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 The other Weyrs have withdrawn all help from the fledgling Weyrhold after their refusal to allow a ‘proper’ Lord Holder to be installed.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 has but one Gold, the young Zalmaranth, and she’s due to Rise any day now. From her maiden flight she will provide Mavros with their first clutch in over two turns and make a Weyrleader which the Weyrhold has not had in over a turn. With the prospect of the Gold Rising, Mavros is desperate for candidates and 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’.
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.
