, but her chronic resting bitch face during those occasions tends to keep people away.General Dressing Style:
Cazan has always enjoyed masculine attire, in addition to helping her achieve her goals, it just always felt right. She enjoys pants, fine button up shirts, dress jackets, decorative scarves, and hats when she's dressing up for herself. Usually she can be found in work clothing; sturdy pants, a well made shirt, vest, well worn long leather gloves, a belt with smaller tools, wool cap, and a small scarf that she uses to mop up sweat or wipe her hands. She has glued hair to her face in the past when her brother refused to shave, but she makes him help with that (or more frequently just makes him shave). She also shaves her face to remove any peach fuzz and small mustache hairs that would further differentiate herself from her brother.
Cazan is capable of wearing a dress, owns at least one nice one for dinner parties, but doesn't enjoy it and is always distant and quiet when forced to wear one for social occasions. To help distance herself from her brother's appearance on those occasions she tends to make an effort to appear even more feminine with makeup, jewelry, and finely crafted dress gloves that she made herself her brother made for her.

Personality
Likes:
Freedom: Feeling in control of her own life.
Craftsmanship: Making things and the immense satisfaction and pride that brings.
Recognition: She adores the validation from receiving praise, but her favorite is when someone compliments her skills as herself and not as her brother.
Strengths:
Quick Thinking: She's adaptable and quick on her feet after a lot of practice pretending to be her brother and having to cover for him and fill in gaps. When trouble is brewing she's usually able to nimbly maneuver her way through it and keep herself together up until she's alone.
Independent: Even though she enjoys and desires validation from others she's fine doing her own thing and is able to appreciate her work on her own merits.
Self confident: She is willing to take calculated risks, and doesn't tend to focus on fear and uncertainties (except when it comes to her personal life).
Dislikes:
Stillness: Cazan hates holding still, there's so much she can be doing if she moves around, and if she's not moving she feels awkward and off balance.
Interruption: She dislikes distractions and being interrupted, when she's in a groove the last thing she wants is to leave before she's done. She will even forego sleep to finish something she's in the middle of.
Silly restrictions: Being told she cannot do something that she thinks she can do. It almost guarantees she will try to do it or at least think about how she could try and get away with it.
Flaws:
Workaholic: Cazan works to distract herself from everything, from how lonely she can be to how anxious she is about the thought of landing a husband and her life ending as she knows it. She doesn't know how to relax and feels lost and uncomfortable when she doesn't have a task to focus on.
Tunnel Vision: When she's focused she has a tendency to latch on and forget about other things going on around her. This happens to worries she fixates on and to tasks she's in the middle of. She frequently skips meals and has to snack at odd hours to make up for it if she's not pulled away from her work by someone at meal time.
Difficulty Delegating: If you want something done right you should do it yourself. Cazan gives herself so much extra work this way. She has difficulty trusting others to get stuff done to her satisfaction.
Proud: She has trouble asking for help or admitting when she's made a mistake in an area she feels she should be proficient in. Instead she tries to fix things on her own, or even scrapping a project and starting over.
Habits & Mannerisms:
Cazan cannot keep her hands still. When she's bored or thinking, she has a habit of spinning small tools across her fingers. When she doesn't have tools in hand she drums her fingers or picks up small objects without thinking to fiddle with them instead.General Personality:
Cazan has always been a tomboy with a self assured stubborn streak. She's determined and tenacious, clever enough to try and find unorthodox ways to achieve her goals, bold enough to give those plans a try, and sneaky enough to pull it off. She can get too caught up in her goals though, and is prone to tunnel vision, hyperfocusing on what she wants to the point that she forgets to take a break and relax and live a little. A workaholic as a result, she's abandoned thoughts of romance not because she isn't interested, but because she's more interested in her work for the moment.
She's friendly enough when she does manage to get her eyes off of work, and Cazan even has a habit of flirting with pretty girls while disguised as her brother to keep up appearances. If anything comes out of the flirting she just arranges a meeting time later and sends her brother out on a date. She enjoys feeling in control of her life, and while surprises and changes to her plans can irritate her, she is generally resilient and given more towards optimism than pessimism.

She's managed to get him through his apprenticeship and considers herself the real journeyman even if it's attached to his name.

Fort Weyr
Weyrlinghood
Upon Hatching, Malvayth has a sandy-gold hide, tinted slightly brown. The underside of her wings look like they were blasted with starlight, with some speckles looking almost white, while some areas are quite dark. The sprinkled starlight is especially visible when she flares her wings, and when learning to fly as a youngster before her hide changes. In build, she is similar to many of her siblings in that she is quite pudgy, with little rolls fo fat wrinkling along her sides and rippling with her movements. Her tail looks short, due to how fat it is, and her toes are pudgy with sharp little claws.
Malvayth
Adulthood
A growth spurt is what finally slims Malvayth down – prior to that, she has had little to no success with losing her weight she Hatched with – and she doesn’t hold back with her growth, topping out at several feet bigger than even her mother – one of the biggest golds currently on Pern. Her body becomes long and delicate, her features refining in a way that splits those that know her; those who knew her as a Hatchling tend to see her as too sharp and angled, while those who knew her only in adulthood see her as delicate and refined.
Her hide changes are just as startling; while her underbelly retains the pale colouration, it still fades, to a buttery yellow mixed with too much milk. Meanwhile, the rest of her hide is a rippling tangle of brilliant sunshine yellow and deep golden-bronzed tones. The shades seem to weave together, threading and creating waves of movement, even when she’s standing still. The moment she takes a step, though, or shifts her wings – and especially when flying – gives her a hazy, fuzzy look that can be more than a little trippy. Watching her move when drunk or high can become a fascinating obsession to some folks.Mindvoice
Malvayth’s voice begins and ends with innocence; its soft, delicate, and usually full of curiosity. However, she also has a tendency to shriek like a five-turn-old who was refused the sweet they simply cannot live without. When this happens, Malvayth’s voice is more like claws on chalkboard than the soft warmth she usually speaks with.Personality
Almost as if to balance her beauty and her size, Malvayth isn’t really a very smart dragon. She isn’t outright stupid but intelligence isn’t something her genetics gifted her with. Malvayth tends to take words at face value, and has no concept of sarcasm or intentions. She tends to better understand smaller words and simple phrases, and certainly communicates better with them herself. A sweet dragon, Malvayth gets upset when individuals pick on her for her lower intelligence, and feels bad that she has burdened her wonderful rider with a ‘dumb dragon’. She pouts a lot, and sulks, but is also easily entertained and happy to play with anyone – human, dragon or firelizard – and even creates fun games that she can play with playmates of various sizes.
For all her innocence, Malvayth can be mischievous, and will enjoy teasing Cazan – especially while she’s a fat little Hatchling and small enough to disrupt her rider’s plans – but no less when she grows up. She enjoys innocent pranks that Cazan will usually be able to see coming from a mile away – like a child that hides in plain sight before jumping out and shouting ‘raw!’; nonetheless, playing along with Malvayth will keep her crooning with delight, and bubbling with love and affection. The times that Cazan doesn’t play along, Malvayth often turns into the shrieking, foot stamping, outraged she-devil that the whole Weyr can hear, and the whole Weyr will know what a ‘terrible, terrible mind-mate’ Cazan is. Malvayth is not particularly creative with her insults, and throws them with all the five-minute venom of a child.
Grudges aren’t something that Malvayth keeps track of, however. She might hate someone for an hour or two – if they really upset her – but as soon as she’s distracted, she forgets it. She doesn’t understand a lot of what goes through Cazan’s head, but she always does her best to help her rider, even if all she can do is listen as Cazan tries to make sense of it, be that verbally or otherwise. She’s supportive and loving, and believes wholeheartedly that Cazan is the best person to ever step upon the grounds of Pern – or flies the skies on the back of a dragon. She is encouraging and often confused by the restrictions humans place upon themselves and one another. Her biggest victory will be her convincing Cazan that she should convert a well lit area of the weyr ledge to be a workshop, so that Malvayth can watch her work, and better keep her company.Quirks
Habits/Mannerisms: Malvayth likes to babble, and often it is completely unintelligible gibber-jabber.
Likes:
Stories: While Malvayth doesn’t have her mother’s imagination for story creation, she will nonetheless begin by listening in rapt attention as Aradissicath shares her made up stories (often taking them very seriously) before eventually trying her paw at making them up herself. Her favourite stars of the story are firelizards, as she views their them as little flickering creatures who can go anywhere and see anything.
Firelizards: They are her favorite little adventurers.
Dislikes:
Negative Emotions: Malvayth is very receptive to the emotions around her, taking them in and returning them tenfold into the space around her. Unfortunately, this means that when people close to her are feeling a lot of negative emotion, Malvayth absorbs it. It makes her anxious and uncomfortable, which has a strong tendency to make her angry, which in turn makes her shriek, shout and otherwise wreak havoc upon the minds of anyone within the local area.
Strengths:
Flying: Malvayth is a good filer, and it is something that makes her feel equal to her fellows in a way she doesn’t when she’s on the ground. Indeed, Malvayth is quite probably a better flier than the majority of her colour-mates, though getting anyone to admit that might be tough. She has an excellent ability to know how to move, when to move, and where to move, to maximise coverage of distance, with minimal expenditure of energy. She’s fantastic at judging distance and how the wind and weather will affect her. If asked, she wouldn’t have any idea what the asker was talking about, let alone how to explain it. It’s just natural to her.
Flaws:
Thin-Skinned: Quick to take offence, or view something as a slight, Malvayth is especially sensitive to insults. Cazan, herself, and her friends are all those that she gets upset about insults being lobbed at them – whether that insult is real, or imagined.Creator Credits
