Canyon Weyr Rules
1)
No flaming of any kind.
2) Writers must be
18 or over due to some of the graphic nature of the writing.
3) In Canyon Weyr, the following people can Impress the following color dragons:
Gold: Heterosexual female
Bronze:
Heterosexual male
Brown: Heterosexual, or, very rarely,
bisexual male
Blue: Bisexual or homosexual male Please
note that females may impress blue, however this is extremely rare due to the time in which Canyon Weyr is set. All blue female
riders must obtain BoD approval before you may create them. A female blue rider will be rarer than a Gold firelizard!
Green: Homosexual male or heterosexual female.
4) Candidates *must* be between ages 12 - 22. Very rarely, an exception for older or younger *might*
be made at BoD discretion, but you need to have a very well-thought out reason for it! When writing young Candidates, please
do remember that if they Impress, they will not be able to join a Fighting Wing until they Turn 15 at the earliest. However,
Canyon Weyr will allow Candidates and Weyrlings to impress firelizards or have firelizards as pets. This is on the condition
that the firelizard is played regularly. Players who fail to play their firelizards on a regular basis may see the firelizard
in question listed for termination... again see the rules below pertaining to this situation with characters.
5) "Unofficial" Apprentices (like Robinton as a child) can be any age,
but be aware that for a child to be apprenticed early they have to show more than the normal amount of promise or possess
some rare ability. Under normal circumstances, apprentices start at 12 -14, journeymen are at least 18, and masters are at
least 30.
6) Posting is mostly round-robin style,
but full length solo or coposts are quite happily accepted. A round robin post must be at least five full sentences in length.
A solo or copost can be as long as you want it to be.
7)
Canyon Weyr and it's surrounding Holds and Halls are a dynamic setting where danger lurks at every turn. As such, the BoD
may inform you of the death of one of your characters. Please note that the BoD will limit this type of activity so that your
role play is exciting but not impeded. Highly active characters will be less likely to be selected for termination. You will
be responsible for designing your characters demise but a time frame will be provided for you to comply with the request.
If you fail to comply with the request within that time or have not asked for an extension of time in which to comply, a ranking
persona will be allotted to post your characters death instead. You may volunteer a character to die, however you will need
BoD approval before you do this. You may appeal the BoD decision to terminate your character, however sufficient reason to
keep your character alive will be required.
9) All
metallic dragons, firelizards and whers or ranking personas require BoD approval before they are created. At present you are
quite likely to be approved due to Canyon Weyrs newness, with exception of goldriders. The same can be said for new Cotholds,
Holds and Craft Halls.
10) There will be rare allowances for sport dragons (like Ruth), but they must be approved by
the BoD and the sheet must be exceptional.
11) Canyon Weyr does not use the word "flit". That is a pet peeve of mine.
They are "firelizards" or "lizards" .... period.
Leaving the Group
You may, at any time, decide to leave Canyon Weyr. If you adopted your personas, they revert back to
the adoptable page. If you created the persona yourself, you may do what you like with them. Kill them off, or transfer them,
whatever you want, but you must clear it with the BoD first.
Exceptions
There are always exceptions to every
thing, but you'd better have a darn good reason and it will be at the BoD's descretion!
