Quote:
It’s all the little stuff that is causing you problems! One minute your airspace is clear, another minute you find it full of Thread. Where is your cover!? If you’re a bronze or brown rider, you can’t help but feel that the smaller colors aren’t doing their jobs in trying to keep your dragon safe. If you’re a white, green, or blue rider, you almost start to suspect the larger color you’re covering is just using you as some meat shield and not bothering to flame like they should. Whether it’s actually true, or paranoia from all the stress, you can feel your irritation levels rise. Aren’t you supposed to be on a team and work together? Ugh! Damage -3 HP.


Thread could build up fast! It wasn't large clumps, thankfully, but D'rok couldn't help but shoot a dark thought out that while he and Khazariath had been doing their due diligence and flaming every clump in their airspace while keeping a headknob out for any orders from Z'von to pass on, clearly someone else hadn't!

He'd kick himself mentally for it the moment it passed.

No, I need to be more mindful of our airspace. Are you alright? he asked the bronze, who sent him back a wave of reassurance before moving on to catch the next clump. Stay alive, stay invaluable. We'll not fall out of the sky this day. D'rok wouldn't jinx it.

This is horrible. Thread is a lot more potent than you expected. While it started off relatively quiet, the wind gusts so high up are a lot stronger than you expected.

If you’re a brown whose adult size is 34’ or larger or a bronze, you’ll fight against the wind but your strength and stamina allow you to pull through. You're able to play a bit of heroics and even manage to flame some Thread from one of your struggling fellows. Save Quote a wingmate and save them from damage!


They'd practiced flying, sure, but they'd never been surrounded by so many dragons so high up - not even up in the highest of ranks! Khazariath was a strong dragon, even if he was particularly delicate for a bronze, and fought past it. There was still a lot of flame in the bronze and he was ready to put it to good use.

So far, so good - but what felt like turns hadn't even been an hour yet. There was no reason to get ahead of themselves yet.

Quote:
4. You're suddenly having a moment of panic. This is real. This is too real. You are now face-to-face with the deadly menace that has killed so many. The silver strands wind and twist and reach out for you, and you suddenly find yourself filled with doubt and worry. Can you do this? Why are you up here? What about all those that failed? How can you do this for the rest of your life -- a life that could well be cut short!?! Thankfully, while you are having a moments panic, your dragon seems to know what to do--especially when the lurch to the side and dive to flame down a few patches of Thread. While this doesn't really calm you, and you're still sweating bullets beneath that helmet, you do begin to focus more on sweeping up the Thread. [rolled 1 time]

Destrieth banked sharply, just missing a large clump of Thread, and T'roi found himself staring up close and personal with the silver menace as they whipped past it. Suddenly the weyrling bronzerider was filled with a sense of panic. This wasn't something that only appeared in songs and stories -- this was REAL, dangerously so. He looked at the relatively mild Threadscore on Destrieth's foreleg, his blood running cold. If that had been any worse...

His heart was pounding now as the fear and panic began to spiral out of control. He could die doing this! Or worse, Destrieth could die and he'd be completely alone in the world, horribly and utterly alone, the subject of quiet pity and hushed whispers. Why had he agreed to do this?

Destrieth bugled beneath him, chasing the Thread that had come so close and charring it with a vengeance. Mine, I need more firestone! That snapped T'roi out of his panic; instinctively he reached into the firestone bag and fed a chunk to his bronze lifemate. His heart was still pounding and he was sweating now, but he could carry on. He had to, for the sake of Pern!

Quote:
Firestone run! A weyrlings primary purpose, after all. Roll 1 D100. Evens are successful tosses that make their mark. Odds are botched tosses. It is assumed you make a successful throw afterwards but your pride is wounded. Additional flavor text is as as follows:


Another call for firestone - I've found them. Let's go. Khazariath sent the image along to D'rok, allowing the young man to focus on it before he pressed his dragon between, trying to not focus on how terrifying it was to actually make such a tight leap when everybody was moving.

Maybe that's why he botched the first toss he made, biting his lower lip in frustration before he made the next toss - this time much more successfully, though D'rok noted the way the rider had to twist to catch it. Hopefully they didn't wrench anything.

The errand done, it was time to drop back to the Queen's Wing.

It seemed they'd returned just in time at that. Khazariath spotted Vardoth veering a touch too hard into Arwainth's airspace, just as he noticed the clump of Thread nearby. With a hard flap of his wings he pushed forward, flaming down the offending clump to ash before getting clear himself.

You're clear, Arwainth, move freely! he bid.

7. This is horrible. Thread is a lot more potent than you expected. While it started off relatively quiet, the wind gusts so high up are a lot stronger than you expected.

If you’re a green whose adult size is 24’ or larger, blue, or brown 33’ or under, you do find yourself struggling through the stronger gusts but are able to fight it. Unfortunately, as you fight against the wind, you either find Thread blowing right into you or strain your muscles against the fight. You’re able to evade most of the damage, but it’s still a struggle. Damage: -3 HP.


Mikkeluth was startled as the wind suddenly picked up. He struggled and fought to stay in formation but got pushed out. In the process he strained his wing muscle and pouted to Ar'twa. Ar'twa sent comforting waves back.

After all their runs to delivering firestone, Ch'el was eager to get fully into the fight. Vardoth was just as eager, and had every hope his wingmates would be successful. With a keen eye, the blue dragon bugled warning to one of his clutchmates--hoping to save them from some rogue Thread headed their way!

Once again, the blue dragon trumpeted warning to one of his beloved clutchmates! This was what fighting Thread was all about--if they weren't saving the men and women in the Holds and Halls below, they were looking out for one another. Ch'el couldn't help but be proud. This was what dragonriding was all about!

Ka'ia was feeling a little better now, although the constant stress of danger still played at his nerves--the expectations placed upon him felt like they were pressing in around him all at once, but Argamath was so sure that they'd be alright. How could he doubt him?
You can't. he added, crunching down on a fresh piece of firestone. That's precisely why I'm the one telling you so.

Now that he'd had more stone, the Bronze was back to keeping watch, scanning his classmates throughout the formation just in case. If anything went wrong, he'd be ready.

Quote:
5-6. Your adrenaline is pumping and you feel fit to fight! Whatever fears or worries you have, you’re absolutely ready to take the world by storm. Your dragon wheels and dives, and you wind up successfully flaming some strands. Of course, you also find yourself suddenly dangling in some mighty precarious positions as your dragon avoids getting smacked by a tangle of Thread. The straps you so valiantly worked on are the only thing keeping you from plummeting to your death. Let’s hope Thread doesn’t latch onto those thick leathers… and if they do, that your backup security straps work! Thankfully, as the fight continues, you focus on what’s important--flaming down Thread. If brown or bronze, you play a bit of hero. Knowing your dragon should be able to take a hit, you can Self-Sacrifice. Quote a wingmate and take their damage instead. While it may hurt you, it also means you were able to save the day.

T'roi quickly got back into the game, adrenaline coursing through him now instead of panic. Destrieth suddenly executed a roll to avoid being scored again, and the bronzerider found himself dangling upside down briefly by his straps. Once more he was glad he took the time to inspect them before flying today. As they righted themselves, the bronze weyrling flamed another clump of Thread. That was what was important, T'roi nodded to himself: flaming Thread.

Things had been going well, and Vardoth was feeling confident. The blue dragon was chasing Thread, flaming it down, veering, wheeling, diving, and rising up to meet the Enemy. But Ch'el found it hard to keep in mind where they were, and keeping his mind clear to make the proper jump. Unfortunately, a botched jump Between had him way off course.

Vardoth squealed in surprise, trying hard to veer away from green Arwainth. This wasn't where they were supposed to be!

As Destrieth soared and banked pursuing Thread, T'roi found himself horrified by how strong and chaotic the winds were at this altitude. It not only blew and gusted hard, it whipped Thread around in unpredictable ways, making it har to flame.

T'roi suddenly felt a mighty gust blast into Destrieth -- but being a big bronze, he was luckily able to fight the wind and only would up a little off course. Destrieth gave an angry roar and flamed the first available Thread easily.

Ka'ia saw it first, but Argamath took action faster--his rider didn't even need to speak before he breathed more flame, catching the silver strands in a burst of light and heat that saw it reduced to little more than cinders. A grin spread across Ka'ia's face as his Bronze bellowed his momentary victory, savoring the feeling of a job well done.
