Discussion: On Dragon Wings

@junipersky @Tez @Pyrephox Can we fork this off into a discussion thread, please?

@KarmaBum YOU BET

Tez is faasssttt

I never read the books, but I got the idea that when the dragons are mating, the humans they’re bonded to want to do gay stuff. How far off am I?
-
@labsunlimited I read the first two books before I realized Pern wasn’t clicking with me, but as I remember it there’s this whole forced mating flight thing that can result in the riders having sex with people they don’t intend to.
That said, I can’t honestly remember a time when there wasn’t a Pern MU. It’s almost as ubiquitous in the hobby as a WoD MU is.

Pern, Star Wars, WoD, furry/sex. The four MUSH genres of the apocalypse.

@somasatori I’m 50/50 on whether L&L is the Unseen Fifth
or the honorable mention. -

I keep looking at Jeski every couple of weeks. I’ve forgotten more than I remember about Pern, I’m sure, and am more async than not buuuut… I will have to look again!

Come play! We’re comfortably loose with our Pern canon, and very async friendly, promise.

Someone explain pern to me in 1 sentence.

@Cobalt Sometimes a person has a special connection with a dragon and together as very best friends, they breathe fire at horrible worms from the sky.
Plus you get a free t-shirt that says: Dragons made me do gay stuff.

@Yam On a colonized planet, the descendants of the colonists bond with genetically engineered, psychic dragons to protect the planet by fighting all-consuming spores from space.
-
@Pyrephox I read this as “colorized planet” and was immediately more interested. Who colored the planet? Is that because of the dragons? How did they do it?
Alas.

I keep glancing here, and keep meaning to make a joke about how the address involves gaslighting, but then I don’t do it, so now you all get to see that train of thought.

Kizraeth clutches in late January; Coraneth in early March. That leaves plenty of time to establish a Candidate character and build up a bit of a story arch leading up to trying to impress a dragon of your very own. If you’re not confident on theme, imo going this route can be a smoother introduction.
Current plot threads involve the development of rival factions of dragonriders (PVE).

dragon riders but instead of being cool and fighting each other they are kind of like lawnmowers burning caustic braum hair out of the atmosphere iirc and also if the dragons have sex their riders have sex

@hellfrog So Eragon if it were simultaneously more and less interesting?

Not sure why I caught these strays in 2026 but I’ll just be in my lane having fun, dude.

Could get those comments spun off into Rough & Rowdy if people want to complain about Pern? Seems kinda sucky to slap on game gab. Not very constructive about this game in particular.
