*~Phoenix Ash Weyr~*
You don't know where you are, but all you can see are the twin moons floating ominously above your head. Shivering slightly in a cool breeze, you glance nervously about you, even though there isn't much to see. Rock surrounds you, and the ground disappears miles below your feet, which are balanced on a narrow path that winds around a cliff. You've heard rumors of a weyr high upon this mountain, a weyr that was abandoned long ago, and in which lives only a few wandering strangers with odd-coloured dragons that have made the weyr their home. There are also rumors of a clutch that has been laid in hopes of getting the weyr back on it's feet.
But rumors are only rumors. . . . right?
You keep pushing up the cliff, pulling the fringes of your cloak closer around your body to retain as much body heat as you can. The winter months have settled in, so the temperature is constantly dropping. Still, you press on, determined to get to your goal. And soon, you shall be rewarded.
As you round a particularly sharp corner, you find your objective sitting comfortably nestled into the cliff-face. Weather-worn and polished by the wind, the former Phoenix Weyr looks terribly inviting. That's when a great blue mass on top of the weyr catches your eye. It's a dragon! He seems to spot you exactly when you do him, and a loud bugle ripples through the air, freezing you on the spot. You can't seem to move, but your mind screams at you to run away. Instead, you stay rivited to the spot, and see a man coming towards you.
What do you do? Stay? Or turn and run away from possibly the last chance you have to impress a dragon?

Phoenix Weyr has recently been renamed and remade...The old group died off when nobody wanted to post, and it went dormant for seven straight months.
However, with motivation, the replacement manager decided to kick it back into action. So far this site is under heavy construction, and people who apply need to give a reason why they want to join - most of which will probably be approved. We are in desperate need of loyal and active members who have a lot of charisma and ideas to share.
Note that this is a very freelance Weyr. It is radically Alternate Universe - meaning odd dragon colors, different species of human (Vampires and the like aren't limited to Earth anymore...), and is in desperate need of interesting plotlines.
At one point in the old board of Phoenix Weyr, Pern was secretly linked to Earth. I'm not sure if that holds true anymore.
As the last surviving Weyr on Pern (it is AU), it is in desperate need for Candidates to Impress and upcoming clutch, for Crafters, Holders, and so on.
And for those who join...please help us advertise?
