Aore Weyr - Steampunk Pern - Harbinger - 12-19-2024 In the year 2525 After Landing, explorers in the Southern Continent unearthed the Artificial Intelligence Voice Address System left behind by their ancestors. The machine was dust-clogged and damaged but did not shut down without offering what little it could in the fight against Thread. First, it provided a preserved retrovirus, designed to strengthen dragons for their unending war. Secondly, it opened its technology database; the designs given were not at the level abandoned by the colonists, but certainly better than the archaic methods left to the Pernese at the time. Soon, improved dragons and steam power spread across Pern. In the following Interval, the Southern Continent was resettled, built with boiler-fed machines and supported by clockwork contraptions. Social reform followed, bringing back the equality known during the Landing years. Pern is different now, but one constant has remained the same: the Red Star still orbits Rukbat, and it is currently on a drop course. Soon, the Dragonriders of Pern will be tested again, this time with stronger dragons and better technology. Still, Thread doesn't care that there's been an industrial revolution, all its writhing filaments crave is the carbon-based molecules of all life. The year is now 2757 and Pern's newest Weyr, Aore, is taking a brief respite before returning to the ever-present drills and patrols required to prepare. The clock is ticking until the Red Star is spotted in the Eye Rock, heralding the start of the Tenth Pass. What We Offer:
