Mavros: The Next Chapter

Mavros: The Next Chapter
A loosely canon AU Pern RP.

Mavros is on its own. The other Weyrs have withdrawn all help from the fledgling Weyrhold after their refusal to allow a ‘proper’ Lord Holder to be installed. No supplies, no transfer riders, nothing. Many of the fishers have turned pirate in order to keep their home more adequately supplied and a recent agreement with Mirran will provide them with some few new transfers, but it’s hard to say if it will be enough. The Weyrhold is struggling to support itself, struggling to keep up its dragon numbers to fight Thread.

Mavros is soon to lose its eldest Gold, the imperial Zalmaranth. Her rider has passed on due to illness, though not before the Gold could rise and lay a glorious clutch of 19 eggs which hold not just one, but TWO Golds. A single month stands between the eggs and hatching day and Mavros is desperate for candidates, their Searchriders are out in full force, but few families are willing to send their children off to what they consider to be a ‘Rogue Weyr’. Talera of Gold Aerroth has been called to step in as Senior Weyrwoman In Waiting until such time as her Gold rises, which is expected to be in about three months time. The acting Weyrleader has called together a Council to make ruling decisions for the Weyr until Mavros's only mature Gold can rise and create a true Weyrleader pair.

Will you risk it all for an uncertain future and join Mavros in their struggle to survive independently?

We say ‘loosely canon’ because everything up until Dragonflight is most definitely canon, and White Ruth’s hatching is as well, but in our AU AIVAS was never discovered and Thread still falls. We have only the canon colors at Mavros (Gold, Bronze, Brown, Blue, Green, and White) and only Golds can clutch (No Green clutchers, sorry), but there are several new Weyrs and one in particular (Mirran Weyrhold) has its own rather odd culture while a certain few other Weyrs/Weyrholds from the canon series do not exist here.
